...Bolivar Development Corp. Bankus reappraised its holdings at $8,000,000, the amount it owed the bank, traded them to Premier for its worthless stock.

Jurado played safe but he was nervous; his topped ball landed on a tiny island in the first bend of the brook, his third was trapped, and he took a six for the hole.
