...acknowledges that "Humphrey's base is relatively wide?now?but it is not strong." That is, many of the delegates now counted as committed or favor able to Humphrey are under no compulsion to remain so. Also, there have been no binding stands taken in some of the biggest Northern delegations, such as those from Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, although Humphrey is thought to have considerable strength in several of them. Chicago's Mayor Richard Daley, who could be the single most influential delegation chief at the convention he will host, maintains a cagey silence, although...
...YORK: From Slums to Suburbs Black poverty is most evident in the crumbling cores of Northern and Western cities.

With the advent of the machined precision of the 1920s Bauhaus modernism, handcrafted art nouveau became...
Before long, though, the old feud is heated up again. It culminates in a six-man battle on a beach by the bleak northern sea that is like some scene from the Morte d'Arthur. Heads are stricken from shoulders and go bouncing down the sand; bodies are spitted on spear and sword. The effect is stately as a tapestry, stylized as a morality play...
