Still in a tight financial squeeze, the company last week announced another round of layoffs at the Star and Tribune: 75 jobs, including 28 from the editorial department. Staff reactions were stunned and even bitter, but none were as dramatic as that of Editor Charles W. Bailey. He resigned in protest, abruptly and angrily...
Realist painting is now such an accepted fact of American art that one almost forgets how many of its best practitioners were once abstract painters, converted in midcareer. Philip Pearlstein, Sidney Tillim, Alfred Leslie, William Bailey: they all came, in one way or another, out of abstract expressionism, making the change not from opportunism-15 or 20 years ago, practically no collectors or museums were exempt from the tyranny of abstract art-but out of a sense of lost engagement with the physical world and a hunger to recomplicate the game.

But Bailey did not make his request until 10:30 Tuesday night, 90 minutes before the conference committee report on the bill...
...Cahaly's (47 Mt. Auburn St.) sports a newly enlarged ice-cream disco bar. Baskin and Robbins (541 Mass. Ave.) never adjusted to the new generation competition of homemade ice cream flavors, though the famous 31 still beat the hell out of Brigham's (1420 Mass Ave.) chalky offerings. Bailey's, around on Brattle St., has only the old fashioned cones and sundaes, but boasts the most pleasing atmosphere...
