...diminutive professor with hostile questions, but he could not blunt the thrust of Diamond's testimony about murder in a trance. A far-out tale? Perhaps. A grave problem of determining mental health in criminal trials is that expert witnesses are almost always available to back up either prosecution or defense with their testimony (see BEHAVIOR). After two more psychologists declared that Sirhan suffers from grave mental disorders, avuncular Attorney Grant Cooper rested for the defense. And though a handwriting expert called by the prosecution saw no evidence that Sirhan's diary had been written under the mirror...
They live in a handsomely renovated town house in the East 90s, with "his" and "her" paintings on either side of the fireplace. Never has Helen Frankenthaler painted more surely and decisively than she does at her two current studios, one over a hardware store on Third Avenue, the other in the woods near Provincetown, on Cape Cod. The Motherwells go to Provincetown in the summer, to be joined by Motherwell's two daughters by a previous marriage, Jeannie, 16, and Lise, 14.

...prize-fighter Jack Johnson is awe-inspiring--and makes a visit to this production worthwhile. But the play (by Howard Sackler) is generally awful and sometimes offensive -- unfocused, full of wretched excesses, and sociologically more pertinent to the forties than the sixties. Edwin Sherin's direction isn't much either, nor is the supporting cast--with the exception of Lou Gilbert as a much-tormented manager. At the ALVIN, W. 52nd...
