Ministry for its on-going support of Pitch -In,
and we are very pleased to have a major
corporation such as Sunoco backing our ef-
forts this year," added Hook.

A shrill scream pierced the tense silence.
There he sat, his skin as black as midnight,
leatherlike pinched and wrinkled. His eyes, ;
deep hollows, were full of fiery hate. His
clawlike hands slashed through the grating ,
air and his monkeylike feet held fast to an
invisible bar.. suspended in midair. ,His
smoky, yellow teeth were chiselled to
translucent points, light red staining the
very ends. A flash shot through the
background, another piercing scream rip-
ped through the air, all went silent and
darkness flooded over the screen. -by Alison
