"W
ELL, Kelley, here's what I've so for learned about the Austin Jewel robbery."
The Inspector lit his cigor and sald "Shoot." "First of all," Fordney said, "there are four men in this small but powerful gang; Kennedy, Isham, Fitch and Sodini. One of the four actually stole the jewels while the others all played their parts in the theft.
"The leader of the gang is exceptionally tull, while the thief is unusually short. Sodini and the thief had planned un double-crossing the others if the robbery came off success- fully.
"Isham and the leader had arranged with a fence for the disposal of the loot, but at a price that was ridiculously jow considering the value of the jewels.
"The fence is your good old friend Marshofsky. Of course, at present we've actually nothing on him."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," Kelley bellowed. "It this is going to be another of those,
"Hear the rest of it," Fordney chuckled. He went on. "Kennedy and the actual thief had both insisted that the leader arrange for the getaway in an old car, but the leader persisted in his contention that a high-powered car was the thing in which to escape.
"Both the leader and the thief are cousins of Fitch. And there you are! You know who is the leader and who is the actual thief."
"What are you talking about?" exploded his Irritated friend, shaking a bit of hot clgar ash from his waistcoat. "Who was the gang leader and who the actual thief?"

Average amateur would pot yellow in top right- hand pocket and risk a difficult shot on green to follow. Newman doubled yellow_(indicated_by_dotted_ line), came down table again to leave perfect posi- tion for green, brown, and blue. It is a shot worth storing up for the future.

You will note that if Neiman had failed to double yellow he would have left it fairly safe.
Newman actually lost this frame on the black.

They each moved with their faces towards each other in a direct line, yet after walking 200 yards they were still 400 yards apart. How do you account for this?
"What can you do with this problem?” George went on. “If a person has a large box with five small boxes in it and two very small boxes in each of the small boxes, how many boxes are there in alie

It is easy to see the importance of knowing your type of imagery. if you are strongly vizual", the
casiest way for you to remember a list of things, or hotb a machine
works, is for you to see these and form images of them. On the other hand, if you are of the audi- tory type it is coziest for you to cxpress what you want to remem- ber in words and, rely on verbal memory.
If you want to remember some- thing in the morning connect it with your teacup or anything_you will be using in the morning by a visual image or by a verbal asso- clation if you are of the auditory type. And if you are of the rarer types the olfactory, gustatory or tactile type-make the association with that type of imagery.
