...with particular pleasure that we welcome our new publisher, who bears a name well known to every TIME reader. The signature on this page next week will be that of the son of TIME'S cofounder and himself a working journalist and business executive for 20 of his 44 years. Born in New York City, Hank Luce took his B.A. at Yale in 1948, following three years in the Navy, in which he served aboard a destroyer escort in the Pacific. After becoming a reporter for the Cleveland Press, he joined TIME'S Washington bureau...
Brilliant as Maranzano's plan was, it had one major flaw: Maranzano himself. Like his hero Caesar, Maranzano suffered from overweening ambition.

...uninhibited Midwesterner from a solid middle-class family, the girl chooses her professional name, Siam Miami, for its exotic, Oriental and slightly Jewish flavor. But she cannot choose the track she runs on or the sordid crew of middlemen and managers who exploit her. Chief among them is Stewart Dodge, who has 50% of Siam's contract. He also has had her body, and is bent on taking over her soul. In an odd struggle, he almost destroys his singer and nearly ruins his own empire in order to revenge himself upon the one thing he lacks the power...
