...contrast, Herb Adams's Bolingbroke is a character of much power and just though not vengeful anger. His portrayal of the usurper is not the only possible one, but Adams has developed it with assurance and consistency. Equally consistent and even more convincing is Harold R. Scott's portrayal of the Duke of York. His acting is the best in the entire production, and he makes the agony of York's divided loyalty to both Richard and Bolingbroke clear in every line and even the dejected shuffle of his steps. Scott proves that a comparatively minor part can assume major...
Campaigning through California, Adlai Stevenson found himself bombarded by hard-hitting questions from Negro leaders. His answers left behind a trail of disillusionment and downright anger. Urging moderation,, he said the Federal Government must go slowly in enforcing desegregation, using education and persuasion rather than force.

He enraged a lot of people, and capitalized on their anger by fielding their barbs into an anthology, Schimpflexikon...
President Carlos Castillo Armas clashed last week with the politically powerful law students of the National University, who threatened to strike unless the President permitted the return of eight politicos banished to neighboring countries for "plotting." Though they held no brief for the exiles, the students burned with righteous anger against the penalty of deportation, which is in such bad repute that Guatemala's forthcoming constitution specifically forbids it. Castillo Armas talked it over with student leaders, sensibly decided not to create martyrs needlessly, ordered Guatemalan consulates to give the deportees re-entry visas...
