...fact that Corinth's instincts were always poetic makes his flaw particularly lamentable. Shimizu might take his cue. When Corinth does a watercolor like The Beautiful Imperia, a loose wash of lucid color, he arrives at a quality which most of his Teutonic contemporaries generally lack--a naive loveliness, (the word used wholly in complimentary fashion.). The same goes for Susanna and the Elders or Imperial Palace. But when he draws, or tries to draw, his linear Knight, the result is nothing short of inexcusable...
...cue, Governor J. Lindsay Almond Jr. (TIME, Sept. 22) announced that if federal courts ruled against the statewide massive resistance system, which automatically closes schools before they can be integrated, he would name a commission "for the purpose of counsel and advice." Although Senator Harry Byrd, the creator of massive resistance and the commonwealth's political boss, publicly proclaimed that he would continue to fight on the old grounds, there was little doubt that the news on the editorial pages heralded a strategic retreat in Richmond toward token compliance with the U.S. Supreme Court's integration decrees...
...Room. Enraged, the Socialists started after Shiikuma, who, hiding his face in his sleeve, had been smuggled into the chamber before the session began and had been waiting, crouched between two desks, for his cue.

Laurents, perhaps taking a cue from Jacqueline's dream in Rolland's novel Jean Christophe, has put them all on the same temporal plane--the present--so that the three can converse and interact with themselves, with Virginia, and with the other characters in the play. This dangerous gimmick, adumbrated in Death of a Salesman, works beautifully here and the result is highly effective theatre. It is a fine...
...seven Negro children to stay on at Little Rock's Central High School. "The rights we are seeking protection for are not rights that are in the abstract," said Counselor Marshall. "The rights we seek are rights that have been recognized by the federal courts." Taking his cue from the Justice Department brief already filed, Marshall also urged the Supreme Court to go beyond the motion before it, to rule on Judge Lemley's original decision. "The way the case stands," said Marshall, "there must be a definitive decision, so that in Arkansas there will be no doubt...
