...psychic turmoil beneath his surface. Against Michael Anania's stark, hospital-green set. Montgomery delivers Jackson's graphic descriptions of horrific war scenes in a voice which goes flat whenever his emotions threaten to take over. His face becomes an artistic canvas, simultaneously evoking the moral desolation of a Hopper cityscape and the pain of a Munch woodcut. His continual taking of breathmints suggests that nothing can serve as a palliative for getting the horrible taste out of his heart and soul...
...admirers. Fantin-Latour then judiciously posed them beside a portrait of the great French Romantic painter. The composition is as simple as the relationships. Soyer, on the other hand, chose a much more difficult situation to compose. He selected ten realist artists for his Homage, including Edward Hopper, Jack Levine, Leonard Baskin, Reginald Marsh and himself.

...passengers holding Braniff tickets panicked and traded them in at ticket offices for seats on BranifFs archrival, American Airlines. Last week allegations were made to the Civil Aeronautics Board by unspecified airline-industry insiders that American let the Braniff tickets accumulate, then abruptly dumped them into the clearinghouse hopper in a "dirty tricks" campaign designed to create a Braniff cash crunch and hasten the airline's demise. Though American Airlines dismissed the charge as "absolutely ridiculous," the CAB is looking into the matter anyway...
