Family Affair. In Manhattan, a homecoming merchant seaman, informed by customs authorities that it would cost $5 to take his lately acquired Russian wolf hound ashore, decided to wait a while, eventually forked over $30 for the wolf hound and her five brand-new puppies...
...hand except to be himself, is just that and accordingly walks away with the show. As a onetime vaudeville headliner reduced to the want-ad columns, a sort of daftly faithful hound for the heroines, this wonderful clown does little that is new except find his long-lost son, in the picture's funniest shot.

...Navy is a strange animal, as many members of the Supply Corps junior class are finding out at the present ime. A few months ago the majority of the juniors were college kids. This stage was quickly followed by transition to the level of a hound (chow, liberty and/or sack variety). Now they're all, willing or no, supply beavers, gnawing away at the Manual. But the climax came early this week when Lt. Comdr. Ambrose received the literal bird during his weekly lecture to the junior class in Potter Auditorium. The bird in this case, the class ornithologist claims...
