...Sad as those figures are, they are dwarfed by the enormous bloodletting that has been inflicted on the Communists. The Pentagon announced that since Jan. 1, Allied forces have killed some 19,500 of the enemy, a rate of 1,770 weekly as compared with last year's average of 1,100. Even so, the Communists keep coming. U.S. intelligence last week put Red fighting strength up by 4,000 men to a total of 286,000, an increase that just matched last week's U.S. increase of 4,000 new men. When last week's totals...

Terry Lautz as the fool Feste sings with the mysteriously sweet voice one associates with revelations by deep mountain pools...
...novels of Sapper (H. C. McNeile), he was an overblown Blimp who hated "Bolshies" and took peculiar pleasure in flogging "Hebrews." In 1929, the cur was portrayed by Ronald Colman as a sort of homey Holmes - a friendly legal beagle who spent more time rolling his big sad eyes at the lady customers than he did hounding down the villain. In Deadlier than the Male, the adaptable Drummond shows up as the type of sleuth who happens to be in style: the beagle is redecorated as a wavy-haired wolf (Richard Johnson...
