Greenwich Village's American Contemporary Artists Gallery nestles like a hayloft hideaway in the eaves of the Village Barn cabaret. There last week William Cropper, U. S. leftism's No. 1 painter, gave his annual one-man show. A persistent sapper and gnawer at the roots of capitalism (for years the ace cartoonist of the old Liberator, the newer New Masses), Painter Gropper turns out each year some 50 oils, countless lithographs and drawings of fat capitalists, hungry workers, woe-heeled sharecroppers, bashed and bleeding soldiers. His highly-colored, savagely-drawn pictures have drawn praises and commissions from...
...Mare Nostrum ("Our Sea") but which cartoonists now label Nightmare Nostrum. It was known that what was left of the Italian Navy after Admiral Sir Andrew Browne Cunningham's brilliant aerial-torpedo stab into its main base at Taranto (TIME, Nov. 25) had scuttled for a more remote hideaway, probably Cagliari on Sardinia's south coast or Naples on the mainland. Perhaps the British keepers of the western gate of Italy's prison, under Vice Admiral Sir James Somerville, would get a glimpse of and a crack of their own at the fugitives...
...imagination of the dreamiest moppet in the highest hayloft on the hottest day. Items: a ranch, a race horse, a twelve-room home, 19 radios, a jazz band, two dogs, the junior singles tennis championship of the Pacific Southwest, a wardrobe like Clark Gable's, two automobiles, a hideaway apartment in Beverly Hills, a football team, a colored valet, a collection of pipes, a golf score in the 80s, an Oscar, the authorship of three nationally popular songs, a guitar, saxophone and two pianos, a set of stooges including two U. S. C. football players, a kiss from Bette...
...ruin, "like the great ruins at Ankor." Undeniably awe-inspiring, the ruins look more like the trylon at the New York World's Fair with the top knocked off. Soon the diggers are blowing the ruins to bits. They have the hidden treasures neatly crated in their jungle hideaway by the time Joan Bennett arrives in quest of her explorer husband...
...Melchiors' homes are three: the Manhattan hotel apartment, a Copenhagen hideaway and a 3,000-acre estate in Germany, at Chossewitz. There, though Tenor Melchior does not sing in Germany any more, he spends his summers. On an island in the middle of a lake, near the former Polish border, he inhabits what was originally the fortress of a medieval robber baron. All summer long, Lauritz Melchior invites his soul in this rustic barony. He likes to dress in Lederhosen, hunt his own land for rabbit, red deer or pheasant. On these expeditions he always carries his little brass...
