High-Stepping Horowitz

Undoubtedly, the show reached its
zany zenith when the venerable
Dean Paulsen himself leaped to the
stage to join the high-stepping
Horowitz in a swaggering, careening
dance.

Unfortunately, the lack of
publicity and high prices kept the
audience limited to mostly law
students and faculty on Saturday
night, and the play was performed
to a half-empty house on Friday.
The heavy proportions of "in"
humor in the Libel Show naturally
limited an outsider's appreciation.
But it took no specialist to realize
that the show was pure
entertainment.
