Professor Raymond Barger was awarded a grant from the English
Department at Northwestern University. He and his wife were going
to England for a year so he could study. They left the management
of their apartment to the landlady, Mrs. O'Hara, with instructions
to rent it if she could but only if the tenant was respectable and
understood it would only be until they were scheduled to return.
Dick Monahan owns and operates a very successful business in Los
Angeles selling and installing various safety devices for the
protection of small children. He is doing so well he decides to
expand to Chicago. He sets up a schedule to spend the first week of
each month staying in a hotel. Johnnie Shore, the manager he hired,
put him in touch with Mrs. O?Hara suggesting it would be more
economical to rent an apartment by the month, even using it just
one week, than the cost of daily hotel stays. Anne Marie, Mrs.
O'Hara's beautiful granddaughter, was delighted to learn the
apartment would be empty most of the time. Employed by a public
relations firm from Washington, D.C. she provides very discrete
relaxation and entertainment to various candidates from the
campaign trail in Iowa. The location of the apartment was ideal and
the activities would be beyond all suspicion. Richie Barger,
Raymond's younger brother had also earned a PhD. but when he became
involved in riotous doings at Berkley, lost his job and wound up
back in Chicago living in a an alley behind a bar with two homeless
characters. He has a very poor relationship with his brother but
when his two friends learned about the vacant apartment they could
see no reason to be sleeping in an open alley. Raymond Barger,
happily studying in England, had no idea his apartment had been
converted into a TIMEHARE without his or Mrs. O'Hara's knowledge
nor, in fact, did any of those who were sharing the place.
