...years ago, prospering Watercolorist Dehn had a yen to go back to his crayons and litho stone. Last week the 60 lithographs he had finished in his spare moments were on exhibit at a Manhattan gallery. A good many of them were in his old vein: New Yorkerish jibes at solemn nuns, nightclubbers & dilettantes. But most gallerygoers preferred his Minnesota farmyards and Colorado mountain landscapes.

A few minutes of quiet blood-letting on the part of 300 students and teachers will satisfy the University's responsibility toward meeting...
...bluff's surface was littered with fragments of pottery and alabaster, but these were modern for Egypt, perhaps 2,000 years old. Dr. Emery was not interested in them. He sized up the lay of the land. Then he pointed, like a "dowser" sensing a deep vein of water. "There's something big," he said, "and very old under there...
