BY ROC PHILLIPS

Was Nelva one Of that audience,
hidden from the rest? Ray hoped
so. He hoped she was aware of
him-could see him or sense his
thoughts.
Then, slowly, another idea rose
into consciousness. This was a
stage. He was the actor. Why not
give them an act? Why not PRE-
TEND ne was in brief telepathic
contact with Nelva? 1t would pre-
sent them with confusing prob
lem-if they were able to detect
genuine telepathic communication
and follow its energy pattern back
to its source.
They might, of course, realize
at once that it was fake; but they
might also argue to themselves
that he would have no reason for
taking it, and SO puzzle over a
red herring.
He closed his eyes and rotated
his fingers on his temples to ap-
pear to be trying to contact Nelva.
He formed her name soundlessly
with his lips, slowly, several times.
He waited, building up suspense
in his hidden audience that he
was convinced must be there.
The thought struck him that
perhaps Nelva was aware of the
ruse he was going to pull and was
laughing in m RI IN mt. The
thought made him involuntarily
smile. His mind seized on the
smile as a starting cue and car
ried it on. He dropped his fingers
from his temples and assumed a
listening attitude with his head,
keeping his eyes closed. He made
himself excited, entered into the
spirit of acting even to the extent
of imagining the details of ines
sage" in his mind.
He jerked his head suddenly in
assumed bewilderment, then alb
ruptly opened his eyes, blinking
them slowly, then shaking his
head violently, as though clearing
his thoughts.
THEN he got up and went di-
L rectly to the door and let him

make sure no one was out in the
hall.
There he hesitated, Should he
rush back to the hotel, or should
he continue his tour OF; inspection?
He decided TO continue his tour:
1t would keep the Vargians and
Custodians on tenternooks wait
ing to learn what NeIva had sup
posedIy said to him. and il would
give him time to think up some
thing really good. A.. .yg4
No doubt even now the Var
gians were wondering why their
trap had failed and they hadn't
been able to trace NelVa, They
were probably calling Val Nelson
or Arthur Granger and telling
them Nelva had contacted him.
He entered another Office and
began his inspection of electrical
things with a reactionary feeling
of supreme contempt for the Var
gian girls and men there. but
gradually his mind settled down
to the problem he was now faced
with. He had, in effect. committed
himself to a whopper of lie. It
would do no good to try to back
down by telling the truth; that
he hadn't heard the slightest Of
telepathic whispers from Nelva.
His thoughts reverted to the
idea of telling Val and the others
that Nelva had contacted him and
told him to shake off everybody
before she would meet him. It
was a plausible message, and fool
proof, because he could always
come back and say he must have
been followed or observed. be-
cause she didn't show up. 80.
, He glanced at his watch and
saw it was after four. He could
leave now without creating the
suspicion that he. was foolishIy
risking suspicion. He smiled in
wardly at the complexity of things.
Everyone was lying right and left
except Joe. He'd have to prac-
tice his story on Joe in the privacy
of their hotel room. With Joe be-
lieving it, it would be that much
easier to put it across.

Chapter 10
TT WAS ten minutes after twelve
when he stopped outside the
door of the Office in the same
space as his old one had been. He
wasn't enjoying his task any
more. The insult to his lineage
still ranked. Though he tried to
blot it out of his thoughts, 1t re-
manned, conjuring up elaborate
ways of getting revenge equal TO
the enormity of the insult.
There was no sound of titterlng
or ANYTHING else from the other
side of the door. He tried IT. 1t
was locked. He grinned wlthout
mirth, realizing that the stage was
laid. This was his goal, and the
Vargians and the CustodlanS
knew it.
He used the master key and
opened the door. The office was
about the same size as his old one
and no one was there. He closed
the door and locked it on the In
sioe, then went over and sat down
in chair at a desk near where
his telephone had been.
She wasn't here, of course. He
had known she wouldn't be. 1t
wouldn't make sense if the Var
gians had her. The only thing that
made sense was that they wanted
her-for some reason-and were
using him as bait, or perhaps as
a bloodhound to track her down.
She had said in the dream that
they could trace her through him
while she was in telepathic con-
tact with him. They might be just
beyond the walls in the next room
Waiting with some device so that
if she so much as whispered a
thought to him they could pounce
on her and trace her to her hid
ing place.
There were eyes watching his
every move-had to be. They
would be intensely curious about
his every move and expression.
He was in the center of stage,
and just beyond view was the un-
seen audience.

The Army is trying out q new
way to treat perforated ulcers
Of the stomach or small intestine
without surgery.
Instead OF cutting into the alb
dornen and sewing up the hole
ir the stomach or intestine, they
are draining these organs with a
pump.
A rubber tube. attached TO q
suction pump. is inserted through
the nose into the stomach canal.
The idea is that If the walls of
the stomach or intestine are kept
decompressed or virtually COLI
lapsed for a time, nature will take
over and seal the hole.
Studied at Walter Reed.
Doctors at Walter Reed Hos
pital-one of a number of Army
now studying the method
say that the technique looks
promising.
They say their experience so
Far indicates that perforated ulcer
can be successfully treated by
