RECORD REVIEW
Verdi's OteIIo Heard
In Two New Versions
BY HERMAN SCHADEN
Star Record Critic

Giuseppe Verdi's Otello
currently is playing an oper-
attic doubleheader in the re-
cord marts.
Collectors in quest Of a
new stereo or mono version
Of the epic tragedy have a
choice between productions
by London and RCA Victor.
London's lineup directed by
Herbert Won Karajan has the
well-known names of Mario
del Monaco as Otello and
Renata Tebaldi as Desde-
mona, with Aldo Protti as
Iago. The choral work is by
the Vienna State Opera and
the orchestra is the Vienna
Philharmonic, one of Won
Karajan's many interests.
TulliO Serafin Conducts
RCA Victori's version is
done in its Soria Series, fin
cry, which means some dandy
frills in packaging and beau
tifully illustrated notes and
libretto. Its leading singers
are Jon Vickers (Otello) Leo
ME Rysanek DeSdemona)
and Tito Cobb CIago). The
venerable and redoubtable
Tullio Serafin is at the helm
of the Rome Opera Orchestra
and Chorus.
, Either set will bring some
moments Of pleasure if not
the so-called definitive per-
formance. Each set has its
merits and debts. In Del
Monaco and Tebaldi, London
has two singers who know
their parts well, and inject
into them the fire and pas
sion they must have. This
particularly is true of Del
Monaco, whose dark por-
trayal offsets occasional vocal
harshness.
A Fresh Tenor Voice
On the other hand, Victor
presents the relatively new
name Of Vickers in the title
role. His is a voice of lyric
splendor, but his dramatic
effort is short Of the mark.
So is Miss Rysanek's voice
pretty to hear, lighter than
Telbaldi's, but again she is
not SO involved in the plot.
The Victor set is fortunate
in having as its Iago Tito
Cobb, a remarkably fine art
ist and sonorous baritone. His
opposite for London, Profit,
is not so strong.
Won Karajan is a solid con-
ductor, getting big dramatic
effects from the principals,
chorus and orchestra. The
London version has a darker
cast than that of the Victor
set. Serafin perhaps evokes
a more Italian flavor, and
builds nicely to climaxes, but
at times moves too slowly.
His quieter scenes, like the
love duet and Desdemona's
bedroom scene, elicit intense
beauty.

required is an idea. This is
easy for Mr.. Elmekki, who al
ways has more ideas than he
can use. For him the prob
lem is selection.
The space on a stamp is
small. The subject must be
simple and clear, something
that can be grasped at a
glance. So usually the artist
must resort to symbolism.
The representation should
be realistic, Mr.. Elmekki be-
lieves. but should always
leave something to the imagi-
nation, so that each person
who sees it can complete it
from his own experience.
For an Africa Day stamp
the symbol is an obvious one
an outline map Of Africa.
But if you look closely at
Mr.. Elmekki's first prize de-
sign for this years stamps.
the map is really two clasped
hands, one white, one black.
Here is the friendly relation
ship of Arab and Negro Afri-
ca. If you look closer still,
the hands are claSped not in
the conventional handShake
but in a way which suggests
Indian wrestling. Is Mr.. FL
mekki suggesting friendly
competition rather than SIM
ply friendship?
Lettering is always a prob
lem for the stamp designer,
and Mr.. Elmekki has it in
double measure. since all
wording must appear in both
Arabic and French. Often he
can work an inscription in
as a design feature. A long
inscription on a Scout stamp
becomes a flagpole. On a
Stamp Day issue the Arabic
designation suggests the
domes and minarets Of an
Arab town.
The humor comes mostly
from the bizarre or unexpect-
ed-for National Day an at
tractive girl in Tunisian garb
riding a crescent moon; for
Stamp Day a mailman on a
comic camel using a tele-
phone to nowhere; for the
Scout jamboree a hand in
the three-finger Scout sign
but with the fingers ending
in miniature heads and the
cuff, on closer inspection, a
tent.
Mr.. Elmekki's success has
encouraged other artists tt
try their own versions Of tht
lighthearted approach, anC
most recent Tunisian stamps
show it's influence.
Not quite all. however. Tht
most recent issue with a por'
trait of President Habit

mekkD shows him in a yer!

Treasure Finder Wins

road NV. found the jug in
April, 1860, while exploring

Police told Mr.. Kanegis he
could keep the coins if they
were not claimed within six
months. But two parties came
forward to enter claims-Inter-
state Demolition Corp, which
was razing the property, and
the heirs of the former owner.
The company argued it's pos
session of the land entitled it
to the coins found there.
Mr.. Kanegis, through his at
torney, Miss Stasia Hyman,
countered with an ancient
Roman doctrine called treas
ure trove," under which a
finder is entitled to possession
against everyone except the
true owner.
Judge Malloy, ruling for Mr..
Kanegis. held that the coins
were a treasure trove. If Mr..
Kanegis had not found them.
the Judge said, the coins would
in all probability have been

WoIIops Island Missile Aqe

1t took spadework for the

that Wallops Island. Va, ap-

Charles E. Schafer of Havre

Leon Kanegis, who found g
jug full of silver coins in the
Southwest Washington redevel-
opment area, today won the
first round in a legal battle
of finders-keepers.
Municipal Court Judge John
H. Malloy ruled that Mr.. Kane
gis has a better right to the
treasure than the demolition
company which was clearing
the site.
Still to be decided is a second
suit in which heirs of the for
mer owner of the property
contend that they, rather than
Mr.. Kanegis, should get the
coins.
Meanwhile the earthen pot
and it's 934 silver coins remain
in the courts custody. The coins
date back to the 1870s.
The value is unknown. al
though the face value of the
coins totals $407.50. An expert
said some might bring 81 each.

Serious Crime Rises
$3.50 Over June, 1860

The number of serious
crimes in the District during
the past fiscal year rose nearly
| 9 per cent over the total fol
the previous IL months, police
reported today.
During the fiscal period end
ing July l, 22,054 Part 1 (more
serious) offenses were reported
in Washington. This was ar
increase of 1,788, or 8.8 pei
cent, over the figure for the
previous fiscal year.
Today's police report to the
Commissioners listed the crime
increases in criminal homicide
robbery, housebreaking, grand
larceny and petty larceny.
There were decreases in two
categories, rape and aggravated
assault.
.
There has been an increase
in these Part 1 offenses here
with one exception, each month
over the comparable figure the
previous year since February
1859. The exception was July
1860, when the total dropped by
less than per cent under the
figure for July. 1859.
The new figures reported
today we're for last month
compared to June, 1860. The
total last month was 1902, an
increase of 1875 Part I offenses
or 7 per cent over the figure
for June. 1860.
The report noted that there
was an increase in the CAS-
sification of robbery, house.

rosIIIH Hunts
HurricaneDatd
Satellite Equipped
With TV Orbited

CAPE CANAvERAL, Fla,
July IL (AP).-A hurricane
hunting weather satellite was
fired into orbit today to gather
information on the origin, de-
velopment and movement Of the
monster tropical storms.
A 92-foot Thor Delta rocket
carrying a 285-pound TiroS III
satellite roared aloft from Cape
Canaveral at 6:25 am. (EDT) j..
1t went into a nearly perfect
circular orbit with its most
distant point from earth-the
apogee - $50 miles out, its
closest - perigee - 425 miles
away. 1t is circling the earth
once every 100 minutes.
In Washington, a spokesman
for the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration re-
ported that Tiros III transmit
ted 35 pictures of the earth's
cloud cover on its first pass
around the globe. The pictures
taken with wide-angle tele-
vision cameras, were triggered
by signals from the Space
Agency's Wallops Island sta
tion.
The pictures showed cloud
formation over Newfoundland,
the Gulf of st. Lawrence and
the st. Lawrence Valley region.
Each photo showed an area of
about 800 square miles.
DR.. F. w. Reichelderfer, chief
of the Weather Bureau, said it
is hoped that information re-
ceived from the satellite can
be sent on to weather stations
throughout the Nation within
three or four hours after re-
ceipt.
In orbiting the globe, Tiros
III is scheduled to spend al
ternate periods of four weeks
each over the Northern and
Southern HemisphereS.
DR.. Reichelderfer said the
satellite will give weather fore
casters "a chance to see from
a choice seat in outer space
what is going on on a large
scale over a large part of the
globe"
Meteorologists hope the pic
lures will provide valuable in
formation on what causes hur-
ricanes and how they develop.
Shaped like a huge drum
with two television cameras
protruding from its base, Tiros
III is an improved version of
two extremely successful Tiros
satellites orbited last year. The
earlier space packages trans
mitted thousands of useful
cloud-cover photographs to
earth and proved the feasibility
of using such vehicles for fore
casting.
The launching today was
planned TO coincide with the
season in which hurricanes
normally form in the Atlantic
and Caribbean.
Because its intended course
varies, Tiros III is intended to
spy on the hurricane breeding
grounds for only about six
weeks of its anticipated three
Imonth life.

Douglas declared. But the

He attacked the position of
Southern Senators and their
allies of the Mountain States

well and effectively organized.
1t is impossible, he said, to
break q filibuster and it is like
wise impossible to get the nee

He urged the delegates to press
