A FAMILY in New Jersey had a big strayed or lost airedale come to be door recently, and the two kids in the house let it in. Daddy advertised, but got no answer, and soon the dog was the star of the house. He proved to be trained and full of tricks, as well as a first class watchdog. Daddy kept telling mommy he wished he could find the owner, a wish which would immediately send the kids into an uproar. It isn't that he doesn't like the pooch.

"If I could find the owner," he explains, "maybe he would come and train the kids, too.

Taylor is slick, suave and solicitous, the per ion tun By HENRY T. MURDOCH Of The Inquirer Stajf When it was produced, "The Finest Hours" was not intendedj as a requiem for Sir Winston' Churchill. A eulogy, but not an. obituary. And obituary it is not It is a pulsing, supremely well made documentary about an historical figure who was reallyj a "man for all seasons" andj particularly, those in which he! lived and fought and to which he lent his wit and wisdom and; cigar-tfited aggressiveness.

Victor Wolfson has written; the scenario (which, in retrospect, now seems to be the; libretto for a grand, passionate' opera). Its text is largely, al- though not completely, based; on Churchill's graphic series, "The Second World War." Skill-, ful producer and overall director of this film at the World ancT Bryn Mawr theaters is Jack Le' Vien. SIR VHNSTON' FEATURED Orson Welles, no stranger to; the rounded phrase, is the sur-j fact narrator but the main: speaker is Sir Winston himself. Once again we hear this British; lion roaring back at the Nazi' blitz and declaring in his own! historic terms that Britain will1 fight everywhere there is or isn't room to fight. The film well points out that! Churchill was a reserve strength, ready to be used in emergencies.

Betw een wars, he may have been repudiated: his views on empire may not have been the exact expression of whatever liberal theories be-j came evident in the 'ping' times of peace. But let a crisis arise and this descendant of the Duke of Marl- borough (and American pio-j neers) was welcomed into the Cabinet, not only as a practicing strategist but as an inspiration for a Free World which was fighting for its life. CAREER IS TRACED The vears of conflict occupy most of the film, but there are side views which also illumi-j nate a statesman's career. With: a combination of stills, news-i reels, both old and compara-i tively new, a carrer is traced through the spacious halls of Blenheim Castle, through school days, through Boer War exploits as an irrepressible (and Boer-captured) war through political campaigns and; Admiralty service during the; First World War. These are the springboards1 for his Second World War participation.

He is an ubiquitous man on battlefronts, in the houses of Parliament, in the conferences with President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Josef Stalin. 1 Between, there are gracious of a loyal Lady Churchill who seems to have had the elo-; quence, if muted, of her husband, and scenes of a rusticated, statesman painting vigorouslyj the landscapes soon to be tcr-, rorized by bombs. I Churchill himself has taken many volumes to recount the history of the English speaking people and more to recite his war memoirs. No one move can.

A few days after the Inaugural, Pierre Salinger had lunch with California Democratic Party Secretary Joe Cerrell, when into the restaurant came Davey Burns of "Hello, Dolly!" Burns is a dedicated Democrat, and he growled at Salinger, who lost to George Murphy: "How could a man with your background in politics lose to a tap dancer?" Salinger thought it over a moment.
