With nary a peep from Pop - Arizona's Republican Senator Barry Goldwater -Peggy said that after a few years at Washington, D.C.'s Mount Vernon Junior Col lege, she would like to spend a year trying the wind-blown life on an Israeli kibbutz (collective farm). Barry Jr. said that if the U.S. Air Force does not accept him, he might join the Peace Corps, which his father once warned would attract "a bunch of beatniks who wouldn't work" but has since praised...
Bunions & Scars. At a house party in Fiedler's masterpiece of fictional illness, Nude Croquet, the middle-aged guests decide to shuck their clothes and play croquet in the buff. In the peep show that follows, the readers see "bulges and creases and broken veins, bunions and scars and grizzled hair . . . Leonard, vaguely hermaphroditic, pudgy and white; Eva, her cross falling just where her pancake makeup gave way to the slightly pimpled pallor of her skin; Achsa, tallow-yellow and without breasts; Beatie, marked with the red griddle of her corseting and verging on shapelessness; Marvin, sallow and unmuscled...

Rumors to the contrary notwithstanding. Liaisons is not a peep show-women are seen naked in two scenes, but then not much of them is actually seen. What is truly shocking in this picture has nothing to do with sex. It has to do with evil. The two main characters seem to be seducing people, but are actually destroying them. They...
Suggested (though hardly inspired) by Victor Herbert's 1903 operetta, in which Mother Goose was overstuffed with theatrical goodies, Disney's nursery crhymes involve Tom Piper (Tommy Sands), Mary Contrary (Annette), Boy Blue, Bo Peep, Willie Winkie, Simple Simon, Jack and Jill, and Mother Goose herself, along with some ringers called Roderigo, Gonzorgo, Barnaby (Ray Bolger) and the Toymaker (Ed Wynn). Tom and Mary, the story goes, are about to be married, but that naughty old Barnaby, wielding a wicked snickersneer, does his worst to louse up the proceedings...
