PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JUNE 29, 1942. Chapter Ten No Picture, No Detail I IEUTENANT BACON of the Homicide Squad waa a lUS' backed, craylns veteran with shrewd gray eyet and a matter of -fact way of talking that was deceptive. "Whit else do you know about that guy?" he asked. Kent Murdock replaced the telephone. "Nothing. I've already told you. I only met him last night. "Tell me again, then," Bacon (aid. rolling the cigar between his lips with apparent relun. "He married .tit first wife." Murdock said. "Three or four years ago, but I never knew that untu yesterday. , "How did he shape up to you?' 1 "Like a rat." "He did, huh?" Bacon sucked smoke and made some signal to his blocky assistant. Sergeant Keogh, who brought out a note book. "And he was at the Losado woman s party this afternoon. and you were there, and your wife, and Dean Thorndike. and this Ward Allen and his girL Who else?" "John Nason was there," Mur dock said. Keogh was writing all this down and Bacon said: "That's the lawyer guy who used to be a purchasing agent for the Germans. Who else?" Murdock went over near the door and nicked un his camera. "Now wait a minute," Bacon said. "I told you no pictures.' Murdock opened his plate case and found a flashbulb. That s be fore you found out I could help.' "That makes no difference.' Bacon said. "I told you no pic tures and" "Okay." Murdock shrugged. "No pictures, no details." He screwed the flashbulb In the synchronized flashgun and waited, dark eyes steady, a grin tipping his meuth. Actually he did not particularly care whether he got any pictures or not. ine less pud licity the better, considering those involved and yet, it was his Job. If he did not take them now he would never have the chance; if he did. he would have them in ease they were needed. Bacon was glowering now. Tou can be made to talk." "You always say that." "I ain't kiddln' "I know you're not I can be made to talk later." Sergeant Keogh was watching them. So was the fingerprint man and police photographer, both grinning covertly. Bacon made a snorting sound. The Story " A HH nuts. One of these days I'm gonna " He choked off, turned away, turned back quick ly, pointing the stogie. "But Just one, understand?" Murdock was adjusting shutter and focus. "Over by the body," he said. "You and the Sergeant Block It off a little, will you, and try and look interested , . ." "All right " Bacon said when It was over. He was still growling, but without rancor. "Now who else was at that cocktail party?" Murdock told him. That he was here at all had been largely a matter of chance. On his way home from the Courier-Herald he bad passed within a block of police headquarters and on a hunch had stopped In to see if Bacon was on duty. A well known labor organiter had been murdered three days previous and he had wanted to know if lanything new had developed. As a result of his curiosity, he had ibeen In Bacon's office when the telephone call came. Ha put away his camera as he finished talking and took a turn about the room, which was a typical furnished-apartment lay out with a few Inexpensive re productions and tome well-worn Gold Hill, June 29 (Spl.V First lieutenant Arthur Gorham returned here by plane Saturday from Camp Williams, Utah, where he has spent the past month In a military police train ing camp.

Past Noble Grand club met June It at the Oeorge Dor man horns with Mrs. Helen Dusaaberry aa hostess Gold HiU overstuffed pieces. The finger print man was again busy with his camel's hair brushes and pow ders; so was the photographer. Throughout the building a couple of plain-clothes men were ques tioning tenants in an effort to find out who had tipped off the police. . Awaiting the arrival of the medical examiner, the body had not been touched, and Murdock circled over to it - His profession had accustomed him to the sight of death, yet he could seldom look upon it dis passionately, and there was some thing about the still figure on the floor that stirred him. Still clad in the gray - striped trousers. Perry Clarke lay flat on his back a few feet back from, and slightly to one side of the door, his feet Sointing towards it He wore a eavy silk house-Jacket and un derneath this a pearl-gray vest which had been unbuttoned. Both this and the shirt were blood-soaked and there were two or three small stains along the front of the trousers, extending to the knee. One thing which be came at once apparent after close inspection of the vest was that the position of the two tiny holes & roved that this garment had een opened after the man had been shot. "Hey, look!" Nest Door TTIE fingerprint man was stand- ing by the doorway to the inner hall, pointing to something in the wooden frame. "Here's your slug. One of 'em anyway." Murdock went over with Bacon and Keogh. About three feet from the floor and half buried in the dark wood was a bullet "Good," Bacon said. "Cut It out snd don't scratch it The other one must be in him." The fingerprint man dropped to cne knee and Just then the door opened and in walked a dapper, middle-aged man :lad in Chesterfield and black Homburg. He wore thick-lensed glasses and a mustache, and in one hand was a leather bag which he promptly dropped on a chair. "Hello," he said to the room at large. "Hello, Doc," Bacon said. "Sorry to get you out " "Hah!" said the examiner's physician. "You did me a favor." He slid out of his coat, removed the one underneath and rolled up hia sleeves. "Yes, sir, and in the nick of time. I'd Just bid four no-trump and my wife laid down her hand. You should have seen it I'd've been lucky to take six tricks . . ." Bacon and Keogh moved up at the doctor knelt beside the body. Murdock sat down again, trying to remember what Joyce had tola him about the meeting of Perry Clarke and Ward Allen the night before. Even then, he realized, she had been troubled by Allen's reaction; now with the added complication of murder Murdock was more worried about the anair than he liked to admit Perry Clarke had been In Caragua Allen had been in Caragua. , . . "Who opened the vest. Lieute nant?" The doctor had paused In hia Inspection to ask the question and there was a note of asperity In his voice. I wish I knew. Bacon said. "It was like this when you found him. huh?" Bacon nodded and looked uo as the doctor opened and a burly six-footer entered. "Yes, Malloy." "Got something I'd like to show you, the plain-clothes man said. Bacon went to the door and Murdock tagged along behind Keogh. "We ean t find anybody that called or heard the shot" Malloy said. "There's four apartments on a floor. The one next to this" he gestured toward the front of the building "is vacant But thii one I want to show you."
