Monday evening's final program of the Cambridge Society for Early Music seemed to suffer from a paralysis of over-refinement. While the music wanted to skip up the aisles of Sanders Theater, or in its serene moments, stretch out on its back and smile up at the ceiling, most of the performers held on to it with a mortal fear of spontaneity. Thus two sonatas by Bach and two by Mozart were unduly tame in a generally competent, but uninspired performance...
...suits, the erect little man who flew into Washington last week sometimes looked like a bad 'un out of a foreign-intrigue movie. But Chung Hee Park, 44, the South Korean leader who normally wears the olive drab uniform of a four-star general, had little reason to smile, and he was keeping his military trappings out of sight for good purpose.

He is the little ploy next door, and the vast delight of How to Succeed is in watching this studiously naive charming cub cheetah knock the spots off a pack of ravenous yes-men. After each victory Morse turns to the audience with a collaborative expression...
