...serious effort called Economic Forum. Outlook lapsed into coma from which it emerged New Outlook. Police Gazette ended a long senility spent in contemplation of a bawdy prime. In its place sprouted a crop of nasty weeds like Calgary Eye-Opener, published by the ex-wife of Capt. Billy Fawcett. Out went innumerable local sheets like Manhattan's Metropolitan Home Journal. In came innumerable others like William H. Hanna's respectable Minneapolis Opinion, scandal-mongering Detroit Merry Go Round and Hollywood Peep Hole.
