just sliding around the east curve on
two wheels when his passenger opened
his eyes A part of the race track
lodged in one of the optics and the re-

the mistake of opening his mouth.
The next second he was. chewing an
ounce or so of fine dirt.
Then Bill showed that he had just
been tuning up. He stepped on the
tail of the blue monster and the car
went down the north straightaway
like grea Sed radium. They careened
around the curve, shot out on another
straightaway. Bill was grinning like
a demon suddenly gone crazy. He be-
gan playing with the monster racer
like boy plays with new toy wag-

died the wheel. The reporter slid
down into the seat and shut his eyes.
He doesn't know how the car got
around the last curve. He opened his
eyes weakly and pointed to the grand
stand. Bill shut off the power. Twas
