...South Texas Association's field trials began 15 years ago. First day of last week's meet was devoted to the Bench Show, in which dogs are judged solely on build and looks. In this event a 13-month-old black, white & tan Walker "gyp" (Texan for bitch) named Bess, owned by Paul Johnson of Liberty Hill, took the grand championship. Inexperienced, she made no showing in the field trials of the next three days, in which judges picked a 3-year-old gyp named Keno, owned by Robert Spurgeon Guyness of Poteet, as best...
...honors went to Pointer Ufton Congressman, obedient and stylish, but tired at the finish after a hard run over rain-drenched ground.

Bitch, to be sure, was a word Spring Davis (Lionel Barrymore) would not allow used for his lady-dog. He believed in general that a dog was as good a friend as a man, except that it had none...
...from a generation of British domestic comedies, beautifully packaged in a tip-top production by the Theatre Guild. What it lacks in novelty, it more than makes up in size (nine scenes) and wholesomeness. From the innocent affair between the Hilton's dog and the neighbor's bitch to the momentary missteps of Dorothy and Roger Hilton themselves, Call It a Day is never in any real danger of losing its virtue...
