...YORK UNIVERSITY-Gould Student Center, University Ave. at 181st. What makes the long haul up to The Bronx worthwhile is the New York debut of a young and promising painter who infuses her abstractions with vitality. Tamara Thompson, 29, has structural poise and color sensitivity, sturdy values that serve many moods. October Painting summons the warm chill of a fall day. American Eagle is a glossy salute in red, white, blue and-lavender. Works in oil, gouache, Liquitex. Through...

Last week Langdon also reported that his railroad, which lost $31 million in 1961, bounced back to earn $5,500,000 last year on revenues of $372 million, and this year should double those earnings...
Treasure-Trove. Under the law, Mrs. Morris had a clear obligation to report her son's haul. And it was far from clear last week that the Morrises will be allowed to keep the cash. The "finders keepers, losers weepers" rule of thumb dates back to a celebrated case in 1722 when a British court held that a chimney sweep could keep a jewel he had found in a sooty flue. But over the years, specific exceptions to the old saying have been spelled out in an effort to clarify conflicts over accidentally discovered loot. Though practices vary widely...
