...became synonymous with his curved chairs; of a heart attack; in St. Louis. In 1941, while designing molded machine parts for the U.S. Navy, Eames collaborated by night with his wife Ray to produce the "potato chip," a sculptured wood back and separate seat, both affixed to a steel frame. Today his molded plastic chairs are found in airline terminals and office lobbies the world over...
From the start, the case had the ingredients of a Hollywood whodunit. But when the defense, claiming a frame-up, demanded to see the reporter's notes, the Doctor X trial was transformed into a clash of constitutional principles as well. Citing the First Amendment and a New Jersey "shield law" giving a reporter the privilege of refusing to disclose confidential sources, Farber and the Times refused to turn over anything. The result: a head-on collision between the First and Sixth Amendments, between the constitutional claims of free press and fair trial...
During the '20s, space itself?articulated air?became the subject of constructivist sculpture and painting, whereas before it had been the frame for a subject.

For convenience, Szarkowski divides the images in this show into "mirrors"?pictures that mean to describe the photographer's own sensibility?...
Heitz started with almost nothing, and he certainly is no Henry Ford II, but he can say, with Ford's proud independence, "My name is on the building." Right in his backyard, in two gray stone structures that are 100 paces from his white frame house, Heitz, Wife Alice, Son David and four hired hands make a product that is sold in half the nation's states. He is chief executive of Heitz Wine Cellars, which means that he is also vintner, bacteriologist, accountant, marketing manager and occasional lawn mower...
Some summer students give back to their host countries as much as they gain. Brigham Young University's "Project Guatemala" is more of a mission than a course. For eight weeks, 44 students teach nutrition, agriculture and health care to Guatemalans. Last year engineering students built frame houses to replace dwellings that had been destroyed by the 1976 Guatemala City earthquake. Their reward: six to eight credits...
