Markson was smart, on the other hand, so when the hungry stranger collapsed at his cabin door... SLOW BELL - - = = «= «= - = - Reese Wolfe It wasn’t Captain Hardiman’s fault that the “Sea Thrush” got caught at Bergen in the spring of ’40, just as the Nazis decided to stab Norway in the back. All he wanted was to unload his ship and get out of there—but if he ceuld gum the works for the Germans in the getting, that was all right too. He had his own ideas about how “neutrals” ought to behave. . -.- AND SO WILL THEY (verse) - Florence Burrill Jacobs They took, to conquer a savage sod, only an axe and their faith in God. BREAD ON THE WATER - - - - «= Charles T. S. Gladden “Pilots, man your planes!” roared the bull-horn, and seconds later Ensign Jackson was winging with his squadron from the ‘“Eagle’s” flight deck. In the hours that followed he got himself five Japs, but that didn’t make him nearly as happy as the fight he won against himself before his wheels touched the carrier once again. CAPTAIN OF THE COWS - - - = = (an off-the-trail story) - - - »- = = Fred D. McHugh Mr. Alfred Twiggs was puzzled. He knew that today, of course, he was Twiggs, but tomorrow he would be Gaston Durot, and the following day Twiggs again. It had been that way ever since ‘18 and it was all most confusing. Particularly to Colonel-General Eisenmund of the Nazi army. THE SWORD OF QUALOON (conclusion) - - Barre Lyndon To the deserted city of Suakin go el-Cunningham and Kamil Bey, for they know that there, as Sarie dances in the flames before the frenzied Yezidee dervishes and the followers of the Prophet, lies the fate and future of the Middle East for months to come.
