Newscopy: "Captain Ahab scans the far horizon of Civic Center Plaza as he starts one of his most dramatic hunts. Completely equipped with umbrella, saber and binoculars, he believes every squab should have a father. Most squabs agree, but not all are lucky enough to have their legal battles fought for them by such a brave soul. Five-striper believes father's a bad egg."
