didn't you see the dsfendort
drop a phite poi0dsr INTO one Of
those eocktaiIsl"
"No," said Mr.. Queen. 81 saw
nothing of the sort"
"Then on the trip from the pan
try to the living room?"
"Both Mr.. Haight's hands were
busy holding the tray. He dropped
no foreign substance of any kind
into any of the cocktails at any
time during their preparation or
while he carried the tray into the
living ROOM"
The Wrights glanced at one an
other with relief while Prosecutor
Bradford suggested, Perhaps you
turned your head for a secondl"
my eyes were on that tray Of
cocktails continuously"
"You didn't look away for even
a second, eh?"
"For even a second" said Mr..
Queen.
"Well, then, Mr.. Smith, did you
see anyone else who had the oppor-
tunity to poison one Of those cock
tails?"
81 saw no one else, but"
"In other words, Mr.. Smith,
cried Bradford, "the defendant
James Haight was not only in the
best position, but he was in the only
position, TO poison that cocktail!"
"No," said Mr.. Smith. And then
he smiled.
Prosecutor Bradford looked
blank. Then he shouted: "Ars you
aware that you just testified that
no one else entered the pantryl No
one approached the defendant while
he was carrying the cocktails into
the living room! Allow me to re-
peat a question or two. Did anyone
approach the defendant during his
walk to the living room with the
tray?"
"No," said Mr.. Queen patiently.
did someone else enter the PAN
try while the defendant was talking
to Lola Wright at the back door!"
mo"
Bradford was almost speechless.
"Well then-who but James Haight
could have poisoned one Of those
cocktails, by your own testimony"
Judge Martin was on his feet,
but before he could get the word
collection" out of his mouth, FL
lery said calmly; 81 could"
There was a wholesale gasp be-
fore him and then a stricken silence.
So he went on: "You see, il would
have been easy for me to slip from
behind the door of the hall, cross
the few feet of kitchen to the pam
try unobserved by Jim or Lola at
the back door, drop arsenic into one
Of the cocktails, return the same
way
And there was Babel al over
again while Mr.. Queen smiled be-
nignly.
Over the buzz and Judge New
holds resounding gavel, Prosecutor
Bradford beloved: well, DID
you poison that cocktail, Smith"
There were several instants Of
quiet again, during which Counsel
Martins voice was heard to say
feebly 81 object" and Mr..
Queens voice topped the objection
by declaring ION constitutional
grounds"
At that point Judge Newbold
broke his gavel in pounding for
order, and roared to the bailiff to
clear the courtroom. Then he adj
journed court for the day.

"He prepared some Manhattan

the time the defendant left them in

Mr.. Queen replied: 81 saw no

The highlight of the program was,
the dramatization of the second

Sgt. Whisonant.
The entire program was well re-

by the attention and applause re-
ceived, and it is safe to say that
more can be expected in the future,
from these versatile men of the
29th Special Service company.
