But police believed that the crime was merely a particularly vicious case of armed robbery. At week's end, the police arrested...
...Summerthing intends to pour the proceeds from the Sunset Series into the neighborhood programs. These neighborhood programs make up the bulk of Summerthing, and are its chief value. The emphasis is on participatory activities. There is some music, but it is primarily local.
