Poll results showed that popular Liberal Leader David Steel would add about nine percentage points to Alliance support if he were the coalition's head instead of the soft-edged, florid Roy Jenkins, the Social Democratic Party's leader. So Alliance politicians decided to put Steel in the forefront for the remainder of the campaign. Steel, 45, was rated by MORI as the candidate who has most impressed British voters during the campaign. Even so, the Alliance will probably not displace Labor as the official opposition, because Britain's electoral system favors the two established parties...
...Reagan and the Europeans and could well represent the hope for the future. In particular, Japan's emphasis on high technology and cooperation between the government and private industry should serve as a model for the West. High technology creates new industries to replace the old, dying ones like steel and automobiles that simply can not be salvaged. Government-private sector cooperation allows for flexible long-term planning, essential if the shortcomings of the market system are to be rectified...
...permanent collections of such museums at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Guggenheim and Whitney and the Hirschorn museum in Washington. Run your hand over his 64 inch bronze. "Thebes III" currently on exhibit at the Carpenter Center, and it feels alive, in an age dominated by steel fabricated sculpture. Hadzi is a determined texturalist, sculpting pieces which have a natural quality to them, as if they were made of the earth. The bronze doors on St. Paul's Church in Rome are his, and his monumental pieces stand in New York's Lincoln Center, outside Boston City Hall...
...finished form is still a year away, but in his studio a half-size cardboard model made by Hadzi's assistant Romolo Deldeo '82 stands as a preview. Once again, three posts of different colored six-foot tall granite blocks act as a base for stainless steel units on top. With what Hadzi calls a "mysterious, mystical effect," water will come out the top, disappear into the stainless steel, and electrically recycle itself. The water never reaches the ground...
...Harvard Square project poses a weight problem. With only 20-ton steel beams holding up the ceiling of the subway station beneath it. Omphalos cannot exceed 35 tons. By working back and forth from a half-size model to a hand-held quarter-size one. Hadzi hopes to accommodate the restriction. Eventually he will build a full-size model, perhaps in the Carpenter Center basement. Clearly, a concern for public safety puts constraints on Hadzi's work. But it was reassuring in the late 60s when war protestors climbed to the top of Thermopylae outside Boston City Hall...
