This issue of the adventure pulp features articles across multiple genres. The HIGH ADVENTURE section includes "The Century's Bloodiest Manhunt" by Hendrik Potgeiter (narrative of the author's participation in an intense manhunt), "Lost Treasure of General Yamashita" by Wilson Bryan Key, Jr., and Robert Travers's "The Ten Ton Roman Candle" (about an unusual incident at sea). HUNTING pieces include Francois Sommer's "The Pro Hunters of French Africa" and Ben Berkey's "Kangaroo Kill." FISHING contributions are Dan Mannix's "Death in the Drink" and E. Ward MacCray's budget-conscious "Eat, Fish and Be Merry—On $3.50 a Day!" WESTERN content includes Wayne D. Mote's "Six Hours of Slaughter." EXPLORATION and OFF-TRAIL sections feature articles on African tribal customs, Chinese violence, and Wynant Davis Hubbard's "I Was Blood Brother to an African Chief." The issue concludes with Ralph Izzard's book-length feature, "We Tracked the Abominable Snow Man!"
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
