Dear Phil,
My apologies for the long delay in responding to your kindness in sending me the exciting television audio air check of "Reading Out Loud" the TV program where Jack read the Gettysburg Address. The Jackie Robinson Foundation has moved and we are still locating material sent to us as we reorganize the archives.
I listened to the tape with ABSOLUE AMAZEMENT and DELIGHT. Sharon and I remember vividly the family trip to Washington, and we have one photo taken on that occasion. Unfortunately, I do not have any memory of the recording session.
It is thrilling for us to hear Jackie's reading of this profound speech, and we shall cherish and preserve it in our archives. Most importantly, we will share it with our visitors to the Jackie Robinson Museum now being designed.
Phil, I am deeply grateful to you for this historic gift, and we will appropriately attribute it's preservation to you.
Sincerely,
Rachel Robinson

LOVE, LIFE, LIBERTY, AND LUNCH
1976-05-18,
WABC,
52 min.
Cyril Ritchard, Alan King, Zero Mostel, Peter Ustinov, Dick Shawn, Alan Arkin, Kay Mazzo, Christopher Hewett
A strong cast in a quartet of comedy playlets.
In Murray Schisgal's "Natasha Kovolina Pipishinsky," Alan Arkin is a married lawyer who has been stepping out with a young Russian ballerina (Kay Mazzo of the New York City Ballet). Alan King is the friend who advises him against the affair.
In Neil Simon's "A Quiet War," Zero Mostel and Peter Ustinov play a Russian odd couple-a retired general and admiral who wage a war of words over what makes "the perfect lunch."
King portrays a rueful dentist in Herb Gardner's "Word of Mouth." While working on a patient (Christopher Hewett), the dentist laments his failed marriage and his unemployed son, who "found himself three years ago, and has ever since been deeply engrossed in losing himself again."
Ustinov (the hour's director) wrote "Swordplay," a Bicentennial entry set in a New England barn in 1776. Dick Shawn plays a lonesome Revolutionary who sneaks up on a Redcoat colonel (Cyril Ritchard)-for a chat.
