his stick, valuable souvenir. A man
dressed up as an Australian soldier
told him he had better go after her
and get it,
He overlook the girl in dark alley

request. while quietly slight
noise behind him binding
galaxy of stars oblivion.
The officer awoke in the hospital. All
his money. his stick and watch were
gone. He was terribly beaten.
By strange coincidence later met
another officer who fell victim to
taxicab bandit who robs his fares. Re-
turning from a farewell banquet. where
he had dined not wisely. but TOO well,
this officer accepted drink offered by
