...politician who worked hard, if without special distinction, and waited his turn. As he insists on informing people on every street corner, he is "not pretty" ? a useful attribute, he feels, in his war with Lindsay and the Beautiful Peo ple.

All the apparatus of bells, pink slips, tags, and signing in for parietals makes it a Special Occasion every time a boy comes, when everyone would be happier if it could be Just Dropping By. Girls are supposed to yell "Man on" when they bring their visitors upstairs and put a sign on the door after they have evacuated their roommate.
