...occasion broke into a dance, Mrs. Ford, a former student of Martha Graham, spontaneously joined in. A few days later she taped a cameo appearance for a forthcoming Mary Tyler Moore show. The same day she helped launch a Braniff airplane painted with a Bicentennial design by Alexander Calder. At home, she brings in Liberty's puppies for guests to cuddle in the family living room, where the Fords do their personal entertaining−usually sit-on-the-floor buffet suppers. On a glorious Indian summer day last week, she strolled along Georgetown's Wisconsin Avenue, window-shopping...
...night in August. Cleaver had come to visit his friend Jack Caball, an American expatriate novelist (one of a dying breed) and talk about his pants. The setting was intimate--the room in the Latin Quarter of Paris was dark and warm, with wood ceiling beams, tall bookshelves, a Calder print above the fireplace and a Chagall lithograph over the grand piano...
...more important, to most alum's the impact of even the most startling events happening at Harvard are like that of "a flea bouncing off a wall," says Frederick C. Calder '57, headmaster of Germantown Friends School, one of the area's most successful schools for getting people into Harvard.

Calder is mostly known for his mobiles, copies of which have a tendancy to end up in banks. The gallery is at 125 Newbury St. in Boston...
...colossi." Mitigate is scarcely the word. The landscape sometimes annihilates the sculpture. That vast, wrinkled plane of sea fringed by blue pudding-stone bluffs is so much stronger than some of the works perched above it that objects like George Sugarman's 18-ft. Kite Castle, 1974, Alexander Calder's stabile or Robert Murray's pleated steel Windhover, 1969, become mere origami. They are gallery art, or at most museum-plaza art, scaled up and deprived of context...
