...another girl turned her over to juvenile police as "ungovernable." Even parents who consider themselves liberals are likely to quail. "My mother is a typical American clandestine bigot," says a New York girl whose family brought her up to be color blind-until she brought home her black suitor...
...terms precise./Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affectation,/Figures pedantical." And there are hundreds of puns, many be-labored mercilessly. How many of today's theatregoers relish extended puns on long-obsolete terms for a male deer of the second, third, and fourth year? Or puns that require the knowledge that 'suitor' was pronounced 'shooter' and that 'parson,' 'person,' and 'pierce' were homophones?

But the best explanation, as it often is with Barry Goldwater, is to take him at face value. He did not like what Fact's editors said about...
...Gama, are splendidly familiar. The marshal chorus, sometimes seen as a patrol of bobbies, sometimes as a well-buckled line of officers consists of the three sons of King Gama, Neil Fairbairn, William Baker and Ted Rau: wonderful as a trio of bass clarinets. The expected Friends of the Suitor are played with tolerable alacrity by John B. McKean and David Evitts. As for the suitor himself, Hilarion, his name is, nothing more need be said than that Danius Turek is filling an accustomed role with acustomed accomplishment, to render virtue as assonance...
