Ed Supowit probes pieces of America's past
Oak Park resident Ed Supowit buys and sells oddities from baseball cards to beer cans, chasing nostalgia and profits. He pays up for rare items like a 1910 Honus Wagner card worth about 2000, trading with dealers and sometimes giving away finds to kids. He enjoys the hunt, calls collecting vacation like, and dreams of opening a large museum someday.

Fifth Straight Year Of Defeat Banking Bill Dies In House
Washington reports no bank reform bill this year despite Lance affair fallout. Representative Fer nand J. St. Germain, backed by both parties, withdrew the Safe Banking Act after failing to secure House banking subcommittee votes amid heavy ABA lobbying and opposition led by John Rousselot. A compromise watered-down proposal from Rep. Clifford Allen gained support, but St. Germain promised reintroduction in January, insisting on robust reforms acceptable to administration.
