ISLAND OF THE BLUE DOLPHINS. This intelligent and tasteful tale of an Indian girl (Celia Kaye) who shares an island exile with her dog is a model of what children's pictures ought to be but seldom...
Although he celebrates Mass with lengthy reverence, Cushing has little use for the trappings of his office. He wears Jack Kennedy's dog tag (a gift from Jacqueline Kennedy), but rarely wears a pectoral cross: "I have crosses enough without carrying one adorned with jewels."

This protection program, Dr. Tierkel suggested, may be just the ticket for Peace Corps workers and other people going into areas where rabies is endemic, especially in Central and South America, home of the vampire...
