a. N HOUR had elapsed, and
Devereaux's vigil yards away
from the street door to Phillips
penthouse seemed time down the
drain. ~
A miscalculation, this watch, he
thought ruefully. Phillips, stune
into an action by his sudden visit
might merely have resorted to the
telephone.
Devereaux sighed and turned
the ignition key. The motor was
throbbing when the detective
jerked to sudden attention.
He saw only the rear Of the man
moving briSkly to a cab q yard
below the canopy. Devereaux
knew it to be Phillips surely. The
eccentric slant of the black HON.
burg and the failing walking stick
could be only Phillips.
Devereaux smiled his satisfac-
tion and guided the Buick in the
wake of the taxicab.
Phillips destination was the At
tic Circus, supper club with q
special appeal to the sporting fra
ternity, owned by Lippy Latimer,
bantamweight king Of the twen-
ties, now reduced to restaurant,

muscles. and weekend painting.
Like great many New York
erS, Devereaux knew Lippy, and
like many of the initiate, he also
knew and savored Lippy's cuisine.
Devereaux started into the club
doubtfully. Anonymity was i'm
possible, here where everybody
came to see every body else, and
to be seen. Anonymity was espe-
cially impossible for a gadabout
detective who'd just completed q
twenty-year midtown rowing beat
and whose face was a front-page
commonplace.
In the vestibule, the checkroom
girl smiled brilliantly. Good eve
ming, Mr.. Devereaux."
Devereaux kept his hat. The
headwaiter'S prop smile seemed
shade more genuine. ''Mr. Deve-
reaux." He bowed.
Devereaux eluded the head

moved quickly around the edge
of the club to a position as dis

he could get.

Lad Pulled Lions Tail In Zoo
And Started Big Legal Battle
BY ARTHUR spsoN


WASHINGTON R-Last August
7-year-old Richard Soucek pulled
the tail of a 35O-pound lion at the
ZOO and thereby started a COM
plicated legal battle.
The lion, a husky but lazy 3-year-
old named Vet, didn't seem TO
mind having his tail yanked. Rich
ard was unharmed. But a legal
argument began, which reached IFS
climax yesterday, over this Ques-
ton:
Did Richard pull Vets tail of
panion, Major Fielder Brown, 50,
his own free will, or did his CON-
a handyman. force him TO pull II?
Municipal Judge Andrew J. Ho-
ward heard two days Of arguments,
including testimony by Richard on
exactly how one goes about pulling
a lions tail. and yesterday reached
a decision.
He directed the jury to return
a verdict Of acquittal. The govern
ment, he said, had failed TO prove
any force was used. and that
Brown therefore could not be guilty
Of assault, as be was charged.
About the bnIy fact everyone
seemed agreed on was this: the
lions tail was pulled; no doubt
about that.
Richards version was that he
had gone to the roo with Brown.
that Brown had told him 10 pull
the lions tail. and had lifted him
oyer a rail so he could do Ii.

The familiar sounds came from

pushed up from the larynx, with
out clear articulation.
Devereaux twisted to face the
small, dapper ex-pugilist, and
was at once aware of q difference

he'd always found in Latimer's
eyes wasn't there. and Devereaux
