Try one of these on for size: A silk taffeta Griswold family wedding dress from 1830, or a wedding dress linked to the feuding Hatfields and McCoys--black because of the many deaths in the family. Those and two dozen other vintage wedding dresses will be on display at the historic Howe-Waffle House beginning Saturday as part of the sixth annual Santa Ana Historical Preservation Society Home and Garden Tour.

Just after World War II, there was one man, one mountain and one rudimentary ski lift. Over the years, Dave McCoy built Mammoth Mountain into possibly the nation's best skiing mountain. The adjacent town of Mammoth Lakes remained a somewhat rustic, quiet village with no major resort hotels or focused town center. Most of Mammoth's visitors drove up from Southern California for weekends of skiing, fishing, camping or backpacking.

Her Hollywood career was brief--it began when she was 3 and ended before she was 5--but Jacquelyn Woll worked with screen greats Laurel and Hardy, Marie Dressler and Little Rascal Spanky MacFarland. Billed as Jacquie Lynn, she made her film debut in the Laurel and Hardy feature "Pack Up Your Troubles," appearing in a memorable scene in which she reads "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" to a sleepy Laurel.

Matt Kegel's season was going along so well, he probably figured it couldn't last. It didn't. After throwing only four interceptions in his first seven games, the Washington State senior quarterback tossed five interceptions and fumbled twice in last week's 36-30 comeback victory over Oregon State in Pullman. It got so bad, the home crowd started cheering any play that involved a handoff. Momma told him there'd be days like these. Well, if not momma, his position coach certainly did.
