...Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding (TIME, Nov. 9, 1962), Gover locked up a vacuum-packed college sophomore with a pretty Negro prostitute for the weekend, and wound up proving not only that the girl was far nicer than the boy but that Gover is a comic writer of some talent.

...worldly and the clever, it is supposed. But any serious social or theological point is hopelessly compromised by Leary's relentless facetiousness, extracting what fun is available in copes, albs, chasubles, incense and the osseous relics of saints with humorous names.
