Arkansas' Democratic Representative Dale Alford is an ophthalmologist-and he knows how to interpret political eye-charts. Alford's Fifth District and Democrat Wilbur Mills's neighboring Second have been merged by congressional redistricting; running against Mills, a twelve-term veteran and chairman of the key House Ways and Means Committee, Alford's rating would be about 20/200. Until a few weeks ago, Alford showed signs of trying instead for Foreign Relations Chairman J. William Fulbright's Senate seat.

He feels that if he is tough this way, he will be tough in other...
...taste can be cruel, they can also be marvelously kind. When the delicate Girl Reading, by Jean Honore Fragonard, appeared on the velvet block, the Parke-Bernet audience suddenly burst into applause. After some whispered consultation with Director John Walker of the National Gallery in Washington. D.C., Collector Chester Dale bid it in for the gallery for $875,000. This was more than twice the price of any Fragonard before, and, for that matter, more than any other picture ever auctioned except Aristotle...
