Mrs. Henry C. Owens of 505 N. Fifth Ave. says her 12-year-old son Donald is a "very happy" boy. That description is a sharp contrast to the picture of a dejected youngster published in The News last week. A small puppy made the difference. Last week, Donald's dog, "Queenie," was struck and killed by a truck. The picture of Donald holding his dead dog's leash brought some 25 to 30 offers of dogs for the youngster, according to his mother. Donald's new puppy, which he named "Queenie," came from an anonymous donor. (News Photo By Cecil Lockard)

"The man was tied down to an immature sexual and possessive notion of what love is all about. He helped integrate the Negro music with white music. I don't think he did something entirely new. Just listen to Duke Ellington. Well, when you get down to it though, I guess he did break down some social norms. He talked about about the beat. It was all sexual." David McCarthy, 23.
