PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON,- TUESDAY, JULY 28, 1942. MHBRWPfg - Chapter 31 . Beyond Their Depth IT TOOK quite a while to ex . change glories with all the ae fflrriDinvini details. Joyce told every thuig except the finding of the -man in ne closet, out ueiu, although the gave all her impres sions bad very little to add. She haI nrjned the door, and some one Raeburn, probably had been waiting behind it. "He hit vou?" Joyce asked. "He threw something over my head. His coat. I imagine. He mut have hit me there!s a little bump on my head and it's sore but I didn't feel it at the time. 1 don't remember it anyway. I thought I'd Just faintedy "Stand up," Joyce ' ordered, m i i -it .:u. " Mlltl ACL K U fUUIB .'1 I "Of course I'm all right" Joyce watched her and decided she was. She was glad of this be cause she had made up her mind. It would be pretty horrid for Delia but it had to be done. She took a breath and stood up. "Come on," she said, and led the way to the other room. She - put Delia In the leather chair but Deiore sne couia spean the girl gave a quick gasp and pressed her fingers to her mouth as though to stifle it "But Joyce . . .1" Her eyes were wide and startled now. "It wasn't Raeburn! He's not the one that came last evening. It was another man. "I know." "But what does it mean? What" "Walt" Joyce made her voice calm and took out cigarettes. She was deliberately silent until Delia had a light; then she said: "You mustn't let it get you, but I think you'll have to know. There's a dead man in that closet" "Oh." Quick alarm flicked at Delia s face, but she had rebuilt her forces well and she accepted the announcement with relative calmness. "Oh," she said again, her voice remote. "And when you're ready," Joyce said, "I think you should look at him and see if he's the one." "I'm ready now." Joyce watched the girl stand on her feet "It's not a pleasant sight" "I'm all right." She lifted htr chhi and smiled sardonically. "Really. I think I've been condi tioned for most anything now," "Good girL" The Same Maa JOYCE Stepped to the closet and opened the door. She realized then, that she, too, had been con ditioned. Everything was different now. Before her nerves had been strained and raw because of her fears for Delia, and terror had struck without warning; now she was prepared. There was a Job to do and she tried to face it with . reasonable objectivity. The closet she saw, was large, with rough shelves along either side. On the left these had been filled with stacks of paper-filled manila folders. On the right there were some books and supplies a quart bottle of ink, boxes of en velopes, packages of paper. At the back of the closet and between the shelves was an old wooden filing cabinet or rather a section of one, which was perhaps three feet long and eighteen inches high. It was against this that the man sat His feet were spread, the legs forming a wide V, and although his body ssgged in the middle his head was tipped back, the nick resting against the edge of the filing cabinet so that his fare had an upward tilt It was difficult now to imagine what he had been like in life, out to Joyce it seemed KAISER EN ROUTE TO PRESENT PUN Oakland. Calif., July 2B.0P) Henry J, Kaiser, Industrialist and dam builder who became one of the nation's leading ship builders, was on his way to Washington today to present nis plan for mass production of 5.000 huge cargo planes to the senate war production commit tee. Kaiser reiterated shipyards could be converted within ten months to produce 70 ton planes, and at full production could turn out 9.000 flying boats annually. Kaiser will visit the Glenn L Martin plant in Baltimore whl:h developed the "Mars" flying boat. Gold Hill Gold Hill, July 27 (Spl.V Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Hawley of Modesto, Calif., are gursta of Mrs. Hawley's son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Jess Tresham of Galls Creek. They have also been guests of Mi Hawley's aon in Medford. Mrs. Tresham, entertained with a dinner at her home on Wednes day, In honor of her mother Friends spending the day at the Tresham home were Mrs. Em mett Sutton, Mrs. Molly Harrl son and Mrs. Tiny Cook. Cecil vn Horn, employed at Portland. -m a week-end suoat of tin parents her. He araa accompa nied by Mrs. Uona Sulllran and two daughters, of Portland, who spent Saturday and Sunday with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Carl tents. Mr. and Mrs. Art Parker are ll Inr In the home which they recently remodeled. They hi married on July 21, at Iteno. Mrs. Parker was that he had been plumplsh. not too tall, with a round fan and thin brown hair of no particular shade. Above one ear she thcught she could see a tiny Bole, al though she was not sure and would not lean down to find out: the other ' side of the face was simply one great reddish sum. . "Yes." Joyce turned, realizing she had been so intent in her own study that she had not heard Delia come up beside her. "He's the man. I'm sure of it" Joyce eased Delia away from the doorway seeing the white ness around her mouth, but not ing with relief the controlled steadiness of the brown eyes. She closed the door. "What should we do?" Delia asked. . "I think we should telephone Jack Fenner." - "Oh?" ."And I think we've got to call the police." "Joyce!" "I mean It. Look, darling." She motioned Delia back in the chair and stood in front of her, slim and straight in her checked tweed coat, her hands thrust deep in the pockets, her eyes somber in the shadow of her hat brim. "Here we are,' a couple of rankert ama teurs trying to figure out a mur der all by ourselves, and without getting involved. It doesn't make much sense, does it?" Asking Fenner "I SUPPOSE it doesn't" Delia said wearily. "Only" "I know," Joyce said, "but let's think it out We've confided in no one. and naturally no one can help us. Neither of us has the faintest idea of who killed Perry Clarke. We've decided it wasn't Ward not logically, but because we've made up our minds not to admit it. Kent might have helped us but we wouldn't tell him: your uncle Dean might have helped. We've even been naive enough to think that ve could keep on skirting the edges indefinitely without being caught at it by the police. And now we have two murders on our hands. I think we're getting beyond our depth. I'm also quite sure that you are a' lot more involved than you imagine." "Me?" ' "Why do you think Lieutenant Bacon asked vou to look at that cigarette case this morning?" Delia looked puzzled. The hair on the side opposite the part had fallen across the angle of her forehead and she shook it slightly and pushed it back. "You had a drink with Clarke. Joyce said. "You must have left your nngerprinla on tnat glass. You definitely left them on the cigarette case." Delia accepted this with resig nation. lYou knew it," she said. 'That's why you asked to see "But you see what I mean. They must know by now that you were In Clarke's apartment. You can't deny it and you'll have to tell them something. I believe you could tell the whole story except the nart about xeeinff War-J'i car without making it any worse for yourself." Delia -thought it over. She looked at Joyce, studying the lines of her face and seeing the direct and steadfast eyes. When Joyce talked like that you had to listen. Ihe quiet good sense of the arguments impressed her and she was reassured. All right Whenever you think is best." Joyce went to the desk and picked up the telephone. "1 don t say we should till the police but I think we should lie rcadv if we have to. I think we should ask Jack Fenner and do what he says. ' Te be eentlnued formerly Mrs. Clara Porter of Med ford.

Of ft cut t Bomber Raid on Kiska Through Thick Fog Is Thrill For Newsman Br Keith Wheeler (Copyright, 1942, Chicago Times, Inc.) Aboard Fortress Bomber Enroute From Kiska, June 26. Ten minutes ago our bomb bay doors opened and disgorged two tons of dynamite on the Japanese tent city of Kiska island. Nine minutes and forty-five i seconds ago the first bomb struck down . there under the mist. At two-second intervals the others followed and laced through Kiska's tundra valley with the insenate fury of TNT. The yellow painted SOO-pound packages have done such work as high explosive and flying steel can do, and by now, one supposes, the living are count ing the dead. Don't Wait To Sea We are not waiting for that roll call. For seven minutes we dived through soup so thick, our Japanese playmate in the fighter plane did not care to follow. And that ended the SO-caliber attentions with which he had favored us during the hour and 10 minutes we spent over the target. Two minutes have passed since we broke through the bot tom of the mile deep Aleutian fog and now we are boring along 10 feet off the water bound to ward our base many hundred of miles away somewhere in the Aleutians. Thus another bombing raid on Kiska comes to as successful a conclusion as any raid can hope for in this world's worst flying weather. Back in the fortress lean body the gunners are stowing their guns and making slurring re marks about the Jap and his fighter plane. The major, squadron leader and captain of this plane, has given the wheel to the second pilot with a word of caution to "keep her on the pin" and out of those grey seas ripping past below. Hitting the water at this speed would be like flying into a stone wall. Bombsight Covered The bombardier has covered that delicately deadly tool of his craft, the bombsight, and now he's loafing in his little chair splitting his attention be tween a Chocolate hnr onH a canteen of water. The radio operator is asking about the weather ahead as if he didn't know. Beside me in the glass nose section, the blond young navigator has put aside his machinegun and is busy with his charts, plotting us home along as blind and rienriiv course as any plane has flown. I am hunkered nn hocMa him between the drift indicator and the two-by-four chart table, SCribblinS this llh.Minnsl Kn. score and having time now to speculate on the odd ways of a war that brought both us and the JaDS here to disnuto a Hln.ir and useless rock that nobody but me seats wants. This one attack nf monv at tacks began to take form an hour and forty-five minutes ago when the major shoveled on the coal and heaved the big bomber up out of what had until then passea ior visioiiity. we roared into the soup in a steady grind ine climb and for vpn nHIct minutes we bored through a thick gray nothing with no top and no bottom. Then we broke through into another world of uneartniy Deauty.

Pok ing through the coup under the left wing in Justification of the navigator's mysterious Juju lay one black flank of the peak the charts call Semisopochnoi. Long ago the bombers gave it up as an impossibility and simp ly call it "that island." The soup behind was solid for a thousand miles but ahead the ! unbroken new-snow sheen of mist showed overhanging crags and valleys and streaks of blue that meant ragged spots and maybe holes to bomb through.

' We still climbed, going up where the air was thin and cold and rare as champagne. It struck you that this was as good a setting as any for sudden death. There wasn't any com fort in the thought. Still hot. in your mind was the radioed report of a Catalina flying boat that had been here two hours ahead of us. Some where back in the mist the Cata lina was limping home now with half its controls shot away, carrying two wounded men and a dead one. You didn't know who they were and you wond ered if the dead man was one of those with, whom you had shared a tent the night before. The Catalina had met a Jap fighter over Kiska. You - remembered, too, the bomber that came over like this 10 days ago. A scran of ackack got him in the bomb load and he went down like a meteor.
