...unpalatable-the steel-wool structure or the pink soapy filling. Sample Farrell: "Time moved slowly backwards through more than one thousand nine hundred and twenty years of A.D., and five thousand years of B.C., through all of the years and years of the Jewish calendar . . . before Hector was a pup, through the Neolithic and Paleolithic ages, back through and before the Darwin man, the Dover man, Pithecanthropus Erectus, and all of the fathers of the fathers...
...Ugly Dachshund is actually a Great Dane pup named Brutus. Hubby Dean Jones surreptitiously plants Brutus in a litter of "dachsies" belonging to Wife Suzanne Pleshette, who refers to herself and the little darlings as "I and the girls."

On the perimeters, the marines and infantrymen live like soldiers on perimeters everywhere-primitively, with pup tents, ponchos and C rations. The airmen at Danang boast big airy tents with screened windows and solid floors, a new PX and mess hall. Most of the 173rd Airborne and Big Red One troops at Bien Hoa now have hot meals and floors under their tents...
