Dentist Garvin vowed to appeal his case to the state and nationa' dental societies and the courts, if necessary. His column, ballyhooed by General Features ("More reader interest than a) politics, b) baseball, c) Elvis Presley, d) canals, or e) Marilyn Monroe, COMBINED!"), is running in about 50 papers. Meanwhile, the Des Moines Register and Tribune Syndicate is starting a rival column written by a Cleveland dentist who is retired and thus need not heed the cries of his fellow dentists should he touch them on a sensitive nerve.

From her father's side of the family she has inherited the chunky frame of a Swiss farm girl, with heavy hips and strapping thighs. Richard...
...room was full of famous and beautiful women. "But when Maria walked in," says an actor who was there, "it was as if the sun had come out. and a lot of stars looked suddenly pretty dim." Producer Pandro Berman (who had just lost Marilyn Monroe for the part of Grushenka, and could not be sure that Warner Bros, would let Carroll Baker play it), took one startled look at Maria and got on the phone to Director Brooks.
