Bowery Bum Crosses Street in Haunting Tale of Risk
A New York City street scene mixes old Bowery squalor with modern traffic as a inebriated tramp weaves through lanes of limousines and trucks. The reporter recalls a near miss with a five ton truck before the bum safely reaches the curb and turns back into traffic, a stark portrait of danger and detachment. The piece shifts to brief notes on Americanizing French women running speakeasies, the late playwright J. Hartley Manners and Laurette Taylor, a recall of George Graham Rice's fraud conviction, and a witty newspaper quip from a radio show.
