From his pocket he drew piece of stiff wire
and a quantity of strong cord. both obtained
at the Sweet Shop. Resting his f1aShlight on
a high stool that the janitor used, he bent the
wire into lCup. Then he TIED one end OF
the cord to the wire.
This done he approached the switch. The
handle was now in the down position, as the
lights were off. Ted did not turn them on. but
he moved them until the handle was almost
verticle. Then he slipped the loop OF wire
over the handle.
under a pipe near the floor. Almost directly
overhead pipe ran up to the gymnasium,
and there was small open space around the
pipe Ted found a ladder, climbed 1t. and
after using length of wire as a needle"
managed to pass the cord up through the hole
to the floor of the gymnasium.
Then he hurried up the stairs to the basket
bail floor He found that his bit of cord came
up through the floor almost directly back of
the North basket. and behind the screen that
protected the windows and the radiators IL
was the work of q moment only to secure the
end of the cord.
low his apparatus was ready. He gave
the cord a strong steady pull. For the
fraction of a second it resisted. Then he felt
something give, and the cord pulled freely. He
was able to haul it up through the hole. wire
loop and ALL and stow it quickly into his
pocket.
That's the way the lights turned Off"
he said to himself gleefully "Only tonight the
wire pulled off the cord"
Just to make sure, he ran back down to
the furnace room and examined the switch
Sure enough, it was in the down position. The
cord passing down from the erect handle under
the pipe. exerted steady downward pull
when handled from the gymnasium above.
and dragged the switch handle downward Once
the handle pointed downward the ring slipped
off, and then could be drawn up into the
gymnas sium by the cord. And the whole thing
could be done in only few seconds.
Ted was satisfied. He knew now how the
lights were managed. He went home to bed,
bilsily making plans for trapping the person
who was out to get Tom BronSki.
h lORTH was meeting South in the North
Y gym on the following Friday night. and
Ted planned to trap the culprit then. Yet the
excitement of the approaching game con-
tagiouS, and he almost as worked up as
any other North fan when the crowd gathered
in the gymnasium for the battle.
North was determined to win. to keep her
record spotless and to make up for the loss
to South in foot ball. But South was always
hard to beat and tonight was anxious for
q victory North
The first half was one of those basket ball
games which keep the spectators In one con-
stant roar of excitement Play was fast and
furious with first one team and then the
other going into the lead. When the whistle

by q margin of only one point. The score
was 1915.
Ted Harker had not seen the final plays Of
the first half. A few minutes before he had
quietly slipped out of the gym and down to
the furnace room. He felt that between
the halves ne would catch his quarry. He
knew that another lights out" stunt
scheduled, because before the game he had
examined the pipe leading up to the gymna-
sum- and had found what he had expected

in position. fastened to the screen at the
end of the gymnasium, and bearing a loop of
wire at the other end But the loop of wire
was now hidden behind the pipe in the dimly
lit basement. The plotter whoever he was had
not yet slipped it the switch handle.
TED figured that would be done between the
halves Then the device would be used as
soon as possible in the second half so that
the risk of detection would be small But if Ted
had his way the plans would not work out
this time!
He found a place of concealment in the
furnace room and waited. He heard the
whistle that ended the first half. and then
the players came Gathering down the stairs.
First came the visiting team. They passed
the furnace room door without looking in

door to tell Joe to bank the fire. 1t too

The coach disappeared Then Ted, watch

you we're ahead. but only by one point
Good work. boy" said Joe, and Ben went
out toward the locker room
Then Jack Daniels entered and crossed the
room Hello joe he said. How things

a shOeString. A moment later he Strengthened
up. Suddenly when Joe not looking, one
hand shot up and rested for moment on the
electric light switch Then Jack turned and
walked toward the door
TED leaped out. He caught Jack by the
shoulders. $50 it's you!'' he roared- Il
thought so, you rat!"
Jacks face had gone white when he saw Ted.
Now it flushed with fury. Without word he
swung viciously at Teds head.
But Ted had been expecting that He lodged

SU GENESIS Y
CARACTERISTICAS

La intervention de los parti-
dos republicanos de oposici6n
en- ell movimiento revoluciona-
rio de octubre fue puramente
plat0nica. Los cuatro grupos re-
publicanos dirigidos por Azana
%(entonces en- Barcelona), Mar
tinez Barrio, Sanchez Roman y
Miguel Maura, Sc contentaron
con publican notas en- las cua-
les cortaban toda su relaci6n
con ell regimen manteniendo
que habia caido en- las manos de
la derecha y especialmente de
Acci6n Popular. Estos son pc
quencs partidos, representa-
a secciones de Ia pequena
burguesia. En- ultimo analisis,
TODD 10 que Sc proponian hacer
era retirarse del Parlamento.
Cuando Sc retiraron en- la aper-
tura de las Cortes, en- noviem-
bre 5, fue meramente en- protes
ia contra la unusual acci6n del
gobierno extendiendo la Revolt
cion, a los discursos parlamen-
tarios. Pero 81 ell Presidente de
la Republica los hubiera invita-
do ent0nces a formar gobierno
para liquidar la revolution Y
preparar nuevas elecciones, no
hubiese parecido extrano que
o cast todos, lutheran con
testado en- affirmative; por 10
que a ellos concernfa, en- csc ca
so, ell presente regimen no ha-
bria tenido que tratar con NADIA
mas serio que I'm desVanecido
