...LEONARD BASKIN-Borgenicht, 1018 Madison Ave. at 78th. Nine new enigmas in bronze and wood from Smith College's bearded sculpture prof. Huge hulking owls, masks of poets and inscrutable birdmen make a cryptic metaphor of death and immortality. Through...
Another Stassen defeat occurred is the summer of 1956, when he said that polls showed Nixon would detract from the ticket and might cost the Republicans some Congressional seats and statehouses, if not the White House. He offered Christan Herter of Massachusetts as an alternative. Nixon and his manager, Leonard Hall, moved fast and ruthlessly to isolate Stassen. Under this shadow, Stassen in 1958 sought the G.O.P. gubernatorial nomination in his adopted state of Pennsylvania, but was put down by a hostile machine. In 1959 he ran for mayor of Philadelphia, and lost to Dilworth in a definitively Democratic city...

Taking such a sharp and familiar tone with God would be called chutzpah in Yiddish, but what Leonard Bernstein intended for his Third Symphony was a musical statement of Kaddish, the Jewish prayer for the dead.

Last week Boston finally played its Kaddish...
...Pennsylvania's Governor William Scranton traveled only from Harrisburg to Philadelphia to a lunch hosted by Scott Paper Board Chairman Tom McCabe and billed as an attempt to promote Pennsylvania industry. But with increasing talk that such influential Eastern Republicans as Leonard Hall and Meade Alcorn Jr. are urging Scranton to get more national exposure, the guest list was politically impressive. It included National G.O.P. Chairman William Miller, former Chairmen Hall and Alcorn, Massachusetts National Committeeman Richard Treadway, Maine's National Committeeman Bradford Hutchins, Maryland's National Committeeman Edward Miller, former Defense Secretary Neil McElroy, Eisenhower...
