...investigation of the Secret Service (see story page 15). Democratic Senator Joseph Montoya, whose Senate subcommittee oversees the elite protective agency, has summoned Secret Service Director H. Stuart Knight to public hearings this week. Montoya wants to know why Moore was not at least followed after being interviewed by Secret Service agents on the night before she shot at Ford.

Moriah Baptist Church choir. Three years later she won the $2,000 first prize on Ted Mack's Original Amateur Hour with a humid rendition of Too Young.
