Destitute Childhood. What Chaplin has delivered is the expectably professional production, fine-honed and highly polished, with funny moments and some touching ones. Yet many readers will wish they had Reinhardt's opportunity to see the great pantomimist act out the high points, for without Chaplin's visual art, the story he tells is in some ways curiously flat, formal, and unrevealing...
...volunteered in response to a newspaper story. Each trainee received two 45 minute periods of driving instruction per week with a graduate student in Professor Loft's department, as well as a two-hour classroom session. The first classroom session was devoted to tests of visual acuity, including distance judgment, reaction time, ability to distinguish colors, see in the dark and recover from headlight glare.

When the program has been evaluated, Loft plans to invite...

Probably the most basic problem is the Festival's apparent desire to please the whole of Boston; every year the judges insist on including large numbers of unimaginative realists while neglecting some of the bolder reaches of modern art. And at the same time, the Festival's system of judging (a painting requires the approval of only one of the five judges to be included in the show) increases the likelihood that much undistinguished art will be displayed...
