...Bjoerling's masterly reading of the Ingemisco. Birgit Nilsson is all fire; Lili Chookasian and Ezio Flagello both have big, warm voices. The difficulties stem from Erich Leins-dorf's conducting of the Boston Symphony. The pace is much too slow. The long, dramatic Otello-like lines enshroud the listener rather than move him. Tullio Serafin's interpretation of the Requiem (Angel) is still the best...

Last week 6,500 grocers in 44 states lighted candled birthday cakes in their windows to mark, proudly...
...Coventry charitable Peeping Toms get for their money the following eyeful: 1) One large white horse; 2) One pair of pink tights (blanket-thick); 3) One enormous wig of flowing hair sufficient almost to enshroud the wearer; 4) One bare-faced Coventry girl who sits on the horse, concealed by tights and wig. Last week P. Toms, disgusted by the Coventry swindle, swarmed to St. Albans, drawn by this foursquare, unequivocal guarantee...
