Your May 17 cover article on Ray Jenkins, one of our favorite East Tennesseans, was highly appreciated in this section . . . You referred to him as the "Terror of Tellico Plains," which reminded me of another Tellico terror: the wild boar of that section, which, pound for pound, is the fiercest fighter of the mountains. Both terrors are scrappers, and with no disrespect to Ray, believe you will note a remarkable likeness in the jut of their jaws [see cuts...
When Roy Cohn took the witness stand, Committee Counsel Ray Jenkins asked: "You are not a defendant lawyer, I take it. You are a prosecutor, is that right?"

Or did the responsibility lie higher, perhaps in the White House...

Murder is the plot, but everyone is extremely gentlemanly about the crime, from the Holmesian police inspector (John Williams) down to the caddish assassin (Anthony Dawson). The crime is conceived by quick-witted Ray Milland, who, losing his wife's love, decides to murder her for her money rather than wait for her to leave him. A solicitous sort who doesn't want to hurt anyone unnecessarily, Milland arranges to spend the night of the murder on the town with his wife...
