Specialists feared a plague of exotic lovebugs had hit town, but the cause has been traced to the opening of a sensational motion picture.

He booked himself into an Arizona dude ranch following a Tucson lecture. After only two days, he turned around disgustedly and flew home to New York: the weather was "lousy," and he couldn't stomach the group activities. Part of his difficulty, he adds, is that a career...
