Pennsylvania's Governor Bill Scranton, latest entry in the Republican presidential race, last week invaded the Goldwater-minded Midwest. In Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Colorado and Kentucky, Scranton and his wife Mary received warm welcomes, addressed national convention delegates, even managed to win over a few who had previously leaned toward Barry...
...Sierra country fills the wide screen with some breathtaking acreage that no TV oat opera can duplicate. Actor Ebsen seems an authentic embodiment of covered wagon grit. And though Dullea's bad boy characterization scarcely conceals that he is easily redeemable-a sort of boor next door-his warm, fresh, quietly persuasive scenes with Actress Nettleton recall his vivid debut in David and Lisa, and enhance both actors' reputations as a pair of arresting young talents for whom better movies ought to be made...

The throng fidgets: gloves drop, eyeglasses break, drunks mutter, old men complain and ask to be taken home, sophisticates yawn but stay rooted, teen-agers warm up for the squeal. Someone starts the rumors ("She's gone to Beirut, or Beverly Hills, or some place; she's not here; she's never coming; she never has been here, neither has he"). Always there are people, deposited by misfortune on the wrong block, who stumble bewilderedly...
