Reflecting on the austere ankle-length skirt, the long black coat and the antiseptic white scarf that have become Artist Georgia O'Keeffe's habitual dress, a friend recently observed: "Georgia decided a long time ago how she wanted to look, and she hasn't changed since." Much the same might be said of Georgia O'Keeffe's painting. But if she has not fundamentally changed in her 72 years, the most eminent of U.S. women painters has continued to grow in technical mastery and emotional depth. Last week, at the Worcester (Mass.) Art Museum...
Reaching a Verdict. In Winston-Salem, N.C., a woman juror stalked out of the jury room, snatched her scarf and handbag, told Judge Robert Gambrill: "There was so much talking, fussing and carrying on that I've had all I want of it." Scratching the Surface. In Minneapolis, Municipal Judge Tom Bergin and Patrolman Robert Lyons collided in their cars on their way to a police school on traffic safety...
...western Yoruba country or the rainbow hues of the east. The Emir of Kano arrived at the entrance of the Parliament in a glittering Rolls-Royce, its horn blaring. In walked the popular Finance Minister, Chief Festus Samuel Okotie-Eboh, wearing a straw boater and a figured scarf that trailed 4 yds. behind him. A jovial group of eastern M.P.s drove up in a red Dodge convertible with a big stuffed toy tiger propped up on the back seat.

There was a smart swing to dresses made from printed scarf material, dresses with matching jackets, and two-layer "tunics," i.e., a sheath ending above the knee, with a longer sheath of matching or different color underneath. There was a slim look in hats, a chunky look in jewelry and a gentle look in the spring colors-notably beige, bone and white...
...famed TV shows, Ford's coast-to-coast Star time and WNTA's New York-area Play of the Week, found their material last week in old Broadway melodramas about psychopathic killers (scarf-strangling variety). On a $38,000 budget Play of the Week presented a chilling, full-length production (two hours) of Alexander' Knox's The Closing Door, excellently played by Dane Clark and Kim Hunter. With some $200,000, NBC's Startime presented Audie Murphy in an hour-long condensation of Mel Dinelli's The Man, worked up little interest...
