thoughtful insights into the
■
career and personal life of
the "Maestro" and the work-
ings of the orchestra that he
referred to as the "classiest
jukebox in the world."
Dickson, principal vio-
linist of the Boston Sym-
phony and associate con-
ductor of the Boston Pops,
knew Fiedler for nearly 50
years. This anecdotal ac-
count moves from Fiedler's

early days as a violinist
with the Boston Symphony,
and finally, to his heyday as
conductor of the Pops and as
a television and recording
personality.
Among the book's high-
lights is Dickson's recount-
ing of the triumphant
Bicentennial Concert given
by the Pops in 1976.

Note Offered

Friday, May 8, 1981 5
Shin Shalom (Shalom
Joseph Shapira), author of
the poem "A New Song"
which appears on Page 1,
was born in Poland in 1904
to a rabbinical family which
settled in Jerusalem in
1922. He now lives in Haifa.
His Hebrew works have
won many literary awards
and were published in eight
volumes (1966-1968). A
poet's private struggle
against "the candle going
- out" corresponds in his
poetry to the nation's strug-
gle for independence.
Shalom's work gives strong
expression to the revival of
Israel.
