Garner $100 between you and the three other members of you tin-alley string quartet, and Richard Mackey, BSO horn player will run through the Mozart horn quintet (K. 407) with your group.

The cops were certain they had their man: the hooker was last seen leaving a nearby tavern with Lang, a Chicago dock worker, and a speedy investigation turned up bloodstained clothing in his apartment. Lang's alibi? He had none. But then he could not talk. Nor could he hear, read, write or use sign language. Lang was a deaf-mute who communicated solely by gestures and rough drawings. Because...
