THE OSILIANS

STRANGE PATTERNS APPEARING ON HIS OSCILLOGRAPH REVEAL TO JAY BARD A BRAND NEW WORLD IN "THE OSCILIANS"!

Jay Bard is interested in electronics and experiments with a home-made oscillograph. He keeps it tuned-in to his radio so that the "shadows" of the voices of celebrities, speaking or singing over the air, appear on the oscillograph as wavering green graphs, which Bard has learned to read.

One day the "shadows" do not match the voices on the radio. The oscillating green lines of the graph develop a bulge, as if something were moving through them. Using magnets, Bard discovers that he can pull the green bulge entirely off the screen-and the "shadow" lines fly off his screen.

He soon discovers that he is somehow in contact with the intelligence responsible for the strange patterns on the oscillograph. He realizes that they are not the result of any human voices or sounds, but come from somewhere else!

COSMOS

A seventeen chapter round-robin serial written by eighteen science fiction authors: Ralph Milne Farley, David H. Keller, M.D., Arthur J. Burks, Bob Olsen, Francis Flagg, John W. Campbell, Rae Winters (Raymond A. Palmer), Otis Adelbert Kline, E. Hoffman Price, Abner J. Gelula, Raymond A. Palmer, A. Merritt, J. Harvey Haggard, Edward E. Smith, Ph.D., P. Schuyler Miller, L. A. Eshbach, Eando Binder, Edmond Hamilton.

An evil hitlerish dictator of one of the planets of Alpha Centauri, unsatisfied with ruling one planet, must spread out and subjugate others. He knows none to conquer in his own system-they are all either uninhabitable or invin-cible. So he casts his evil eyes on the solar system. This dog's name incidentally is Ay-Artz.

There exist saviors on Lemnis, Ay-Artz's home planet. They are Dos-Tev, rightful heir to the throne of Lemnis who was bounced out by the rebel-lious Ay-Artz, his scientist friend and mentor Mea-Quin, and their servant-warrior-errand-boy Bullo. Hearing of Ay-Artz's evil designs they determine to warn to solarites and help defeat Ay-Artz once and for all. Their struggle to inform the various solar plan-ets' peoples of Ay-Artz's de-signs, the struggles of the people of Sol to defeat Ay-Artz and to defend their planets against him, forms the general run of the "novel's" progress. Eventually, of course, Ay-Artz is defeated-in the final in-stallment, written by old universe-wrecker Edmond Hamil-ton.
