...only gala he sanctioned for his 100th, the reclusive songwriter stayed home. Smart move. Taped for broadcast on CBS on May 27, the show may sound better on television than it did live in Carnegie Hall. But it did have its high points: Broadway and TV Star Nell Carter hip-hopping through Alexander's Ragtime Band, Michael Feinstein singing I Love a Piano, and Garrison Keillor reciting All Alone. But then there were the lows: tinny amplification, an overpowering brass section, Bea Arthur's oomphless Hostess with the Mostes' and Leonard Bernstein's self- indulgent twelve-tone parody...
Running for seats on the Board along with Issac are Evelyn Fox Keller '63, Ruth Messinger '62, Michael D. Tanzer '57 and Nell Irvin Painter, who graduated from the Graduate School of Education in 1974.

Had he been white, the concern would...
...classic. Martin Hehman of the Drake Hotel in Chicago cites maturity: "As you get older you don't drink all night, so you want a drink that lets you know you had a drink." Then there is the aesthetic appeal of cold, clear liquid in a crystal cone. At Nell's, a New York club, Aspiring Actress Sally Carruthers wears a flared crinoline mini to match her martini glass. "Tip me upside down and . . . well, the same silhouette," she giggles...
