...drawings, thousands in number, were an integral part of his life and thought. How important they were in relation to his sculpture can be gauged from the first exhibition of Smith drawings ever held, a showing that opened this month at New York's Whitney Museum. Organized by Art Historian Paul Cummings, this exhilarating show consists of 139 works spanning the period from...
...figure saying: "Put another log on the fire, Heather. I think it is beginning to snow again. My God, there must be eight feet out there now, Heather. I don't know what to do."

Johnny Carson confesses on TV that he is having a harder time with his opening monologues; Art Buchwald, who gets most of his humor columns out of topical events, hasn't done a single column about Iran. Even presidential candidates have been biting their tongues about Iran, except for Connally's early macho outburst and Teddy Kennedy's intemperate denunciation of the Shah...
