Mr. Anthony's Love Clinic #2
This 52-page anthology presents real stories of love and romance as told to John J. Anthony, Director of the Institute on Marital Relations. The issue features at least two stories: "I Know What's Best for My Sister," in which a young woman named Rita seeks Mr. Anthony's counsel after facial reconstruction surgery leaves her feeling unworthy of her boyfriend Clem, ultimately learning to value inner beauty and self-worth; and "The Problem of Blanche Stevens," in which a man named Alvin must choose between his love for Blanche Stevens and his obligation to care for his invalid mother, presenting a dilemma that Mr. Anthony addresses on his radio program.
