...space. Victor started to produce prerecorded stereo tapes three years ago. Two dozen other outfits are also in the business, and other big guns of the industry are gradually warming to the idea. Westminster has been marketing stereo tapes for a year and a half, and both Mercury and Angel are announcing their first stereo releases. Most of the other majors are recording music on stereo tape and holding it for release when the market seems ready. Victor plans to double its stereo-tape production, hopes to have 100 items in the catalogue (instead of the present...
...midst of drought, a town's prayers were doubly answered in last week's Staring Match on CBS's Studio One. First, in spotless white business suit, came Mr. White (James Daly), a winning stranger who knew everyone by name. He owned up to being "an angel o' the Lord" sent to find the town a well.

Like Aleman and Ruiz Cortines, Carbajal is a native of Veracruz and now holds the patronage-heavy post of Interior Minister. A onetime professor of history and Supreme Court justice, he is bald, calm and personable...
...preferred not to play Beethoven because he felt he was not yet worthy of the music. Along with the big technique and virile style, Lipatti had a remarkable ability, as his teacher Nadia Boulanger noted, to "see better and hear more than we do." In the present, excellent Angel recording, there are few traces of the deadly strain under which Lipatti played. His Bach Partita No. 1 is as coolly articulated and elegant as a jeweled clock, and his Mozart Sonata No. 8 in A Minor (K. 310) seems the reflection of an absorbed and unruffled musical mind. Only...
