"Correct," nodded the

"Because," came the

screams of anguished taxpay

count regulations.
The aircraft noise abate
ment hearing featured a 10

Mrs. Dolz declined an of

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

challenged Bascope because
he expelled her from the
MNR for "lack of discipline.

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.

the regulations might be mod

ly hope so. I'm against any
thing that might deter anyone

artistic "Three Musketeers

Miss Lear, who with her
baritone husband, Thomas
Stewart, is one of the Berlin
opera mainstays, has conquer
ed Austria by storm.

Miss Lear and Bob Kerns
made their big Vienna debut

and Kerns as Guguielmo.
"This," says Kerns, "makes
us blood relations."
Kernst came directly to
European opera stages after
four years as featured soloist

under contract in Zurich's

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."
