[newspaper clipping- (few letters cut off)ILLARD MOTLEY, Chicago's prize-winning (a)uthor, writes from Mexico that he plans to return here next month to introduce his pals to the 11-year-old Mexican lad he is (quotation marks penciled in) adopting. The youngster was a street urchin when Motley found him.]

[line drawn from newspaper clipping to paragraph) Pops, why do the man put quotes around "adopting"? Ah doesn't understand the meaning of this- but am terrible suspicious. He wont be a "street urchin" long, Jim. Not unless they change the name- That aint what they used to call it.
