THE DRUG
Illustrated by MARTINEZ
It could be deadly. It had to be tested. But Sales wanted a new product this very minute.
Amos Parry, a regional manager for Whelan, Inc. , had come to work a few minutes early and was waiting in the lab when Frank Barnes arrived. He saw that the division's chief chemist was even more nervous than usual, so he invested a few minutes in soothing small talk before saying, "Frank, Sales is beginning to push for that new hormone."
Immediately, Barnes came unsoothed. "Bill Detrick was on the phone about it yesterday, Mr. Parry. I'm sorry I was abrupt with him."
Amos grinned. "If you were, he hasn't had a chance to mention it to me yet. But I think we'd better light a fire under the thing. We'll probably get a blast from Buffalo before long. How many men do you have on it?"
"Well, two helping with routine work, but I've done most of it myself, evenings and weekends. I didn't want anybody to know too much about it. Mr. Parry, I'm worried about it."
"Worried? How do you mean?"
"Well--let me show you the litter we've been testing it on."
The pigs were in pens outside the lab. Amos had seen figures on weight gain and general health but hadn't seen the animals for two weeks. He eyed the first bunch. "How old is that boar pig?"
"Not quite four months."
