It acquired Houston's Duncan Foods Co., purveyors of coffee under a number of brand names (Fleetwood, Butter-Nut, Admiration). Austin, 49, who joined Coca-Cola's legal department in 1949 and was named president two years ago, sees the merger as another step toward Coke's first $1 billion year (1963 sales: $637,424,475).

Italian Music in the Age of Exploration (The Fleetwood Singers; Lyrichord. stereo). Skillful, spirited performances of madrigals by a dozen all-but-forgotten composers of the 16th century. The names include Luzzasco Luzzaschi, Costanzo Porta and Gioseppe Caimo, and the themes have to do with the hazards of love. The music, performed by seven singers with occasional guitar and harpsichord accompaniment, has wit moments of placid beauty, and a colorfully antique...
