Compared to surrealism, the works of Balthus are realistic, conservative. Compared to most conservative paintings, they are deadly nightshade. Constructed with mathematical care, painted large and sombre, each conveys an atmosphere or a character with almost malignant intensity. Balthus' paintings of children, for example, suggest their potentialities as sadists, lechers and wretches as clearly as their childish charm. If this austere originality appears incapable of lightness, even morbid, most visitors last week conceded its maturity and credited it with at least one painting of extraordinary power-a portrait of Artist André Derain...
...external way of mending the present system, the tutors should assign or suggest tutorial work which will help a Senior's preparation. Internally it can be doctored by adding another and advanced course to the two elementary courses in the related departments now required of every honors candidate. This supplementary requirement will not seem an imposition if the student is permitted to have free choice. A third course will insure the system in two ways: first, by escaping the fangs of over-specialization in the correlated field; second, by making the student acquire another point of view, another method...
Teutons naturally dislike Latins, more specifically Italians dislike Germans, and last week Der Führer and II Duce worked like stevedores to keep their peoples sold on the Rome-Berlin Axis. The press of the world had done everything possible to suggest that Italy and Germany can no longer be friends, now that Germany has engulfed Austria and thus brought German soldiers down to the Brenner Pass frontier of Italy, immediately below which live 613,000 Italian subjects, many of whom were Austrian Tyroleans before the War and are as fiercely German as A. Hitler himself...
Strenuous efforts were made by foes of the Government last week to suggest with screaming headlines that the Cabinet was "splitting." On the theory that the oppression of Jews in German-Austria must have deeply moved Britain's Jewish War Secretary, Mr. Leslie Hore-Belisha, dispatches left London and made world-wide news to the effect that Mr. Hore-Belisha had "threatened to resign" from the Cabinet, taking with him Malcolm MacDonald (Dominions), W. G. A. Ormsby-Gore (Colonies), W. S. Morrison (Agriculture) and Walter E. Elliott (Scotland...
...while the university's trustees investigated the charges, President Johnson sniffed. He declared that the General Alumni Association includes only 253 of the 8,000 living Howard alumni, that it employs tactics "almost equivalent to gangsterism." His answer to the charges: 1) He had asked Dean Slowe to suggest an acting dean, sent her a note hoping she would soon be back; 2) Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes had found "no implication of dishonesty" in the handling of PWA money or PWA lumber; 3) Laboratory Assistant Thompson had failed to produce evidence of a seduction...
