Tigar has a good deal of help, chiefly from the women. Like many of Shaw's women, the two female cabinet members--Amy Sue Allen and Phyllis Ward--are clearer thinkers than the men. Miss Allen, as the strait-laced Lysistrata, and Miss Ward, the giggly Amanda, are both very good. And Norma Levin, as Magnus' grand mistress Orinthia, plays her scene with Tigar magnificently...
After 14 hours of deliberation, it took less than three minutes for Courtroom Clerk Mrs. Sue Richmond to declare seven men guilty of a conspiracy that began when Meridian's White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan voted to "eliminate" Schwerner for running a Negro community center and culminated when the lynch mob bulldozed three bullet-stitched corpses into an earthen dam. One of the men convicted was Neshoba County Chief Deputy Sheriff Cecil Price, 29, who set up the killings by arresting the young activist for speeding; another was Samuel H.

Perhaps as worthwhile as any other achievement is the fact that the new constitution is only 23,000 words long -v. 47,000 in the old one.

The University could be placed in a very embarrassing and costly legal position if the family of a student convicted of drug offense should decide to sue Harvard after it was learned that the University did not take action against the student when it knew he was using drugs...
Scott spiels and deals like a 19th century bunco artist out of Texas Guinan by W. C. Fields, yet incongruously wheels a shiny red convertible around like a hell driver. His partner, mooning around Sue Lyon's earthy smile, is a love-struck leftover from turn-of-the-century melodrama, yet speaks the language of the contemporary soldier. Like the cars its heroes steal and riotously wreck, the script starts strong but plots its own collision course, and eventually piles up in a harmless heap of miscellaneous parts that no longer mesh. The viewer, who begins by sympathizing with...
