Since Papandreous forces in Parliament remained a majority, the King thereafter had to appoint feeble caretaker governments. Papandreou's eventual successor, Stephan Stephanopoulos (who was also arrested last week), succeeded in whittling the Papandreou majority to a bare plurality by forging a coalition of parties. At the same time, the whole country anxiously awaited the opening of the Aspida trial, in which 28 officers were charged with high treason.

The parallel strands of color in each corner act like a pair of springs, compressing the large white field above and giving it astonishing luminosity and depth. The optical oscillation of space in the earlier paintings is muted, and the language finds...
...penultimate race, the 40-yard breast stroke, was carried off by North House for a 61-58 lead over the Orientals. The water sprackeled with tension for the final 80-yard free-style as East House nosed ahead to victory by a bare stroke...
