McKINLEY Dial 236-4830 — ZURICH remaining dormant to the last minute, of late cane out in the open like a bolt from the blue. No one had expected its re- turn and people were more than delighted and were expecting normal time, Mothers also were glad of the standard time and not have to contend with the so-called daylight saving time, which is confusing to most people.
