...Darling Daughter (by Mark Reed; Alfred de Liagre Jr., producer) is an inconsequential pleasantry exhibiting Peggy Conklin, a cynosure three seasons ago when she bundled in The Pursuit of Happiness, as a serious young woman with journalistic ambitions which have no outlet for the moment except acting as her mother's secretary. The horn-rimmed glasses and blue jeans in which she first appears vanish quickly, but not the raspberry-ice freshness of manner which saves her cutenesses from being altogether silly. A topical note is injected into this warm and sprightly comedy when she asks her father...
Chelan is situated at the outlet of Lake Chelan, about four miles west of Columbia River and about 90 miles (air line) southwest of Grand Coulee Dam, is about 1,200 feet above sea level.

In this city (the Tsarist capital which is now Leningrad) at the time of the abortive Russian...
...pinscher's night-time barking. A judge threatened a $100 fine if the offense were repeated. Owner Schoeptlin took his dog to a veterinarian, had it debarked by a simple nicking of its vocal chords. Outraged were zoophiles by this deprivation of the dog's chief emotional outlet. Last week Buffalo's indignant S. P. C. A. concluded after careful study that the operation was not illegal, launched a campaign for a State law forbidding...
