BACH: CONCERTO IN D MINOR; CHOPIN: CONCERTO NO. 2 IN F MINOR (London). Vladimir Ashkenazy's technical brilliance is enough by itself to rivet the listener's attention, but it is only one factor in a superb performance.

Already the paper loss on the stock has grown to a staggering $6.82 billion, more than double the gross national product of Ireland, and has cost each 100-share stockholder $1,288. This has been a primary factor in the recent drop in the stock market, and nobody on Wall Street doubts that the FCC investigation is the cause of Bell's decline.
