Zayde Is Super-Sleuth
•
in New Detective Mystery

Seventy-two-year-old
Max Guttman is an unlikely
candidate for the role of de-
tective, and for that reason
he is successful.
Guttman is the hero of
Arthur D. Goldstein's mys-
tery "Nobody's Sorry He
Got Killed," published by
Random House. Guttman,
who has participated in the
solving of two previous mur-
ders, proves to be successful
again when a co-resident of
the Golden Valley Senior
Citizens Center requests his
help.
The co-resident, wealthy
Jessica Stone, major stock-
holder in Armstrong Indus-
tries, asks the spry old gen-
tleman to investigate--a
murder for which her
granddaughter, Susan
Eliot, has been charged.
Guttman accepts the
case, but not without his
daughter's attempts to
stop him. However, the
director of the center con-
vinces her that it is a pro-
ject beneficial to Guttman
since it keeps him busy.
In an uncomplicated, ea-
sy-to-follow narrative, the
author relates how Gutt-
man and his team of Irregu-
lars — residents of the cen-
ter, including Mrs. Kaplan,
Mr. Mishkin, Mrs. O'-
Rourke, Miss Brady and Mr.
Carstairs — undertake the
job of investigating the mur-
der of Harry Vincent, the
man with whom Mrs. Eliot
worked (at Armstrong In-
dustries) and with whom
she was having an affair.

Israel Bank Has
Canadian Branch

NEW YORK — Israel
Discount Bank Limited has
announced the opening of a
representative office in To-
ronto, Canada, and the ap-
pointment of David E. Barr
as its Canadian representa-
tive. The new office will be
located in the Commercial
Union Tower, Toronto Do-
minion Centre.
Israel Discount Bank
Limited, established in
1935, is one of the three
largest commercial banks in
Israel. Its assets exceed $3.5
billion, with 208 branches
throughout Israel and a
main branch in New York
City. The bank ranks among
the 200 largest commercial
banks in the free world.

dustries, and although they
are met with disbelief, the
employes almost readily of-
fer information about Vin-
cent's activities and their re-
lationhips with him. When
Guttman finds that most
people didn't like Vincent,
the case becomes more com-
plicated.
What makes the book en-
joyable is its fast pace, a
sprinkling of Yiddish and
the incredibly logical way
Guttman discovers the mur-
derer. Goldstein's "Nobody's
Sorry He Got Killed" is an
unusual tale of a Jewish
grandfather's special adven-
ture, and makes for pleasur-
able leisure reading.
