The Category Inventor

This is Walter O'Keefe inviting you to listen in on the night line. Tonight, live the incredible life of ages yet to come, in a time that might be a million years from now, on X minus one.

Now an incredible story of the world beyond. Countdown for blast off, X minus five, four, three, X minus one, fire. From the far horizons of the unknown, come tales of new dimensions in time and space.

These are stories of the future. Adventures in which you'll live in a million could be years on a thousand maybe worlds. The National Broadcasting Company in cooperation with Galaxy's Science Fiction Magazine presents… X-X-X-X-X, minus 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 ...Tonight, the category inventor by Arthur Selings.

Frankly, I didn't expect to have the trouble. The morning that it happened was just like any other morning. I came into the locker room and took off my coat and through the open doors I could hear the welcome sound of the boys warming up.
