      THE ULTROOM ERROR

      by JERRY SOHL

      Smith admitted he had made an error involving a few murders—and a few thousand years. He was entitled to a sense of humor, though, even in the Ultroom!

      HB73782. Ultroom error. Tendal 13. Arvid 6. Kanad transfer out of 1609 complete, intact, but too near limit of 1,000 days. Next Kanad transfer ready. 1951. Reginald, son of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Laughton, 3495 Orland Drive, Marionville, Illinois, U. S. A. Arrive his 378th day. TB73782.

      ancy Laughton sat on the blanket she had spread on the lawn in her front yard, knitting a pair of booties for the PTA bazaar. Occasionally she glanced at her son in the play pen, who was getting his daily dose of sunshine. He was gurgling happily, examining a ball, a cheese grater and a linen baby book, all with perfunctory interest.

      When she looked up again she noticed a man walking by—except he turned up the walk and crossed the lawn to her.

      He was a little taller than her husband, had piercing blue eyes and a rather amused set to his lips.

      Hello, Nancy, he said.

      Hello, Joe, she answered. It was her brother who lived in Kankakee.

      I'm going to take the baby for a while, he said.
