RUFE HAD A RADIO
OLD RUFE Appleton had a radio which, because he lived alone in an isolated farm house in the high country, was about the only company he knew during the long winter evenings. But it was enough, because Old Rufe enjoyed his solitude and it was a comfort to know that when he got tired of the radio’s clatter he could shut it off. Most always he listened to the . news broadcast, because it amused him to hear about- the problems of the outside world, problems which never bothered him one way or another.
Thus it was that one afternoon in January he heard about the

bank hold-up at Richfield, and learned that the hold-up men had been seen and recognized, but had made good their escape after killing a night watchman. The night watchman was a simple old man, about Rufe’s age, and had a wife and two kids dependent on him. Shortly after dark, Rufe heard a knock on his door. Two men were there, and they entered without being invited. Even if the radio announcer hadn’t given a description of Marty Price and Spider MaGee, Rufe would have known who his visitors were. They had shifty eyes and cold, hard faces, and the
way they looked around and kept their hands in their coat pockets and their backs to the wall was enough.
*“You live here alone?” the bigger of the two asked.
~ ‘Been alone for 40 years,” Rufe said. “Ever since Martha died. She was took with—""
“I see you got a radio,” the little man interrupted. Rufe guessed that the little man was Spider. The two men looked at each other and seemed to come to a common agreement. One of them said: :
“No use in beating around the bush, old man. Guess you know who we are. Well, our car got stuck down the road and we had to walk. Our trail’s hot. You got some place you can hide us?”
{ It wasn’t a question but a deimand. Rufe appeared to consider. | Two hours ago it had begun to Snow. It looked like a heavy fall, jand even now the tracks of the ;tWo fugitives were probably oblit- . erated However, eventually the . searchers would find the aban-

doned automobile and they’d scour the neighborhood. The old man knew that his visitors were aware of this and must, therefore, be desperate. He looked them over shrewdly. Just the type he had pictured. Pasty-faced. Flashily dressed. Low-cut shoes and thin stockings and light overcoats. *Guess there ain’t any use in me trying to kid you two jiggers,” he said,” grinning foolishly. *‘You’'re desperit. Well, I got a sap house up over the ridge. There's a stove there and mebbee——"'
. *“How far is it?” the big man snapped. ‘“Mebbe a _mile,” said Rufe. ‘**Howsumever,—"" *Shut up and get your coat and take s there. There's no time to lose.”
Without a word Rufe got into his sheepskin coat and fur cap with the earlaps and his felt boots and wool mittens. He wasn’t fool enough to think they’d let him: go, after he showed them the sap house. They knew he’d come back and wait till the police arrived and tell where they were.
He took the lantern down irom its peg, lighted it and led the way outside. The snow was coming down thick, driven slantwise by a northeast gale. Rufe led the way around the house and along the cart road that ran up to his sap house. He didn't even hurry, but even So the little man called out to him to take it easy, and he slowed down. He could hear them floundering along behind, and thought of their low cut shoes and thin stockings and light overcoats. Presently they came to an open field, and Rufe bent his head against the force of the wind. The storm was making a terible racket, but he heard cries of protest behind him, and stopped. No sense in trying to rush things. They came up to him, wheezing and puffing, shivering in the wind. Marty said: ‘“How much farther is it?” and Rufe told him they’d covered about half the distance. Without waiting for a reply he set off again, kept going for a hundred yards or more, and then suddenly he heard the
sound he’d been waiting for — a faint cry and muttered oaths and a smothered shout. One of the men had fallen and was having difficulty in getting up. Rufe didn’t stop, but swung sharply to the right, hurling the lantern from him as he did so. It struck the snow and went out. A minute later he heard the spit of an automatic, but the shots came nowhere near him. . ..
He was grinning to himself when, 20 minutes later, he came back to the house. He went into the kitchen, but didn’t light the lamp. He sat down by the window, without fear, to await the arrival of the police, thinking of the two men out in the storm with their low cut shoes and thin stockings, thinking how he'd led them in circles, knowing that they’d never be able to find their way back. He thought of the dead watchman, and told himself that when he collected the reward for the capture of the two bank robbers, the watchman’s wife and kids would probably have good use for it. .
