...Dallas Symphony season. Rosy did not care for the conductor, Walter Hendl, "whose continuance on our podium was in doubt as late as September." Even to readers unaware that Rosenfield himself had spread the rumor of Hendl's departure, the review was a tipoff. If Rosy has his way-and he usually does-Hendl's "continuance on the podium" was indeed in doubt...

...Caesar, another Ides of March was ahead, though this time the main conspirator looked more like Fanny Farmer than Cassius. She is a serious Midwestern schoolmarm, with a bent for poetry, baking cakes, and puttering in a garden. But if Miss Lenore Geweke (pronounced gave-a-key) has her way-and she well might-Latin beginners all over the U.S. will no longer fight their way through Caesar's trim, tight prose...

Lacking Garbo's peculiar, dreamlike power to enchant, she has in great abundance an asset Garbo never had: earthy sexuality...

...last week the evidence piled up that the armchair strategists, not the Navy, were behind the times-for the Navy has turned the corner while its critics still call for the corner to be turned. A profound reorganization of the Navy high command is under way-and the men coming up are airmen. Navy thinking recognizes clearly that sea power is in transition again, a transition as great and as clearly marked as that of a century ago, when steam revolutionized blue-water warfare. Pearl Harbor ended an epoch in naval history-an end to which the sinking of H.M.S...
