...Test match, Jim Laker had accomplished roughly the equivalent of pitching a no-hit game in the World Series. And almost singlehanded he had kept the Ashes, symbol of international cricket supremacy, in England. ¶ On Utah's glaring, glass-smooth salt flats, Germany's Wilhelm Herz wasted one lap when timing equipment failed, still got the last whisper of speed out of his streamlined NSU motorcycle. His 500 cc. engine churning up to 8,000 r.p.m., Herz whooshed back and forth on the measured mile at an average 210 m.p.h., the first time any cyclist had passed...
Another feature of the concert was the performance of two Baroque flute sonatas with the accompaniment of a harpsichord, played nicely by Sy Hayden. Flautist Eric Herz overcame some nervousness at the beginning of a sonata by Loeillet and went on to play Bach's Sonata in G minor with assurance.

After ten days of testimony the trial ended last week in a frenzy of name-calling. George Washington Herz, Jelke's attorney, characterized Pat Ward as a "Fifth Amendment prostitute with crocodile tears." Jelke, he said, was just a "little toy poodle."

Weinrich will play Chaconne in C minor by Buxtehude, Variations on "Warum betruebst du dich, mein Herz" by Scheidt, Toccata and Fugue in F major by Bach, Sixth Trio-Sonata in G major by Bach, and a Toccata by Robert Lamp...
...great night, the glittering audience found six pianos on the stage. First Liszt, nostrils quivering and long locks tossing,* thundered and rippled an introduction and the theme from I Puritani. Then the pianistically mannered Thalberg played his variation; Liszt provided a transition to the offering of Pixis; Herz came next, then Czerny, whose knuckle-cracking exercises have been the nemesis of piano students for the last hundred years. Liszt, from his piano, interjected a Fuocoso molto energico; the slender Chopin added an exquisite largo. At last, in his finale, Liszt wittily and skillfully parodied the styles of the others-except...
