"I know about you and Condor, You were enemies bock in Kan sas," the sheriff said , "Someday," Rosser said, "I'm going to kill Condor." . "Not today?". " "I'll choose the time and the place. When there's just Condor and me." "That's fair, Rosser." - They had reached the Pleasure Palace. Without hesitation, Ros ser pushed open the door and went inside. He heard Parker's iootsteps behind him. It was a stakeout, of course. Sim Akins and another man were at the bar; two gun-carrying men were at the right of the room, not too far back and Flon was just outside the door of Condor's oflice, which stood .open. Three men were carelessly watching from the balcony that went around three sides of the huge room. Rosser barely glanced around the room, then stepped to the bar, a few feet from, Sim Akins. "Tell your boss I'm' here." " "Tell him yourself." "Your job," Rosser said delib erately, "may be shooting people in the back. I don't want to make it too easy for you." "You're asking for it, Rosser!" "Not from you, I'm not. You won't stand up and fight. . . ." "Don't be too sure of that." Akins scowled at Rosser. "I haven't heard of you facing any man lately." .., The inference was plain enough, but Rosser had been ex Answer to Previous Puzzle c u biai IaIpIcInI lIaIsI SBi!lD au 5 lb SI t I T e FT ;ST5p"lrl I R A J. 5 I N SE? p) , It.

Condor came forward, his face twisted into a frozen smile "Heard you were in town. Al ways want to see my old friends." "We're friends. Condor?" "This is a new year, a new town " "And a new deal?" Condor shrugged: "You're call ing it." "Any deck you're dealing is a crooked one, Condor." THE frozen smile on Condor's fac- became a little more solid. "You're laying it on the line." "Thai's right, Condor. You don't dare kill me with, this many witnesses, but you'll try to get me in the dark when I least ex pect it. I know that. ... I also know that I'm going to kill you in the end." 'You're making that threat in front of these same witnesses." Condor looked past Rosser at Wes Parker. "You heard him, Sheriff." . "I heard him," said the sheriff. Gim Akins took a forward step. You're lalkin' mighty big for an old" That was as far as he got. Rosser smashed him savagely in the face with his fist. Akins went back against the br , caromed from it to the floor. He rolled over, struggled to his knees and groped for his gun. He got the weapon clear ana Parker kicked it from his hand. There'll be no gunplay here," he announced. He drew his own revolver and sent a quicK look around the room. "Call In your dogs, Mr. Condor." The smile was nnauy gone 'Neurotic' Tab May Be Pinned On Hot Weather Sufferers By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPI) In hot summer weather it will cool you to know there is a scientific move ment afoot to pin the tag, "neu rotic," on some of the people who lose their pep when the sun is boiling and the humidity is high people who can't work, eat, or sleep right and get extremely ir ritable. More cooling scientific news is that the term, "sun stroke," is ob solete and some scientists want to abolish it. The term is inaccurate, that's what is wrong with it. It isn't the sun which strikes the vic tims down, but the failure of their own "heat regulating" chemistry. It probably wasn't too good in the first place. . . All this stems from planned re visions of the international statis tical classification of the World Health Organization. Its main idea' is for all medical men of all coun tries to classify all bodily disor ders in the same way. Then they can all be given code numbers which will have the same mean ings everywhere. The code number for "sun stroke" now is N 981.1. The pro posal' is to abolish the number and rely entirely, on the number for "heat stroke" (N 981.0) which is something that can be' set off by ally intense, snstainpd heal, such as that; of a furnace or the deep interior of a coal mine. There now is no code number for what the revisers have classi fied as "chrinic heal neurotic re action," and they would like for it to have one. it is caused by "prolonged exposure to a hot en vironment," (hey said. The syriip toms are' "loss of energy, initia tive, interest; difficulty in concen trating, working and sleeping; complaints Of dizziness, "black Compromise Reached On Klamath Timber Usage WASHINGTON (UPI) House- Senate conferees reached agree ment today on legislation provid ing for disposition of the timber assets of the' Klamath Indian tribe in Oregon. The compromise climaxed a four-year legislative fight over how to distribute valuable timber stands on the Klamath reserva tion after the Federal government terminates its supervision of the tribe. Rep. Al Ullman (D-Ore.) said he anticipates no difficulty in get ting swift" House and Senate ap proval of' the conferees' action. He predicted President Eisenhow er would sign the measure. , The compromise, agreement pro Hides for appointment of a three man committee to make a new, up-to-date appraisal of the value of the Klamath timber land and to make a report to Congress by April 1, 1959. It also specifics that whoever takes over the Indian property must operate it on a "sustained yield basis so as to. provide for a continuous supply of timber." The Klamath reservation con tains one. of the nation's most valuable stands of Ponderosa pine.' Under an act approved by Con gress in 1954, later amended, the Federal government will termi nate its control Over the tribe on from Condor's face. He made a small, g e s t u re with his right hand, his eyes still on Rosser. "You said your piece, Rosser." "I think we understand each other." Rosser turned and walked carelessly out of the Pleasure Palace. . ' ROSSER walked to the hotel. He climbed tq his room, entered and, locked the door. He took off his coat and extended his right hand. It trembled violently. He shook his head. He had been in no real danger. Riley Condor had made the stakeout only to impress him. He would never have Rosser shot down in broad daylight, in his own saloon. A hotel corridor at night. A shot in the dark that was Riley Condor's trade-mark. A hired assassin, like the man from Idaho, back in Broken Lance. Rosser had spent a month in Idaho, the previous winter. A man named Lee Ring had left his old stamping grounds in the Hole-in-the-Wall country late in September and hod not returned. That much he had learned. But Lee Ring was only a name. The people who knew the name could not describe Ring and those who knew him were as hard to find as Lee Ring himself. Even if ROsser had found them, they were not the' kind who would talk Rosser removed his boots and stretched out upon the bed. He had dozen only for minutes at a' time during the night He was bone-weary, yet he could not SleeiJ. His mind kept wander ing. ... Not to the scene at the Pleas ure Palace, but to the woman who had accosted him the night before on the veranda of the hotel. Susan Tavcnner. She was so much like Carol Grannan. "No," he suddenly said aloud. Carol Grannan was dead. She was the only woman he had ever loved in his life, the only woman he would ever love. And she vas" dead. ' ' (To Be Continued) outs,' loss of weight and appetite; irritability, bad temper, depres sion." There may or may not be something wrong with them physi cally, but there is with their emo tions and nerves. But on the whole matter of heat and the human body, there is much medical confusion, the re visers said, and they suggested reducing a hodge-podge of de scriptive terms, many of which do not describe, to a mere 14. These would be grouped into general categories, such as; Failure or impairment qf the bodily heat regulating "mechan ism," which by opening and clos ing pores, by widening or narrow ing blood vessels, by increased or decreased blood circulation, and by other means, keeps the interi or body temperature the same no matter how hot (or cold) it is out side. Complete failure of this "mechanism" is a grave occur rence; it is often fatal. "Salt deficiency in a hot envi ronment." This causes a variety of bodily disturbances, mainly muscular cramps. Much sweating takes body salt with it. More salt in the diet corrects that. , Various disturbances of the sweat glands themselves. Perhaps the chemical thermostats are messed up and the glands don't responde. Mjaybe the channels are blocked and though they want to produce sweat, the sWeat doesn't get out. This leads to summer dis comforts of a number of forst, such as prickly heal and similar skin troubles. Incidentally, medi cal science deplores efforts to pre vent swearing. Sweat' whether hon est or not is healthful. The proposed revisions, worked out by the British Medical Re search Council, arc" being consid ered by co-operating groups here and in all other countries. Aug. 13, lflliO. A subsequent, battle developed over the best means of disposing of the approximately 700,000 acres of Klamath timberland and at "the same time insuring the forest's preservation. The House and Senate passed separate bills which provided for first putting the Klnmuth land up for sale to private interests. The Federal government would take whatever was left over.- Thfe chidf difference was over language set ting forth the sustained yield pro visions of the bill. Under the '. cOriilSromise agree ment no Klamath land can be sold until after the appraisers make their report to' Congress. ' Ullman and Sen. Richard; L; Ncuberger (D-Orc.i, Hie two prin cipal sponsors of the Klamath legislation, said they felt that the bill finally agreed upon "will serve the best interests of the Klamath Indians." Admiral's Friends Fight Snub WASHINGTON (UPI) The "case of the missing invitation',' continued to intrigue Senate friends of Rear Adm. Hyman G. Rickover Tuesday. Rickover, so-called "father" of the nuclear submarine, wasn't in vited to last Friday's White House ceremony at which it was an nounced the nuclear submarine Nautilus had journeyed between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans under the North Pole. A number of senators have been hopping mad about it. Sen. Clinton P. Anderson (D N.M.), vice chairman of the Joint Congressional Atomic Energy Committee, announced he would introduce a resolution calling for a special Congressional Medal of Merit for Rickover. Anderson, in a Senate speech Monday night, deplored the fail ure of the President to invite Rickover. The White House had said there was not enough room to include Rickover on the invita tion list. "It was more likely due to limitations in space within the Navy for a man who is and has been outspoken in his criticisms of the ' old outmoded Navy concepts," Anderson declared., Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D Minn.) said the President's'' fail ure to invite Rickover to' the cer emony was1 "nothing short of shocking." He described the White House explanation as a "lame ex cuse." What's Good For The Judge Is Good For The Commissioners CARTHAGE, N.C. (UPI) Su perior Court Judge H. S. Burgwyn, incensed because his courtroom was not air-conditioned, yesterday summoned members of the Board of County Coriimissioncrs for jury duly. ' "This place needs air condition ing and they ought to know it," the perspiring jurist said. "They can come and suffer the heat and noise and gnats right along with the rest of us."
