The racket angle was all blind

There was a wee policeman's
interest in A'hearn. What kind
of trap do you want to set for

Jigger wasn't entirely sure, but
he concocted one with practically
no hesitancy; and as it assembled
into what sounded like a plan,
he accepted it with A'hearn.

Activity,:Of
Marine Corps
lin Florida

TAMPA, Nov: l3 FNS).-On
Tuesday the United States Ma
rine Corps celebrated its l72nd
anniversary.
Marine Corps Units in Florida
today, although formidable
enough, are a far cry from the
display of strength made in the
State by the Corps in 1886.
That year the Marine Corps
took to the field to protect Flo
ridianS from the Greek and
Seminole Indians who were on
the Warpath.
The call to arms was so ur-
gent that Marine Corps Com
mandant Archibald Henderson
closed down the headquarters in
Washington and took all of his
clerks into the field. as well as
every other Marine who could
be spared from ship ..detach-
ments and Navy yards.
President Andrew Jackson
had asked the Marines to put
down the Indians, so Colonel
Henderson personally led these
Marines who constituted more
than half the strength of the
Marine Corps at that time.
After settling with the Creek
Indians just north of Florida in
Georgia, Henderson and his Ma
rineS moved into Florida in Aug.
1886, to clash with the Semin-
oleS.
While the Corps did a splen-
did job and restored order to
the state, they were unable to
defeat the Indians, who retired
to the Everglades and have new

reasons for hiring me, and Joey
has told me practically nothing
to date, even though I'm supposed
to be working for him."
A'hearn asked, what do you
expect him to do when you spring
the Munsey lie on him?"
I'm hoping that with a death
he's confessed guilt for, Joey
might spill a few secrets he's
been boarding for what I've come
to believe are some pretty des-
perate reasons. I'll tell him that
he'll mitigate his sentence if he's
of material aid in solving the
other two deaths"
A'hearn scratched his head al
most like his old self. What did
Joey bring you into the case in
the first place for?"
THAT, Cappie, is what I want
to find out. There, no doubt, hangs
tale"
A'hearn named one condition:
after you do or don't get what
ever you're after, you gotta
promise not to tip Joey that you
were framing him to get him to
blab. He's gotta believe Munsey
dead"
Poor Joey was in for a baking
lamp and leadpipe ARRAY.
You want to sweat Joey with
the victim at a psychological loss
since he's supposed to have con-
fessed to a murder, eh?"
A'hearn said stiff1y that the
third degree was uerboten, out
the window, a SANDER, like a
station house captain on the wit
ness stand in a citizens inquiry
into police brutality.
Jigger wondered how long it
would take him to reconcile him.

dollar balance that was virtually

A'hearn named a second con-
dition with a note of triumph as
he turned to leave: "There'll be
real dictaphone set-up in Joey's
cell; Jigger. just so. you won t
have too many lies on your con-
science" - -,
Jigger dignified A'hearn's de-
parture with pious Bronx cheer.
