...modern violin score, get Spivakovsky. Temperamentally, that was fine for the fiddler, but to programmers and booking agents too much modern music is not good business. Tossy Spivakovsky learned that there was such a thing as an unbalanced portfolio, successfully set out to rid himself of the modernist tag...
Islands of Inactivity. In Van Dusen's day at Princeton (it was also F. Scott Fitzgerald's day), the contemptuous tag for fellows like Pit was apt to be "Christ-er."

From his pen came another pamphlet, plaintively crying that the label "antiSemitic" was nothing but a smear aimed at people who are genuine antiCommunists. It certainly was not a tag that could possibly apply to good old John Beaty. "I have no feelings except feelings of friendship," said he, "for pro-American Jews...
