Last week some of the mystery was cleared up. Available for the fall opening of schools was the first comprehensive text on the "applied science" of guidance (Techniques of Guidance; Harper, $3.50). Its author, Arthur E. Traxler, is a conscientious Ph.D. who for the past nine years has been associated with the Educational Records Bureau, academic efficiency experts who think every school should get itself a Guidance Officer. His book was brimful of Guidance. By internal evidence, the Guidance Officer seemed to be a half-robot, half-notetaking middleman on the faculty. His impressive task: to make "each individual understand...

As officers came up they found Nell sitting in it, fainted dead away with Sweetpea and June in her lap. All night 500 officers with bloodhounds searched the Washita River bottoms. Sometime near dawn Traxler and Tindol routed out James E. Denton, a frail middle-aged oil pumper and took him and his car.

Towards evening they pulled up on a deserted country road a few miles north-west of Boswell, Okla. and decided to wait for dark. Farmer Trimmer, a silent man, was-still at the wheel, with Pete Traxler beside him, a gun in his lap.

Traxler and Tindol, who had been living...
