...late George Fingold, found no violation of trust in the matter. It involved recataloguing and storing the material in the building constructed to house the botanical collections belonging to the University. When the transfer took place, the Arboretum was left with books and specimens necessary, in the Corporation's view, to the effective operation of the Arboretum as a research facility. Materials now located in Cambridge are clearly marked "Arnold Arboretum," and are maintained from funds provided for that purpose...

At first glance, many looked like mud attempting to fly; they were that energetic and that saggy. The combination said something blue about man's estate, the approved tone of most contemporary sculpture. But Frink's ostensible purpose has nothing to do with moral messages or with ideals of any kind, not even plastic ones. "Somebody makes a metal armature for me," she explains, "and I start covering...
