St. Petersburg Timet, Wednesday, March 6, 1974 1M Sol Hurok, Impresario For The World's Talent Timos Wirt Sarvlcai Sol Hurok, 85, famed Impresario who brought the best of Soviet musical and acting talent to American audiences for decades, died Tuesday in New York after being stricken with a heart attack. Mr. Hurok was pronounced dead at 3:40 p.m. after being taken to Beekman-Downtown Hospital.

Mr. Hurok, who never let his age stand In the way of a frenetic work schedule, earlier had lunched with another old friend, Andres Segovia, the Spanish classical guitarist. He left to meet David Rockefeller, president of the Chase Manhattan Bank at his 17th floor office at 1 Chase Manhat MR. HUROK DEFENDED the U.S.-Soviet cultural exchanges as "a silk thread that brings people and people together. So long as you dance and sing together, there is no bloodshed." Last May, Mr.

Hurok was honored at a gala in the Metropolitan Opera House, which raised between $175,000 and $200,000. The money went to the Performing Arts Research Center of the New York Public Library at Lincoln Center. The 1,500 seats, costing $100 apiece, were sold out weeks in advance in honor of the showman. The impresario, when asked which artist had most excited him, replied with a smile: tan Plaza. But he was driven instead to 1 New York Plaza, several blocks away in the financial district, where Chase Manhattan also maintains offices.

Hurok went to the 17th floor, where he collapsed. OTHER PERFORMERS presented by Mr. Hurok during his career read like a roster of the world's leading musicians, dancers and singers in the 20th Century: Anna Pavlova, Isadora Duncan, Marian Anderson, Arthur Rubinstein, Roberta Peters, Isaac Stern, Jan Peerce, Van Cliburn, Margot Fonteyn, and many, many others. His last big promotion was the return U.S. tour of soprano Maria Callas, who after and worker's organizations.

He broke into big-time promotion in 1913 when he rented the New York Hippodrome, since torn down, for a series of Sunday afternoon concerts called "Music for the Masses," at which well-known performers appeared. By the 1920's, he was managing famous artists, including Anna Pavlova, considered the greatest prima ballerina of "her time, and dancer Isadora Duncan. In the following decade, he brought in more exotic imports, such as an Indian dancing troupe and an Italian puppet theatre. As a measure of his fame, he often took marquee billing over artists, with the legend Hurok Presents." day, Mr. Hurok turned up at a recital of pianist Byron Janis.

He appeared in the best of health as he greeted hundreds of music lovers. Mr. Hurok probably was best known for his promotion of cultural exchanges between the United States and the Soviet Union, including the Bol-shoi Ballet. It was this work that dragged Mr. Hurok out of the cultural and into the political arena, culminating in the bombing of his Sixth Avenue offices in January 1972, which left a woman receptionist dead and 13 others injured, including Mr.

Hurok himself. Several members of the Jewish Defense League later were convicted for the bombing. "THAT IS LIKE asking a parent which child he likes best and he then rattled off a dozen names including Chaliapin, Pavlova and Rubinstein. "These people are history, legends. It's been such a pleasure.

If I wouldn't have pleasure doing this I wouldn't be doing this," he said. Mr. Hurok, a short, rotund, owlish-looking man, was born in the small town of Pogar in Czarist Russia. At the age of 15, he set out for the nearby city of Kharkov to further his education, but instead was induced by a friend to book passage to America. He arrived in New York in May 1906, with three rubles ($1.50) in his pocket.

Settling first in Philadelphia, Mr. Hurok spent Saturday nights bundling papers for the old Philadelphia Press. A reporter, Lincoln Martin, who later became a music critic, invited him and other boys home after work to listen to music. "IT WAS THE first time I'd ever heard Wagner," recalled Mr. Hurok in a 1961 interview.

"He'd play and explain and make us breakfast. I really began to appreciate Wagner. It was the beginning really of my period of listening to music." Mr. Hurok later moved to New York, began attending the opera and arranged musical programs for labor clubs SOL HUROK 'a silk cancelling her opening night in New York because of illness, was scheduled to appear Tuesday night. Only last Sun From l-B pinellas suncoast florida Drugs nation world Frank Wilcox, Played Roles In 166 Movies Frank Wilcox, 66, a character actor who appeared in 166 movies and played such varied television roles as Mr.

Brewster in the "Beverly Hillbillies" and Elliott Ness' boss in "The Untouchables," died Sunday in Los Angeles. Mr. Wilcox, who started lading on the stage of the old Pasadena Playhouse, worked for years with Warner Brothers, and was a co-owner of a suburban restaurant. He had served as honorary mayor of Granada Hills for a decade. The actor, survived by his widow, Joy, and three daughters, also was on the Screen Actors Guild board of directors for three years.

Zora Truesdale, Last Of Famous Quartet Zora Truesdale, 99, the last of the "Truesdale Quartet" two twin sisters and their husbands, twin brothers died Saturday in Paso Robles, Calif. Mrs. Truesdale and her twin, Nora, married Hillis and Willis Truesdale, and the four of them ranched near here for three quarters of a century. The couples, who were seemingly identical were said to enjoy confounding visitors with their uncanny resemblences.

Adolph Gottlieb, Major Figure In Modern Art Adolph Gottlieb, 70, one of the founders of the New York School of Abstract Expressionism and a major figure in American art for more than 30 years, died Monday in New York. Mr. Gottlieb, whose paintings are included in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, The Whitney Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Brooklyn Museum, had suffered a stroke in April 1971 but had continued to paint and have exhibitions in this country and in Europe. Carl Burckhardt, Swiss Diplomat Carl J. Burckhardt, 82, Swiss diplomat, historian and author, died Sunday in Geneva.

Mr. Burckhardt had the nightmarish assignment of the League of Nations high commissioner for the free city of Danzig, now Gdansk, Poland, during the Nazi takeover of the city that culminated with the German attack on Poland in September 1939, starting World War II. Joseph Thomson, Was New York VFW Chief Joseph Carl Thomson, 76, former New York State Department Commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and a trial attorney in New York City for more than 40 years, died Friday in New York. He was a former judge advocate general of the national VFW and was the first secretary of the VFW National Home for Widows and Orphans at Eaton Rapids, Mich. FRANK WILCOX in 1958 photo.

Recalling American military officers who cooperated with the enemy in North Korea, Harris said, "It is no surprise that a powerless adolescent trapped within and dependent upon The Seed's system for his survival could also be brainwashed by applying the same principles. "The military officers were reduced to a basic survival need level and so is the adolescent when The Seed's system and his peers disconfirm him at every 'wrong' turn and unless he acquiesces can unanimously and continually reject, pressure and ostracize him into slave obedience." THE ULTIMATE effect, Harris believes, is to "obliterate his self-directing and self-evaluating potential." "The adolescent becomes automatic in reflecting the values and attitudes that were unmercifully drummed into him," Harris said. "His own true feelings and perceptions are distorted. He will be inclined less toward individuality and feel more a need to conform. He will be inclined to be more submissive than self-starting and motivated.

"Like The Seed, he tends to become secretive and closed except with fellow Seed members. His approaches and reactions tend to be more rigid and reflective rather than flexible and responsive." HARRIS SEES another danger in the "chastisement and shame" that Seedlings are subjected to when they show "a normal adolescent interest in the opposite sex." "He will probably at the very least experience conflicting feelings in his sexual relations," Harris said. However, he said, the results depend on the earlier development of the adolescent, the kind of home he came from and the length of time he was in The Seed. SEED DIRECTOR Barker, who recently has refused to discuss his program with Times reporters, has labeled professionals who criticize his program "idiots." "They can't do a damn thing with kids on drugs," he said. "The problem is that our mere existence threatens them." He said people who enter the program, regardless of the extent or nature of their drug use, "have three alternatives to going straight prison, insanity or death." AFTER GRADUATION', he describes them as loving, decent, kind human beings who love themselves, God and their country." "And it lasts; it lasts forever," he told a United Press International reporter.

Seed staffers defend the group attacks as necessary to force drug abusers to be honest. They do not consider themselves and other graduates to be "rigid." If all Seedlings tell pretty much the same story and react in the same ways, staffer Susie Connors explained, it is because their stories are the same. They did use drugs for the same reasons, she said. Male seedlings have short hair and look "straight" because they want to have a "straight image," she said. Seedlings who have not graduated from the program are not permitted "boy-girl relationships" because they are not ready for it, Seedlings say.

NEXT: St. Petersburg's methadone program. Harvey Stone, Comedian Harvey Stone, 58, a comedian noted for his World War II Army routine, died Monday in Barbados after finishing a performance on the Cunard Adventurer, a spokesman for the family said. Mr. Stone was drafted in 1943 and starred in Army shows in Michigan and was sent to the port of embarkation in Brooklyn, where he entertained departing troops with his tales of But Dr.

Peter Bourne, deputy director of the President's Special Action Office on Drug Abuse, notes that the techniques can be used to "induce social conformity through intimidation." Therapeutic communities do have the power to make members accept common beliefs, take on a common style of dress and appearance, use a common vocabulary, and adopt similar patterns of behavior, at least tern' porarily. Ellen Shoemaker, director of Renewal House in Atlanta, is quick to admit that her program could be used to produce conforming personalities. And the personalities would conform to almost whatever mold the program leadership chose. THE ANsrt'ER, she said, is in the quality of the staff. She described her staff as people of well-developed morals and intelligence who "are constantly exposed to the idea that residents are not playthings or slaves." Art Barker, director of the largest program of therapeutic communities in Florida, the Seed argues that graduates of his program choose a "straight" way of life because they love themselves and others, not because they are "brainwashed." The federal government has concerned itself with another aspect of the therapeutic communities, the tendency of successful graduates to stay in the programs as staff members.

SYNAXON gave up the effort to equip members to function in society and became a permanent, sheltered society of its own. Members sign on for life and never go back to the temptations, frustrations and ennui of the outside world. Most other therapeutic communities are making great efforts to prepare their members for independent lives. In the first stages of a therapeutic community, members depend on the group for physical necessities, friendship, emotional support, stimulus and decisions about what to do from one minute to the next. In later stages most therapeutic communities try to wean members from that dependence.

They are required to prepare themselves to re-enter the outside community. DESPITE those efforts, most former addicts who have remained abstinent from drugs are still in treatment programs, usually as staff, according to reports made for the National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse. At Atlanta's Renewal House, for example, 26 of the 40 members who have completed the program and are "doing well" are on the staff. Some are very recent graduates. The Seed has not disclosed the percentage of its "successful" graduates who still are connected to the program.

If the therapeutic community does simply substitute dependence on the program for dependence on the drug, advocates say it is a more desirable dependence. Other kinds of drug treatment do not show high rates of total cure either. BECAUSE THE techniques of the therapeutic community invade the mind in a way that is difficult to resist, it has become more controversial than any other type of treatment except methadone maintenance. Part of the controversy centers on the possibility of lasting psychological damage, particularly to the adolescent. Dr.

Jeff Elenewski, a Miami clinical psychologist, told the Dade County Health Planning Council that he has treated graduates of The Seed who suffered "severe psychological damage" in the program. He said he has seen suicide attempts and feelings of "overwhelming worthlessness, hopelessness and despair." BILL HARRIS, director of the Community Counseling Center in Largo, said some of the Seed graduates he has treated are suffering from "despair, confusion and rigid reactions." 52, of 5374 49th Ave. St. Petersburg, owner of Allendale Styling Salon, Tuesday (March 5, 1974).
