...world better than Constable's, or think we do, especially after the splendid Turner retrospective at London's Royal Academy (TIME, Dec. 23, 1974). Now, the same service has been done for Constable, with an exhibition of 335 of his paintings, drawings and watercolors, organized for the Tate Gallery in London by three art historians, Leslie Parris, Ian Fleming-Williams and Conal Shields. It celebrates Constable's 200th birthday and is the largest showing of his work ever. For the first time, one can see the whole man under one roof-from the juvenilia (a graffito...

...President -and thereby revived the national nightmare of political assassination -solely to win a new trial for her master and mentor, Charles Manson. The psychopathic guru had been sentenced to jail for life, along with three of his women followers, for the sadistic slayings of Actress Sharon Tate and six others in 1969. Somehow the act of threatening Ford made sense to Squeaky Fromme. Referring to the Manson "family," a Department of Justice official said: "They think that the people will say 'Hey, they mean business. They kill Presidents. Let's free Manson so they...
