...property. The campus newspaper raked up a 1933 real-estate-rackets charge against Gordon (he was never convicted); student leaders signed a letter to Boston newspapers claiming that his dealings were "exploitive and discriminatory." Actually, Gordon's real estate holdings, which were once extensive in slum neighborhoods, now consist mostly of profitable downtown office buildings; only a few of the 100 or so apartments he owns are in the city's worst areas...
...props, sound effects and film clips have all become an integral part of the choreography, as in Jeffrey's Astarte (see cover picture). Accompaniment ranges from full symphony orchestras and electronic yawping to jazz and, as in the case of Jerome Robbins' Moves, dead silence. Costuming can consist of tossing on anything that suits the moment or, as in Parades and Changes, performed by Ann Halprin's Dancers' Workshop of San Francisco, taking it all off and cavorting around in the buff (although they wrap themselves in reams of flesh-colored paper...
...says Rees, have omitted his sexual preference- an ardent, lifelong homosexuality. The 1,229-page, two-volume biography by Michael Holroyd is long enough-and honest enough-to include much of Strachey's hitherto unpublished correspondence with John Maynard Keynes, a contemporary of his at Cambridge.

Kelley, a member of the Yard Council, the freshman contingent of the club, continued, "Young Dems didn't do a thing this year. It's especially important, with elections coming...
...their experiment duplicates the conditions on Jupiter, they reason, the Jovian atmosphere may consist largely of red dye material. Because of white clouds of frozen ammonia crystals at the outer fringes of the atmosphere, the red atmosphere is largely invisible from above. But below the red spot, some scientists believe, there might be a giant meteor crater in the solid hydrogen surface of the planet. This crater, the NASA researchers suggest, may form a great vortex in the atmosphere that swirls the red-hued dye up through the cloud cover, thus creating Jupiter's distinctive red spot...
