Reverse English. G.O.P. Governors proved equally disappointing: though 18 of the 26 were privately for Rockefeller, only Maryland's Spiro T. Agnew, Rhode Island's John Chafee and Oregon's McCall would publicly commit themselves. Romney, whom Rocky had supported before New Hampshire, began to feel that Rockefeller had used him and pointedly refrained from backing the New Yorker. After Rockefeller's announcement last week, Lenore Romney, the Governor's outspoken wife, allowed that the Michigander "would have continued his campaign had he not felt that Mr. Rockefeller was going to be a candidate...

Rejecting an attractive offer of affiliation from Yale, Woodstock will be a partner with Columbia University and Union Theological Seminary and other institutions in establishing the center; the partnership will permit Jesuit students to attend courses at both Columbia and Union...
...widening interest among American scholars in rediscovering their national esthetic heritage, including fresh appreciation of even the minor figures. A case in point is Jasper Francis Cropsey, a Hudson River landscapist (1823-1900), who last week was honored with an exhibition of 36 oils at the University of Maryland Art Gallery, organized by Museum Fellow Peter Bermingham. A decade ago, Cropsey's landscapes sold for between $200 and $2,000; today they bring between...
