Tito arrived In Moscow Tuesday by train, amid a new outpouring of anti - Yugoslav propaganda attacks from Red China. He and Khrushchev left the Soviet capital shortly there after and Yugoslav sources said only that the two had gone for a day of hunting.

Mrs. Dolz declined an of fer from Miguel Goitia An- drade of Cochabamba to meet her on the field of honor in place of MNR provincial boss Armando Bascope, who has declined her challenge. Goitia even offered to spot Mrs. Dolz four bullets, allow ing her five shots to his one. My quarrel is with Bas cope, not Goitia, Mrs. doiz replied. "Perhaps some other lady of my group might be willing to accept Goitia's challenge." Mrs. Dolz, an attorney and an active crusader tor me rights of unmarried mothers and illegitimate children, challenged Bascope because he expelled her from the MNR for "lack of discipline. Add To Din of the tax witnesses bad squeaky voices, presumably as a result of squealing with outrage. Additionally, Ihe audience was composed of taxpayers. and the noise of their blond boiling added to the din. The petitioners at this hearing were uptet over the new rules for deducting the cost of entertainment as a business expense. They contended that under these regulations dining nut on an expense account would require so much bookkeep ing that no meal wnuid be complete without a certified public accountant. A requirement that busi ness be discussed during a business meal came under particularly heavy criticism. One witness said a restau rant in Chicago was offering tables with built-in tape re corders so that its customers could prove thev said what they said they said Revenue officials indicated the regulations might be mod ified to some extent.

SVt THE RIGHT TO UM,T Ihe repertoire in his third year at Zurich, including the baritone s dream role ol Mo zart's "Don Giovanni," Viennese music critics have tabbed the Michigan baritone "one of the most hopeful lights for Vienna's opera fu ture." Carl Karapetian. a school mate of Kerns at the univer sity of Michigan school of music, is a private student of the legendary Herbert Von Karajan, one of a select few j and the only American. "Actually," he said, "dis- clple is more descriptive." K a r a p etian characterizes Karajan as "one of the most gentle men I've ever known. Far from being the arrogant soul he is often pictured as being, he is filled with camaraderie. F u rthermore, Karajan speaks a perfect Americanese. If I didn't know better I'd say he was from Chicago." - Karapetian, a former con ductor of Detroit-Windsor's International Symphony, broke into the European musical world with a big splash at this year's Spolelto (Italy) "Festival of Two Worlds." He was responsible for the production and direc tion of Rossini's opera "II Conte Ory." This work resulted in en LARGEST STOCK IN SOUTHERN OREGON FLOYD HIBBARD'S HDWR. 310 E.
