His given name was Arnold...
His given name was Arnold and we always called him Arny, Arny Krantz. He's up in years now and all of his fellow townsfolk continue to show him special respect. He never saved an old lady from her burning cottage, but the mention of his name begets a pause, a quiet thought. He graduated from high school in the early '30s and applied for the job of assistant manager at Harry Altherr's new business in town. Arny signed up for a bookkeeping course with ICS and soon proved that he could be Mr. Altherr's competent right-hand man. He was all of that.
