...businessmen, economists and public officials up to and including the President of the United States. Out of the 400 pages of copy that the correspondents sent to New York, plus a mass of other research and reports, Senior Editor Edward L. Jamieson, Writer Marshall Loeb and Researcher Piri Halasz reached the consensus reported in the cover story on the new and exuberant U.S. economy. The new mood of confidence and optimism offers a striking contrast to the temper reported exactly one year ago this week in our June 1, 1962 issue when the cover featured Bear v. Bull on Wall...
...fresh assembling of facts and seeking of opinions. Our aim is to provide in one article both a brief summary of the recent past with an indication of what is to come. For this week's survey, our reporters in the field filed 250,000 words. Researcher Piri Halasz, who covered the "head office town" of New York, interviewed 15 top executives and economists. Her report to Writer Marshall Loeb and Business Editor Robert Christopher totaled 50 pages. In Cleveland, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Detroit, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Atlanta and Washington, correspondents talked to some 35 chairmen and presidents...

Director Sarah Caldwell saw how much mime matters in this drama; conductor Lazla Halasz perceived the continual recurrence of counterpoint and fashioned a clear texture to exploit the score's intricate dove-tailing of motifs.

But under the expert leadership of Conductor Laszlo Halasz, and with a fine lead performance from Tenor Giuseppe Campora, the opera emerged at least in parts as the melodic masterpiece that the French have come to regard it (the Paris Opera-Comique has it in its regular repertory, as does La Scala). Outstanding were the fine tenor aria...
...Pearl Fishers played so seldom? Because, thinks Conductor Halasz, modern audiences are interested only in name singers, not in the opera itself-and the hero of Pearl Fishers is really the score. Nonetheless, he thinks it will become "standard opera fare in the U.S." within a few years...
