HARTFORD, Conn. — (UPI) — Maurice McGovern, 22, an inmate j at the Hartford County Jai 1, ; wanted a transfer to omre per- i manent quarters at Wethersfield i State Prison, where he figured I he “could settle down, learn a trade and get straightened out.” ; So McGovern joined in an at- j tempted break from the jail, was j recaptured and got his wish.

CHAPTER 34 “I n, JEDGE!” Tracey Hamlin *1 was not the nineteen-year-old who had enthusiastically volunteered to fight. Now he was an older man who had. passed through fire and had been hardened as steel is tempered. “We been followin’ ya* quite a spell. We knowed ya’ was with Drummond an’ we aimed to ketch UA?* “Where did you find the MBh you brought with you?” CapteJh Colin Campbell asked, disbelieving. ? - “Back thar,“ Tracey waved his hand in the general direction Os the Union lines. "They were prisoners ?” , M “They was in a kind of sooty little wire pen,” said Watt Sackett. L* "You got them out?" CoRB knew he should be upbraldiht these two for insubordination hut it was too late for that now. BE didn’t have the heart "Stampeded the bosses through the guards an'—" Watt shrugged. "You didn’t come any too soon,” Colin grinned at them. ‘■We heerd the fightih* an’ We been watchin* the Yanks half k day. Couldn’t do much about It ’cause we didn’t have much to do with. But we knowed they was wearin* ya’ down on account of the shootin’. We flggered that sooner or later they'd toss moat ever’body in to wipe you out When they did—’’ Watt shrugged again. Colin understood. Confident - Os victory, certainly the Yanks who remained to mop up had not been expecting an attack from the rear. Once they launched their final attack and threw hi all their reserves, the Rebs had little trouble overwhelming the Union guard and capturing arms for themselves. Attacked from the rear by a foe in front of them, the Yanks had panicked. “We’d of been back sooner," Tracey explained, “ 'cept they kilt Ling. We done our best to fetch him along, but he couldn’t make it It provoked us.” - Remembering the terrified pris* oners, Colin said dryly, "Yes, it must have. 1 heard about What happened from a captured Yarik —about Ling, I mean, and hoW he was already dead when you went back for him." He looked at the ground and bitterness filled his heart “Do you know where he was burled?’’ he asked. “We buried him," Tracey said shortly. “Whar we goin* from here?” “I don’t know.” For the first time, it occurred to Colin that he didn’t know. Their only orders had been to hold on long enough to give General Drummond a twenty-four hour start, and they had obeyed those orders. They had no more orders, perhaps because they had not been expected to survive the de-

FT. RILEY, Kan. — (UPI) — A 30-year Army career that began when Ft. Riley was the Cavalry capital of U.S. military forces ended recently for Master Sgt. Nathan B. Belgrade. Old friends, including Gambler and Chief, the only horses left from the days of mounted troops here, were on hand to say goodbye to the veteran soldier. Gambler and Chief, each more

| laying action, but more probably because Drummond, too, knew this was the end. Colin made a sudden decision. 'Tm going home,” he said. “Us, too?” Tracey asked. “You, too.” ' y '■ The eyes of both men revealed their excitement “Sounds good, J edge,” said Traopy, Colin saw,his Brother Macklyn ahead and left the inen to walk slowly forwarji to yoih him. Macklyn was as lean as a greyhound. His hair and beard were grey, and even his bushy brows were flecked with grey. His tattered Uniform was patched with bits Os blanket and .tent cloth, and his trousers showed a wide streak of Yankee blue that must have been given to him in a prisoner’s camp. But on this bloody hill, with only the remnants of a once-mighty army around him, he remained the general. "Macklyn!” Macklyn turned and stared with a trace of the old haughtiness, unrecognizing. "It’s been a long war, Macklyn. It’s brought me all the way from Hobbs Creek to —I don't even know the name of this hill.” “Colin!” Heedless of the soldiers who stopped to gape, Macklyn stepped forward to embrace his brother. Then he backed two steps and there was only delight in his eyes. "Colin! They told me you’d been killed!” "I’m one of the lucky ones.” One of the men who had arrived with Macklyn approached and Macklyn introduced him. “Colonel Bascomb, my brother Cohn.” Bascomb, in tatters like all the rest, shook hands and went on to superintend some men who were digging graves. Cohn followed with his eyes. "You’re all officers?” “Yes. We were confined in an officers’ compound, and nobody could have stampeded It more effectively or led us out more surely than the two men who rescued : doing.” "Two of my Hobbs Creek recruits,” Colin said proudly. *1 told you long ago that they would be among our best fighters, but would never be good soldiers.” ‘T made my mistakes, Colin." "And so did L Befriending the Dares, for example." ’That had nothing to do with Tom’s conduct,” Macklyn said. “I wander what happened to him?” "A captured Yankee officer told me he was getting richer every day supplying the Union "Did he knew as Tom’s daughter?” Macklyn Said hesitantly, "She —she was the officer’s wife.” Colin said without feeling, "The

than 25 years old, were brought from their retirement pastures to march in review for Belgrade, together with other units from Ft. Riley. .About 90 per cent of all forest fires in the U. S. are caused by people, says the National Geograpric Society, and nearly a third are started deliberately.

fortunes of war, and I wish him the joy of her. What follows this?” “You have no orders?" "Only to hold this position twenty-four hours. We did that.” "What do you think?” •‘That we may as well go home.” Macklyn said quietly, *T agree.” "I expect you’re ranking officer here,” C< Un pointed out. ".Such a decision on your part may lead tOrijnpleasantnesß.” Macklyn shrugged. "Why pretenjl ? Thh war’s over and we have lost. Lee may hold for days or, at the most, weeks. All of us can send him word. Should he care to hive us report for active duty, vghich I question, he can notify US. At any rate, I assume complete responsibility.” "All right, Macklyn,” Colin Mid quietly. The graves had been dug, and the mounds of fresh earth on either side looked oddly clean and freM. Macklyn read from a Bible belonging to another officer, and all stood with bared heads as their dead were lowered to rest. Helping their wounded and carrying those who were incapacitated, the men who had been left to make a suicide stand and their rescuers walked away from the war. • * • Three days later Colin, Macklyn, Watt and Tracey were in Denbury. At first glance the town seemed unchanged—the same buildings, the same trees, and even the same weary dogs in the same shady spots. But it was changed, Colin noted dismally. He was most disheartened over the courthouse. He tried to remember when it had been such a grand edifice. Now it looked grubby and small, and there was about it an air of distinct decay. He was glad when they had passed through Denbury and started up the road beside the Connicon. As they neared Thornhill, and the view of-the mountains, Cohn quickened his step. It was here that he had always made Dusty walk when going home from Denbtlry court so that he might lift his eyes to the mountains. , Colin said nothing, and, sensing hl# mood, neither Watt nor Tracey spoke. Macklyn was intent and eager, and in spite of himself, Colin felt a rising excitement too. Ahead lay Quail Wings, beloved home of his boyhood and young manhood. War could not completely shatter Colin’s memory of his home. ... >' Celia is beginning to believe AM the moment be can take Ann Stewart to his arms may never coma.

Files Bulging With Data After Threats No Overt Attempts On Life Os Ike By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) — Backstairs at the White House: The files of the United States Secret Service bulge with information, descriptions and photographs of men and women who have made known their desire or intention to kill President Eisenhower. However, there hasn't been an overt attempt on Eisenhower’s life during his six years under the protection of the federal agents. Much of the credit for such a clean record must go to the taut protective techniques of the Secret Service, itself. But the absence of truly serious assassins is due in part to the very nature of the President. Apparently, he has not engendered the hatred or been in office during such highly emotional times as his two immediate predecessors, Presidents Roose-

It still puzzles veteran Secret Service men—why would three tough convicts add to their troubles by writing death letters to a president? That happened in this administration. Three inmates of an Oklahoma reformatory fired letters at the White House, blaming the President for their plight 1 and promising to mow him down once they got their freedom. Needless to say, they didn’t get it. WO [ { i x x * OBmSb ; ! I w ORANGE BOWL QUEEN—Nanita Green, 23, Rockwood, Tenn., poses with her crown aa “Orange Bowl” queen in Miami, Fla.
