...room is dark, save for the rosy glow from the pilot light. On the broad panel-set roughly equidistant from two woofered and tweetered speaker assemblies in massive cabinets-is an array of switches, dials and knobs. This is not the cockpit of the X-15; it is a modern stereophonic rig. Tuner off. Amplifier on. Selector switch on RIAA. All niters out. Left volume control on #5. Right volume control on #5. Turntable spinning at 33⅓ r.p.m. A metal arm glides with feathery softness over the record. For the moment, the speakers are switched off. Instead, from...
...Journal's War. Within four years the Examiner's circulation trebled, and the paper soon took on the black glow of financial health. Hearst moved impatiently on; with $7,500,000 conned from mother, he invaded New York. He needed all his grubstake, and more, for he bought the sickly Morning Journal (circ. 77,000) and led it into mortal battle against Joseph Pulitzer's powerful World (morning and evening circ. 500,000).

In the final countdown, G.M. began to make one concession after another. After 17 solid hours of hard bargaining, Walter Reuther stepped out wearing a coldshower glow. "I feel very good," he beamed. "I'm delighted...
...bowing distantly to Paris, but taking more cues from New York, is achieving a specific British combination of emotion and sensibility. Sometimes the paintings evoke the grime of cities whose burdens are overpowering. At other times the warm freshness of nature overwhelms the painters' defenses, leaving a happy glow. The style tends to be neater and less vigorous than the American. More than fellow abstractionists elsewhere, the British acknowledge and reflect a debt to more conventional artists, such as the 19th century's Constable and Turner, and to contemporaries like Ben Nicholson and Graham Sutherland.
