David Landon's three poems, all partaking of the dominant love motif, are slightly more complex. The best, "Quattrocento," is cleverly constructed and involves some striking visual imagery. "Beneath a Sky" is not as well developed as the others: its images are forced, its phrases turgid, and the adjective "fishy-stinking" is enough to make any reader stop right there...
...studies and does a much better job. (Incidentally, census figures show a very large rise in the percentage of students on the labor market.) He is less interested in the spectacular sports and participates to a greater degree in sports. He is much more interested in the visual arts and, certainly as compared to the thirties' much less interested in politics. On the whole, I would say he makes better use of his time than a generation...
Esthetics. Vortex is the creation of two San Franciscans: Film Maker Jordan Belson, 32, in charge of visual effects; TV Producer Henry Jacobs, 34, who handles the sound. Working together, the two present "esthetically gratifying audio-visual experiences probably related to basic instincts in the fear of loud noise and the fear of falling." Belson's equipment includes standard slide projectors, rotating prisms, a series of slotted globes, a strobo-scopic flicker machine that has the effect, at 15 flashes per second, of inducing the shakes in some viewers (Belson keeps his flicker to a safe eight flashes...
...Grisly Package. Belli's most noteworthy contribution to tort-trials is in his use of "demonstrative evidence," i.e., visual aids. He will take his skeleton, named "Elmer," into the courtroom and show the jury by experts' testimony exactly where plaintiff broke a bone, then stalk to his portable blackboard to draw diagrams of the accident scene. Often he chalks figures to justify the damages he is demanding-so much per hour for pain, so much for medical bills, so much in lost wages, etc., etc.-occasionally makes a deliberate mistake in addition, so as to let an alert...
...show. Since October 1957, he has appeared on a daily CBS-TV news program as a news analyst, but is limited to a 90-second spot. Behind the News provides him with 30 minutes for the same job. He mixes in film clips, unrehearsed dialogues with special guests, and visual aids with his own commentary. But more time is not enough. Smith's first two programs (devoted to the U.S. visit of Russia's Anastas Mikoyan and the ascendancy of French President Charles de Gaulle) were not very deep. As usual, television's all-seeing eye dominated...
