...Similar retaliation would meet any hostile move against U.S. ships convoying Nationalist men and supplies through the Red picket line around Quemoy. The news behind this promise: orders had already gone out to the Seventh Fleet to break the blockade by escorting Nationalist supply ships to within three miles of Quemoy-and perhaps all the way to the beach if Chiang's gunboats failed to beat off Red raiders...
...goals. Melvin got a pharmacy degree, decided to switch to medicine, went back to medical school at the University of Utah. Loujean helped out their budget by working as a secretary, did her housework nights while Melvin studied and first baby Melvin Jr. slept. After Melvin graduated, the family moved to Seattle where he interned in the Public Health Service Hospital, then to Phoenix, finally to Staten Island for his promising $5,700-a-year surgical post.

Boot Polish (R. D. Purie; Hoffberg),the first Indian-made film to be released generally in the U.S., has drawn quick comparison to Shoeshine, Vittorio De Ska's 1947 Italian classic.

More importantly, their coupling might becloud the fact that Boot Polish is a nearly flawless little gem of a fable that glows with its own brilliance, without need of outside illumination...
