Quadruplets Born To New York School Teacher NEW YORK (UPI) - New York's contribution to the pop ulation explosion, a set of quadruplets born to a grade school teacher and her attorney husband, were reported in "sat isfactory" condition today. The petite, 90-pound mother of the three girls and one boy, 27 year old Mrs. Rhoda Breck er was "doing fine" following the multiple delivery by Cae sarean section. A spokesman at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center said the quad's proud father, Martin Brecker had not yet de cided on names for the couple's first-born, now known as 1, 2, 3 and 4. The quads, weighing a total of 13- nnunds were born Wednesday night between 6:32! and 6:35 p.m. (EDT). They were placed in incubators but only as a precautionary meas ure, according to a hospital spokesman. They are expected to be kept in incubators (or a few days at least. The infants arrived on their due date but their parents who had been advised to expect "more than one" were shocked when the number hit four. But the father, whose family grew from two to six in a mat ter of four minutes, rose to the occasion. "It's magnificent. It's a won derful blessing," he said. He added that he and his wife looked forward to having more children to keep the quads com pany. The first born, a girl, weighed a flat four pounds. The boy, second born, was t w o pounds, 15 ounces and the two other girls weighed three pounds, 11 ounces and two pounds, 12 ounces. Odds against having quads range from once in 680,000 births to once in a million.

"What Have Yon Got To Love? fc A ddrrn o Record Album Benefits UNICEF NEW YORK (UPI) A new long-playing record album with a galaxy of American talent went on the market this week to benefit the U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF) and the U. S. Committee for the United Na tions. The unusual disc, entitled "Three Billion Millionaires" was conceived as the first mu sical comedy ever created ex pressly for the record medium. Composer Robert Allen trav eled 37,000 miles to record the musical portions of the record. The album is a fantasy of the seating of a baby at the United Nations as a representative of the future generation. Among those in the cast are U. N. del egate Adlai E. Stevenson, Judy Garland, Danny Kaye, Sammy Davis, Jr., Carol Burnett, Bing Crosby, Wally Cox, Jack Ben ny, Terry-Thomas, George Ma haris, and Nancy Baker. Arnold Michaelis, who pro duced the prizewinning "Adlai Stevenson Reports" TV show, is producer and narrator of the al bum and Peter Farrow and Di ane Lamport wrote the book and lyrics. All the artists and writers contributed their serv ices and royalties. "I've been a carpenter for nine years." said Goodwin dur ing dinner in the Woodland H'lls home where he lives with his wife and two children. Goodwin, who now has his owr. house remodelling business, composes music at home when I his day's work is done. I For years he pounded on Hoi-1 lywood doors which are famil- j make the grade here. Almost always, he was turned away. No newcomers were needed, lie was told. Doug's musical future is look ing better these days. He has sold one song lo "The Flint stones" television show and col laborated on tunes for "Whistle Your Way Back Home." a "Yo gi Bear" animated film. In the movie, Doug collabor ated with Ray Gilbert, an es tablished filmland songwriter. Joe Barbera. of Hanna Barbera productions which filmed the television show and movie, considers Goodwin a fortunate discovery for his firm "We're going to use him more often." said Barbera. "He plays beautifully and can put over a song. He and Ray Gilbert did five songs together." Still a Carpenter The initial break for Holly wood talent doesn't always in sure a bright and profitable future. Goodwin is aware of that fact. He still practices the carpenter's trade while waiting for another assignment. "I don't want to be In the construction business all my life," Doug says. "I want to write music. I hope that after the picture comes out somebody will be interested in Doug Good win the composer." During a visit to the Goodwin home we heard some of Doug's music. It's refreshing to hear new tunes by a composer who hasn't bogged down in the mo rass of rock 'n roll. One of his tunes is a love song called "On the Ninth of December I Met You." "This isn't my song," he says, as he describes the melo dy in terms of a love struck youngster. "Visualize a man sitting some place, and he says 'of the days I remember, the ninth of December.' It's a thought, a feeling for romance. This man just met a girl." And Hollywood has finally gotten around to meeting Doug Goodwin.
