...women are not so satisfactory. Deborah Fortson is lovely as Cordelia and moves well in the part, but she does not always speak to full effectiveness. Cordelia, at any rate, the vessel of all love and virtue, may be a more difficult role than Lear. Her sisters Goneril and Regan, Madelon Hambro and Emily Levine, are excellent bitches but bad actresses.

This Cordelia does not emanate sufficient love...
...story of the Tigers is still sadder; the team that was to give the Yankees their toughest competition has collapsed altogether. The good pitchers are no longer good: Jim Bunning, an All-Star last year, is 1-5; Frank Lary is lost to the club; Phil Regan is 2-4. The Tigers, now barely ahead of Washington for ninth place, have a very unpromising season ahead of them if the pitchers don't start coming around...
