...ambassador, informally dressed in a grey wool jersey dress and tan polo coat, was quickly caught up in the crush. Crowded from corner to corner by the eager cameramen, she could scarcely get through a statement-mostly in careful Italian-that she had prepared for her arrival. "I am proud to come here as the ambassador of a President and a country that wants what Italy wants most-to help build for all of us the house of security on the rock of justice and liberty," said Ambassador Luce...

The colors were as exuberant as the designs: heads in chartreuse and grey, faces that were half yellow, half blue, with startling vermilion circles under the eyes. One of the favorites was a group project: a huge mural of Charlestown with all the details, including a nest of pigeon eggs perched on a church ledge...
