...most scenic and storied waterways. It was a commercial route before Christ, and Julius Caesar first spanned it with a bridge in 55 B.C. Along its picturesque banks, flanked by medieval castles, are Drachenfels, the cliff where Siegfried slew his dragon, and the Lorelei rock, where a beautiful siren lured rivermen to their death on the treacherous shoals...
...takes a special kind of travel writer to steer his readers to steerburgers in Italy. And Temple Fielding is special. He is a superpatriotic expatriate (witness the U.S. flag that flies from the fender of his siren-equipped Cadillac convertible) and a Swinburned sentimentalist.

Since Son Rouven was born to her and Producer-Husband John Sullivan 20 months ago, Dahlia has been hewing to her London hearthside during film breaks and doing all those cuddly, maternal things that sloe-eyed vamps are not supposed to do. Devotees of décolletage need not worry, though; Dahlia is currently appearing in one screen steamer, Nobody Runs Forever, and has just completed another...
