Experimental suggestions Phenomenon for the iscovery of charm "irect" lepton prouction large number of strange particles narrow peaks in mass spectra of harons apparent strangeness violation short tracks, inicative of particles with lifetimes 10 13 s narrow peaks in e + e or µ + µ mass spectra approach of the (e + e harons)/(e + e µ + µ ) ratio to 3 1/3
