...Ellis Rabb's loyal counsellor Camillo, Richard Waring's King Polixenes, and Earle Hyman's rogue Autolycus are all superlative portrayals. These three actors are the finest classical speakers in the company, and they all are ever careful about how they use their bodies. Autolycus, an ingratiatingly light-fingered jack-of-no-trades, is a wonderful creation without a counterpart elsewhere in literature. And Hyman, in and out of disguise as well as in and out of other people's pockets, makes the most of him, with his funny figure-4 stances, his weatherbeaten hat and purple beard...

Waxing rhapsodic at a farewell party for retiring Cabinet Secretary Maxwell Rabb, Presidential Hopeful Senator John Kennedy managed to add his own "po'r li'l me" touch: "Max has done a magnificent job for the underprivileged, for the little man, for the minority group.

...bigotry which is as old as time--anti-Semitism. Wang becomes perceptibly agitated when the subject is brought up. His disclaimers are pathetic and contradictory. For near the surface of his quarrel with modern America is the recurrent theme--"Communism is a Jewish movement. . . . Talmudic filth. . . . Ike Eisenhower, Max Rabb, Col.

...away something like 90% of his estimated $200 million fortune; of cerebral thrombosis; in Houston. Texas-born of poor parents, Cullen left the third grade to work in a candy factory, dabbled in cotton and real estate, then (1930) as a wildcatter, struck deep into the 500-million-barrel Rabb's Ridge oil field, 50 miles from Houston. His method: to take wells others had given up, and drill deeper. After his son and heir was killed in an oil-field accident, Roy Cullen could not give his money away fast enough.
