The Boston Globe from Boston, Massachusetts • 35

35 MEDLEYBILL FRIPP The Boston Globe Thursday, March 16, 1972 In the tunnel of art First we took a great idea for a pretty shoe. And then we knocked it full of holes. After that, we strung it up. Not bad, we thought. So we put a big tall heel on it, added a nice thick platform and did it all up in shiny crinkle patent.

And there you have it. Another pretty shoe from Thorn McAn. Available in most stores in black, white, bone or navy. Only $8.99 An esthetic happening in, of all places, the subway. The once drab South Station passageway linking the Orange and Blue T-lines is a bright spectrum of rainbow colors, its lights programmed to blink so that the pedestrian can play a walking game- measuring his rate against them.

The passageway was designed by The Architects Collaborative Robert V. Kennedy, who was awarded $5000 Rockefeller Family Foundation money by the co-sponsors of the competition, the Institute of Contemporary Art and the MBTA. It cost $9000 to brighten up the passageway, reports Kennedy. To renovate the station itself would have been "prohibitively expensive," he says. Traveling the subways now is like experiencing a movable art show.

At Aquarium you can gaze at fish, at Arlington the above-ground landmarks, and at Government Center an abstract flag. The MBTA has spruced up or thoroughly modernized 18 of its stations in the past several years and, said an MBTA spokesman, has "vast plans" for Essex. A citadel of arts and knowledge, the Smithsonian Institution became a culinary haven for the first time in its history the other day as Julia Child presented her "Triple Entente for the Ides of March" menu for hundreds of Capitol women. Proceeds from the demonstration, which featured eggs in aspic, Mediterranean sea bass and baming crepe, will benefit WGBH in Boston and the Smithsonian Associates. Jean Claude Killy was so busy taking ski movies at Waterville Valley the other day that he missed the big dinner held in his honor.

He's out of sports car racing and flying a plane because his woman of the moment thinks it is "too dangerous," Killy said Franklin Park Zoo wasn't in the panda competition because it lacks the facilities, reports spokesman Patrick Nolan The trustees and council of the Friends of the Boston Symphony Orchestra will take a mini-trip to New York April 6-9, hear Arthur Fiedler conduct-the Pops at Carnegie and William Stein berg conduct Symphony at Philharmonic, returning by Amtrak. Hopefully, you'll never have to deal with F. Lee Bailey in the courtroom. You can meet him in happier surroundings tomorrow at the Jordan Marsh book where he'll be signing copies of his book, "The Defense Never Rests," from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

she is, Miss Boston." A Misa Boston pageant, billed as an "official preliminary" to Atlantic City's Miss America contest, will be staged at Hynes Auditorium April 22, sponsored by the Jamaica Plain-Forest Hills Kiwanis Club. The Diet Workshop announces that the state winners of its recent contest are Mrs. Pearl Ahearn of Brockton, who shed 103 pounds in seven months, and Donald Ellis of Framingham, 56-pound loser and the only man picked out of 20 women finalists. Carla Meyer, a former New York deb and star of "Godspell," spent last summer in a stone hut in the French Pyrenees presenting guitar concerts for villagers and travelers. Latest fad among music lovers and phone freaks is Phoney Tunes, in which tunes are created by pushing telephone call buttons.

The opening bars of Beethoven's Fifth is said to be a favorite. The Massachusetts Horticultural Society will present its annual Ecology Award to Arthur Godfrey Wednesday.

Sold by the acre AUCTION Continued from have we In the other Page 33 case, there was some con Although the walls of the Independence Room were plastered with topographical maps and Polaroid snapshots, the buyers for the most part were buying sight unseen. They clutched the Land Auction Bureau's green brochures emblazoned with the slogan, "LAND the greatest investment on EARTH," and took their chances. Keith Van Buskirk, spokesman for the family-owned business, explained that the buyer puts down a 10 percent deposit on the property he's won by the raise of a hand or twink of an ear.

He then has 21 days to inspect the property. Twenty-one days, and if fusion about the title. They bought the piece back." The psychological pace of auctions is never conducive to the emptor caveat-ing, however, and McGrath advised all buyers to research the area, the taxes, the. facilities, the zoning regulations, before making the final commitment. The roar of the ocean, the smell of the pines and the vision of skyrocketing land prices was infectious.

Buyers were happy land drunk, you could say. They were like the two suburban women who chipped in on 23 acres in Frankfort, for $6100 and could barely talk. "My husband promised he'd never hold it against me," said one, while the other interjected, "It's for the children." Spectators abounded like the architectural designer from Stockbridge, who was comparing land values. Or the couple from Springfield, who wandered in by accident to register amazement. Or the cynic who was turned off by the whole affair: "It's like buying from a Sears Roebuck catalogue.

Land is much too sacred to sell like this." Tf3 OEQ fl Ulnfi flic?

However, when the auction began, this did not turn out to be exactly the case. All but $100 will be refunded, clarified Joe Finn, but it's $100 which can be applied to the purchase of another plot of land. John McGrath of the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division, who was in attendance, said: "I'll have to discuss that with them. It's fair to claim administrative costs but I think they'll have to advertise it that way." McGrath, who checks out at least 10 out-of-state land sales a month, added that the Land Auction Bureau's operation was on the level.

"They've had more than 500 sales and our office has only had two complaints. One was purely a case of buyer's remorse, waking up the next morning and faying, 'My God, what just in time to miss 10 The Great Knox Food Economy Contest acres in Marlow, N.H., which went to a man in yellow shirt.
