"A reporter, no comment. Anybody else, none of his damn business. And above all, don't let anybody finagle you into making any claims about knowing the future. I thought we had this under control; now that it's out in the open, what that fool Whitburn'll do is anybody's guess." A REPORTER NO COMMENT ANYBODY ELSE NONE OF HIS DAMN BUSINESS AND ABOVE ALL DON'T LET ANYBODY FINAGLE YOU INTO MAKING ANY CLAIMS ABOUT KNOWING THE FUTURE I THOUGHT WE HAD THIS UNDER CONTROL NOW THAT IT'S OUT IN THE OPEN WHAT THAT FOOL WHITBURN'LL DO IS ANYBODY'S GUESS
 fact remains that I did. I should, of course, have been more careful, and not confused future with past events. The students didn't understand...." Whitburn half-turned, stopping short. "My God, man! You _are_ crazy!" he cried, horrified. The period-bell was ringing as he left Whitburn's office; that meant that the twenty-three students were scattering over the campus, talking like mad. He shrugged. Keeping them quiet about a thing like this wouldn't have been possible in any case. When he entered his office, Stanly Weill was waiting for him. The lawyer drew him out into the hallway quickly. "For God's sake, have you been talking to the papers?" he demanded. "After what I told you...." "No, but somebody has." He told about the call to Whitburn's office, and the latter's behavior. Weill cursed the college president bitterly. "Any time you want to get a story in the _Valley Times_, just order Frank Tighlman not to print it. Well, if you haven't talked, don't." "Suppose somebody asks me? T'S RIDICULOUS UTTERLY PREPOSTEROUS UNUSUAL I ADMIT BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT I DID I SHOULD OF COURSE HAVE BEEN MORE CAREFUL AND NOT CONFUSED FUTURE WITH PAST EVENTS THE STUDENTS DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHITBURN HALF TURNED STOPPING SHORT MY GOD MAN YOU ARE CRAZY HE CRIED HORRIFIED THE PERIOD BELL WAS RINGING AS HE LEFT WHITBURN'S OFFICE THAT MEANT THAT THE TWENTY THREE STUDENTS WERE SCATTERING OVER THE CAMPUS TALKING LIKE MAD HE SHRUGGED KEEPING THEM QUIET ABOUT A THING LIKE THIS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE IN ANY CASE WHEN HE ENTERED HIS OFFICE STANLY WEILL WAS WAITING FOR HIM THE LAWYER DREW HIM OUT INTO THE HALLWAY QUICKLY FOR GOD'S SAKE HAVE YOU BEEN TALKING TO THE PAPERS HE DEMANDED AFTER WHAT I TOLD YOU NO BUT SOMEBODY HAS HE TOED ABOUT THE CALL TO WHITBURN'S OFFICE AND THE LATTER'S BEHAVIOR WEILL CURSED THE COLLEGE PRESIDENT BITTERLY ANY TIME YOU WANT TO GET A STORY ON THE VALLEY TIMES JUST ORDER FRANK TICKMAN NOT TO PRINT IT WELL IF YOU HAVEN'T TALKED DON'T SUPPOSE SOMEBODY ASKS ME
