...Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Turin (160). For a one-man show at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm he gets a 300, but one at the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris is worth only 75; a show at MOMA brings 450, but a retrospective at the Whitney has no listed value.

New York City and environs would become the state of Hudson, and Alamo on the map is basically Texas without the panhandle. Under these circumstances, perhaps Old Glory could use some revitalizing, too, and Whitney Smith of the Flag Research Center in Winchester, Mass., has come up with a striking new design for a national banner...
