At the Queens Museum there is a permanent exhibition, which went on view last April, called "The Heroic Spirit: Classical Sculpture from Ancient Greece to Michelangelo". The works are plaster casts, on loan from the Metropolitan Museum - plaster casts of exceptionally good quality, taken directly from the originals more than...

Comment Comment, Pt. I by Lawrence Weschler. One of the main justifications for the huge budget allotments granted Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative (known as Star Wars) was that there was a good chance that the Soviets would go bankrupt in attempting to match us, contraption for contraption. Over the last 3 years Star Wars has diverted some...
