Hickory Hill is a Virginia home that houses one turtle, one frog, one guinea pig, one donkey, one crayfish, two lizards, two horses, two servants, three salamanders, three toads, three dogs, three birds, three roosters, four ducks, six ponies, eight children, 22 tropical fish, hundreds of meal worms, and Bobby and Ethel Kennedy, 35. It is a bad house to live next to if you are not kind to animals. When Ethel made up her mind that the man next door was starving his horse to death, she quickly brought the creature over to Hickory Hill, where the horse died...
...three days London's genteel West End looked like a battlefield. Near Buckingham Palace, squads of police grappled with leather-jacketed toughs, while chauffeured Bentleys delicately inched their way through. Wild-eyed girls with straggly black hair and blue-jeaned boys with golden tresses were frog-walked into paddy wagons. Some 200 people were jailed. Taking advantage of the chaos, a six-man gang waylaid the Dowager Duchess of Northumberland, sped off in a white Jaguar with her jewels, worth $200,000.

The regulars tune in not for the latest witticisms of Gag Writer Rob Petrie, but to watch Dick Van Dyke, a clean-cut fellow with a frog in his throat. He looks believable. He isn't aggressively glamorous or excessively cute. He is a pretty bright guy whose brain is sometimes a ball of thumbs, and he is married to an American icon: the steady, dependable, reliable, beautiful, clean-limbed little mother who has the sort...
Special Chemical. Aznavour grew up in Paris, dwarfed by everything. At home, his immigrant family constantly sang the songs of their native Armenia, but from infancy Charles had what he calls "a little frog" in his throat. During the German occupation, his luck turned so sour that he took to hawking papers in the streets in order to support his night life as a ducktailed razou in tight pants and flashy jacket; when the nightclubs closed, he went home on roller skates. But shouting out headlines gave a resonant fogginess to his crippled voice, and soon Aznavour was a fulltime...
