Post-Pepsi. For the short run, Kennedy's decision had the heaviest impact on Humphrey. Teddy on the ticket would conciliate many R.F.K. and McCarthy dissidents. More than ever, Humphrey's campaign badly needs a transfusion of that younger blood. McCarthy last week japed that Humphrey "may have been under house arrest for the past four years," and the Veep is indeed having more and more trouble shedding the stigma of the Johnson Administration's policies while simultaneously preserving the image of a faithful Vice President...
...jobs to design a hotel, airbases in Morocco, and three towns in Okinawa. Having achieved a reputation for bigness, S.O.M. earned a name for high-quality design with Manhattan's Lever House. Lever has since been copied so often?and so badly?that it has lost much of its impact. But 16 years ago, it astonished and delighted the U.S. In its use of sheer glass curtain walls, its spacious plaza (75% of the site), and bold positioning of horizontal slab and vertical shaft, it was revolutionary.

...Philadelphia's Connie Mack Stadium-are located in ghetto areas, which many fans are afraid to traverse at night. The pitchers' domination of the sport and the concurrent decline in hitting (as of last week only eight major-leaguers were batting .300) undoubtedly have had an impact: "Pitching may be 75% of the game," says a San Francisco sportswriter, "but hitting is 75% of the gate."

There is increasing awareness that Miró in fact has had a far more enduring impact on the landscape of 20th century art than many critics had once suspected. The recognition comes, in part, as a result of a series of recent retrospectives in Zurich, Tokyo, London, New York, and now Los Angeles, which have brought out into the open many of his little-known works. They reveal Miró to be a remarkably diversified artist (see color pages). In the light of his full range, he stands forth today as astonishingly youthful, relevant and contemporary...
