A summer resort is the scene of mild melodrame concerning a pirate treasure hunt and two gangsters up from the city. Kibbee moves pleasantly in and out of jail and spends every fifth minute kissing little Jason...
...those who prefer the open slope type of skiing. Located in Newton, within ten minutes drive or a half an hour on the trolley, this location is also the nearest to Cambridge and the most accessible. One steep slope of a quarter mile in width has enough trees to delight the skier who likes to run a slalom course at high speed.
