for alt0. The rest:

Alt1 AGF on the police (that's in a segment of the book not included in the Google Books preview).
Alt2 The article mentions all their appearances, but there's no one sentence that says "Amelia Earhart, Ted Shawn and Paul Robeson all appeared within 20 years" or similar
Alt3 AGF, but not a very interesting hook in my opinion.

With the exception of Alt2, all hooks are present in the article and sourced to a reliable source. There are no obvious policy issues regarding BLP/NPOV/copyvio wtc. Fivefold expansion (and then some) confirmed (921 * 5 = 4605, article currently stands at over 27k characters). Nomination was prompt. Image is the nominator's own work and is appropriately licensed. My personal preference is for Alt 1. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:55, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
