...painting belongs to a school which is just what the doctor ordered for critics who carry on indiscriminately about "modernism" in art (see p. 36). Grosser owes nothing to conventional impulses yet is a firmly "representational," sensitive draftsman. His particular passion, however, is color.

But he never dared to do it, for he knew metal pegs might induce mouth irritation. Two years ago Dr. Strock decided to try the new alloy, vitallium. Vitallium is the most satisfactory metal doctors use for patching fractures. Fortnight ago, in the American Journal of Orthodontics...
