ABOARD PLANE OVER THE BAHAMAS, Oct. 25--Rumin Coak, hollowchested, sunken-eyed, eight-feet zombie from the mystic voodooland of Haiti, has agreed to replace Hu Flung Hucy ocC as CRIMSON prognosticator. He is already flying north with us, alongside this DC-4 clipper.

(Associated Press reported that the plane was due in Idlewild Airport, New York City, at 10:35 a.m. today.)

Coak, who speaks only a bastard calypso, has predicted mango and artichoke plagues with 94 percent accuracy since he was burned for wizardry in 1874.
