...Odds Over Bobby. Much of the credit for the paper's verve belongs to its publisher, O. Roy Chalk, 58, who bought it from a Dominican expatriate in 1962. Though he runs a vast business empire that includes the Washington, D.C. Transit System, Trans Caribbean Airways and some choice parcels of New York real estate, Chalk devotes a minimum of one full day a week to his paper, and he writes many of its editorials.

("the chalk-white city half in love with Time"), White displayed even in this disjointed, unedited chronicle the wit and insight that made his novels classics in their author's lifetime...
...household, has assembled what amounts to a private exhibit: most of these 160 studies, here presented in stunning four-color plates, have not been shown before. The artist has illuminated many of them with his own comments, and has contributed the gay, gaudy "Picasso alphabet"-multicolor flourishes in chalk-that adorns Miss Parmelin's text. The period covered is 1954-63, when Picasso, working with explosive exuberance, immortalized his lovely model (and later, second wife), Jacqueline Roque, on canvas and also in sheet metal, cast iron and ceramic tile...
