    SSI: Trends and Changes, 1974–80

    SSI: Trends and Changes, 1974-80 byLennaKennedy* By the end of 1980, the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program was making monthly cash assistance payments, aver- aging $170, to almost 4.2 million aged, blind, and disabled per- sons. When SSI payments began in January 1974, the number of recipients was 3.2 million and the average payment was $117. Since 1975, both SSI payments and Social Security bene- fits have been automatically adjusted each year to correspond with increases in the Consumer Price Index. A number of other trends in addition to growth can be discerned in the size of the population served, as well as in their categorical, geographic, and age distributions. This article discusses some of these trends and changes, using program data for the end of each cal- endar year through 1980. It also presents a brief summary of the program at the end of that period. The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program differed from State to State. In addition, payments provides cash assistance to residents of the 50 States, the within a State varied depending on criteria such as District of Columbia, and the Northern Mariana Islands special living arrangements-for instance, a recipient who are categorically eligible-aged 65 and older, blind, sharing an apartment or living in a domiciliary care fa- or disabled-and whose income and resources are with- cility.

    James Lee Byars: Sphere Is a Sphere Is a Sphere Is a Sphere 19 March – 11 June 2016 Peder Lund is pleased to announce an exhibition with the American artist James Lee Byars (1932-1997). Originally a student of art and philosophy at Wayne State University, Byars stated that his main influences were "Stein, Einstein, and Wittgenstein." After complet- ing his studies in the United States, Byars spent nearly a decade living in Japan where he, influenced by Zen Buddhism, Noh theatre and Shinto rituals, executed his first performances. In 1958 Byars returned to the United States and forged a relationsip with Dorothy Miller, the first curator of painting and sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. After meeting Byars, Miller allowed him to hold a temporary exhibition in the stairwell of the MoMA which was the artist's New York debut. Since then, the performative events, sculptures, drawings, installations, and wearable art of James Lee Byars has been widely exhibited internationally. Up until his death at the age of 65 Byars had remained in constant pursuit of the concept of perfection and truth. Byars shaped his persona and career into a continuous performance, when his life and art merged with each other. Ken Johnson of the New York Times described him as a "dandified hierophant." At the age of 37 Byars wrote a book titled ½ an autobiography while he sat in a gallery space noting down thoughts and questions as visitors passed through. The book was published afterwards with the additonal title The Big Sample of Byars.

In the following pages all the buildings and noticeable features of the grounds are indexed in the following manner: The letters and figures following the names of buildings in heavy black type (like this) are placed there to ascertain their exact location on the map which appears in this guide. Take for example Administration Building (N i8): 18 N- -N 18 On each side of the map are the letters of the alphabet reading downward; and along the margin, top and bottom, are figures reading and increasing from i, on the left, to 27, on the right; N 18, therefore, implies that the Administration Building will be found at that point on the map where lines, if drawn from N to N east and west and from 18 to 18 north and south, would cross each other at right angles.
