...took a while for the Polish intelligence service to react. Then discreet inquiries began to be made. The Yugoslavs reported that the Monats had never reached Belgrade. Austrian authorities professed total ignorance. Thoroughly alarmed at last, Poland sent hordes of agents converging on Vienna from Warsaw, London and Paris, ostensibly to attend the Communist Youth Festival there. They began prowling the cafes and clubs frequented by anti-Communist Polish emigrés. There was no trace of the colonel...
Silver for Christmas. Clay's view of payola ethics is intricate: "I have never demanded money from a record-company. When a deejay does that, he's dirty rotten. But it is all right for a man to put down $200 and leave a record for a deejay. If the deejay honestly thinks it is good, then he is justified in taking the $200 because, after all, that money is an investment for the record company.

Into a short play, Inge has further tossed comedy bits involving theater types and neighbor boys, and a farcical bed-hopping drunk scene. As a result, mother and son never get deeply probed, never really come to grips. Something essential, whether cumulative small detail or a big scene, is missing. A climactic moment, such as the mother's refusing her son's deeply felt anniversary gift, half-sacrifices character to plot. The silver cord does not really bind...
