...easy job. But it has resulted in a fascinating exhibition, 'Patrick Henry Bruce: American Modernist," now finishing its run at New York's Museum of Modern Art and due to open at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond on Nov. 27. It is the fruit of several years' research by Art Historians William Agee, director of the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, and Barbara Rose.

Richard and Pat Nixon, moving eastward into a Manhattan condominium, did it with two poolside margarita, taco, guacamole and fruit kebab parties at La Casa Pacifica. Former Attorney General Mitchell, marking his 66th birthday, was guest of honor at the first, a reunion to which 250 old hands of the Nixon Administration were invited.
