Lost Appeal. A new and sober mood is settling on the Bonifaces of Miami Beach. Once the great pride of Miami Beach was the dazzling new "hotel of the year," each one more expensively eccentric in decor than the last one. This year there was no new hotel, nor are any abuilding. Instead three huge apartment houses are nearing completion, offering apartments for tourists as low as $100 a month...

Gonzales, a granddaughter of Flagler...
...society celebrated its swift growth by moving into a new building on East 64th Street designed by Philip Johnson and christened Asia House. Architect Johnson's curious combination of austere steel-and-glass with a luxurious leather-and-linen decor might strike some visitors as overformal, but at least it did nothing to detract from the superb objects displayed in the opening show. The loan exhibition chosen from the top American collections consisted of 46 masterpieces, ranging from Japan to Afghanistan and covering a span of 3,000 years...
