By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, January 23.—The climax of the bribery-conspiracy trial of former District Attorney Asa Keyes and two other defendants, was looked for * e today after it had been an- own defense. Defense attorneys an- nounced last night that this move would be made unless last-minuta develop- ment alter their plans. The State rested its case yesterday. ‘With the dismissal of charges against three of the six original defendants, Charles Reimer, Dave Getzoff and Jack Rosenberg, there remained only Keyes, Gen Getzoff, alleged “fixer,” and Ed Rosenberg, formerly a defendant in the Julian Petroleum Corporation fraud ¢, to face the verdict of the jury. The dismissals were based on a de- fense contention that there had been ill\&umcicnt evidence to convict the three. Radio service is to e supplied MRS.

The dramatic po- tency of the second movement was suc- ceeded by the lyric charm of the more aloof slow movement, with its fasci- nating violoncello solo and the piano rippling into silence against the tapes- tried shadows of the string choirs. The finale was one of those rare, thorough- ly satisfying events that come fleeting- y in a lifetime. In the earlier part of the program Mr. Gabrilowitsch conducted three varied yet equally programmatic works. The first, the overture, “Russian Eas- ter,” written by Rimsky-Korsakoff, with its blending of the Asiatic and Slavic themes, its contrast of religlous and pagan music and its consistent bril- liancy, seemed a bit disjointed at first but gained in effectiveness as it pro- gressed. Josef Hofmann's symphonic narra- tive, “The Haunted Castle,” was a vivid musical detective story, in which ghosts of several varieties were distinctly audi- ble and dissonant wails came from the horns, while shivery mutterings crept two harps contributed considerably toward the effectiveness of this work, u[h]ich is fascinating and musicianly in style. The third purely orchestral work, Georges Enesco’s “Rumanian Rhap- sody, No. 1" is laden with tinkling dance rhythms and folk melodies. It is a delightful, colorful number and works wonders for your.
