Willie had a little room fixed up in there with a lot of xaixaxx mattresses and cushions on the floor. Willie, Revis and Revco Danger, and Raymon from down the street were in there lying around and sweating. "I am glad you came," said Willie. "We are going to haf an experiment and you are welcome." I told them about the communications experiment going on in Helen's holy room. "Your Mama is a good woman," said Willie. "But she does not control her experiments." "She doesn't really think they're experiments," I said. "That is exactly what I am sayin." Willie got out a shoe box with a spoon and a hypo and some white pgsr powder. "It is hot as hell in here," said Raxaa Revco. "Yes," said Willie. "At first xxxaxxxaa i fought maybe we could just sweat to deaf, but myself, I would prefer a process not so long and painful." Willie melted the powder on the spoon, then drew it into the hypo. Revco helped Raymon strap ax down Raymon's arm and Willie put the needle in. Raymon made a face, then gave me a big grin.
