Munich's finest university was near by, abstract painters mingled with budding ballerinas, and professors were the local gods. Young Franz Josef might have gone right on cutting Weiss-null and Leberkds all his life if the parish priest had not observed how swiftly the lad caught the meaning of his Latin prayers and helped get him a scholarship at the crack Maximilian Gymnasium...
