...first, murderously lovely scene of Don Giovanni in a Budapest recital. Grove can't remember if he took the part of the footman Leporello (who beseeches, "Potessi almeno di qua partir!" [I wish I could escape!]) or the blackguard Don Giovanni (who bellows, "Misiero! attendi se vuio morir!" [Wretch, stay if you would die!]) in the performance. He took the Don's advice...

...what about supervision? The service is so afraid of drill sergeants engaging in sexual improprieties with recruits that the sergeants essentially are under orders to stay away from mixed-gender barracks at night. That, said an Army inspector general's report, opens "a potential window for trainee-trainee sexual misconduct." Indeed, until now the Army's preoccupation had been the behavior of its sergeants, to the point where local commanders at Fort Leonard Wood had ordered the doors to sergeants' offices taken down as well.

...McCaugheys are in for. I hope a few more generous folks will give the McCaugheys some very important things: free counseling when they are stressed out and overwhelmed and some weekend-getaway packages for just the two of them, so that they can spend time alone together and stay connected. The best gift for any child is a healthy and strong marriage shared by two loving parents. DIANNE NITZAHN Sherman Oaks, Calif...
