...Enviable Record. A realist, Baggs recognizes the uphill odds he faces against the Herald. "That big thing down the street,'' says he, "is a good newspaper." It is. Its Latin American coverage is superior to the News's, which gets along mostly on the hunches and the contacts of Latin American Editor Hal Hendrix, who almost never leaves Miami. In contrast, the Herald regularly sends men south of the border, often in teams, has a Latin American circulation (at $1 per airmailed copy) of nearly 5,000 that goes as far south as Chile. Although not quite...
...jagged-edged monosyllables. Altogether, it is a novel calculated not to warm the reader but to awe him-a familiar feat for British Novelist James Hanley, 61, whose past novels have won him critical, but not popular, acclaim for their cold fury.

Gordon Winrod of Little Rock. Racist organizations in the South and crackpot groups everywhere photostated these pieces and sent them out as junk mail by the scores of thousands...
Davies was an odd choice for commander in chief in the modernists' battle against the academics. Though Davies was friendly with the original members of the realist Ashcan School,*his own paintings pictured a vernal never-never land of cavorting nymphs and nice little girls, a tearless world where Purity and Joy joined in allegorical dances and virgins herded unicorns beside an unruffled sea. His work had become vastly popular with the public, and Davies' support for the Armory Show was proportionately influential. He rallied a group of wealthy, art-minded New Yorkers (including his own patronesses. Gertrude...
