PHILADELPHIA, HERE I COME! is an honest and lyrical, sentimental and humorous account of a young Irishman's preparations to leave his homeland for America. A uniformly excellent cast is headed by Dubliners Donal Donnelly and Patrick Bedford, who play the hero's inner and outer selves...
Expanding Empire. The same could be said of HUD. Weaver faces the task of coordinating diffuse and disorganized federal programs ranging from sewage-disposal research (under the Public Health Service) and the location of new inner-city schools (Health, Education & Welfare) to the design and route of metropolitan freeways (Bureau of Public Roads).

She was fired within two weeks, but did manage to land the girls some recording jobs in a background chorus. One day after school, they dropped in to tell Gordy he owed them some back pay. The ensuing conversation led to the audition and the contract that was to make...
