...inspired by last year's summer sensation, the topless bathing suit. The suit died on the beaches, but California restaurateurs saw other possibilities. Soon patrons sitting down to lunch at many a Los Angeles restaurant were apt to look up from their menu to discover a waitress wearing nothing above the waist. San Francisco's flagging nightclubs along North Beach went topless with enthusiasm, with more emphasis on wiggly performers. Some of the topless establishments are dilapidated dives where the girls are as easy to smuggle home as the ashtrays. But others are remarkably respectable, including some private...
Teddy was neither awed nor swayed. Wearing a navy-blue suit with a PT-boat tie clasp, and leaning on a silver-headed cane, he arose at the front-row desk next to Mansfield's, which he had appropriated for the occasion, and speaking from notes, defended the first major item of legislation he had ever managed on the floor.

Since couples neither touch nor even look at each other, all the shyness some men and women have about dancing?clammy hands, missing a beat, stepping on feet, etc.?is removed and, as one club owner says, "Everybody goes...
Triumph--triumph of the individual, triumph of ingenuity, triumph for the Dark Suit Rebellion. On the other hand, however, from the point of view of the administration, rescued was the letter of the law. But how might the law be manipulated when a gangling young tutor, participating in the regatta of 1858 knotted a blood-red handkerchief about his head? That color became the color of Harvard College, and that athlete Harvard's most distinguished president...
