Headline Comics #63
An anthology issue adapted from true police and FBI cases. One story features a criminal named Len who disguises himself with talcum powder and pencil marks on his face to look older, then targets an elderly woman in a grocery store, flashing a counterfeit $10 bill; when she discovers the bill is fake, Len follows her home and attempts to rob her. Another story involves a soldier recently drafted who discusses his hopes of reconnecting with an old acquaintance named Kelly, a former dancer in New York, to see if they might rekindle their friendship. The issue also includes a religious advertisement for "Life-Study Fellowship" promoting prayer and faith as solutions to life's problems.
