...results belie Campbell's convoluted logic. The "beating" the Canadiens administered to the Soviet Central Army Sports Club did not show on the scoreboard: the game ended in a 3-3 tie. Moreover, Central Army defeated the Boston Bruins, and the second Soviet team, the Wings, beat the Chicago Black Hawks, clubs that are leading their respective N.H.L. divisions. All told, the Russian teams ended their tour with five wins, two defeats...
...first formation. After several rounds slight irregularities in the pattern crop up: one dancer fixes her hair, another brushes something off her leg, yet another glances quickly at the ceiling. Several rounds later members of the collective blurt out word associations with the "post-modern" aesthetic: "symmetry...precision...logic...formalism." All the while the extraordinarily funny dismembering of the repititive pattern continues...
...should the Third World redress these grievances, real and imagined? There are many solutions, offered with varying degrees of reason and logic by spokesmen for poor nations, but they all come down to one. As Economist Samuel Parmar sums it up: "The developed nations must accept a new lifestyle." At the U.N., the Group of 77 has proposed that the First World double or triple its financial-aid contributions. Such capital transfers, moreover, should no longer be voluntary, but mandated-perhaps by a tax on commodities. Under this proposed "new order," national currencies, such as the U.S. dollar and German...
...back echoes of Constantine. Willie and Stringfellow's argument is untenable and dangerous to a free society. For the State to impose secular law in the religious sphere is at the root of an oppressive society in which man's spirit is made captive to the civil order. The logic of their position leads them to break down the exclusive nature of the church and its right to decide who can be a member. Possibly quotas should be applied to church membership? The church must be a responsible member of its host society, but not at the sacrifice...
...wharves unfolds. This is his sculptural landscape−as the marble quarries of Serravezza are Henry Moore's. The Manhattan docks have furnished both the material and the imagery for his work: the gray, salt-pickled balks of timber; their ponderous iron bolts, cleats and straps; the explicit logic of big practical structure. Pieces like Hankchampion (1960) are inseparable from that context. Its salvaged wooden beams, bolted together and strung with chain, are a homage to the plain speech of early industrial architecture. There is also a strong connection to abstract-expressionist painting. As James Monte points...
