TURNTABLE TALK
BY JAMES G. DEANE

Eyebrows are sometimes
raised when a conductor
chooses to appropriate a score
from the non-orchestral lit
erature.
Toscanini, a purist in most
matters, has allowed himself
a few liberties in this one.
Collectors will recall the
Beethoven quartet movements
he once recorded with the
NBC Symphony strings. and
more recently a recording of
the Beethoven septet in SIM
liar form. Now Victor has is
sued a Toscanini performance
of the Mendelssohn octet.
In this case the orchestral
rendition is not really too
much of a departure. Men
delssohn himself intended the
octet to be orchestral in style,
and the familiar Midsummer
Nights Dreamlike scherzo is
heard from orchestras more
often than from octets. (Both
the octet and septet are avail
able in recent first-class re-
cordingS by members of the
Vienna Philharmonic on Lon
don. in their original form.)
The primary attraction of
the new Toscanini disc, how
ever. is the oversize Schubert
fifth symphony. a performance
as crisp and capering as any
he has given us, and the first
modern one, from any top
rank conductor. The recorded
sound is slightly dry. but ex-
tremely clean and exposes a
gratifying amount of detail.
BY coincidence, no doubt, a
version Of the Schubert by
Karl Boehm and the Vienna
Philharmonic has arrived al
most simultaneously on Lon
don with the Diminished" on
the overside). 1t is a typically
Viennese product, spacious in
sound and leisurely in pacing,
quite different Except in the
finale. where the tempo is al
most the same) from the Tos-
canini. Who is right? Doubt
less there is matter of taste
involved. There are times,
though, when one wonders
whether Boehm is waving his
baton at all.
Evening star., 1955-06-12
OLD AND NEW

The Dvorak symphonic vari-
atoms in which Sir Thomas
Beecham led the National
Symphony a year ago have
been committed to a record by
Sir Thomas and his Royal
Philharmonic. At his hands
they make rather attractive
listening. Balakireff's exotic
tone poem "Tamar," on the
opposite side of this Columbia
issue. is given it's suavest treat
rnent on records.
Several other Dvorak items
are at hand. Rudolf Firkusny,
George Sell and the Cleveland
Orchestra have done the 6
minor piano concerto for Co
lumbia in lively fashion. This
is the version revised by Prof.
Vilem Kurz. The A fiat major
string quartet and the familiar
piano quartet are performed
for Westminster by the Barylli
ensemble. The quintet, with
Edith Farnadi at the keyboard,
is rather thin-sounding. The
quartet comes through better.
The Philharmonic Orchestra,
under Wolfgang Sawallisch,
offers the Scherzo Capriccioso
and the fourth symphony on
an Angel release. The scherZo,
O. good-sized piece in the vein
of the Slsvonic dances, is a
real find for admirers of that
scintillating repertoire.
Finally. inevitably, another
'.New World" symphony, this
time by Alceo Galliera and the
Philharmonic on Angel. It's

worrying about any

 Those in favor of protecting the American watch industry have argued that the complicated and secret mechanisms of mod ern armament in time of national emergency will call upon every available matchmaking skill this country possesses.
 During World War II, when Switzerland was surrounded by the enemy this nation was cut off from its source of timing devices essential to national de- fense. Experts in the field re- member that at that time even jeweled bearings had to be snug gled out of Switzerland in diplo- matic pouches and by other dra- matic methods.

Ever pause to think you may be wearing part of guided mis- sile on your wrist?
 Millions of Americans wear wrist watches, but few know that manufacture of wrist watches is a vital part of national defense. Almost identical parts that fit a popular watch go into making sensitive military equipment - fuses, detonators, firing pins, bombers, warships, to name a few. That is the substance of a recent public statement by Sec retary of Defense Charles E. Wilson. In a letter to nine U. s. Senators MT. Wilson said: "In the course of study it became ap- parent that the entire watch and clock industry is essential to the mobilization base"
 A controversy has ragged for more than year concerning the protection of Americas small, but vital, matchmaking industry. Imported watches have captured most of the American market, 863o to be exact, reducing the ranks of highly skilled precision

Doctor Fined for
 Late Birth Filings

JUNEAU-Dr. William Char teris of Sitka was fined $3O in Commissioners Court there last week when he pleaded guilty to six counts of failure to file birth certificates within ten days fol- lowing birth, as required by law.
 According to the court, Dr. Charteris was from 26 to 45 days overdue in filing six certificates involved in the action.
 A jail sentence of five days on each of the six counts was sus- pended and the doctor was placed on probation for five years.
