Snooperman took a trip out west the other night and pulled a job on the Seattle College Library, reversing 24,000 books with lightning-like speed and completely baffling authorities who discovered the mischief next morning. Workers spent most of next day turning the volumes around and rearranging them in serial order.

Since Snooperman strikes in unexpected places and without warning, officials fear no precautions can stop him. It is likely that his operations will become as widespread as the fish-swallowing fad of two years ago.
