UMBERTO MASTROIANNI-Bonino, 7 West 57th. This major Italian sculptor (an uncle of Movie Actor Marcello Mastroianni) casts planks and lumps of bronze and gives the tortured results such names as Hiroshima, Violenza, Pearl Harbor. Together, they look like a junk heap of civilization from which blooms a brute mess of skulls, limbs and deformities: machine-age fleurs du mal. Through March...
...virtues and defects of Sillitoe's work. A young spiv describes his lovely nasty life in the golden months when he is headed for Borstal (reform school) but has not yet arrived there.

By claiming paid circulation, the giveaways that do not depend solely on carrier-boy delivery can escape into the less confiscatory rate for second-class mail. This takes some doing: the Post Office requires that such a paper sell...
...scooters and motorcycles in the Plympton St. and Cowperthwaite St. parking lots not displaying current University registration stickers will be sold to a junk dealer on or about Nov. 15, Robert Tonis, Chief of University Police, announced yesterday...
