Lenny gave them two programs to remember; Mozart, Brahms, Beethoven and on to the U.S. moderns, with Aaron Copland's high-stepping Billy the Kid and George Gershwin's swelling, Turkey-fresh Rhapsody in Blue. Both nights he yielded to thunderous ovations, played encores till way past midnight. Even after the players had left the stage, spectators refused to budge, clamored for more. Only when Lenny was seen dashing for the exit (where he was swamped by autograph seekers) did the Turks go home...
...vacationing Nelson family from Kansas City, it was a festive family dinner down on the farm-Grandpa Aaron Gruwell's farm at Idaho Falls, Idaho. Kenneth Nelson, 45, a mechanic, and his wife Naomi had driven west with their five children, aged 4 to 15. Grandma Gruwell always set a good table. This time she served home-canned beets, but explained at the dining table: "I didn't can these myself. I got them from a friend, and they taste to me like they need a bit more vinegar...
Last week, because of the beets, Aaron Gruwell was dead. So were Kenneth Nelson (after lingering more than a week, part of the time in an iron lung) and daughter Wanda, 15. Naomi Nelson, just out of an iron lung, might take months to recover fully. Martha Nelson. 4, was running around but still under observation. Grandma Gruwell, 64, was propped up in a hospital bed, apparently on the mend. Three children-Eileen, 14, Allen, 10, and Donald, 8, who had not eaten the beets-were in good health...
...uneven quality of the exhibition tends to ensure a quick run-through of the works which merit attention on the part of the artgoer. An inclusive exhibition of a private collection is bound to turn up some third-rate works such as the trompe-l'oeil offerings of one Aaron Shikler, to name the author of three objects among the several works which I found on a par with the average products of the Washington Square Arts Festival. In general, the many minor objects randomly interspersed among the major works gives the impression of an "attic" rather than "Attic" sort...
...assorted objects against a cool sea painted on this week's cover by Artist Aaron Bohrod are familiar symbols of the oceanographer's trade. The brownish-pink PGR (Precision Graphic Record), from which the portrait emerges, is used to make a portrait of the ocean floor. The record that served as a model was actually made on July 15, 1958 and shows part of the profile of the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean some 70 miles northeast of St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. Behind the graph paper is a yellow Nansen Bottle, used by oceanographers to take water samples...
