Lights, Blots, Sets at Sea. The City Opera's new Coq d'Or offered a lot more to see and hear. Designers Ming Cho Lee and Jose Varona filled the New York State Theater stage with a zany array of colors and shapes, set off from time to time by flickering strobe lights and blats from offstage brass players. Soprano Beverly Sills and Bass-Baritone Norman Treigle curved their pliant voices brilliantly around the sinuous Rimsky-Korsakov melodies, and the results restored to life a witty, fantastic and unduly neglected score...
...Parsons, who was a Navy guerrilla in World War II (and later told about it in Rendezvous by Submarine), promptly set about rebuilding. By 1963, Grimm, Parsons and colleagues were able to sell their 50% interest for $6.6 million to a group of Filipino businessmen and investors headed by Jose B. Fernandez, now 43 and the company's chairman. U.S.-educated (Fordham, Harvard Business School) and a member of a wealthy Manila family, Fernandez tapped as president a young American: Donald I. Marshall, 37, son of one of Lusteveco's prewar managers and a Lusteveco staffer who joined...
...draw on only a pout here and a wiggled eyebrow there, which is far from enough. Shelley Winters and David Opatoshu contribute a pair of luridly overdrawn caricatures as the well-meaning parents who stand by helplessly while their son switches his ambitions from pharmacy to footlights. By contrast, Jose Ferrer and Elaine May seem almost drawn from life as the flamboyant impresario of a pass-the-hat theatrical workshop and his daffy Duse of a daughter. Their world of raucous flea-bitten theatrics seems, oddly enough, more wholesome than Mom's chicken soup...
...agencies are supporting efforts to get conclusive data. The first findings of chromosome changes in blood cells, reported by Dr. Maimon M. Cohen, at Buffalo's Children's Hospital (TIME, March 24), were confirmed by the University of Oregon's Dr. Samuel Irwin, working with Dr. Jose Egozcue. They compared the white blood cells of eight LSD users with those of nine nonusers. Six of the acidheads showed a marked increase in chromosomal breaks. Two who had tak en massive doses showed a small, deformed chromosome, characteristic of a type of chronic leukemia that attacks adults...
...scenes in Portia's Belmont, Ed Wittstein has designed an outdoor garden setting dominated by an enormous tree branch with leaves of -- you guessed it -- gold. Portia appears in a peach gown (designed, like all the other costumes, by Jose Varona) and carrying a parasol. It is not long before we realize that this Portia, in the hands of Barbara Baxley, is a thoughtless, superficial woman, and probably frigid to boot. Miss Baxley's nasal and mindless mode of speaking doesn't help much, either; she constitutes no improvement over Katharine Hepburn, who was so disastrous a Portia...
