There is a bridge table hang- ing on the radiator cap and the front bumper is caught in a sofa. Angus sighs regretfully over the destruction and slides out of the track. He is feeling his way through the debris when some- body turns a flashlight on him and then a lamp is lighted. In the • doorway of what was previously a cheerful sunroom stands Castaloni. He is holding an• ugly hunk of blue steel in his right hand and pointing the barrel right at Angus. "That was a mis- take, Macphiilips," he says, and he says it slowly, like he means it was the last mistake Angus will ever make. Angus is standing about 12 feet from Castaloni and his face is red and hot. He knows he can't hang on to himself much longer, so he makes a lunge for Castaloni. SERIAL STORY i LIB ;1,,N FR BY NORMAN KAHL • LAST WEEK: Agus burries Rn Adoreen's apartment and finds it »warming with policemen, who were called when Adoreen ccream- ipd. Anus goes back to till truck where Spike and two of his men are tied up. Augur( makes Spike tell him where Castaloni'r. secret 'r hiss eout is, and when they drive vsp in the darkness, Angus begins walking toward the house. Just then floodlights are turned on and sa :allot rings out. Angus drops to the ground, p N .,. Ac NC.US CRASHES THROUGH CHAPTER XI Angus is lying in the tall grass, flat on his face, like he is never oing to get up again. The flood- lights are still on and the grounds look like the middle of Madison &quare Garden on fight night. Castaloni is a' pretty good shot. That bullet came so close that .Angus could nearly read the cali- ber as it went by. Angus does not wish to get shot just now—but at the same time, he is convinced that the inside of that house with the Broccoli Ring is no place for .:Adoreen to be. Angus tenses his muscles, Then he springs to his feet and streaks back toward the truck. He -bakes another dive into the grass just as another bullet whistles by hi the general vicinity of where his ear was a split-second before. Without stalling this time, Angus makes a final dash for the truck and hops inside just as another chunk of sizzling lead crashes through the night. Spike is sitting up as grace- fully as the ropes on his body will allow. His face is white and he C,E,Lb,„ FSS does not'seem to be enjoying life. "I am glad to see you have changed your mind•, Angus," he says. "It would be better if we iyent basis to town and talked this over." Angus sees Butch and Trigger Tim have their eyes wide open, but they look as if they ys a e nst ot been invited to be guests r at a cannibal clambake. "We ain't got no rods with us, Angus," Spike says. "You threw them away. If we had them—" "Wouldn't do no good," Angus says sadly. "I never shot a gun in my life. If I wasn't so dumb I could think of something to do to get Adoreen out of there." Spike is perspiring, which is strange because the night is fair- ly cool. "I never could think when someone was pointin' a gun at me. Start driving and let's get out of here. Remember, it ain't safe sit - tin' here with Castaloni takin' a bead at us from inside." Aligns reaches down and turns the ignition key. He starts back- ing up toward the road. He can see the house pretty clearly now. It is sort of low, with a wing on each side. There are big French windows in each wing. If be could only get up close enough, it would be no trick at all busting his way in. The windows are almost big enough for a truck to get through— A truck! Gosh, why didn't lie think of that right away, fol e jams on the brakes and Sp ike back and smashes his head into Butch's stomach. There is a swish of wind and 13utch's eyes dose again. "Can't you be more careful, Angus," Spike groans. "Some- one's liable to get hurt." Angus looks around and says, "Hang on tight." "To what?" Spike asks. "And with what?" His hands and feet are still securely tied, and he is struggling to sit up again. Angus doesn't pay any atten- tion to him. The house is com- pletely dark now, but the flood- lights are still on outside. The shots and Adoreen's screams e elound th e from the right wing. there ise left side of the building, a broad clearing and the grass isn't quite so long. "Just hold on!" Angus mutters to Spike. He jams the transmis- sion lever into first and the truck leaps forward. Spike is still trying to figure out some way to keep from bounc- ing around the floor in the back of the truck. "Angus, not that way. Hey, Angus . . . turn sharper." Angus is steering a wide semi- circle. When the nose of the truck is pointed right at that big French window in the left wing, he straightens out the wheels and pushes his foot down on the accelerator as far as it will go. Spike gets back an his knees just in time to see what is happening. "Holy smokes!" he yells. "An- gus! Are you crazy? You're gonna run smack into. the house." • Angus leans back in the seat and takes a firm grip on the wheel. "Yeah. Just hang on Like I told you. Here it comes--" r M' The French windows are just big enough for the truck to get Operated by Pat Burton, twice winner of the North American and Canadian Calf Popintl Championships' at the Calgary Stampede, the Burton Ranch in Southern Alberta was setirto estab- lished in 1890 by. A. BRAND OF THE BURTON RANCH ISSUE 34—'42 * The Broccoli Ring goes white and starts to tremble violently when he sees this large order of muscle and flesh hurling towards him, but he waves his gun at Angus and then he drops a bullet into the etching on the wall right over Angus' head. Angus pulls up sharp and stands still. "Stay where you are, 1VlacPhil- lips," Castaloni says. "I missed you on purpose that time. The next time I won't." "Where's Addie?" Angus asks. Adoreen answers that herself, Angus can't see her, but her voice comes from somewhere in the other end of the house. "I'm here, Angus—in the kitchen. I'm all right," she says, even though her voice doesn't sound like it. "Be careful,' Angus. He'll kill " youghut up t" Castaloni snarls back at her. "Don't talk to Addie like that," Angus protests. Castaloni looks at Angus sur - prised, and then that unpleasant Mile breaks out, "Were you by any chance, referring to me, )dr. MacPhillips?" Castaloni asks in a hasty voice. "I said you shouldn't talk to Addie that way. I don't know why I'm standing here like this. I oughts be bustin' you in the jaw." "Maybe this little piece of hardware in my hands has some- thing to do with it," Castaloni suggests. "if you put that thing away, we can settle this in a hurry." "No doubt." "You oughta be ashamed of yourself," says Angus. "What are you gonna do with Addie?" "That," says Castaloni, still smiling, "is a question in which you will have no interest after a little while --not where you're going." k For the first time, Angus real- izes what a spot he is in, He knows he hasn't much time left to figure something out, and he is wondering if it was such a smart idea after all, ramming the truck right into Castaloni's house—when he sees something moving behind the racket chief. At first Angus thinks it must be a 'shadow, but it moves again and then he sees Adoreen stand- ing just behind Castaloni. She is looking straight at Angus and holding her finger across her lips. Angus' face brightens up like a theatre stage after the fan Banc- . er drifts off, anal then lie remem- hers that whatever Adoreen is try- ing to de, she oughtn't to be do- ing it because it is dangerous. He decides to stall for time. "If I'd known you were my boss and that you were a crook besides, I wouldn't have worked for you," Angus tells the Broc- coli King. "The feeling is mutual," Casta- loni sneers. "My boys are care- less. . . . They don't read the papers enough. They don't use their heads. That's why they let a dumb bruiser like you beat them up and leave them half-dead in a field somewhere in Jersey." "They ain't in Jersey. They're right here." Castaloni's eyes pop open. "What! What are you trying to hand me, MacPhillips?"

Niagara Falba, Canada "I'm not lyin'," Angus says earnestly. "They're in the truck right where 1 left 'em—next to the bed there. They ain't hurt much and—" Then Angus' mouth pops wide open and stays that way. He realizes in a second that he shouldn't have done that . . . . looked so surprised. But he can't help it, because Adoreen is stand- ing right behind Castaloni and she has a funny, wild glint in her eyes. In her right hand she is clutch- ing a frying pan and is raising it over Castaloni's head. The racket chief sees by Angus' face that something is going on. He swings around, his fingers tight on the gun just as Adoreen starts the skillet on its way down. (Concluded Next Week) TA LE TALK SALIE B.

War-Time Prices and Trade Board Cuts Out Frills Feminine glamor and S. tighten- ing war economy squared off for the inevitable showdown last week. Risking the fury of a "worn.an scorned," the Wartime Prices and Trade Board decreed heartlessly that: Nail polish shades will be re- duced from as many as 23 to six. Ladiee will have to get along on four instead of 16 lipstick shades, including refills. Rouges and face powders come in only four shades. Perfumes, colognes, toilet wat- ers, talcum powders and bath dusting powders will be limited to four odors—brand, if you think that's more genteel — per manu- facturer. Hand and face lotions, hair dressings, oils and tonics will be restricted to three types. And that's not all. The new order also prohibits manufactur- ers from distributing miniature or sample sizes or replacing new cosmetics on the market without permissiou. There's one con.olation for Flap- per Fanny and Dowager Dora— no effort will be made to stand- ardize varieties. For instance, the Board says, 10 produeeee of fate powders could sell a total of 40 different shades between them if each were restricted to four. Bu cutting down on the frills, the Board hopes to help keep the price ceiling In place, These new sacrifices, it predicts, will pare costs, inventories and waste, re- duce demand for fancy glass bot- tles and lower consumption of metal for containers, will Phonograph Records Thousands of popular dance selections to choose from.
