Kim • "-The story begins: "The war I came early one morning in -June of 1950, and by the time "the North Koreans occupied lour capital city, Seoul, we had - already left our university . . . 1,'In £ short time--because jun- «ior^officers died very fast in ' the ^early phase of the war • were trained and battler .tested." ' ' Wlch'ard E. Kim might have , beg" writjng of himself, for at • eighteen he, too, was in the ".War, a Korean from thp North • unlisted in the army of the Republic of Korea. However, it *is not of the battle-field he ,, writes in the martyred, but of J the- conflicts in the souls of "men. Shortly before the ROK Ar- •'my occupied the northern city 'of Pyongyang, fourteen Christian ministers in that city had been rounded up by the Com- .munists. Twelve of them had -been shot -- this much was "known by Intelligence -- but "two of them had been spared. -Why? The Communists were .not known particularly for ^their selectivity, or for their - compassion. And why just ^ theae two? That was what -Colonel Chang, chief of Army "Political Intelligence, wanted I to know. And what Captain -Lee was ordered to investigate. - Beginning with this compar- - atively simple assignment, ~ Captain Lee finds himself in- «volved in a mystery that goes " far beyond the province of . Army Intelligence--a mystery - in the religious sense of the term, having to do with man's • situation in this life and his I relation^-to^his God and his fel - lowman. To Colone| Chang, no Christiap himself! the twelve who • were murdered were martyrs • and must officially be declared 1 as such; it makes good propa- • ganda. But betraying others • tfj save their skins -"died like - dogs," as the captured Red ma- " jor who was there insists? Can « the war-weary, hounded, starv- • ing people be nourished on a I lie? Captain Lee is young 1 enough to believe that the - truth must be honored no mat- " ter what the cost until ex- - perience teaches him that Pi- " late's question is not so easily . answered. Central to the story is the "J enigmatic Mr. Shin, the older - of the two ministers who sur- - vived, who first denies he was • present at the execution and - then declares that he was, " thus delibey#tely drawing suspicion upon himself, and the wrath of the people, who cry "Judas." Why Mr. Shin does this is the core of the mystery. His is the passion in Mr. Kim's Christian novel. "A Savage Place" by Frank G. Slaughter The high cause of modern medicine becomes dramatically entangled with bitter social and personal conflicts in this novel set in a Hudson river town where the present has not yet succeeded in outrunning the pas* As a boy, Mike Constant had delivered groceries to Rynhook, the great patron castle on the hill. Now, after ten years, he was returning to New Salem as the staff surgeon at the new hospital, but the arrogant summons he received from Marcella Van Ryn, "the DUchess of Rynhook," brought him swiftly back into the past. Ten years should have been enough to sever all contact with the people he had known: the Duchess's brilliant but psychopathic son, Paul; Sandra West, whom he had loved without hope; her brother, Jason, then a dazzlingly successful actor -- now a fallen idol, come home to die. But the passing of time had only served to complicate his relations with these people, and they in turn would complicate the job he had to do at New Salem Memorial: to give the hospital the transfusion of Hippocratic ethics it needed in order to receive professional accreditation. A doctor - turned -writer, Frank G. Slaughter once again calls upon his medical experience to provide authenticity for an intense and provocative modern novel filled with intrigue, romance, and excitement. "The Ordeal of Major Grlgsby" by John Sherlock On one level this is a marvelously told tale of a manhunt in the vast jungles of Malaya -- a remarkably tense, dramatic story of love, cruelty and human endurance. On another it depicts the death battle between colonialism and Asian communism, a struggle from which emerged the world's newest nation--Malaysia -- a force already making itself felt in the lives of many Americans. Major Grigsby, a brilliant guerrilla leader now far past his prime, returns to Malaya with instructions to find and kill Chen Take, a young Chinese he trained to fight behind Japanese lines during World War II. In the three years since the end of the war Chen, utilizing techniques taught him by Grigsby, has created a communist guerrilla army and is attempting to overthrow British colonialism in the figure of General Burke-White. The British retaliate by imposing a unique social experiment -- the resettlement scheme -- which consists of building guasi-concentration camps in which propaganda techniques are used to indoctrinate half a million people against communism. As the conflict between Grigsby, Chen and General Burke-White intensifies, bare truths are exposed. Grigsby discovers his real purpose in returning to the jungle is to find his lost youth -- Chen Tak is faced with the terrible per- $bnal sacrifice required of him byrommunism, an ieology in which he has lost belief -- while Burke-White, his dream of Empire shattered, is humiii- II O' c for the finest in Dining STEAKS -- CHOPS -- SEA FOODS Fish Fry Every Friday Also Potato Pancakes Open Weekdays 8-10 p.m. -- Fri., Sat., Sun., 2-11 p.m. 1406 N.

Each believes he can win through contempt for life, but understands in the end that in relinquishing compassion he has made the most common and fatal mistake of our time. "Reuben, Reuben" by Peter DeVrles "I doggedly maintain," says Clifton Fadiman, "that the books of Peter DeVries sum up as rather more than dexterous satires on exurbanite society. There is something wrong with the world, and this man -- knows. He expresses his knowledge, not by caterwauling, but through farce, parody, language- play and a kind of commedia dell'arte manipulation of absurd characters and situations. His wacky art reflects the fact that our condition is as preposterous as it is terrifying," A world in which "nobody knows how to live" is "hilariously and classically recorded in the comic morality plays that are his novels." In this one, nobody knows how to love. "The human botch of mating," as one character calls it, is the central theme of an intimate closeup of several interlocking romances, both sacred and profane. The setting is again that swatch of eastern seaboard DeBries has made his own, but this time seen through the eyes of three aliens: a Connecticut chicken farmer helplessly bewitched by the invading New York culture; a visiting Scotch poet named Mc- Gland, whose quenchless amorous thirst is as sad as it is funny; and a handsome young Englishman named Mopworth who falls in love with the farmer's granddaughter, thus bringing the action full circle. The follies of our de-romanticized time are perhaps best satirized in the woes of poor Mopworth, whose zest for women leaves his intellectual friends no conclusion but that he must be fighting inversion. Minor characters include a doctor without a car who hitchhikes to his patients, and a man known as C.B.S., a communications tycoon who can't communicate, at least with his wife, one of McGland's mistresses. "Reuben, Reuben" is certainly the mature best of one who, ruefully as he views a world of increasing sexual isolation, in which "the Individual prospers at the expense of the Pair," always makes his point with at what you get for $S%,§5 An EGMOND solid body electric guitar, two pickups, vibrato arm, and adj. neck.

"Marooned" by Martin Caidin Here is the novel that does for the space race what Fail- Safe did for the pushbutton war. Written by one of the world's top astronautics writers, "Marooned" is not only a vividly suspenseful novel, but an accurately realistic one. Martin Caidin has used his intimate and comprehensive knowledge of America's space program to tell a dramatic story of today's astronauts and what might happen tomorrow. In a gleaming, bellshaped capsule orbiting earth in harsh vaccuum at more than 100 miles altitude, Project Mercury astronaut Richard J. Pruett is marooned in space. The failure at his retrorockets to fire and start his capsule's return to qarth has doomed the American astronaut to death by asphyxiation. He has only fortythree hours of oxygen left. During those forty-three hours an unprecedented drama unfolds, shaking all America, as two great nations -- the United States and the Soviet Union -- marshal their utmost resources in a race to attempt the all but impossible rescue of the marooned astronaut. The vivid story of this attempted rescue of a man hurtling through space at 300 miles per minute is a remarkably gripping and accurate novel of the men who have dedicated their lives and careers to mankind's exploration of the vertical frontier, with its unprecedented risks and challenges. Martin Caidin has taken no liberties with the technical facts of the American and Russian, manned space programs, which form the framework of the novel. He has used the vast knowledge and literary ability developed in writing over forty books on aviation and aerospace subjects to create "Marooned," a novel in a new dimension that offers an unforgettable reading experience. CHILDREN'S BOOKS "Quacko and the Elps" by Robert Froman Quacko is a young bottlenosed dolphin with a friendly nature and a lively curiosity. During the exciting business of growing up, it became clear to him that dolphins are the smartest of all animals. He NORCROSS Thanksgiving Cards a pretty selection ... expressing the spirit of the day BOLGER'S 1259 N. Green McHenry PHONE 385-4500 wonders how other creatures would line up in terms of intelligence. This starts him on a series of adventures -- some revealing, some dangerous, many funny; and one, the encounter with the elps, positively fascinating. Something must have gone wrong with the elp. Perhaps it had to do with his spending so rrfueh time out of the water. No doubt on dry land there is not much use for intelligence. Pondering all this, and just for fun, Quacko embarks on an experiment which leads him to the conclusion that the elp is somewhat smarter than a pelican and hot as smart as an octopus. To humans, Quacko's experiment may not seem very scientific. What is scientific is the description of his activities. Nearly everything he does is something dolphins have been observed doing. As yet, nobody knows just what dolphins think, but it may well turn out that they think a lot like Quacko! "The Day The Guinea Pig Talked" by Paul Galileo In his first book for young readers, distinguished author Paul Gallico tells the Story of a wonderful friendship between a little French girl named Cecile and her pet guinea pig, Jean-Pierre. Cecile has been saving her francs to buy a skipping rope, but the day she sees Jean- Pierre in the pet shop window her heart is lost--for Jean- Pierre is not an ordinary animal, but a very special Abyssinian guinea pig with long, dough fur the color of a rusty frying pan and golden eyes. The whole five francs go to buy--Jean-Pierre, who comes to live with Cecile at her home on the flower farm in the south of France. How a kind of magic called love makes dreams come true for Cecile and Jean-Pierre is an Affectionate and heartwarming story by a master story-teller. The charming illustrations are by French artist Jean Dulac, a neighbor of the author who lives in the same area of southern France where Cecile and Jean-Pierre live. Lots of people know nothing about music, but still do a lot of fiddling around. CHRISTMAS SCHEDULE A schedule of Christmas activities has been released by the Chamber of Commerce.
