exclaimed as he clicked down the
receiver. Excitedly, Police Chief
Lawton had just shouted into the
telephone. “This guy is looking for
blood—don’t take any unnecessary
risks.”
In the editorial room of the Hart-
fleld Herald, Drislane sat with his
head in his hands and mournfully
looked over his city staff—two old
men and seven girls. “Thirty years
in newspapers and this has to hap­
pen to me—a chance to make head­
line history and here I am saddled
with a bunch of sob sisters."

nised by tha reporter as she walked
through the barber shop to the beau­

Miss Hewes, upon seeing Salustri,
continued through the shop and left
by a rear exit and soon returned
with a squad of police officers.
"The reporter said that she had

waiting for the train that would
carry him to prison, Salustri out­
witted the guards, slugged the m ar­

With the news of his escape, Jerry
and Drislane knew Salustri would
be back. The Herald’s constant and

gangster, bored right into his pride.
