Such experiments look recondite in the '70s, and they must have looked quite peripheral when they were done. The audience for them was small compared with that for a radical poet like Vladimir Mayakovsky, and the link that planar sculp ture sought between art and technology was often frustrated by shortages of materials and know-how. Still, these works cast a long shadow. The most surprising aspect of the show is the quality of some of the lesser known artists whose work Curator Rowell has ferreted out. One was Katarzyna Kobro, a Russian woman who worked with Malevich...
...happiest millionaire must have been the Pittsburgh Pirates' Dave Parker. At 27, he owns the biggest contract in baseball (around $6 million for five years) and, by the admission of his peers, the gifts to go with it.

Drew must act as keeper for both his gambling dad (Alex Rocco) and his ne'er-do-well kid brother (Barry Miller). Meanwhile, agents are not breaking down the doors to offer the young lovers performing contracts...
...common consent, the most spectacular hole at Yale is the ninth, a 220-yd. par-three that calls for a tee shot from an elevated promontory that must carry over the water below to a split-level, slipper-shaped green. The narrow green is encircled by trees...
