Then he stopped looping and went into a power dive-h-ead first straight for the pavement About six stories down, Charley saw a rope dangling In front of him a rope that hung from the cloth scaffold almost down to the street level. He grabbed for it with both hands. He might even have held onto it if it hadnt been for that pall of strong acid he'd been using. It still hung in the crook of his left arm, and in all his looping and somersaulting, centrifugal force had kept it from spilling. Now it hit on a window sill. Acid flew in every direction, but most of it landed on Charleys head. It burned like the devil. It got in his eyes and all but blinded him. Its fumes made him choke. His hands tore loose from the line, and he began falling again. This time, though, he was falling feet first. Down down he went, and while he fell he fought to clear his head. HI smarting eyes were tight shut, but he forced himself to open them. Even when he did, he coudnt see clearly, but there was a long, snaky blur swaying in front of him and he knew that must be the line he had just let go of. Wash-ingto- ...

And while the rope burned through his hands, tearing the skin from them, he got busy with his feet and wrapped two turns around his right leg. That brought him to a stop a sudden jarring stop that almost broke his leg and almost tore his arms out of their sockets. And there Charley bung, blinded and dizzy from his fall through the air. "When my eyes cleared for a moment, he says, I found myself in front of a window about half way up the side of the building. There was an Iron knob by the window the kind window cleaners use to hook their safety belts on and I reached out, caught it with two fingers and drew myself in. I rested my left foot on the sill, but my right leg was caught In the rope so tightly that I couldnt get it out.
