Buzzing the Bee. The Union hardly seemed a bargain at any price. Yet the Copley newspaper chain paid $2,650,000 for it last May, and Copley is not known for spending its money foolishly. The chain's 15 other papers are all well-established dailies in such cities as Joliet, Springfield and Elgin, ILL., and San Diego, San Pedro and Burbank, Calif.

Like a browser at a rummage sale, he sampled the new and the old and took the best from each. From the new he learned respect for the notes; from the old, devotion to what goes on between the notes. "I approached all those pianists like a bee," he says. "I owe them quite a lot, but I dismissed a lot in them too. If there's anything original about me, it is a composite of all of them...
