10 was shrinking when he rayed me." The gnome spun around in his seat like a top. "Are you certain?" he demanded. "If he ever gets loose in smallness, there's no telling what will happen!" The words were scarcely out of his mouth when Alicia heard a familiar honk. She looked up. Down out of the sky came the wild goose with Cummings clinging to its neck. A green & red parrot was perched on his shoulder. "Give 'em the ray! Give 'em the ray!" squawked the parrot. Nearer & nearer swept the zebra-faced master of smallness. In his hand was a ray. He raised it - leveled it .... Two red arrows plunged into Alicia's sphere. It jiggled violently, & began to spin. Round & round it went until her head sang. Then with a snap the chain broke & she went hurtling away. She saw the mauve ray stab out at her little friend. "Who are you?" she screamed. At the instant that the ray struck, a dark purple arrow buried itself in his sphere. He vanished. Only his voice came floating to her. "I'm Rap."* Leering horsily, Cummings charged down upon her. Alicia passed out..... When she came to, the zebra-faced man was bending over her, weeping softly. He didn't seem very ferocious at close quarters. She sat up & patted his shoulder. ___________________________________ *Now politely referred to as "Raymond A Palmer", or more often as that @@#*#@**%)!!!
