...large, Italians conducted democracy's most vital business, in a holiday spirit tempered by dignity and humor. In Milan, Contessa Castelbarco, Toscanini's eldest daughter Wally (see Music), was the first voter at her polling place in a schoolroom. The lone Communist member of the election board unctuously escorted her out, thanked her for voting. "Thank you," she replied sweetly. "But are you the host...
Widow's Might. In a cream-colored stucco house in suburban Teusaquillo, things had changed, too. There, beside the bier of her murdered husband, Senora Amparo Jaramillo de Gaitan, 35, sat with her daughter Gloria, 10. For days she refused to permit his burial unless Conservative President Mariano Ospina Perez first resigned. Even if she relented, the wobbly government could hardly risk a huge public funeral.

Daughter Wanda visits frequently (with her pianist husband, Vladimir Horowitz). He often talks by telephone with his other daughter Wally, the Countess Castel-barco, who lives in Italy...
Kupferman's new paintings tell very little about their squirmy wet subject matter; they jumble and reassemble it to make complex and technically brilliant designs. The abstractions had started with careful drawings of shells, starfish and seaweed that he and his five-year-old daughter found on the beach at Provincetown. He took to thumbing through scientific books illustrated with diagrams of tentacled polyps, and the nervous systems of sea worms and cross sections of jellyfish, because his wife made him throw out all the sea life he had brought home. "The house smelled like low tide," she complained...
