I Cruz Sentinel Monday, March 19, 1973 Lauritz Melchior Succumbs At 83 SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) Lauritz Melchior, the durable, Danish-born tenor who became one of the top Wagenerian heroic tenors of all time, is dead at 83. Melchior died at St. John's Hospital here Sunday. He earlier had undergone surgery for a gall bladder ailment, a hospital spokesman said.

An authentic member of the so-called "Golden Age of Operatic Singers," Melchior more than held his own with the most noted -Kirsten Flagstad, Helen Traubel and Set Svanholm, to name a few. He had been inactive in music circles for several years prior to his death. Melchior's endurance was legend, and from 1926 to 1950, his giant voice rang like a clarion call over the surging orchestral scores of the murderous Richard Wagner operas. The study heldentenor sang more than 1,000 operatic performances -more than three times as many as any other Wagnerian singer--including the roles of Tannhauser, Lohengrin, Siegfried, Tristan and Parsifal. In 1950 he left New York's Metropolitan Opera, when thennew general manager Rudolph Bing failed to sign the mountainous Melchoir forwhat would have been his silver anniversary season with the Met.

Melchior- -a huge, jolly man who loved life--shrugged his immense shoulders and went off on a string of concert dates across the country that kept him singing for several more years. But from that date he lamented what he termed the lack of true heldentenors before the opera-going public. The true heroic tenor capable of standing up to Wagner's demanding epics, Melchior maintained, must be a big man physically, with a baritone voice that is boh sr 4and yet high enough to permit the addition of a tenor range on top of that. A tall order -but the qualifications matched Melchior's own. Born March 20, 1890, in Copenhagen, Lauritz Lebracht Hommell Melchior grew into a baritone voice, a 6-foot-4 frame and a 225-pound body--all of which, he insisted, only added to the muscle in his voice.

He studied in Copenhagen and Munich, Germany, and made his operatic debut--as a baritone--in 1913. To keep himself in godlike trim, Melchior ate heartily of steak dinners a and nursed a lifelong devotion to Danish beer. During World War II, afraid that beer shipments might halt, he once stockpiled hundreds of cases of Danish beer, stashing them in the window seats of his eyrielike mansion, "'The Viking." in the Santa Monica Mountains overlooking Los Angeles. A notorious practical joker, Melchior once removed a friend's priceless Stradivarius from its violin case and slipped in a cheap instrument; then, as the agonized owner on aghast, Melchior gleefully Sons Of Two Famous Men Launch Political Careers ST. PAUL, Minn.

(AP) Hubert H. Humphrey and Vince Lombardi, who grew up in the worlds of their namesake fathers. have quietly launched their own careers in the Minnesota Legislature. Both Humphrey and Lombardi are 30-year-old lawyers who were elected last November in their first tries for public office. Hubert Horatio Humphrey Ill.

oldest son of the former vice president and long-time U.S. senator from Minnesota, is a state senator from a suburban Minneapolis district. He is a Democrat, like his father. Vince Lombardi son of the late professional football coach. is a Republican who holds a House seat from a suburban St.

Paul area. So far, the other 199 members of the state legislature have not heard much from Humphrey or Lombardi. "I'm going to sit back and listen." young Humphrey says. He almost bristles at any comparison with the other Sen. Humphrey.

"I'm me." the younger Humphrey said in an interview. "Some people are going to be sadly mistaken if they thought they were voting for me because they thought I was going to be like my old Although it may have helped them get elected. both Humphrey, known as and Two Arrested In Big Basin Two young men were arrested early Saturday morning by, sheriff's deputies outside of the Big Basin State Park Gift shop. Witnesses said their car matched one seen in the area of an attempted break in earlier in the evening. John Francis Heffenan, 21, of Hayward, and Randolph Charles Harman, 23, also of Hayward, were arrested on burglary charges, and Harman also was charged with possession of marijuana.

Stone, who retired four years ago, but still retained his post as chairman and president of the Scripps-Howard Foundation and as a director of the parent Scripps-Howard organization, succumbed to a heart. attack Sunday at his nearby country home.

Stone, a native of Okemah, came to Washington to study law and joined the News to finance that education.

After spending eight years as a reporter and city editor of the paper, he became an editorial writer for all Scripps-Howard newspapers, and was named head of the Washington bureau. He traveled widely and interviewed many world leaders since the mid-1930s, including every chief of state of the Philippines since it became a Republic.

Ex-Senator Benton, Britannica Chief, Dies Lauritz Melchior jumped on the case, crunching it to flinders.

Melchior's career also included radio and television performances and two Hollywood movies-' 'Thrill of a Romance" and "This Time for Keeps." He was married three times. His first wife, Inger Nathensen, by whom he had two children, Ib and Birte, died in 1925. In 1926, in Munich, European film star Maria Hacker was making a parachute jump for a film when a strong wind blew her off-course and plopped her down at Melchior's feet. Melchior married her in 1927; she died in 1963. The next year Melchior told newsmen: "I have lived alone for a year and I have not liked it.

So I thought I should have a companion for my sunset years." At the age of 74, he married his 40-year-old former secretary, Mary Markham. months later she divorced him, changing cruelty. He is survived by his son Ib of Los Angeles. And his daughter, Brite, of Copenhagen. Funeral arrengements were incomplete.

GOP gathering. "That kind of spiked my interest enough to attend a caucus." But he added: "My interest in politics is very recent like about when they asked me to run." Lombardi was elected by about 1.200 votes a fairly large margin in a district with close to a 60 per cent Democratic majority. Asked if he thought his name was a factor, he replied: "Let's face it. that didn't hurt. At this level of running for office name identification and exthat's the name of the is fairly certain that politics will not be a lifelong career.

"I have a very avid interest in football. I wouldn't be at all surprised not in the near future perhaps to some day be in football. It's something that's not on the horizon but it's down the road a piece." He would be interested in a job as a general manager or in some other front office position. Humphrey hesitates to talk about his political future. recalling "dynasty" charges raised in his campaign.

His father once complained publicly that he wasn't being allowed to help out enough in the campaign. and young Humphrey acknowledged: "We had a hard time keeping him out." He emphasized that it was his own decision to run and he wasn't recruited by the party hierarchy as a famous name. Humphrey defeated Rep. Donald Forseth. a three-term House veteran who is a wellknown Republican in that area.

Humphrey is a member of the ruling majority in the Senate. where Democrats are in control for the first time in the state's 114-year history. Democrats control the House for the first time in 12 years.

Lombardi have shown a reluctance to use their famous names to get attention. "People aren't going to judge me on what I did on a given day, on the noise that I can make on the floor." Humphrey said. "They're going to judge me, one. by the work that I do in my office and, two, how I handle my bills and how I support the good reason of other bills." Lombardi said he does not see the legislature as a vehicle to expound his views. He said he "rarely turns down the opportunity to make a public speech about my father and the things he stood for But I don't consider it a mission.

Of his father. Lombardi says: "For a long time he considered himself a football coach.

He was the first to admit that he did't know much about anything else. But 1 think the last couple years of his life he did realize that maybe some of the things he stood for that some of the things he was articulating had an application beyond football. I think he was slowly getting to articulate those things and I think people wanted to listen." Humphrey practices law alone. Lombardi is in partnership with Rep. Julian Hook, captain of the 1961 University of Minnesota football team which played in the Rose Bowl.

When young Lombardi graduated from the William Mitchell College of law in St. Paul in 1969. the elder Lombardi "was very proud that I did it." Both Lombardi and Humphrey are married. Lombardi has four children. Humphrey three.
