...orchestra's malevolence is especially unfortunate in light of the show's score, which is a good one. But, since the singers are so fine, the damage is not as bad as it might be. Carol Simon, as Lilly, the spinster school teacher, has the best musical material of the evening-two ballads ("We're Home" and "If You Promise Me a Rose") in which she expresses her domestic hopes for her ne'er-do-well would-be beau Sid.

The American Bar Association has also attacked the Murphy amendment as "oppressive interference with the freedom of the lawyer and the citizen...

Amexco has become a force in the mutual-fund business. Last year it took over the Commonwealth Group of four funds, and this spring it started two more, including an "offshore" fund for foreigners. The acquisition of W. H. Morton & Co. and Equitable Securities has given Amexco a strong position in stock and bond underwriting. The company is a major factor in international currency transactions.
