...guitarist Carl Chase, and a wonderful long solo by Cooke on Blue Grass, the concert didn't really begin until the band's highly impressive vocalist, Liz Filo, swept on stage towards the end of the first set. But Mrs. Filo (who, in a black cocktail dress, improved my frame of mind before she even opened her mouth) picked up band and audience alike, and only set them down, flushed and cheering, after six stunning tunes. The band improved with her very first number, skillfully backing her on When Sunny Gets Blue; then it left the stage to join...
...Football is a contact sport," says Taylor, who packs 215 Ibs. on a 6-ft. frame. "You've got to punish tacklers-deal out more misery than they deal out to you." Taylor's personal philosophy is uncomplicated: "I like to knock heads." A driving, crablike runner, he always hits the line precisely where he is supposed to-even when there is no hole ("I won't be intimidated''), never cuts when he can run down a tackler instead ("I like to sting them a little''). Crouched low to present the smallest possible...
...acre place near Centralia, Mo. (see third color page), and rent another 180 acres near by. Son Frank, 24, and his wife Jane live in a modern pink-and-gray clapboard house built from architect's plans in a farm magazine.

They have a heavy investment in machinery and rolling stock, including a $9,000 combine, two pickup trucks, a 2½-ton truck...
...Lord Russell has recalled that his own early work was done in ignorance of Clifford's, but ventured that Clifford in the 1870's was thinking ahead of the best minds of his day. In Einstein's time the geometry of the real world lost its reliability as a frame of reference and became properly a part of physics itself. One can infer from both Newman and Russell that this inversion, an alien notion to most nineteenth-century thinkers was already half-formed in Clifford's mind...
...full operation next week when Buffalo's Albright-Knox Art Gallery opens the largest (143 items) Wyeth exhibition ever held. In all his work, whether drawing, watercolor or tempera, there is no mistaking the impeccable technique, no ignoring the tense, if quiet, drama being played out within every frame. The America that Wyeth paints is only superficially the America of today; basically, it is a timeless place with timeless preoccupations. The long, long past of man and his earth is implicit in every Wyeth painting: his trees seem weighted by memories, his rooms are filled with ghosts...
