In rapid succession he acquired a list of good things that would stagger the imagination of the dreamiest moppet in the highest hayloft on the hottest day. Items: a ranch, a race horse, a twelve-room home, 19 radios, a jazz band, two dogs, the junior singles tennis championship of the Pacific Southwest, a wardrobe like Clark Gable's, two automobiles, a hideaway apartment in Beverly Hills, a football team, a colored...

As dramaturgy, the device of having Bank-robber Hanson (Craig Reynolds; and associates take refuge in the barn which is G-man headquarters, may smack of the coincidental; as fantasy, it blends properly with the hayloft fantasies of the Penrod age.

With Longin as their guide, a delegation of three members-Stanley Orlenski, 14, Joe Sawicki, 14, and Anthony Mazur, 14-set out for vengeance. They found Joe Przystas at home carrying a scuttle of coal upstairs. Stanley drew a rifle from his trouser leg, fired at the coal scuttle to frighten...
...essential violator of Prohibition, the person who uses alcoholic beverages. . . . There are millions of him throughout the land. Whether he serves wine to his dinner guests, whether he brews and drinks a makeshift beer, whether he keeps a jug of corn or apple in his oat bin or hayloft, he instinctively feels he is within his personal and private rights and it's nobody's business. . . . Drop shams and subterfuges and declare the user of alcoholic beverages the criminal and turn loose your enforcement forces against...
