...Eliot House, Conway developed a deep interest in the antiquities of Greece. ("This is inevitable when you are under the influence of Finley," he says.) He spent the past summer traveling in a rented car through Greece and Sicily with a friend, inspecting the relics at Syracuse and Palermo, and visiting Athens, Rhodes and most of the Aegean area. Conway has also travelled extensively in rural France, and "can't quite choose between Rome and Paris as the most beautiful city in the world...

When Perri sleeps, she dreams in a combination of live and animated effects, just like other movie stars, and the dream figures engage in the usual elaborate ballet-though of course they are not people, but dear little bunnies. Producer Disney has even provided Perri with a love interest: a bushy-tailed charmer named Porro. As Porro chatters away at Perri in squirrel language, Narrator Winston Hibler translates the scene in a voice so warm and soft that children in the audience may almost mistake it for Perri's own. "To every creature." he gently explains, "comes...
