KILLER'S PACE

7HE STORY: In order to save
Rose Bidault from the electric
chair, Star wiltiams, her lawyer
and my (Jim Marshalls) bess, did
some sleight of hand He was ex
posed, He mnow must prove Rose
innnocent or be disbarred. Inves
{ications have taken me to the La
Jolia elub and I'm talking to
Louise, girl friend of Al Nanabar
ro, who runs the place.

LLOUISE’S smile wont well with
per fluffy brown hair and it
wasn't spoiled by a ton of theatri
cal make-up. But it did hide fear,
1 guessed her age about 22. She
finished her drink and climbed
down from her stool.
«please excuse me., I have to
get ready for the show now.”
ghe vanished beyond the drapes
concealing Nanabarro’s office door.
About a quarter till 11 the other
oirls left the bar and went to
heir dressing room. It was only
five till 11 when Louise emerged
from Nanabarro’s office and
crossed to the same door. She
didn't look so good. She looked
as if she might have been crying.
Then Madam Sonya Sareeta ex
cused herself and left Stone alone,
At 11 sharp the show started. Lar
ry Stone movedto a ringside table
and as a master of ceremonies be
gan a routine of corny jokes, 1
crossed over and sat down at the
table with Stone.
He glared a split-second; then
he put on a patronizing grin.
“On hello, Marshall. I didn’t
l-how the place was this crowded.”
“1t {sn’t. I wanted a ring-side
view of the feature attraction.
Madam Sareeta. She’s quite a
lady magician to get you to a
dump like this.”
Stone glared again but turned
his attention to the floor show as
the lovely ladies of the line ap
peared. The girl Louise was indeed
lovely, and I envied Nanabarro in
spite of myself. ;
'he dance routine was followed
bv a skating act, then by a char
acter who made things out of *bal
loons. Next came a female vocal
ist and as a reward for staying
through it the customers were

again treated to a view of the line.
This time the ladies were be
witchingly attired in scanty yel
low bathing suits, and g&ight out
of a clear blue sky if ‘me that
the bathing suits were copies of
the one I'd seen on Miss Mayhew,
the charming receptionist at the
Prater office.
The girls had probably been
costumed for economy’s sake in
some popular line of bathing suits,
and quite by coincidence one had
been bought for Miss Mayhew's
special show for visiting morti
cians. After all, Carl Prather was
quite a customer here—he had
probably seen the bathing suits on
the girls and shopped for one just
like them for Miss Mayhew.
® * &%
I quit thinking about the mat
ter as Madam 'Sonya appeared
Even Larry Stone straightened in
his chair. His girl friend was at
tired in another creation about as
revealing as the gown she’d worn
into the place, and I had an idea
that if she couldn’t even do a trick
she would still be a sensation.
Sonya’s first few tricks were
routine; she drew a polite round
of applause. By then she had had
plenty of time to spot both Stone
and me at the table,
She ask for a volunteer from
the audience , and finally she lured
a round-haircut from the second
row of tables. She let him take
six 32 caliber cartridges out of a
box and load them into a nickel
plated pistol. The round-haircut
was so nervous that he dropped
two of the cartridges, but he fin
ally got the gun loaded. Sonva
asked him to show it around for
inspection.
One Joe at a table nearby in
sisted on breaking the gun, but he
seemed satisfied that the gun was
loaded with real live ammunition
and passed it back to round-hair
cut.
He carried the revolver tri
umphantly back to Sonya, who
apparently without a seconds hes
itation lifted it and started shoot
ing.
Everybody started diving uder
tables. Everybody excepting Stone
and me. I gathered that Stone had
either heard about the act or
Sonya had wised him up so that
he would’t behave like th 2 other
customers. I think it was her fifth
shot that she fired pointblank at
me.
I may be forgiven for being just
a little jumpy. I had had people
shooting guns at me, it seemed, all
day. Even when I knew it was a
gag with blanks, I wanted no part
of it. Though I didn’t dive under
the table when I saw the mussle
aimed at a spot between my eyes,
I did duck an:i d:xck fast and low.
&
That’s all that saved me. Tt
wasn’t a wad, I knew, that
zipped over my head. It was the
real thing. When I heard that, I
went clear down on the floor. Not
until Sonya had fired her final
shot did I come up again.
Stone was laughing to kill.
“It’s only a trick, you dope! Do
you think she’d use real bullets?”
I turned slowly and looked be
hind me hoping nobody else had
caught the slug intended for me.
The next row of tables was ele
vated on a terrace; the tables were
staggered, and apparently the slug
had gone between the two tables
behind me and burried itself in the
terrrace beyond. Nobody appeared
to have been hit. I turned back in
time to see Sonya retiring with a
terrific round of applause.
She was carefully avoiding my
eyes, and well she should have,
for she had expected them to be
glassy by now. She had hardly
expected me to duck. She had
counted on my behaving like a
normal human being who wants
to show everybody that he is in on
a gag. By rights I should have sat

SLOW READING REVEALS
HOOXKEY RECORD
KIEL, Germany — (AP) — A
nine-year-old Kiel boy has set
something of a record by playing
hookey from school for five mnths
before being caught.
He got away with it because his
elder brother, who attended the
same school, kept his secret. Lit
tle Fritz just went for daily long
walks when he should have been
in school. But he got caught when
his grandmother came to school
one day and demanded from the
schoolteacher “Why our little Fritz
hasn’t learned to read vet.”
A North Carolinian, Miles Dar
den, was one of the largest humans
on record. He weighed more than
1000 pounds.

Weekly Bible Lesson
Two Tragedies Of Greed
By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D.
- I lacked space in my last ar
ticle to complete the story of
Abraham and Lot, from my
“Rymed Introduction to the
Bible.” Before going to Moses
and others, I should like to add
the lines concerning Lot:
Too many people are like Los:
They're after all that can be gos;
And not for peace would they
forego
To gral') things for themselves. Oh
no!
For Lot, as he loocked o’er the plain,
Chose ;vhat he thought the most to
gain,
But selfishness defeats itself,
And in his selfish love of pelf,
Lot, down in Sodom, found full
soon,
That he had gone the way of ruin.
The way of ruin has been the end
Of some, who sought to apprehend
For self, the things that rightly
should
Have all been for the common
good.
The Bible tells of such a man.
His name was, as you’ll see, Achan.
Now war and loot are things that I |
Don’t like at all to justify.
But warlike times are erude and
rough,
And victors loot a lot of stuff,
Which, adage says, to them belong;
"l‘hou:h you and I may think it
wrong.
1 do not like this sale at all.
And yet it grimly points a moral.
The isrealites much loot, you see,
Had taken from an enemy.
{lhis Achan from the common
store
Tried from the others to grab more

Broad St. Lot
From what belonged to all he siol
And in bis tent hid in a hole,
Some bars of silver, and a robe;
And when within his tent a probe
Revealed this hidden, stolen stuff,
His punishment was dire enough,
I surely would not like to see
Upon a man’s whole family
So terrible a fate decreed,
Even for such a selfish deed.
And yet, like this old-time Achan
Is every selfish, grabbing man,
Who, in our modern years of strife,
When some are risking, giving, life,
Thinks just how he may for him
self
Make sure of gaining power, or
pelf.
For always in the wartime years
Are patriots and profiteers,
The Bible thus has much to say
About things happening today.
For now, as then, the men who

Are enemies of the commonweal.

Eleven Grounds
For Rent Hikes
There are more than 11 grounds
for rent increases in the federal
rent law but many Athens land
lords have not used them.
Rent Director Harold J. Robert
son says several reasons contri
bute to this situation, He listed
them as follows:
1. Some landlords evidently still
believe rents are frozen at war
time levels, They have not heard
that higher rents are possible on
numerous grounds.
2. A considerable number seek
no increase in the present rent
ceilings, finding them adequate.
3. Tales about red tape and de
lays may be discouraging some
landlords. Mr. Robertson wants
this group especially to know that
rent office procedures have been
speeded up and shortened.
4, A small minority consciously
violate rent law and try to ex
plain-away their action as a re
bellion against all forms of con
trol.
