...costly gold-leafed and painted bamboo sheaths, then nonchalantly flinging them away into the river. But he was no dilettante. Korin's work embraced most mediums, even the decoration of plates, on which he collaborated with his brother Ogata Kenzan to produce works like the hexagonal iron-brown dish bearing a figure of Juro, the dumpy little god of longevity. Korin had an almost miraculous sense of materials; witness his writing box, with a design of irises, pool and bridge. The iris leaves and stems are gold lacquer, the flowers mother-of-pearl inlay, the bridge columns are rendered...
...this year's game against Princeton. The night before we were at training table at the Hanover Inn, everyone was having vanilla ice cream sundies, you know the kind they scoop not the bricks you get in the dining hall but as a joke they brought me a dish full of white napkins. Everyone laughed but I'm pretty far-sighted and I didn't notice what was wrong. Yea I started laughing too. I don't know why. I suppose cause everyone else was. I dug into the dessert--I thought it was pretty bland kind of mealy-like...
...Pizza Parlor in Los Angeles, gluttons have only their appetites in common and are difficult to identify at a glance. Manager Edward White of Manhattan's Stockholm Restaurant (unlimited smorgasbord for $6.95) still shudders when he remembers the tall, beautifully groomed woman who ravaged his 85-dish buffet.

"It looked like an exploding volcano," says White, "and she repeated three or four times...
Mickey Lolich was in trouble. Tommy Harper and Little Luis danced off base as he threw a curve that hung over the dish for the reborn Carl Yastrzemski. Yaz placed the ball over the dish for the outstretched arm of Mickey Stanley in the cavernous Detroit center field. Harper crossed the plate with the tying run as Yaz steamed into third base. But the coordination of Aparicio had deserted him in this one crucial moment. Little Luis fell down, crawled back to third base with the go-ahead run, to greet the ecstatic, then horrified, yastrzemski. The pennant...
...meal a week--a simple meal--as a means of commemoration to recall the days before the Liberation. I am wondering if the Harvard dining facilities could be induced to set aside a lunch or evening meal for the same effect--e.g., serve rice, or a great bland dish that can be bought, prepared, and served cheaply. I should think some five cents per person could be saved in this way, although an administration budget juggler would probably call me naive. The money would be sent to the Indochinese through an appropriate organization, and the program would continue as long...
