...While in the Middle East last winter, I fell in love with the Jordanians most of all. But today my hat's off to Israel. What a tableau: There it stood, tiny and alone, cursed and menaced on every border by 14 scowling enemies. Yet today-"how are the mighty fallen!" But beginning with Abraham himself, Jewish history is replete with amazing exploits like this. Guts and stamina-the Israelis have them. Hail...
Lichtenstein has gone on to kid other styles. Picasso was ripe for ribbing, he felt, because a Picasso "has become a kind of popular object-everyone feels he should have a reproduction of a Picasso in his home." In Woman with I Flowered Hat, Lichtenstein did "an oversimplification of Picasso, a kind of 'plain-pipe-racks' Picasso." Portions of the paintings were stenciled with Lichtenstein's distinctive Benday dots (applied with a toothbrush through a perforated screen) to simulate the effect of commercial printing-and also to remind the viewer that he is looking at the popular...
...Wagon. Out of the West he jogs, the familiar bleached red shirt and wide-brimmed hat announcing the arrival of John Wayne in his 162nd film. As inevitable as death and Texas, Wayne again plays a hard-nosed, soft-spoken loner-a once-wealthy rancher whose gold-filled land has been stolen in a swindle.

...gently accented English. "I didn't think I would be here with you this time. But thank God we are together again, and we can make lovely music." With that, Pablo Casals, 90, gravely ill last winter after a prostate operation, put on his conductor's hat for the eleventh Casals Festival in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and made lovely music on opening night with another great cellist, Gregor Piatigorsky, 64, in their first public performance together in more than 30 years...
...Archbishop John Krol, 56, of Philadelphia, a steely conservative, is the efficient vice president of the new U.S. bishops' conference. Chicago's business-like John Patrick Cody, 59, as head of the nation's largest archdiocese, was more or less automatically in line for a red hat. Archbishop Patrick O'Boyle, 70, of Washington, D.C., has a reputation within the church of being a sturdy champion of minority rights and a skillful organizer of charities. The fourth new U.S. cardinal, Pennsylvania-born Francis J. Brennan, 73, has for eight years been dean of the Sacred Roman...
