After nearly a year of intensive interparty bickering, Nikita Khrushchev finally ordered into motion the machinery that he hopes will rally assistance to his side in Moscow's ideological quarrel with Red China. He invited 25 Red delegations to Moscow on Dec. 15 to lay the groundwork for a full-scale summit meeting of the world's 90-odd Communist parties sometime in 1965. Nikita had hoped to convene his sub-summit this fall, but the recalcitrance of his Eastern European satellites-notably Poland and Rumania-forced him to delay.

Paul Price plays a properly effeminate Daddy opposite Mrs. Lane, but his gestures too often seem forced. I have a similar quarrel with Harriet Roger's Grandma. Wriggling, swaying, and stooping after a while become obvious devices, but still Mrs. Roger has an excellent sense of timing, and her Grandma is thoroughly likable. Jean Comstock turns in a creditable performance as Mrs. Barker. Alexander Pertzoff's set is obviously the one Albee...
