...caricature has been the deadly penmanship of David Levine, 42, whose witty, polemical line drawings have appeared in Esquire, New York magazine, the New York Review of Books, TIME and Newsweek.

Last week, to right the balance, Levine exhibited 48 of his watercolors along with 40 drawings in Manhattan's Forum Gallery, and thus reminded his admirers of his dual gifts...
...insisted that Gulf & Western Industries wanted no part of any corporation "where the management doesn't welcome our entrance." On that basis, Gulf & Western agreed last month to sell its 33% interest in Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Co., which had resisted the very idea of a merger.

Sheaffer fails to develop this suggestion beyond referring the reader as usual to Long Day's Journey and pointing out that those two woman-hating geniuses, Nietzsche and Strindberg, became O'Neill's literary idols and remained so to the end.

Tierney said that "most of the recruiting is being done by the black students." Almost all of the Business School's 32 black students are making weekend trips to different schools as spokesmen for the admissions office.
