...Marine veteran of Iwo Jima who does not drink, smoke or swear, he delighted the backwoods by scorning a "monkey suit" at his inauguration. As Oklahoma's first G.O.P. Governor, Bellmon proved so popular that in 1966 he was able to pull in a Republican successor, Governor Dewey Bartlett, a Princeton-educated, Roman Catholic Tulsan in a traditionally rural-oriented, Protestant state. Democratic hegemony has been shattered, and now Bellmon is after Monroney's Senate seat...
Understandably, politicians who want to get anywhere in Oklahoma come hat in hand to Gaylord. The present Republican Governor, Dewey Bartlett, candidly admits that he owes his election in large part to Gaylord's support. Though he has not backed a Democratic presidential candidate since 1932, Gaylord insists on his political independence. "There is little difference between Democrats and Republicans these days," he says. "The real difference is in the candidates' character." He didn't support Barry Goldwater in 1964 because he considered the Senator too inconsistent in his views. But he shares much of Barry...
...RICHARD Bartlett's A Question of Color (Boston University) proved a nicely-made and often-funny parody ofA Man And A woman.

Indeed, their clubs never made it out of the back seat of the 1975 Matador that was transporting the foursome of Scott McNeely, Alex Vik, Randy Millen and John Bartlett to the match's scheduled site of New Seabury Country Club on Cape Cod. Instead, it was a shanked brake which caused all of the trouble, a two-car collision outside of a shopping mall in Wareham, Mass., and the assessment of a two-stroke penalty to the Crimson for hitting into an unexpected...
Thanks to Chicago grandmothers like Mrs. Potter Palmer, the impressionist-loving grande dame of Chicago society in the 1890s, to say nothing of grandfathers like Hardware Heir Frederic Clay Bartlett, who gave the museum Seurat's La Grande Jatte, the Art Institute today is the possessor of a 19th century impressionist and postimpressionist collection among the best in the U.S. Under rangy (6 ft. 2 in., 195 Ibs.), Harvard-honed Charles C. Cunningham, 57, who took over as director a year ago after 20 years at Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum, the museum has hewed to a policy...
