ROSSER slackened his pace so
that Parker fell in beside him.
"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

pecting a taunt to snap him into
gunplay gunplay that would be
his finish.
Condor stepped out of his of
fice. He gave Rosser a half salute.
"Rosser!"
"You wanted to see me, Con
dor?"
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."

'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

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.

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."

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

"This place needs air condition
