...which several dozen younger Americans were declared the best and the brightest of their generation in a recent exhibition at New York City's International Design Center. Although the Architectural League of New York started the tradition, Interiors magazine was the 1986 sponsor, and Architect Andrew MacNair (who wound up on the list himself) oversaw the selection process. The last time a new 40 was named, in 1976, postmodernism was just revealing its jolly don's face to the world.

...about Daniloff, neither Reagan nor Shultz let the dispute prevent progress on arms control. Shevardnadze handed Reagan a personal letter from Gorbachev replying to arms- control proposals the President had made in July. The Soviet Foreign Minister also hinted at further concessions toward an INF agreement. He and Shultz wound up their meetings expressing unexpected optimism about prospects for a summit and an INF accord -- if only the Daniloff issue could somehow be resolved...
