...jugglers, trained dogs and 15 clowns perform their acts right in the gaming room. And if that isn't enough distraction, there is also a carnival-style sideshow with dart games, a coin toss and an electronic shooting gallery for the kiddies.

Ringmaster Amory, who killed society, has now set about celebrities, and when in doubt on what to say, he has dropped back and punned. Marlon Brando is "the all-time tempest in a T-shirt." Tommy Manville is "an altar-ego." Eva Gabor is "strictly from Hungary." Alfred Hitchcock is the "star of staged...
...sign of an inferior comedian; some of the best comedians of the modern era have gotten along brilliantly by saying dull things in a witty way. Yet one suspects that if Sahl had pulled out a few more of the stops, he could have come up with a much spicier performance--one which would have shocked some people, and would have been a good deal more interesting...
