...break in the weather, as he puts it, Davies-played with uncluttered perception by Donald Pleasence-burrows into the refuge offered by a former mental patient (Robert Shaw), the elder of two misfit brothers.

His goal is to build a workshed out back: "Then I'll be able to do a bit more with the house...

...story about the death of Bud Ekins in your Oct. 25 issue leaves out too much about the man. It is ironic that he should be remembered for a round-the-world race with Dorothy Kilgallen and that his departure should serve as a kickoff for a story of her early exploits.
