...create their disappearing environments, Lloyd Hamrol, 30, Eric Orr, 30, and Judy Gerowitz, 28, donned white jump suits, white gloves and white sneakers. As Orr explained: "Making the sculpture is just as important-in fact, the same thing-as the art work itself." Visitors could join in the esthetic experience by meandering between the smoking pylons of art.

Next game, against the St. Louis Hawks, Bill looked sharper, sinking eight straight baskets. Then he blew everything in the final seconds with a clumsy jump...
...Another inflationary sign came last week, when the Federal Reserve Board announced that during November, the nation's industrial output took its sharpest monthly jump in three years-rising 2.6 points on the board's index, to 159% of the 1957-59 base period...
