Story of the Week in Mr. Beller's Neighborhood.

STORY OF THE WEEK: Richard is a Forkhead. If you've never suspected Richard Hell might be a Forkhead--or if you¹ve never imagined Richard Hell on a tennis court, you might try this dose of Peter Nolan Smith¹s piquant remembrances of punk New York. Even before his transformation from hippie to punk, Smith arrived in New York in punkstyle: ditching an Olds 88 by the Christopher Street pier for a Boston lawyer. After time, Smith became a regular in the punk scene, and after even more time, he found himself across a tennis net with the man who brought us safety pin chic.
