...Shuksan outing last week went three competent climbers: H. Karl Boyer, 28, of Seattle, who fought in the Spanish Civil War; Anne Cedarquist, 22, a chemist who once climbed California's hazardous Lassen Peak; Faye Plank, 37, a Bremerton librarian. Miss Cedarquist had climbed Rainier twice this year, Boyer once. They expected to be up to Shuksan's peak and safely down by nightfall...
Roped together, Boyer and Miss Cedarquist got to within 1,000 ft. of the peak. Miss Plank, climbing alone, was several hundred feet below them, when Anne Cedarquist suddenly slipped, plunged past Boyer and over a cliff. He seized the rope, burned his hands as he belayed it around an outcropping rock and stopped the fall. Boyer inched along a narrow ledge, looked over, saw that Miss Cedarquist was badly hurt but for the moment safe-half dangling, half propped on another ledge, above a long snow field and a deep crevasse. He could not pull her up without more...

It had shrewd, hard bitten Bette Davis to play the love-crossed governess; doe-eyed, dove-voiced Charles Boyer to play her great friend, the Duke de Praslin; hectic, handsome, breast-clutching Barbara O'Neil to play his insanely jealous Duchess. It had three charming, flounce-skirted children to play the Praslin daughters - Virginia Weidler, June Lockhart, Ann Todd. It had Richard Nichols to play the Duke's pathetic...
...Ferargil Galleries showed the raw-colored, precise paintings of Georgian Lamar Dodd, one of the South's few good painters. The Boyer Galleries showed the kaleidoscopic water colors of Nathaniel Dirk, a camoufleur in World War I. In the Bonestell Gallery, Frenchman Jean Charlot, a founding father of the famed Mexican school, exhibited deceptively simple pictures of broad, squat peons and solemn babies. The Downtown Gallery had as fine a first one-man show as a crowded season has seen-Julian Levis serene, spacious paintings of the seaside...
