AUGUST BEB'EMfS United Press Intowiaionoi MADRID (UPI) - The M4 little man gnawod his very well-done steak in a Madrid restaurant as he listened to a lune from the reevie "High Noon." "That is junk," he said. He had a right to say it he wrote the music. The man was Dimitri Tiom kin, one of the most successful J mm score composers in me ! business, and one of the most outspoken. The reason he didn't like the tune being played? "It's the worst piece in the picture," he explained. "Why they don't play other parts which are better?" Tiomkin, who was in Madrid to score the music for Samuel Bronston's latest motion picture epic, "The Fall of the Roman Empire," said he believed mo vie mood music could be artis tically as great as great music written before the days of the silver screen. "In fact," he said, "I try to do it." He added: "As a man on a different side of the desk from critics, I don't give a hoot about what they are writing about me, I never learn any thing from critics, only from musicians." He admitted, however, that he was not always proud of the way his music turned out on the screen sound track. "In movies they keep mixing together horses with scherzo. It makes a terrible sound. You write a beautiful sonata and what do you hear? Horses. I never recognize my music after the sound track is mix ed." The holder of four Academy Awards for music became more explicit. "Producers, each one is dif ferent what they do with mu sic," he said. "With Stanley Kramer, the music practically comes out the same. Never, Bronston is a son of a bee to work for, full of enthusiasm, but he doesn't destroy music. Don't tell him I say so, I work for him. "I compare Bronston with Mike Todd. Nobody in the busi ness would say his pictures were good or bad. All they would say was that Mike makes two million." Tiomkin, who studied music in St. Petersburg under Felix Blumenfield, the teacher of oth er famous musicians like Vladi mir Horowitz and Simon Ba rere, spent most of his life as Special in the NOVEMBER 3RD Weekend Issue Exclusive Eyewitness Report Attending Nurse Describes Birth : "I WAS THERE WHEN THE QUINTS WERE BORN" by Mrs. Alfred Kirchgosler Plus Other Exciting Stories ond Features for the Family ARE YOU CRUEL TO YOUR PET WITHOUT KNOWING IT?

Between 1930 and 1933, he confessed, "I did many stinky little pictures, but this is my real start in meving pictures." He has never forgotten that he is an artist. "One thing music is for is to cover up mistakes in a film," he remarked, "but it still can be good music. It is the duty oi a composer to nelp out a film in its most difficult Dart. giving the film form. "Music is a control of form. That's why horses don't go with scherzo." Despite moviemakers' mis takes, Tiomkin is convinced, the motion picture is as great a potential art form as any that has ever been devised. "But this form requires show manship," he warned. "Movies are the greatest in vention since electricity and they can be art." Rubber Band Business Is Big AKRON, Ohio (UPD-Rubber bands may be small but they are big business. Item: Last year more than 16 billion rubber bands were pro duced in the United States. That's nearly 90 rubber bands for each person in this country Item: To produce this mou tain of bands, more than million pounds of rubber wr used. The big reason behind I spiraling sales of rubber on is that they no longer are 1 ited to office use. Today they have a thousi and-one uses in homes ; schools, in industry and agri ture. For instance, "turl bands" are employed by p cessors to hold turkey lc tightly so the birds will be con pact and easy to handle on the packing line. A king-sized version of the small rubber band has been de veloped for industry as an ef fective way of holding light weight cartons together. One unique use is found in the lobster industry. So that lob sters selected for market can be handled safely (and not claw their neighbors), strong rubber bands are snapped over their pincers. Colorful bands are used by growers to hold celery, aspara gus and other vegetables 'in neat units; tiny circular bands are employed by orthodonists to hold braces in place; color coded bands are used widely by electronics manufacturers to hold parts and sub-assemblies together; freezer bands are used by housewives to fasten frozen food storage bags and containers: special bands arc used by toy makers to propel airnlanM and nther tnvs- hands .,I!o Bonaparte in , 1802.

More than 4 million travelers cross the channel each year by sea and air routes. More than 350,000 vehicles and over 500, 000 tons of freight also move over the same routes annually. The tunnel is not intended to replace these routes, but to sup plement them and help speed traffic and transportation. The tunnel would in fact pro vide one communications link that would not be affected by weather conditions.

The origins of the Shroud of Turin are not known. The piece of cloth came to light only about 600 years ago, in France. Where it was before that, no one knows for certain, but mil lions of words have been writ ten about it and men have de voted their lives to trying to prove cither that it was the winding sheet of the crucified Jesus or a gigantic hoax. A priest who devoted consid erable time to studying the cloth finally concluded it was a painting done in the Middle Ages with no intention on the part of the artist to represent it as a shroud. A French doc tor gave much of his life to making experiments on cadav ers and severed limbs before concluding that the markings on the cloth were indeed blood from the nail wounds and scourging inflicted on Jesus.
