Cohen joins drug store chain after high profile deal
Los Angeles reports say Cohen became a 25 percent partner in a drug store chain in a deal closed Sunday midnight with no cash from him. Other partners include his brother Harry Epstein owner Guy Epstein and Tucson businessman Ralph Sills. He will back his name at one store and man a front counter 9 to 5 while holding keys to the pharmacy. Cohen asserts Gov. Pyle’s approval allows him to reside in Arizona if lawful and tax compliant, and he notes his Tucson visit was pleasant despite his financial troubles. He sold a Cadillac for 12000 dollars after claiming a 5000 dollar loss and California restrictions prevented driving it.

Helicopters Seen Redefining Landings in Future Wars
In Korea airmen eye bigger helicopters like a 50 passenger machine with 150 mph speeds. The H-19 already serves, while Navy contracts for experimental choppers hint at rapid troop airlift and air sea rescue. If practical, hundreds of 50 to 100 passenger craft could outrun beaches and reshape amphibious assault and civilian rescue.
