The road is thick with cars and trucks and bicycles and it is more sad than surprising to meet a roadblock where a girl in a little car has just had a fatal collision with a huge wine truck whose scattered demijohns line the ditches. Rosa Raisa is with us, and we find ourselves not hungry enough for dinner we had planned. So we wander thru Vicenza and at last ask a man on the street to recommend a simple place to eat. This is quite safe in Italy we do it all the time and it never fails.

This man sent us to the Alpi where the bill for three was about $3. At nine o'clock we are at the Olimpico with our rented cushions, for these are wooden steps, not chairs. Giacomo Rimini has put us in the top row which is also the most expensive, because the sight line is good and you have a wall to lean against.

The record company will put on sale next month recordings made from the NBC symphony-Tosca-. nini broadcast performance in 1946. Other records of the same performance, records which RCA Victor calls bootlegged or pirated," have been on sale in the last several years. Columbia Records, too, is concerned about this business. Last year it joined with the Metropolitan Opera company in bringing suit against a firm which advertised albums of complete "Met" productions.

They secured an injunction, but it was appealed and the appeal comes up in court the middle of October. The NBC Toscanini performance is a valuable property. It has a blue-blood cast headed by Licia Albarsese, Jan Peerce, and Robert Merrill; it even has Tos- CHILDREN'S PRICE ALL TIMES Glean FORD Gens TIERNEY "Secret of Convict Lake" "IRON MAN" GLENIS.FORD, 6ENE TIERNEV "SECRET OF CONVICT LAKE" DICK POWELL, PAULA RAYMOND "TALL TARGET" pfllfe faswawMawwHlB'sWswBwatiMBTsIM vjc- COME EARLY DOORS OPEN 12 NOON REDUCLO PRICES Dean Martin Jerry Lewis "THAT'S MY BOY" 6LENN FORD EENE TIERNEY "SECRET OF CONVICT LAKE" Director Otto Preminger (left) and Author F.
