THE STORY so FAR: Forced to run
from the law to save his life, Con Cam
sron Is anxious to prove his honesty.
Arrested as a murder and robbery sus-
peCt because of his association with the
RotoriouS Raniers, he was in danger OF
being hanged as "Comanche Linn" In
spite of the fact that he had recently
saved the life of the marshal, Newt
Lowe. He escaped from jail with Jeff
AIlmen and joined bud Paramore's
gang, but broke with Paramore when
Dud attempted to kidnap loves sister,
Janet. He saved Janet and later foiled
Dud's attempt to rob the bank at Tivan-
When he found JEFF shot by bud, he left
\ note telling the story. Still fugitive,
but nearer the law, Con is going with his
pal, Caramba Wear, to work for Topeka
TeniSsn. owner of the Broken Wheel,
she most powerful ranch in that part of
the country. At Caramba's suggestion
Con is calling himself Twenty john
SON." They are, meanwhile, acting as
detectives for a rancher named Wiley,
who is a member of an association or
KaniZed to break up a band of cattle
FuStlerS. Tension is a member Of the
association. So is Nevil Lowe. While
they are talking to Tension they meet
Janet Lowe, who recognizes Con but
says nothing. She calls Tension "Uncle
Peek" On the way to Tensions ranch
they are stopped by Monk Irby, who is
cut to get Con for killing a man named
Oxweld, though Con only shot oxweld in
self setense. It's Con or Irby this time,
and Con knocks him out but doesn't
kin him
Now continue with the story.

Luck-Bringing Hump

The Egyptian Pharaohs and their
weather. courtiers employed living
hunchbacks as talismans against
evil and to bring them luck, but
when a real cripple was not avail
able a reasonable facsimile seems
to have served as well, as ancient
bronze and terracotta images of him
have been unearthed at Alexandria.
No matter how crudely executed. all
have striven to portray his luck
bringing hump as realistically as
POSSIBLE.

Malaria Still Active

Every year the world pays $12,-
100000 for quinine in the effective
treatment of 47,OO0,00O cases of ma

made public, the British medical
council comments: "The common

world from malaria has had dis

trouble the other day. Some $50
Filipinos, engaged to portray in
vading Nipponese troops, were
to charge a machine gun nest

fall dead" they were told. When
the smoke cleared all $50 were
stretched corpse-like on the ground.
The scene was shot again, after the
same instructions were given. Same
result. They'd play japanese sol
diers only if they could play dead

to give in.
