he claimed diplomatic immunity from fines but a hurried search of the statutes revealed this immunity applies only to recognized diplomats of foreign actions. With his usual good graoe, Jesse paid the ten cent fine due. However, because of the tremendous job he has done representing the best intrest of Decatur on th* West Coast, we feel he should b* r*> imbursed. . o Decatur baa always enjoyed friendly relations with its family of local industries. In the beginning the friendship was on a hit or miss basis and at times the spirit of cooperation was better than at others. The naming of two new men as heads of public relations job* in the two largest industries in the city bring attention to the importance business places -n n friendship. I* C. Swager has recently been appointed manager of employee and community relations for the general purposes motor division of the General Electric company. Dr. J. L. ‘‘Jake” krider, formerly of Decatur, has been made vicepresident ia charge of public relations for the Central Soya Company. Both are attempting to go more than half way in explaining their problems and contributing to the general welfare of the communities they serve. The Decatur Chamber of Commerce, the city administration and other civic groups should continue to meet the challenge of friendship, working towards a better understanding. The community and industry will benefit to the extent of the effort made. Our smaller industries deserve the same consideration. We will grow together happily and successfully. ’ * »■

Associated Churches To Form Mass Choir In City

Leland Neuen Decatur Associated Churches’ massed choir will begin its rehearsals Thursday evening, November 29, and will have several rehearsals at the First Methodist church during the winter months. The following joint rehearsals will be announced later but is tentatively planned for one each month. The one hour concert is planned for late spring and will consist of a well balanced selection of church choir music. The planning group, directed by Leland Neuen, held several meetings during the early fall week?. It was at these meetings that the entire program and its purpose was planned Associated Churches, for the past few years, has seen a need to stimulate renewed interest in church choirs, a definite supporting factor to a well rounded church service and also an avenue for helpful service through musical talents. ... _ The group chose Neuen, director of the First Methodist church choir for nearly three years, to direct the rehearsals and the spring concert and appointed Mrs. Edgar Gerber as the accompanist. A committee was elected as follows: Norman Guard, president; Mrs. J. Clark Mayclin, vice president; Mrs. Walter J. Krick, secretary, and Mrs. Stuart Bright-

—— CHAPTER U *| HERE seemed to be two doors 1 into Anita's apartment The one in the end of the hall appeared to be the main one; it had a dainty brass knocker on IL The door in the side wall had the modest air of a service entrance. It most likely opened into the kitchen. I listened at it first, then 1 moved past it to the other one and put my ear to the panel beside the brass knocker. Again I listened for the sound of a window pane being broken, the window being raised, footsteps inside . . . some sign that Steve and I would soon be reunitea. But either the door was too thick or Steve was in trouble. 1 was beginning to wonder how much longer I should wait for him. Then I heard a sound, but it hadn’t come from behind Anita's door. it had come from behind ma I started to turn toward it, and then was a sudden rush of motion. I flung back my right hand. It hit something . . . and something Mt me, a walloping blow on the fade of my head . . . Before I knew anything else, I knew that Steve was with me. I could hear his voice. At first it was far away, very far away, then it came closer and closer. That made me feel some better. When I opened my eyes and saw Steve’s face near mine, felt his arms around me, the dimness of my view toward life in Greenwich Village’s Rhinebeck Place began to lessen. ~ *1 think I can stand up,** I said. “Take your time." "I can manage . . ." With Steve’s help, I got to my feet. My surroundings began to register oa mo. We were in a living room. On the table a lamp was burning. "Steve!" I said, “the light! Someone wifi see ...” “Isa aS right. There’s only a akyHgtit in this room. The window I came through is in the bedroom. Connie, what made you pans outt" “Pass outt Ton think I fainted V “WeD . . .- “Steve, somebody knocked me out!" I felt my head; a lump was in its ascendency. “I got eaadbagged!" "Who . . • “I don’t know. I didn’t see him, I Just felt him. He came up behind jae fa the hall.” "He was waiting there in the haUT" | “No, there was no one there." I “Wait."

Pickup Truck, Auto Damaged In Wreck A pickup truck and an automobile were damaged in an accident Friday at 3:50 p. m. on U. S. highway 224 about a half mile west bt Decatur. The truck was operated by Henry Moser, 30, of Ohio City, 0., route two, and the car was driven by Forest S. Walters, 58, of Decatur route five. Both vehicles were going east in a string of traffic. The car slowed for the traffic ahead and Moser was unable to stop, crashing into the rear of the car. Damage was estimated at SIOO to each vehicle.

Someone could 1 have got through it out into the » hall He must have heard me j climbing the fence or breaking in . the window." » “Yes, he must have been in i here. Jack Walston? Wendell s Kipp?’’ “You think it was a man who [ hit you?” “I don’t know. When I heard . the sound I swung out my arm . backwards, like this ..." I > showed Steve how I had swung . out my arm. “And then . . t ± stopped, staring at my right i hand. On my glove was a smear : of vivid orange lipstick. I looked at Steve. "It was a woman,” I said. “I i hit her in the face.” "Dottie Harris?" “Maybe, but 1 don’t think so. I She’s so short I have the feeling it -was someone taller." “Someone else," Steve said slowly. "Dottie Harris, Jack Walston, Wendell Kipp. And now still another person. What is it that’s so damned fascinating about this apartment?” We looked around. The living room took up most of the apartment It was a large, rather narrow room. The long side wall that held the door to the corridor was lined with waist-high book shelves, decorated with a series of camera studies of New York City. The opposite end was broken by doors into two bedrooms, one into the kitchen. Between the two bedroom doors was a long, lush modem couch, flanked by modern end tables. Still examining the rtom, I sat on the edge of the couch; I needed a little more rest. The end wall to my right was centered by a combination desk and table. To its right was an easy chair, beside it a telephone oa a low circular tabla The wall at the other end was filled mostly with the giant-sized cabinet of a 'radiophonograph. On each side ot it was a straight-backed, matching chair. All in all, it was a very pleasant place for a bachelor girl to liva I looked at Steve and found him staring at the end table at the right of the Cotich. 1 stared at it, too. There was a crystal ash tray on it, a cigarette box, a lighter, and that was all . . . nothing really to stare at I looked back at Steva Now his attention was focused on the couch’s other end table. It held a lamp, a squat cylinder of pottery with a square wooden basa There was an ash tray, too, and an aluminum dish filled with books of "Connie,” Steve said, ’‘wouldn't

i you mink tnere’d be a lamp on that table, too?" s "Well, yes," I said. "I guess so. I It needs a lamp." Steve closed la on the table, i bent over it. “Look," he said, "there was a lamp on it." I looked and I saw the clear I shining circle on the table top; the rest of the table’s surface i was covered with a film of dust. “That’s right. There was a [ lamp." He touched the clean circle, : then examined his fingers. “No dust there at alt The lamp’s been taken away lately. Maybe even by the person who knocked you out." "But why? Why would anyone want to steal a lamp?" “Maybe," Steve said, “she didn’t want the lamp. Maybe she wanted something that was inside it And if she heard me, she wouldn’t have had time to get whatever it is out of the lamp. So she took the whole thing. Ripped out the cord and ran." Steve moved to the other table. “Would you say it’s a good bet that the lamps were a pair?" “Possibly. You can see that the bases were the same size." Steve removed the shade. It was the kind of lamp where the cord is attached to the bulb socket. He picked it up, tried to unscrew the wooden base from the pottery urn. He succeeded. He lifted the urn off its base. In the center of the base was a brass spindle. On the spindle were one . . . two, three reels, about the size of home movie film. Steve slipped one at the reels off the spindle, unwound about a foot of it. I asked, “Is it a movie Mm?" ■No.” “What is it then?" "Recording tape." “Recording tape ... could that be what everybody was looking for?” “It must have been. And there probably was more of it in that other lamp. We didn’t give whoever was in here time enough to get at this one." '•‘Steve, I’m dying to know what’s on that tape." “1 can hardly wait myself." “There must be a recorder someplace in the apartment, i Let’s look around.” “No, I’M pick one up at the office and we can hear it.at home. I wouldn’t say it was very safe around here, Connie.” I felt the lump on my head.
