Weidman Plans Ten-Volume Benny Kramer Series
Jerome Weidman outlines a ten volume fiction series about Benny Kramer, a fictionalized version of himself. The first two, Fourth Street East and Last Re, draw on his youth in New York's lower east side during the 1920s. He estimates about fifteen more years of work and hopes to add more books later.

California Family Hunts Gold For Fun
Berge, a former Marine, and his wife Jeanne relocate to California’s Trinity River area to prospect for gold. Their children join in with a tent and gear, chasing nuggets averaging about the size of a pumpkin seed and worth roughly $1.50, with Berge recounting a six-year-old find under two feet of water weighing about a third of an ounce. They return each year to known spots as the river recedes, treating mining as a seasonal hobby rather than profit.
