“Sky Patrol’s report received, considered and accepted,” Dick stated.
“Now for yours,” Larry smiled. “What has the Ground Crew done?”
“Watched, evenings, turn and turn about, till midnight,” Dick told him. “Mr. Whiteside took the day shift and came on to relieve us every midnight.”
“What progress have you made?”
“None at all!”
Sandy, responding to Larry, added:
“But you wouldn’t expect anything to happen if you’d seen all the reporters who have been ‘hanging around’ the old estate. Why, one has slept in that hangar a couple of nights.”
“No ghost with any self-respect would make a show of himself for newspaper publicity!” Dick chuckled.
“Almost all we needed to do was to watch the reporters,” Sandy said. “But they have given up, I guess. There was only one out last night, and he told me he thought the paper that ran that ‘box’ had played a trick on the others and on the readers.”
“That’s good,” Larry remarked. “Now the coast will be clear, the ghost can walk, and I will be with my trusty comrades to trip him up.”
