Alexander Calder's coat-hanger agglomerations of free forms twist and bob lazily on the breeze, exploit the possibilities for chance movement that reside in lightly balanced equilibriums. Lye's idea is to exploit instead the resiliences of high-tempered steels and flexible plastics. He raises simple abstract constructions of such materials on pedestals containing silent motor-vibrators. At a taped signal, the motors go into action, moving first slowly, then faster in a carefully calculated cycle, and the sculptures begin taking shape upon...

...Worse Every Day." Muhammad's doctrine of total hate found a ready medium in some Negro newspapers, which began to exploit Negro hopes and fears after the Emmett Till case. The Pittsburgh Courier, Negro national weekly, and the Los Angeles Herald-Dispatch, booming West Coast Negro paper, not only gained attention from his personal column, but also found their circulations boosted fast by Moslems who hawked the papers on street corners as a spiritual duty. Such leading Negro Harlem politicos as Congressman Adam Clayton Powell (pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church) and Manhattan Borough President Hulan Jack have curried...

...especially sweet: it erased forever the disgrace he suffered at the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki when he was disqualified in the heavyweight finals for "not trying."

Getting a cordial welcome and favorable response from Nehru, Black flew on to Karachi to test President Mohammed Ayub Khan and to exploit the feeling in both lands that this might be the last chance for a peace. Last week, boarding his plane for the U.S., Black said cheerfully: "We have reached agreement on certain principles, which we hope will lead to a final settlement."

Intellectuals' Flight. So far, the Russians have shown no signs of going to such lengths. They no longer so onerously exploit the East Germans, who now have what is probably the best standard of living in the Communist world. Many of East Germany's vaunted economic gains are all show: the bulk of the new housing in East Berlin is on the spectacular but dead Stalinallee. And with a total automobile production last year of 36,000, East Germany still has a long way to go to catch up economically with West Germany, which produced more than...
