Excitedly, Police Chief Lawton had just shouted Into the telephone, This guy Is looking for blood don't take any unnecessary risks." In the editorial room of the Hart-fiel- d Herald, Drislane sat with his head in his hands and mournfully looked over his city staff two old men and seven girls. "Thirty years in newspapers and this has to happen to me a chance to make head-fin- e history and here I am saddled with a bunch of sob sisters. The Salustrl case had been specd tacular from the start. The big shot of the numbers racket had challenged repeatedly: There ain't nobody going to pin rap on me. This gazabos got protection ail the way to the state house and back and don't forget it. But Jerry Cowan, erstwhile star of the Herald, and Managing Editor Drislane chose to forget it to the tune of pinning a federal sentence on the numbers king. Then the slipup; while waiting for the train that would carry him to prison, Salustrl outwitted the guards, slugged the marshal and was on his way. With the news of his escape, Jerry and Drislane knew Salustrl would be back. The Heralds constant and merciless headlines had galled the gangster, bored right into his pride. the reSure, hell be back, porter told his editor, and when he does, hell head for our office first That was two years ago.

In the face of the gathering editorial clouds, the new girl bravely continued with her request and began to fumble with a gold locket which was looped around her neck. "The picture I have from Jerry she offered but got no further. The thunder broke loose and Drislane hissed, his face purple, "On a newspaper, a woman he didn't finish but resignedly collapsed in his chair. With effort he continued feebly, Miss mranUos By JOHN X.

Miss Hewes, upon seeing Salustrl, continued through the shop and left by a rear exit and soon returned with a squad of police officers.

Gleefully, he pictured himself setting up ambush for the next time the publisher came in with another girl.

Br bra CMBcUr. Here at last is an intelligently written book for adolescent boys, one of the best of its kind since the immortal Mark Twain penned that perennial favorite, Tom Sawyer. Tom Briggs is essentially a good boy, but because he takes precious time away from his daily chores to swim with his chum, Johnny Sanders, and because he dreams constantly of the day when he might be a towboat pilot on the mighty Gasconade river, he is considered lazy and shiftless by his cruel stepfather and many of the town citizens. Youll share after he Toms frustration works hard to buy himself a small boat so that he can fish to support his family, his stepwhen, father sella the boat and pockets the money. Youll share his horror when his hunting rifle goes off accidentally in the post office and he is accused by Mr. Pugh, the postmaster, of having deliberately attempted to kill him. Despite his many handicaps, Tom proves through sheer perseverance and courage that he is capable of being a towboat captain. The story carries him from the age of 12 when he is in the dream stage, through the age of 21, when he makes his first cruise as a pilot But long before the realization of his ambition, he earns the respect of his neighbors when he clears Mr. Pugh of a possible murder charge of which only Tom knows he is innocent thus proving that he holds no malice in his heart for the postmaster who would have eent Tom to a Juvenile home when he, too, was wrongly accused of a crime. The book Is a joy for those loving the great outdoors. Mr. Melton, a prominent Missouri newspaper man, knows his subject well and handles it beautifully with the result that there emerges a book full of tears and joy, tenderness and adventure.
