FRIDAY, JANUARY 17, 1941 Who Kibled Aunt Maggie - By MEDORA FIELD Chapter 48 The Shot “Gar up. I've told you not to call my name. How do we know he may not hear?” “All right, Buddy, all right. But what I can't see is what you want- ed to do the old gal in for?” “Hell, I told you she was on the way here. She had found the key ~—that rhyme. I tried to dissuade her. Tried to convince her it was just:a.crazy: riddle. But there was no stopping her. She started to scteam. Then—then I'did stop her. And when I put my ‘hands on her —there: was: nothing to do but finish the job. Ugh—” “Can't take it, can you Buddy?” taunted Spike. “If you’d a’done like I was in favor of, we'd’ve finished: the old man off: when we brought:him out here. Then when we got' the money, we'd’ve been through. And everything safe. But you wasn’t: goin’ to have nothin’ to do with murder. No, sir, old man Brannen was goin’ to be took care of. No blood om your hands, Well,” he snaried, “just look, at *em now.” “Damn you, Spike. I never meant to kill anybody. If you had done your part—” “Okay, Buddy, okay. But that don’t get us nowhere now. What the boss sent me out here to get is the ransom money. When the police shell out, I'll take the dough in and you can come on later and get your cut when you've turned the old man loose. Or you can just leave him here for all I care.” “No, you don’t, Spike Sellers. I take that. money: in myself or it stays here in. this safe. Nobody else knows the. combination.” “Reckon the boss wouldn’t have no trouble getting a good safe cracker out here,” Spike remarked confidently. Then his tone changed, as though he might be wheedling a child. “ Buddy, you'll get yours, all right. Maybe you you don’t know it, but you’re on a spot, right now. They ain’t been able to pin nothin’ on you yet, but gos can’t tell. Somebody ought to ave that there money to take care of it. The boss just—” “T’'ve got my own reasons for holding onto that money. I don’t| ¥ trust you and I don’t trust your ‘boss. Your boss has something that belongs to me. And he’s going to hand that over to me before anybody toucnes that hundred thousand.” “So that’s the way it is? Well, “ this. straight, Buddy. I’m not ere to. take no funny business. Before I leave; you are going to open that safe and hand over the money. Then you can.get on back upstairs with your cronies and the cops: When the coast is clear, T'll do my fade-out. You can come back later tonight and let out the old) man if you want to take a chance on it. Just drop him here in the yard if you are scared to take him to the highway. My ad- vice. is just to forget him.”:. “Still leaving me all the dirty work, I see.” f “Well, who messed things up? Who was it knew about this fine hide-out? Secret room. House go- in’ to be empty till summer. Everything just swellelegant. Oh, yeah? Who was it popped the old gal off? Aw, hell, let’s get goin’. Come.on now and open that safe.” This was the end. The hair lit- erally crawled on my head. Could I possibly slip around one side of the sereen as they came from the other. direction? But from which direction would they come? Could I. crawl under the cot? No, it was too low, and anyway, they would asi to hear me. What could I of Murder Again “TEN I breathed again. The ar- ument was still going on. “.. . you I wouldn't let anybody | touch that money until I’ve got} what belongs to me.” “You won't, eh. Oh yes, you will. March, Buddy—Now, now, don’t be a fool. Fol oP that gun.” “Who's being a fool? You stay here, Spike Sellers, as I told you to, until the police are out of the house. I'm going back upstairs.” One of those long, quiet mo- ments followed, punctuated by the quitk breathi of the two men on the’ other side of the screen. Then there was a sudden move- ment, a gasp’and the writhing, rasping sounds of a struggle. They were so close that I expected the screen to be knocked down any moment. Something dropped to the floor and rolled beyond the edge of the acreen, shedding an innocent little pool of light in this inferno of; darkness. Did I dare grab for it? see which one of the combatants had been shot. “All right, Buddy,” I heard Spike say hoarsely. “Didn’t rnean to do it, but you asked for it. Well, you and the old man can stay here and rot toget Tl corse back and get the dough when the place is clear.” Only a groan an- swered him.” “Where’s that damn flashlight?” Spike grunted. “Guess it broke when it fell. Ab...” A long sigh of satisfaction and a scratching sound seemed to indicate that he had found’ matches in his pocket, then above the screen was the sickly. glow of a feeble light. “Want to make you a present, Buddy,” said Spike throatily, “just im case they ever find you. Gonna let it look like suicide. Sweet: of me, ain’t it? Well, I ain’t so keen about runnin’ into the cops with the Npene gun on me at a place like this. Not under all the cir- cumstances.” Heavy breathing and fumbling sounds made it all too easy to imagine what must be tak- ing place on the other side of the screen. “All set now,” Spike said final- ly, muttering a curse as his light died out. “Last one I had. How’m I gonna find that damn trick door catch in the dark? May have to wait a while, anyway, if the c~ps are too plentiful.” Spike shuffled through the door, evidently feeling his way. I was shaking from head to foot, but I knew what I must do. I waited until he reached the steps, then I dashed around the screen with my flashlight and, averting my eyes from that figure on the flour, I grabbed up the gun and was be- hind Spike in a flash. Capture “FyANDS up,” I ordered. “I’ve got you covered.” Perhaps, I had learned that from the movies, but it must have sounded convinc- ing, for with the flashlight trained on him I could see Spike’s hands waver slowly upward, while he swore beneath his breath. Thank heaven, I was able to hold that flash fairly steady too. “All right,” I said, “go on. Open that door, but keep your hands “Hell,” he growled, “how’m I gene keep ’em up and open the loor?” Perhaps he was not dissembling, but I wasn’t trusting. “One little move the wrong way,” I warned, “and it will be good night for you.” Watching closely in order that I might note the location of the trap-door spring, as well as any ‘alse move his part, I man- aged to keep both the flash and the gun trained on him without undue wavering. A lever off .to the right apparently controlled the action of the door, for with his hands still above his head Spike reached out and grasped it. No doubt, in my wild grabbing as I fell, had touched that lever and thus closed the door behind me. trap door was opening. Now I had my greatest danger to face. Walking up the stairs behind him as I' was, it would be easy for him to turn and rush me. Or with equal facility, once he was on the landing above, he could close the door in my face and make a dash for. it: “All right,” I ordered, when 1 was halfway up the _ steps, “march.” Unconsciously 1 was handing back to him the words he had used only a few minutes be- fore in the secret room. __ It seemed to me that he hurried just a little more than was neces- sary. Perhaps it was only that I myself was pretty near the break, ing point. Anyway, I furned loose and fired a shot off to his right. Let him run now, if he chose. Let him shut the door behind him. That shot would bring others run- ning. He let out an unearthly yell as the bullet whizzed past, a yell that met and mingled with another that was also like nothing I had ever heard before a_ strange, blood-curdling, atavistie cry that could have come only from the wild heart of Africa, As my head emerged above the opening I could hear Andrew, even before I could see him. “Don’t shoot no mo’, Miss Sally!” he screamed, his voice full of sav- age exultation. “I got my razor on_ him.” Doors were opening. Feet were coming from al! directions. Rob- erts was first to reach the scene, and even in all the excitement | was struck with the look of be- wilderment on his face. But he lost no time putting handcuffs on our whimpering, cringing pris- Lueck was with me, for the wrest- | lers on the floor’ were too ab- | sorbed in their struggle to be! aware of anything else. | Nerving myself to make a dash/ for: the stairway, hoping with the! aid of the flashlight to be able} to locate the spring which would} open the trap door, I was instant- ly stopped in my tracks by the/ sound of a deafening explosion, | followed a_ horrible — por ‘With the smell of smoke an der all about me, I waited in aj vacuum of suspended animation to YANKS SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED (Hy Astmetnred: Dream) NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—Gerry Pridéy and Phil Rizzuto, the sec combination the Yan- ing up from Kan- never played a championship ond base kees are br sas City, have anything but team. on 1937 Priddy played with in the Arkansas-Missouri and Rizruto was with the team the BUC winning Bassett, Va.

With three exceptions the Saw- | yer’s Barbers and NavStas, who open the series January 28, will! have the same players used in the Civilian League last year. Oscar Capote has been added to the Barbers in place of Nene Dom- enéch, who is now residing in Mi- ami, and Leo Stanley, who man- aged the Merchants, will appear in a Sawyer uniform. On the Station ten, Julio Barcelo will take over Jones’ usual’ spot at first base. Jones will be placed elsewhere. Eddie Nelson, who switched from the Pepper’s Plumbers to the Soldier ten when he entered 'the Army last vear, will again play with his former teammates in the series. It is possible other | players will be replaced or added |to the Plumbers. Blondell Han- cock, pitcher, and Oscar Ward, pitcher-outfielder, members of jthe Peppers in the Civilian | League, are now in training camp with the National Guards at Gal- veston, Tex. Pipe-Fitters engage the Nav- Stas in the second game of the series and then take on the Hair- Cutters in the third and final con- test.

Let no one shirk his duty for the prestige of the Army is at stake. Each knows the task he must perform and that task must be fulfilled without thought lf, We have a job to do and ve're going to do it”. Such was probably the orders issued the Army cagers today in preparation for their battle to- night with the Lions Club baske- teers, defending city champions. Importance attached to this of SORRY! Yesterday's writeup of the basketball doubleheader Wed- nesday night announced that U.S. Marines had eliminated any mathematical chances of other teams and had clinched the first-half flag of the Is- land City League. The state- ment was two-thirds sorrect. The two clubs tied for sec- ond place. Lions Club and Army, cannot overtake the Leathernecks. Lions, who have only one more game in the present half, are elimin- ated entirely from the leader- ship race.. The best the Sol- diers can do is to tie the Devil Dogs. However, a vic- tery for the Marines or a loss for the Doughboys tonight will definitely establish the Leathernecks as champions of the first-half. ne game because in all probability it will decide which team shall wind-up the first-half schedule of the Island City League as run- ner-up to the pace-setting Ma- rines. Lions will be playing their final fracas of the present half and must win tonight or lose their chance of ending in second place. If the Soldiers are defeated the Civic cagers will be declared run- ners-up. However, should the Doughboys come out victorious, they could still drop their last game to the Marines Monday night and remain on the second rung. A clean sweep of the re- maining two contests for the Army five, with the Marines dropping their pair of games, will send the Soldiers into a tie for league leadership. The outcome of the contest means a lot to both clubs and fans » assured of a hard-fought bat- High School Conchs, who drib- ble against the Leathernecks in the second game tonight, cannot be counted out of the race for the coveted runner-up position. Al- though the Students’ chances are very slim, they can tie the Sol- diers by sweeping their remain- ing pair of contests, providing the arching Men split their two games.
