Persistent characters and odd news in one column
A collage of brief items recalls persistence in public life and odd tales. Alexander W. Andrews, a candidate for Anne Arundel County Commissioners, continues a long quest after numerous primaries. Other notes cover a St. Louis elevator stuck since before March 15, a barber in Springfield collecting a long overdue debt, and a West Berlin dog show where two dogs waited their turn. The piece also threads wedding chaos in Mexico City involving Ernesto Anaya Malo, a strip-teaser, and a chaotic church scene, plus divorce cases in Los Angeles, Hartford shoplifting arrests, a retiring store owner, a premature baby with two teeth, and a torn-pants courthouse pause in Fort Worth.
