...papers, Glikes came off as a sap, a sweet guy who shared a few tender moments with Kearns until Goodwin swept onto the scene and left his nose out of joint. Kearns and Goodwin weren't so flattered by the newspapers' stage directions, but they both stressed Glikes's ingenuous attachment as a real wrench in the editorial works while Kearns had been with Basic...
...Suez city, the Red Sea terminus of the great waterway, workers swarmed over docks and piers that had been empty for years. Buoys were being assembled, and pilot ships recaulked and overhauled. In the freshly painted warehouses, piles of new, sweet-smelling hemp rope rose like giant becalmed cobras in spirals to the ceilings. Canal pilots, the skilled men who guide ships through the narrow canal, were flocking back from all over the world.

...there have been few groups as popular or durable as the Beach Boys and Chicago. Between them they have sold over 65 million records and survived the popularity of scores of psychedelic, protest and glitter groups.

The logical extension of all this is happening this weekend as Smith...
...same time, leave us dissatisfied. This is the primary problem with senior Peter Lawson Jones's play. The Family Line. We know all of his characters through years of exposure: the garrulous old bartender who never forgets a customer's face or drink; a feisty, evil-tempered whore; a sweet, naive Southern girl, who came to the North to find a slightly better life; the malevolent hustler; the rising young black attorney. They are all charming characters, given to relaxed and easy banter that flows rapidly and naturally, but they all perch precariously on a tenuous line between reality...
