...interesting that Anthropologist Mead would urge Carter to stress "style over substance" [Oct. 4]. If Dr. Mead were to view some old newsreels showing Hitler addressing one of his Nrünberg rallies, she would see this concept carried to perfection...
...show's curator, Ralph T. Coe of Kansas City's Nelson Gallery of Art, is not an anthropologist but an art historian who uncovered the 850 artifacts in obscure collections from South Dakota to south Bavaria.

Witnesses to conditions in Paraguay's primitive jails claim that detainees are regularly tortured. One recent victim was internationally known Anthropologist Miguel Chase Sardi, who was released in June after seven months in prison. Chase Sardi says he was drugged, beaten and dipped upside down in water to the point where his hearing may have been permanently damaged. Other methods of torture include electric shock, the extraction of fingernails and forcing...
