...Amadeus Mozart was a harpsichordist at three, a composer at four. Ludwig van Beethoven fiddled at five; Johann Sebas tian Bach permitted himself, a small moppet, to be discovered poring over music at night in the garret. But Bob and Ted Maier, five-and six-year-old sons of Guy Maier, who was Lee Pattison's two-piano partner until last March (TIME, March 2), are no altruistic prodigies. They compose and write lyrics only when bribed to do so by their father. Last week was published their first songbook: Sons; Cargo (G. Schirmer...

In ensuing months the scope of the publication grew wider, its purpose less clearly defined. A typical article of last month's issue was "Guy McAfee, 'Capone' of L. A."-an expose of the purported vice-reign of Former Policeman McAfee. The magazine had a financial backer in portly, grey-haired Charles H. Crawford, a local political boss who had been involved in many an unsavory mess. And last February it acquired...
...member of the staff of this publication is molested in any way it will be the signal for the opening ... of a well-filled safe deposit box now reposing in the vaults of a certain bank." The same thought occurred when Widow Frances Spencer cried hysterically: "Ask Guy McAfee who did it!"
