...sooner was ex-Chicago Bootlegger Roger ("The Terrible") Touhy paroled from the Illinois state pen last month (TIME, Nov. 23-30) than a book titled The Stolen Years, Touhy's rip-roaring life story, was published by Cleveland's Pennington Press. The hot volume, co-authored by Chicago Newsman Ray Brennan, is chiefly devoted to protesting Touhy's innocence of the wacky 1933 kidnaping of Swindler John ("Jake the Barber") Factor, a crime for which Touhy served 25 years of a 99-year stretch.

Boosting Dietzel and L.S.U. was Orthopedic Surgeon Jack Phillips, an L.S.U. alumnus (and former football manager), who took Perry Lee to L.S.U. games, assiduously cultivated the elder Dunns, once even helped Mrs. Dunn take...
...national reputation, big stadium and aca demic standing. Next day Dietzel had the boy flown down to Baton Rouge for a two-day stay, produced All-America Billy Cannon to chat with his prospect. Thursday, back in Natchez, Perry Lee had a steak with Coach Wade Walker of Mississippi State, then excused himself to down another with L.S.U.'s Quarterback Warren Rabb and two other players specially flown in by Dr. Phillips...
