Playing at number two, Jackie Corrigan had the toughest match for the racquetwomen, going the distance against Dartmouth's Lita Remsen before winning the fifth game, 15-13. The victory followed on the heels of a five-game loss to Penn's Karen Kelso the day before, when Corrigan played superbly but came up just short against the third-ranked college players...
Earthworks and land art are notoriously difficult to get into a museum -in fact part of their aim was to escape its confines-and at the Whitney they are present, in a ghostly way, through slide projection. But there is one unusually gifted land artist at the Hirshhorn, Lita Albuquerque. By dusting isolated stones or strewing sharp, evanescent blotches of pigment in desert places (the color is then blown away by the wind), Albuquerque produces an exquisitely fugitive interference with the landscape, like a fleeting pictograph, an acceleration of cultural time in the great stasis of nature.

She remembers Charlie better than Charlie remembers her. In his autobiography, he did not even mention her by name and dismissed their marriage in three sentences...
