Such attacks, often made in sermons published the next day as full-page ads in the student newspaper, led last year's whimsically sardonic senior class to name Halton as their favorite comedian, and the man "least likely to send his son to Princeton." But the administration was not amused, asked the Diocese of Trenton to recall its chastising chaplain. The request was denied...
...Parade was back (in stunning color for the 200,000 color-set owners), with a bevy of new performers led by young, moist-eyed Jill Corey, whose vocal renderings come with a lush, built-in sob.

Metal Fatigue. The years pass; the people age as if dipped in a Max Factor makeup kit; and Author Caldwell has ample opportunity to punctuate her chapters with page-long diatribes in favor of God, the Fourth of July, the U.S. Constitution ("I worry only about the Amendments"), and against Satan, Communism, the graduated income...
