...important as using them properly. Rather than trying to compete with the commercial networks, General Manager Day concentrates on "the events that don't always make headlines or are reported with a two-minute film clip sandwiched into a news show." This programming strategy is sufficient proof that ingenuity and talent can make a swinging chick out of that little old lady, Public...
Confusion at Customs. To shopkeepers and tourists, the new morality means a mess at customs. Under the new rules, which require customs-slip proof that the purchase has been "exported," a buyer can get his discount fairly simply if he has his purchase shipped directly home.

In compositions by Heitor Villa-Lobos, Frank Martin, Hans Werner Henze and Reginald Brindle, he weaves nimbly through some fierce technical obstacles, catching the harshness of the contemporary idiom while losing none of the guitar's characteristic aplomb and lucidity. Best of all is his performance of Nocturnal, a 19-minute mood piece written especially for him in 1963 by Benjamin Britten. Spiraling through a set of variations that end rather...
