" SYNOPSIS Private Detective Mack McGann, called to the borne <M marrying playboy Ronnie TompKlne, is told Ue boat expect* to oe murdered. Several omlnoua mddenta are recounted topped by a visit from Frazier Farwell, diac jockey, who eeetned to want to tweia warning but la put *° MA t°° inebriated to talk. I ' ' , ,\ CHAPTER THREE McGANN stepped into the hallway, closing the door to Tompkins' study behind him. The same thick carpeting yielded beneath his feet as he moved cautiously toward the front door where a great staircase curved upward into the shadows. On the wall, a small orange bulb fought a losing with the corridor’s gloom. McGann picked his way carefully. Whatever Ronnie Tompkins' extravagances, subsidizing the Edison company was not one oi them. Here, he supposed, Tompkins counter-balanced the bright study light, x Behind him, McGann heard the lock click on the study door. He paused near the front entrance. His hat and coat lay on a chair there. For a moment, he toyed With the alluring idea of picking them up and walking out. Eccentric millionaires rarely were worth the trouble they caused their employes, he reflected. For a thousand dollar retainer you drew ten thousand dollars worth of headaches. On the other hand, Ronnie Tompkins could be a highly desirable client. And thus far, certainly, McGann had not been imposed upon. He came out of his reverie, with reluctance passed up the hat and coat, and put a foot on the first heavily-carpeted step. x 1 ' There was a sudden excited whir from the corner. McGann’s gaze flicked .-ound and he laughed shortly as a towering grandfather clock struck a solemn half-hour. Automatically he checked ft with his wrist watch—6:3o P. M. - The big old house was heavy with smothering silence when the chime died away. Places like this, throwbacks to the stately days of the brownstones, always depressed McGann. Most of the homes by this time had been cut up into light-housekeeping rooms where radios blared and cabbage was -king. This one, through a combination of money and the idiosyncrasies Os its owner, had been retained in all ot its original charm. ’ / Still it weighed upon;his spirits. Now, as he stood listening, his ears became better attuned to the place. There were distant creakings, inescapable in subv.ay-iaced Manhattan. A flurry of car honkings, filtering through the thick walls, drowned what might have been a door closing. / Slowly, McGann started Up. It was typical ot wealthy and spoiled playboys like Ronnie Tompkins that he should be told to go and find Farwell. A client less well-to-do probably would have led the way personally. ! Halfway tc the second floor, there was a niche in the wall off the left-hand side of the staircase. A bronze nude reposed there, gazing languidly upward >at a tiny bunch of bronze grapes. His progress muffled, McGann rose past the Shadowy, statue,

The second-floor hallway was almost pitch dark. He allowed his fingers to trail lightly along the silky balustrade. It guided him to the clock-wise circling bannister which swooped upward to the third floor. [ •They should send a stewardess with you on this trip,” McGann muttered as he moved higher. His eyes were becoming used to the gloom now and he could see well enough. The second staircase was more utilitarian and less decorative than the one It boasted no bronze nude in a niche. McGann looked about when he achieved the third floor landing. The rear of the nouse would be to his left and the Dedroom there could be only on one side. It should be a simple matter now to locate the platter turner rendered hors de combat and discover what he knew, if anything. McGannCwas surprised to see a ri slash of light at the bottom the door to the rear bedroom . where he nad been told Frazier' ! Farwell cOuid be found. He nad expected toe place to be dark, nis quarry storing in an alcoholic coma. The surprising light led him . to eschew the knob and to rap sharply instead. The sound reverberated in the ’ close confines of the upper corridor. McGann waited. There was no answer. He placed his ear to the door but could hear nothing. ! What was It that he had been toldT “The house is yours.” He 1 turned the) knob and pushed. The • door was locked. Te keyhole was * black. Uncertainly, McGann stepped back. He peered over the failing. ■ The steps | fell away rapidly into ■ the gloom below. He thought: It’s a long way down for another key, even if I can push out the one that's already there. Was Fa •well sleeping with the light on? Or had he awakened and gone to a lath room where he could not hear McGann’s knock? The detective waited a few minutes and then again approached the door. This time he pounded heavily. “Open up,"* he called. He pounded and listened, repeated the process. At last, his ear pressed to the door, he thought he heard water running. Yes, now there was the souhd of splashing. McGann turned around and used his heel. He was finally rewarded with the soft whisper ot approaching footsteps. The lock clicked back, and the door was thrown open. A pale figure swayed in the light. The man was barefoot, and he wore only a pait of violent red-striped shorts. His smooth yellow hair was dripping, and water rah down his bare chest among the thin golden hairs. \ His voice was hoarse. “Please,” he croaked. “You don't know what that pound! ig does to me. You can come in but only if you promise not to pound on anything.” McGann stepped in. Frazier Farwell's Cyes were laced with angry red vpins. He turned abruptly and moved toward the bathroom which opened of. the far end of the room. He gestured over his shoulder. “Sit down. Make /self to home.” / McGann Ignored the offer to sit down and instead followed FfcjrtwdT

The crack was muffled but unmistakable in the silent house. The sound quivered or the neavy air, echoing faintly along the gloomy corndors. For a split-second.

He backed up and threw 173 well-knit pounds, at the door. It cracked sharply but held. McGann leaped back. Again his left shoulder?/ crashed against he weakened wood.

Ind., May’ I—(UP) —A citizens’ committee planned to meet ’wHh' a township trustee advisory committee today in an attempt to work out a school strike here in protest to the firing of a coach-teacher. Naming of the Committee was the outgrowth of a meeting last night between irate parents and Vernon township trustee Byford Lane whose firing of Bonnie L. Smith, basketball coach arid classroom \teacher here, caused t the walkout. The meeting, held in a cl|ssrbom of the McCordsville high school with four special deputies on hand to prevent any\disorder, was called after H of " the 70 “upper crude" students quit class when, they learned Smith wa* dismissed las£ Friday. / Smith, who has been l on the school staff for 22 years, said he had no idea why he was fired and was tol(| only that, he would not be rthired next year. However, Lane said Smith “found fault with everything the trustees tried to do" and was fired for “lack of cooperation.” Parents charged that the coach was fired because a nominating .committee’s, choice for /president of the Parent-Teachers’ I association her<£ was defeated. They said Lane .and the candidate favored a ; school -consolidation with nearby Fortville. Mrs. Emmons Thomas, a PTA member, said “we opposed Lane in the election on that basis and now he wants tb get even by firing Bonnie ” But Lipie said earlier he believed “the school will be better off without Smith and that he’ll be better off away from the school.” “At any rate.” Lane said. “1 don’t approve of , these student strikes, pt’s a sad situation when the students try to tell the trustees who to hire as teachers.” Thief Has Nerve Chicago — (UP) -t- A car r thief went to desperate lengths to ply his trade here.
