Straight from a friend of mine at Pets and Pals I get the word that lots of people went driving in the country yesterday and stopped by the Pets and Pals shelter to get animals. Five kittens found new homes. One is Duke, eight weeks old, who now lives with Darlene Olivera in Lafayette. Smoky, six weeks, has been adopted by Jack Gram-mer in Richmond; Pearl Thompson of Lafayette took another little kitty, and Constance Causa of Walnut Creek promised homes to TWO CATS.

My friend, Doc, a dober-man, has a home today with five children Paula, Mark, Billy, David and Renee. This is INTERESTING, because Doc used to belong to a LITTLE BOY who was heart ride on "Tar Baby," a hitherto If you thought I looked SAD in that picture in yesterday's editions Of The Tribune, you should see me TODAY! You see, I am still a HOMELESS dog, living temporarily at the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, 330 Kennedy St. The thing that makes me SADDEST (although I suppose I should be a good sport and be HAPPY about it) is that lots of OTHER dogs and cats, too found homes yesterday. People came to get them here, and other FAMILIES adopted animals at the Pets and Pals shelter in Lafayette. A KITTEN (if you think kittens ARE cute) was taken from here by J.

T. Cherrington of Richmond. A Mr. Bobo of San Francisco and a Mr. Simponi of San Le-andro adopted puppies.

Maybe, my trouble is that I'm TOO BIG. I'm a golden re- broken when his family moved to Los Angeles and couldn't take the dog. When the boy left Doc at Pets and Pals he ASKED that his pet be put a home with a BOY. Now, Doc is living with THREE BOYS and their two sisters. Mrs.

Dorothea Smith of Rodeo adopted Mike, a nice springer, and there are two children in Mrs. Smith's family. Rusty, a cocker, has gone to live with the Robert Converse family in Lafayette. The children are Charles, 4, and Doris, 2. Mrs.

Shirley Middlekauff ADOPTED a tiny, male shepherd dog for her two children, Larry, 4, and Gale, 3. So, you see, it was a good day for LOTS of dogs and cats, but NOT for ME! Oh well, maybe this will be THE DAY I'M ADOPTED. I hope so. has been handled so ineptly on all sides that it has become a Brahma. mtior international problem.

The Saigon River flows past the window of the room where this is written. This section of the river is a quarter of mile wide and is deep enough to handle big steamers, its shores are lined with ships from the West, but the river is crawling as well with smaller boats, some hauling sand and wood to be unloaded by walking conveyor-belts of coolies, others engaged in that strange and intricate commerce that involves rice, bamboo, coconuts, teak, fermented fish, cloth and families.
