Truman's first job was to introduce the seven Democratic presidential possibles, and he plainly wore his heart on his sleeve. He breezed lightly over California's Governor Edmund ("Pat") Brown ("a man to be reckoned with''), New Jersey's Governor Bob Meyner ("in the spotlight of public interest"), and Michigan's Governor G. Mennen ("Soapy") Williams ("in the forefront of enlightened social legislation"). Minnesota's Senator Hubert Humphrey was "one of the forward-looking thinkers in our ranks"; Adlai Stevenson, chairman of the evening, was "an important and gifted voice...
Boston's famed Heart Specialist Paul Dudley White, 73, is almost as eager as was Captain Ahab to sink a harpoon into the mightiest leviathan of the deep, but for a different reason: he wants to record its electrocardiogram. Dr. White has logged the ECG of a small (only 1¼ ton) Beluga whale in Alaska (TIME, Aug. 25, 1952), but has been thwarted in efforts to get his electrodes into the bigger grey whale off California.

It is an altogether Anouilhan balance, in that it finds much to be said against both sides. But where Anouilh, a worldly observer with both heart and spleen, shows a certain contempt for the riders of bandwagons, he mocks his knight with compassion. And where, in earlier and bitterer mood, Anouilh set his version of Moliere's surly misanthrope against a too complaisant world, his hero in The Fighting Cock comes closer to Cervantes' cracked...
...charge of Helen. It is nourished by the overwhelming urgency of Annie's every action, her passionate need to dispense with the amenities-and with the Keller family's sentimental softness-in order to get down to the awful business of unlocking a darkened human mind and heart. It is onstage through every moment of physical combat as the adult teacher descends to the role of animal trainer in order to subdue a furious and frustrated child...
