Vaughn and Joey Giambra.

sophical thought, or in any phase of culture or of the arts with the
combined total of the free world."

"Everyone knows by now the links between the anti-government
plots in Damascus and the spying center in Washington."
Hollywood Actress Marie Wilson and her husband, TV pro
ducer Bob Fallon, in giving up an infant girl they had obtained
from an unwed mother "for the sake of the child":
"As parents, we felt that Chris belonged in our home but we
sincerely hope that the baby's natural mother will give her all the
affection that we had planned for her."
