...Charles production is worth seeing just to witness the performance of Olympia Dukakis as the step-daughter. Her Mediterranean face captures beautifully the confused horror of her relationship with her step-father. Better than any of the other actors, she is able to lose herself in a memory, ignoring the astonished eyes of both the rehearsal cast and the audience. Above all, she has amazing control over her body; her stiff shivers in the hat shop red-light scene convey all the repulsiveness of her step-father's shameless sexuality...
...lead was played by John Goldmark, 46, a Harvard law graduate with a prosperous Okanogan Valley wheat, beef and quarter-horse ranch he bought after getting out of the Navy in 1945. He had been handily elected three times to the state legislature in Olympia, where he rose to chairman of the house ways and means committee.

...missionary outposts overseas, and as chief primate of the communion, keeps close watch on the pulse of all its daughter provinces.

True enough. But in an age when even serious authors treat the sexual act in terms of a case history or social protest (and the Olympia Press's professional pornographers are driven to exploit De Sadean whips, chains and intricate multiple interlacings to keep ahead of the uncensored press), Fanny Hill's straightforward heterosexuality must come as a shock. None of her escapades, for instance, are as unsavory as the AC-DC boy-meets-boy encounters of James Baldwin's Another Country, nor are they as grubbily explicit as the climactic sexual passage in Updike...
...kids came to the University Saturday for a day of just plain fun. Boat rides on the Charles, free lunch at PBH, movies at Lowell Lecture Hall, tours of the CRIMSON and a visit with the CRIMSON's pet mouse, Andrew, highlighlighted a day which also included an Olympia at Soldiers Field, a trip to the top of Holyoke Center, and swimming...
