CLASSIFIED CORPSE

Somewhere in the city a man sat quietly reading the classified section of the evening paper--unaware that he was reading his own obituary:

IT'S YOUR MOVE, MR. BURKE
THERE'LL BE A MURDER AT 11:40 TONIGHT.
---MUM


The clock on the wall said 11:39. The man yawned and put the paper down. Sixty seconds later he was dead.

No one knew who the next victim would be . . . and the suspense was killing.
