...finest of the new accessions are two small linden-wood legionaries of death, carved in the mid-sixteenth century. They reflect the preoccupation with death then prevalent and resemble the skeletal figures in Holbein's Dance of Death, done earlier in the same century. With deft control of the wood, the craftsman of the Busch-Reisinger pieces grimly records the grotesque expressions on the legionaries' faces and the torn flesh as it hangs limply from their skeletons...
...Museum surrounds this outstanding work with many of Picasso's graphics and watercolors. Especially beautiful is the 1918 pencil drawing, Bathers, which displays the sure control of sinuous line that characterized his so-called "Neo-Classical" period. Also of great interest is his View of Horta De Ebro, a small, lyric landscape done in 1900. The more than twenty pieces in this exhibit demonstrate the completeness and general high standards of the Fogg's acquisitions. For a university museum, one could hardly imagine a better record of connoisseurship...
...bannered slogan: TEENS TELLING TEENS IN THE WORLD'S DECADE OF DESTINY. Layman Ted W. Engstrom of the Evangelical Free Church, president of Youth for Christ International, urged his plaid-shirted and bobby-soxed audience to write down the motto: "Christ Constantly in Command, Christ Completely in Control," and to put it into practice at school, at home, "and in parked cars on dates."

...aggressive at 60-plus, quit to express her opposition to cold, stolid Chairman Allan P. Kirby, 67. It was a bitter end to a 25-year association. Kirby's inherited Woolworth millions had bankrolled Bob Young from the 19305 onward, had put him in command of Alleghany, which controls the New York Central Railroad, the $3 billion Investors Diversified Services group, and 50% of the Missouri Pacific Railroad's Class B stock. Last week Wall Streeters were betting that Anita Young would place her considerable savvy and stockholding behind one or more of the high-powered outsiders...
...garment manufacturers are not impressed by Hong Kong's voluntary quotas. "We're interested in U.S. control, not what Hong Kong tells us that they are going to ship," said one garment-industry official. The U.S. garment industry feels that other low-wage countries will follow Hong Kong's earlier example in sending quota-free cotton goods to the U.S., knocking the bottom out of many products of the U.S. textile industry. Thus, despite Hong Kong's restrictions, U.S. garment makers will continue to lobby for tighter legislative restrictions on garment imports into...
