...present plans-drawn up by the University Planning Office-were determined by popular sentiment expressed at public hearings held by a special Sub-Committee of the City Council appointed early this year by Mayor Barbara Ackermann...
...existence is spot-lighted in the arena of The Clowns. On the beach, they will later encounter Picasso's "Seated Bather" (1930), a skeletai nightmare perched at the water's edge, turning the earlier symbol of the beach as social wasteland into the psychic boundary between the conscious and sub-conscious. Picasso's surrealism, captured also in the implicit and explicit imagery of the theme of the artist and his studio, or in his "Girl before a Mirror", raised the question of identity through images now hauntingly familiar from Bergman's Persona; the struggles of the psyche distorting the very...
They came as they always come, carrying their sacraments with them; wineskins over the shoulder and carefully rolled joints in their pockets. The rank and vile of sub and inner urbia filed neatly into the beige somnolence of Symphony Hall.

That fleet will certainly include a powerful armada of nuclear-powered, missile-carrying submarines. Currently the Russians' most potent undersea weapon is the Y-class sub, called Yankee in American navy parlance, which is comparable in size and speed to the U.S. Polaris.

Everywhere there are always soldiers: some obviously on duty, their Uzzi sub-machine guns in their hands, very cautious, very intent: but most simply milling in the streets, and always several "tramping" on any given road at any given time. This seeming paradox of soldiers who never seem to be on duty (it is, in fact, a misleading impression), is a fitting metaphor for the compromise which Israel attempts to make between life-styles of war and peace: to live like the city-state...
