is being held until he finds the right solitary confinement

locked him up for a crime he didn't commit. Memín is
noticed and taken to the warden, and the warden gets ready
to whip Memín. Memín jumps out the window and hides on the
school grounds. He hears two women talking about a ghost
sighting around the school, and with a sheet and some
stilts he scares the guards enough to make his escape.
Meanwhile Elisa, the nurse who knows Carlos is innocent,
visits Carlos's mother at the Red Cross hospital and brings
her up to date on her son's situation. Carlos's mother
brings up the fact that Carlos's father is rich and
powerful. Since he has never taken the trouble to even ask
about his son, she doesn't want to go to him for help. --

fly to Geneva to protect the professor. The spies capture
the professor, whose invention is the perfection of a
powerful weapon. Tintin and Haddock proceed with the chase
and rescue. Although Calculus thinks the plans for the
weapon are in his umbrella, which Snowy has been keeping

home. -- Genres: Spy, adventure story. -- Call no.:

Superman who can't believe what has happened, and then is

something..."). It was a dream. He thinks about his dream
as he goes about handling other things noting how the dream
isn't too far-fetched. "The two super-powers possess
nuclear arsenals big enough to blow up the world a few
thousand times over! Mankind has the technical know-how to
build these weapons--but do they have the maturity to be
trusted with them? They're almost child-like in their
comparison of weapons...each trying to outdo the other with

Schwartz. 8 p. in Superman, no. 408 (June 1985) -- Summary
(by Mary Walker): Superman finds a large intergenerational
ship with a war raging on board most of the vessel while
the control center seems at peace. He finds that the
navigational caste has no idea of what is going on in the
rest of the ship and little contact except in emergencies.
Superman then goes to the main areas of the ship to stop
the war. The combatants stop long enough to explain that
they have "divided into nations according to our various
races and religions. Differences inevitably lead to
conflict!" and then resume their fighting. He wishes they
could be persuaded to work together as they did in building
the ship in the first place--that thought gives him an
idea. He sends the ship to a suitable, uninhabited planet
and they disembark taking their personal belongings and the
useful machinery but leaving the weapons behind. A pleased
Superman looks on at the aliens who have put violence and
hate aside to make a new civilization. -- Call no.:
