Fund Drive Progress The Saturday total, reported today, shows that 53% or $10,867.40 of the $20,429 goal, was collected during the first five days of the Community Fund drive. This is the best five days of collecting that the Decatur Community Fund has ever seen. However, if the fund is to reach its goal by Tuesday night, every single person who has not given yill have to dig in and shell out. The Community Fund provides one drive to collect all charitable funds in Decatur. It backs the boy scouts and girl scouts, making possible district camps, and district workers who organize more units, bringing scouting closer to every boy and girl The Community Fund provides the money for youth equipment and youth management at the Dec/tur Community Center. This is a vital local project, touching every youth of high school age. The work of the RettCross in providing blood for local 'people, in arranging for emergency furloughs for service men and women, and in disaster relief, as well as for training each of us to be prepared to handle our own emergencies, is well known. Mental Health, another agency receiving funds, is a big problem in Indiana today, and more research and clinical study is necessary so that each human being can be restored to a full and healthy life, mental as well as physical. The. Salvation Army provides the direct relief, in this community and elsewhere, that helps the unfortunate and the poor. The army maintains homes for unwed mothers, taking the mothers from one state to a home in another state; it provides havens for dope addicts and booze hounds, where they can get the medical and spiritual help they need. And the local chapter in Decatur provides help and funds for the down-and-out traveler. The U. S. O. is close to the heart of any ex-service-man, aa their facilities in this country and overseas provide much of the off-duty tension-breaking relaxation and close ties wjth American ways of doing things. All in all, the Community Fund represents your best chance to help others. The boal is still 47% away—have you given? If not, put a check in an envelope and mail it to James Basham, 527 Limberlost Trail, Decatur, Ind. Or if you are a worker, why not take advantage of the payroll deduction method? It’s the most painless way of giving. And many of the workers in Decatur are already doing a terrific job, pulling their weight and even more, in the community fund drive picture.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED The only girl Link Asbell has ever eared about is angering him. With her father dead. Sue Vincent should be grasptag the responsibility of protecting the Big Five ranch against range rivals. Instead, she has given attention to little except gata partw. As the ranch foreman. Asbell is being forced to make the decisions and face the problems alone. In going the rounds of line camps on the Big Five, Asbell found the ranch veteran. Packy Lane, dead ta his bunk ta the fireswept cabin. Link's report to Sue has angered her. because of his suggestion that Packy was murdered as a result of the old feud of Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson with Sue’s father. Jonas ta the father of one of Sue s suitort, Frank Dalmar. and co-owner with Sampson of the Double Diamond r “sbell has other reason for anger. Jonas Dalmar has made no pretense of concern over happenings to either Packy or Link and incited one of his cowboys. Sage Wingo, to attack Link. Link licked Wingo, but he is aware that Dalmar will not be discouraged by that. CHAPTER T C)AT collar turned up and a muffler about his throat to hold off the morning’s chill, Doc Jerome guided his buckboard team out of town and held to the road as far as Burro Wash, after which he cut northwest across the empty plains, aiming for the shadowed break in the solid run of the Saddleback Hills which marked the mouth of Rosebud Creek canyon. When he struck the creek flats, he found Link Asbell and Hughie Logan waiting there for him. Doc swung his team to a halt in a little grove of creek alders and tethered it He tied his professional kit bag to the saddle of the spare mount Asbell had brought along. Both Asbell and Hughie Logan had digging tools slung to their saddles, while Asbell. In a tight roll behind the cantie, also had a couple of old blankets. Doc climbed astride and they moved into the canyon. When they topped out on the rim and moved along into the higher hill country, morning sunlight fell in long, slanted lances through lanes of timber. They cleared the rise and broke out of the thinning timber into the open flat beyond and here reined up. In the bright light of morning the fire scar was even uglier than it had seemed yesterday afternoon. The acrid breath of charred embers still held, and on the burned-bare springs of the bunk, yesterday's grimmest reminder still lay. Doc Jerome swung his glance back and forth several times, then digmounted and unslung his kit bag. While Doo shucked his coat, rolled up his sleeves, opened his kit bag and knelt beside the figure they had placed on a blanket, Link Asbell and Hughie Logan picked the site for the grave. Though they labored furiously, they had their task less than half tone when Doc Jerome spread ©By Mett Stuart, 1960, Iron i

the second blanket over Packy ,< Lane and came over to the side i of the forming grave. i Doc was soberly thoughtful, i In answer to Asbell's questioning 1 glance, he nodded. “You were right all the way, j Link. Packy never felt the touch of the flames. He was dead, well , before.” , “Shot, maybe?” Asbell asked j briefly. • Doc nodded again. “Through the head. And, Judging by the destruction of bone and tissue, 1 the bullet came out of a rifle.” Hughie Logan, all eyes and ’ ears, mopped sweat from his face and looked at Asbell accusingly. 1 “Last night you didn’t say anything about Packy being shot. ; You kind of let it hang that may- ( be Packy accidentally burned to death in that cabin.” “Last night,” Asbell said, “I i didn’t know for sure just what had happened. I might have had a hunch, but I didn’t want to say , too much until I was sure.” “But we know, now!” Hughie exploded. "Somebody shot him. Who and why, Is what rd like to know.!” Still for a moment, Asbell stared out across the clearing. ’ He shrugged enigmatically. "One guess is as good as another, I expect” "Damn the guesses!” Hughie said. "You must have some ' idea?" , ' Asbell shrugged again. "May- ■ i be, maybe not Like I said —all a guess. Now let’s get this thing ! done.” He bent ‘o his shovel , I again. I When it was finished, the mori tai remains of Packy Lane, • blanket wrapped, were laid carei fully away, the grave filled and I mounded over. Remained now only the fire scar with the black- ' ened stove and iron bunk to rei mind that this had once been i I human habitation; these and the I small sprawled area of the pole i corral i By the gate post of this, Link Asbell indicated a spot about s which green flies were busy. > "Nothing attracts flies like : spilled blood, Doc. I figure it was f right here that Packy went 1 down." "Probably," Doc agreed. “The 1 killer was lying in wait, out in 1 the timber?" 9 Asbell spun up a cigarette, 3 licked it into shape. “That’s right And after he 9 dropped Packy he set out to i, cover up, to make it appear s Packy had accidentally burned to death in the cabin. That was how , I had it figured.” i Hughie Logan spoke up. "What - made you see it as something ■, more than an accident?" i Asbell indicated the spot about which the green flies buzzed. "This, for one thing. Then there t was the fact that Packy’s saddle 1 wasn’t in its usual place on the the Dodd, Mead 4 Co. novel; distributed

Bn j. y Brandl 'GOT THI MfSSAOE' — Th* Rev. Charles E. Jackson, shown in his home in Tullahoma, Tenn., said he was permitted to win $16,000 on the TV quia sjiow "The $64,000 Question,” answering questions he’d already answered beforehand, then “got the message” that it was time for him to quit. He said if you didn't take the hint, you’d be asked questions “16 professors couldn't answer.” Secretary Benson In Army Hospital WASHINGTON (UPI» — Agriculture Secretary Ezra Taft Benson, admitted to Walter Reed Army Hospital Saturday with "abdominal complaints” will remain there for an indefinite period for observation.

corral fence, or with the blanket arranged like Packy always left it. Finally, the timing was wrong, not the way Packy did things at this time of day." Hughie’s glance ran all about the clearing, his face hardening. "Me, rd sure like to come up with whoever pulled that trick. Packy Lane never did anybody a harm in his life. Why would anyone want to kill him?" “Maybe," Asbell remarked slowly, “we’ll know the why, when and if we get to know the who. Well, we’re done here, and there’s no point in hanging around." Presently they rode the creek flats to where Doc’s buckboard and team waited under the alders. Doc dismounted with his kit ha g Asbell turned the lead rope of the horse Doc had ridden over to Hughie Logan. "See you later, cowboy. Right now I got places to go and people to talk to," Hughie lingered, eyeing Asbell with some suspicion. “You wouldn’t be hunting more trouble, would you? If you are, then I better tag alone. I don’t mind you showing up with a black eye, but I’d hate to see you brought in across your saddle.” •Tm looking for advice, not trouble," Asbell assured. "You scatter along. And don’t spread the word. Whoever did this thing, let them think they got us fooled.” “Fair enough,” Hughie shrugged. “But don’t you ride around dav dreaming." Hughie departed at a jog, heading homewards. Doc, having untied his team, climbed into the buckboard. Soberly he looked at Asbell. ««T Jhk, there could be more than idle chatter in what Hughie just said.” “How’s that?" Asbell asked. Doc, thoughtfully frowning, located a pipe in his coat pocket, packed and lighted it before going on. “Last night I did some thinking. Qn the way out here this morning I did more. That ruckus in the Imperial-the more I think on it the more convinced I am that Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson started the trouble deliberately. Now, knowing for certain what happened to Packy Lane, last night’s affair gets uglier by the minute." Doc’s frown became a hard, speculative squint “With Mike Vincent gone, could it be they’re out to Etir up the old trouble, do you think?" Asbell considered his answer carefully. Finally he shrugged. "I only know that Mike’s words will always be good enough for me, Doc. You know what he used to say. They do not like us and they never will!’ ’’ (Continued Tomorrow) d by Kins Feature* Syndicate.

Will you please settle this for us? A. Once upon a time, it was the “lady" who always spoke first. But today, if they are good friends, there's nothing at all wrong with the man's speaking first. Q.

When taking a girl to a nightclub, should a man escort her first to their table before excusing himself to go to the men's room? A. Yes. It is the girl's privilege to go to the powder room first, but the man should always get his companion properly seated at their table before leaving her.
