doesn't say anything, but he acts
like he is thinking over Joe's PROPOSE

And all the time he is reaching
around under the table with one hand
trying to open the bag Junior has
left there.
"What about it?" Joe says finally.

by THIS time Dan is around the
table taking a gun from Joe's hip
pocket and another from his shoulder
holster. When he has them both
pointing at Joe he grins across the
table. ''It's all right, Uncle Clarence"
he says. "You can put away your

his gun into Dams highball glass and

Uncle Clarence, retailing at ninety

He goes on and spills all the details
= how he cases the factory for a
month, how they got it all timed to
the last second, and how they got the
getaway fixed. Dan listens and he is so
excited he makes gurgling noises.
Uncle Clarence is still white, but he
doesn't look so friendly and good

Joe is spilling enough evidence to
get himself twenty to life, but what
good is that? Any minute now he is
going to find out who Uncle Clarence
and Dan really are and he is not going
to like it a bit. The only way out of
the room is past the bar where the
mobsters are still lined up, so there
is no use in making a break for it.
The only thing Dan can think to
do is kick Uncle Clarence under the
table, which is his way of asking
Uncle Clarence if he can't figure
something. And pretty soon Uncle
Clarence signals back with swift

that word hunger"
