Suspense at MLT: McKeesport Little Theater presents Frederick Knott's "Wait Until Dark" through Nov. 21. A blind girl is terrorized in her apartment by three thugs searching for a doll stuffed with heroin.

Twists and turns drive the plot as the victim tries to outwit her tormentors. Showtimes are 8 p.m. tonight at 2 p.m. Sunday. Call (412) 673-1100 or visit the MLT website for details. The Little Theater is located at 1614 Coursin St., near the Carnegie Library.

Also, the MLT 2nd Stage Players will host a dinner before next Saturday's performance. The menu consists of stuffed cabbage, mashed potatoes, corn, tossed salad, bread and butter, coffee or tea, and a variety of desserts. Cost of the dinner is $10, and tickets to the play are sold separately. Reservations must be received by Wednesday.

Daylight Saving Time Ends: Remember to turn back all of your clocks by one hour before going to bed tonight. Daylight Saving Time ends at 2 a.m. Sunday morning.

State Fire Commissioner Ed Mann says all Pennsylvanians also should replace the batteries in their smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors.

"Every firefighter is heartbroken when people are hurt or killed in a building that has alarms or detectors that are not in working order," Mann said. "They're not expensive and they save lives. Make it a habit to change batteries when you change your clocks."

Whether battery-powered or hardwired, alarms and detectors also should be replaced every eight to 10 years to ensure reliability, he said. In addition, smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors should be regularly tested by pushing the test button.
