Following up a fast trip to Jewish resort hotels in New York's Catskill Moun tains, where he won strong applause from mainly Democratic audiences, Lodge made a tour of New York beaches with Gover nor Nelson Rockefeller, and proved that the G.O.P. politicians who had considered Patrician Lodge too snooty to appeal to plebeian voters didn't know their man. Recognized by beachgoers as the strapping, handsome guy they had seen battling the Russians in televised United Nations debates, Lodge had a great day. At Long Island's Jones Beach, he kissed his first baby...
Profit & Loss. Nixon's running mate will probably be husky, handsome Henry Cabot Lodge, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and widely known because of his televised battles with Soviet U.N. delegates.

...year-old Vienna Philharmonic is a patrician among symphony orchestras. Others may be suaver, more brilliant, more impassioned, but no other orchestra brings to 18th and 19th century classics the same air of joyous spontaneity. Last week, under Conductor Herbert von Karajan, the orchestra arrived in Manhattan on a 40-day, six-country tour. At each of the concerts, the Viennese played Mozart-Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Symphony No. 40-and to many listeners the effect was startling. Most Western orchestras play Mozart as if they remembered the 18th century only as the Age of Reason, give the music a cold...
