When a legion of doctors gathered in Chicago last week to swelter through the annual convention of the American Medical Association, they had not long to wait for the news that interested them-and their patients-the most. How is the Salk polio vaccine working...
...playback, to get everything in playing order again. The Lady recording, on the other hand, contains all the songs but little of the dramatic action with which to recreate Bernard Shaw's famed Pygmalion (on which the show is based).

Phil does, and night after furtive night the two make hi-infidelity music together. Inwardly tormented. Phil confesses his faithlessness to Vinca, begging her with newborn masculine vanity not to commit suicide for love of him "either now or later." No death wisher, Vinca...
