...meant to provide absolutes. Unfortunately, they no longer provide even models, unless they happen to be political activists. The civil rights movement, the Kennedys, McCarthy?each of these sufficed for a time, until submerged by death or defeat. But Viet Nam continued, Chicago receded. Nixon won. The remaining target is the nearest at hand: the vexed, vulnerable university...

...North Carolina-born painter named Kenneth Noland, 45, have been vehemently praised and just as savagely dissected in art magazines, while remaining relatively unappreciated by the general museum going public. The reason is that Noland's paintings, from the time he first began to attract attention with his "target" canvases of 1957, have remained icily symmetrical, uncompromisingly abstract, and thus seemingly impersonal. The debate has raged over whether (as his foes charged) they are merely decorative, or whether (as his friends claimed) they are simply so difficult that most people do not bother to grapple with them...

...floor and walked around it until he lost track of its top and bottom. He decided that the "most neutral" place to start from was its center, and proceeded to pour, stain and swab paint in concentric circles outward. Noland played with half a dozen colors in such target paintings, devising hundreds of dashing combinations. He moved on to chevrons, then to diamond-shaped canvases.

...Rhodes scholar, a graduate of Yale Law School ('68) and a Negro, Attorney Stanley Sanders is a prime target for recruiters from the nation's most eminent law firms. No fewer than four of them have been courting him for months, and none more assiduously than Wyman-Kuchel, the California firm of former Republican Senator Thomas Kuchel. Last week Senior Partner Eugene Wyman himself squired Sanders to lunch at The Bistro, a modish Beverly Hills restaurant.

Litton's latest merger is far smaller than James Ling's $425 million J. & L. deal, and does not even involve an American concern. The FTC's target is a pair of West German typewriter makers in which Litton (1968 sales: $1.9 billion) bought a majority interest last January. Their worldwide sales total some $52 million, but only $7.5 million comes from the U.S., where their Triumph-Adler brand of typewriters accounts for a minuscule share of the market. But the FTC complains that the acquisition tends to "lessen competition" in violation of the Clayton Antitrust...
