L. Ron Hubbard 
Professor Was a Thief [EPUB ebook] 

Primed for promotion to the World-Journal city editor, grizzled senior reporter Pop is stunned when it’s announced that young Leonard Caulborn, the publisher’s son-in-law, will get the post. Worse, the lad wants him out. In protest, Pop demands to be given a beat again and gets his wish. . . only now he’s got just two days to find the "real" story about a dead-end assignment- a month-old physics lecture- or be fired.
