...dungaree-clad London housewife, Frink had her first exhibition while still in art school. Last week her tabletop bronzes were on view at Manhattan's Bertha Schaefer Gallery. At first glance, many looked like mud attempting to fly; they were that energetic and that saggy. The combination said something blue about man's estate, the approved tone of most contemporary sculpture. But Frink's ostensible purpose has nothing to do with moral messages or with ideals of any kind, not even plastic ones.

We can't do all the things necessary for the U.S. to do -in this country and abroad-and still proceed on the 'business-as-usual' basis. One of our first sacrifices must be a willingness to accept higher taxes, if necessary, in order to accomplish our purpose of keeping America ahead of the world on all counts.
