These conservatives are more inclined to trust Nixon, a known quantity, than McGovern, whom they regard as a risky and untried leader. Says Mrs. Betty Brush, of San Jose, Calif.: "President Nixon has four years of experience, McGovern has not had any of consequence. I believe Nixon is just getting started; so why not let him finish? He's a good man." If the South Dakota Senator is to mount a serious challenge for the presidency, he will have to do a lot more to convince the party conservatives that now is the time for all good Democrats...
...what it has so generously given me: education, respect, dignity, artistic freedom." Thus he is the opposite of the cliché that stuck to Abstract Expressionism-the artist as roaring boy, trapped and goaded by his own tragic energies, armed with much myth but no history, articulate only at brush point...

The trip was uneventful until the tiny convoy reached Ramieh, a town eight miles inland from the Mediterranean where paved roads run parallel on both sides of the border.

Resnick is a quite traditional painter, to the extent that he works in intimate, stroke-by-stroke contact with his painting. Brush marks pile on one another, forming a layered web of minutely graded pigment. (Some times the crust gets so thick that it is physically unwieldy: one large canvas in the show, Pink Fire, has 450 lbs. of paint on it.) The effect is not of a grand abstract-expressionist gesture...
