...clash of opinion reverberates among the luthiers, or violinmakers, as well. Some figure that Stradivari got his wood from as far away as Germany, but most agree that the supple spruce in the tops of his fiddles came from the southern slopes of the Alps, and the curly maple in the bottom and sides from the eastern shores of the Adriatic. To find identical cuts of wood, U.S. Luthier Fernando Sacconi scavenged demolition sites in Italy last summer and salvaged planking from 400-year-old houses. To duplicate the seasoned willow that Stradivari used for braces, one U.S. luthier uses...
...bound to be maligned by those it touches) that sometimes a Senior Tutor simply doesn't like the boy he is supposed to be defending. When such cases arise, another member of the Board will often rise to the student's defense if he feels there is a personality clash.

...right, just as his earlier books had succored the left. The three novels that constitute District of Columbia (1952) have been unfairly dismissed as the rightist tracts of an embittered man. Yet there was no falling-off in the plain power of his prose. His role in the clash of generations showed an honest man's bad timing, not bad faith or bad judgment; for his literary reputation, though, it was certainly bad luck...
