...Navy's latest proposed stratagem is simple: a bash on the head for every gooney. But chances are this plan will never really get off the ground. First of all, it will take the Navy at least five years to purge the birds: young gooneys leave Midway shortly after birth to wander, return only at the age of five. Furthermore, back in the U.S., outraged conservationists have organized a concerted protest to Congress against the projected slaughter...
...British Labor Party and its mightiest press mouthpiece, London's Daily Mirror, have long drawn strength from a common source: young people. The Labor Party grew to power with help from Britain's discontented, we-can-change-the-world young folk. The Daily Mirror (circ. 4,571,000), serving up a spicy blend of triangular love, bloody crimes, and pictures of young ladies in the near buff came to command the world's largest newspaper audience of readers under 35 years: some 1,500,000.

Last week Dr. Sills got his permanent license from the Georgia Board of Medical Examiners...
...like Gigi, was adapted from Colette by Anita Loos. As Gigi hoisted a young girl, Audrey Hepburn, into the limelight, Chéri may hoist a young man, Horst Buchholz. Playing the title role, this European film actor manages-not wholly through ability but through his matinee-idol appearance-to be the most effective part of a generally empty show. He plays the overindulged, sexually precocious, humanly immature son of a pre-World War I grande cocotte, who has brought him up to make a rich marriage...
