Some time between sunset and moonrise, against a blue-white autumn sky, seven geese head south over the Detroit suburbs. They sweep low by a bowling alley and veer purposefully toward the pond at Hazel Park race track...
...Lorean was building a reputation for questionable business dealings. A scheme to promote miniature race cars failed, under a cloud, in the mid-1970s. An accomplice in several controversial ventures has been Roy Sigurd Nesseth, a former used-car dealer about De Lorean's age. Los Angeles Socialite Hazel Dean, sixtyish, has claimed in court that Nesseth, acting in concert with De Lorean, defrauded her of several million dollars in the 1970s after she hired Nesseth to manage her affairs.

During the same quake, Store Owner Fernando Gonzalez watched $30,000 worth of liquor somersault from his shelves. Gonzalez was a new man to the liquor business, and an old timer cracked, "He should have...
Some of the jobless who stayed put are struggling to cope. From the Detroit suburb of Hazel Park, Larry Hampton, 26, sets out once or twice a week in his pickup truck to search the streets for scrap. Sheet metal brings a penny a pound; cast iron $45 a ton. On a good day, Hampton earns $15, and it keeps him busy. "I've just got too many bills and not enough money to pay them," says Hampton, who lost his job in a machine shop last November. "It's scary...
