...opposite approach-pure Olympian effort-paid far better dividends for Canada's pert, blue-eyed Nancy Greene, 24. Although she was the defending ladies' Alpine skiing champion, Nancy's chances seemed hopeless after she fell badly last month and strained the ligaments in an ankle. Last week, vowing "I'll either win or I'll fall," she strapped on her white helmet with TIGER emblazoned across the front and slashed through the giant slalom course with such abandon that she beat Runner-Up Annie Famose of France for the gold medal by almost three seconds...

Attractive women, however, almost invariably appreciate him?and vice versa. Manhattan Freelance Writer (and Jet Setter) Gloria Steinem finds him "overpowering." Actress Angie Dickinson describes him as "fascinating and funny." Galbraith's yet-to-be-published India diaries return the compliment.

Among the recognized leaders is Los Angeles' Larry Bell, 28, who began evolving his coolly opalescent glass boxes five years ago after an early career in painting evoked "a gnawing frustration with two-dimensional form." To portray light and color in a Platonically pure and idealized fashion, he began painting glass cubes with abstract designs, found that the paler his colors became, the more easily spectators were able to ignore his boxes as objects, enjoy them instead for what they did to light. The technology behind Bell's boxes is highly sophisticated, but he dismisses...
