Kosher Kitty Kelly. Because Kitty Kelly kept company with Mr. Rosen while her friend Rosie Feinbaum went with Pat O'Reilly, a policeman disguised as a milkman, Jew-Irish vaudeville nifties known to everyone who has ever eaten a peanut were served up between the singing of such numbers as Cuddle Up to Me and the delivery of brief but maudlin orations in behalf of race tolerance for the entertainment of an audience that could not but be conscious that, at another theatre only two doors away, leered, as it has for many a long year, a great yellow...

College questionnaires usually reveal some 20 to 40% of near-graduates who are "undecided." Author Toland, instructor at St. Paul's School (Concord, N.
