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. "

"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

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. '

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.

Below on either side and be
hind lay the billowy top of the
fog, so blinding white in the sun
that it burned your eyes. 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.

Norma Nilsson Is gifted with tha phenomenon known as perfect pitch. Not only can sha

separate notes. Norma's alent, as explained by her mother. Mrs. Esther Nilsson. was discov
ered quite by accident one day when Norma was playing with her dolls. After a nota was
struck on the piano, she named it even though her back was turnedl Gifted in other ways.
Norma spoke two languages, English and Swedish, fluently at 2'i years of age; began tap
dancing at 314 and at 4 gave her first danca recital in Los Angelesl
panorama lay Kiska and on Kis
ka were the men we have cpme
miles to kill. '
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.
Climax Comes Quietly
You found your mouth full of
ashes and your hands dripping
sweat. You wondered how it
would be when it came. What
did come, came quietly. You
would not have believed it could

begin so casually.
"There's your mountains," tha
whiskery bombardier said, point
ing ahead. You had time to
note his peaceful calm.
There was Kiska, tucked un
der a hundred-acre blob of cot
ton wool cloud that filled the
volcano crater and draped itself
festively along the snow
streaked black flanks of th
mountain. The plane eased to
ward it, still climbing. I looked
at my watch. Two-forty-threa
p. m. it said.
