Also back - quite literally - on an old stomping ground last week was Chicago Correspondent Richard Woodbury, who reported to the Nation section on Round-the-World Walker David Kunst.

There was not much doubt about their mission. Fineman was lying on the floor while Hicks had his ear to the crack in the door. They had a tape recorder -which was unused, they said-and written notes.

Although Bamberg may not have been sufficiently wary of the possibility...
