Miss Wise, 68, died Monday in Akron General Medical Center. A native of To-peka, Miss Wise was a graduate of Cleveland Marshall Law 1 Rae E. wise Broadcasting Company (SABC), the Durban Choir and the Royal Zulu Choir in a program of Schubert and Vivaldi. The Zulus do not understand western musical notation, he said, which caused some stoiall problems. Instead they read a "strange vocally oriented notation" that was devised by missionaries in the late 19th Century.

Lane also conducted American composer Donald Erb's Trombone Concerto, a display piece filled with all sorts of unusual contemporary techniques. "At first, the people were stunned, and then they appreciated it," Lane said. "The soloist got 10 curtain calls." LANE returned to his home in Atlanta by way of South America. Before coming to Ohio, he conducted the Atlanta Symphony in a number of summer concerts. His residency in Hudson this week marks his first participation in the SME program and he said that he has been greatly impressed by the high caliber of the "If you just got into the habit of watching the conductor, this wouldn't all have to be explained," Lane scolded.

A blooper in the wind section elicited a smile from Lane, some out of tune playing distinctly did not, and soon the Schubertian phrases began to shape up to Lane's satisfaction. After brushing the strings up a bit on the Purcell, the rehearsal was over and Lane conversed and joked with some of the players. Later, he spoke about the program and how he feels about working with the young artists. "I think this kind of experience is wonderful for high school musi-cians," he said. "Oh, some of them will get home and complain bitterly about the summer, but when they look back, they will see how important it was." LANE himself has had a busy summer.

During June and early July, he traveled in South Africa for the fourth consecutive year to visit friends and conduct, a series of concerts. In Durban, he led the National Orchestra of the South African School. She was an escrow officer in Cleveland more than 30 years with Women's Federal and Union Savings and Loan companies, retiring in the late 1960s. The 28-year resident of Sagamore Hills was secretary of the township zoning commission and board of zoning appeals before being elected clerk in 1963. She served as clerk 12 years, being defeated for reelection in 1975.

It was summertime, to be sure, but the livin' wasn't quite so easy for an orchestra of high school students seated in the chapel sanctuary on Tuesday. Louis Lane was entreating his musicians to play in the right key. "There, we reset the tempo," remarked a stern Lane, working on the Menuetto of Franz Schubert's Symphony No.

THE 24 ORCHESTRAL players were dressed in jeans or shorts to ward off the heat and they were following the conductor's instructions intently, even though they appeared dog tired from the multitude of musical activity in the last five weeks. They are participants of Summer Music Experience (SME), a six-week program that has brought young musicians to the Western Reserve campus every summer since 1972, when it was begun by academy faculty member William T. Appling. The program's 44 students instrumentalists and singers have come from all over the United States, Venezuela and West Germany to improve their musical skills.

They have studied privately with Cleveland Orchestra players and toiled through a rigorous schedule of orchestral and chamber music rehearsals and individual practice sessions. THIS WEEK, Lane, music director of the Akron Symphony Orchestra and coconductor of the Atlanta Symphony, is spending time with SME students to prepare a benefit concert which they will perform under his baton Thursday night at the Cleveland Museum of Art. On that program, which begins at 8:30 p.m., Lane will lead the Summer Music Experience Orchestra and Choir in works by Purcell, Chopin, Faure and Schubert.

Hearings are sheduled to set bonds for Iverson Perry, 27, and Ronald Lee Perkins, 26, both of Youngstown.

They were arrested near Youngstown about 7:30 a.m. Tuesday and taken to Summit County Jail. Akron police said Perry has been charged with aggravated burglary and theft of drugs. Perkins, allegedly drove the getaway car, has been charged with aiding and abetting those criminal actions. Akron police are taking inventory was really steaming along," Williams said.

"It seemed like it took forever to drive back into town," he said. The chase took its toll on two police cruisers, one from Tallmadge and one from Mogadore. Both rear tires blew out on one of three Tallmadge cruisers involved in the chase and the cruiser from Mogadore reportedly had engine trouble. Akron police started the chase after a drugstore employee called to report the alleged burglary, which took place about 6:30 a.m. He described the suspects and their car.

AKRON POLICE lost sight of the New Yorker, but the accurate de of drugs stolen from the Chapel Hill store. Police said 300 to 400 pills were thrown from the suspects' car during the chase. One of the drugs has been identified as Percodan, a narcotic which has much the same effects on the central nervous system as morphine and methadone. TALLMADGE Police Chief Dave Williams, who entered the chase on 1-76 and followed the suspects to a State Highway Patrol roadblock just beyond the intersection with I-80, said the 40-mile pursuit involved speeds in excess of 120 miles per hour. "The two guys were driving a Chrysler New Yorker that thing scription provided by the employee enabled officers to spot the car on 1-76 near Akron's central interchange.

Police from Mogadore and Tallmadge then started to follow the suspects. They were joined later by State Highway Patrol troopers and officers from Austintown, near the interstate south of Youngstown. Williams said the patrol roadblock consisted of two semi-tractor trailers pulled across the eastbound lanes of 1-76. "We just ran them down into the roadblock," Williams said. "When we got there, the two men were still inside the car with their hands sticking up in the air," he said.
