Triple-X Magazine

# Triple-X Magazine, January 1929: Content Description

This pulp magazine issue features war stories, westerns, and adventure tales. The lead story, "Rivals of the Clouds" by Raoul Whitfield, depicts a World War pilot battling fog and enemy aircraft. Two war stories follow: Jay J. Kalez's "Tex in the Trenches," about a cowboy soldier's advance in combat, and Harold Cruickshank's "Price of a Drink," in which thirst drives a soldier on a dangerous mission. Western stories include S. Omar Barker's "Luke Forks Trouble" (a man seeks revenge and finds surprise), Guy L. Maynard's "Shorty Traps a Rustler," John Webb's "Tel Brown Cleans a Gang" (gunfights versus automatics), and Joe Ball's boxing story "The Jinx Punch." Serials continue H. Bedford-Jones's "The Tornado From Eagletail" and G.W. Barrington's "Bandits of Bald Hill." A. de Harries Smith contributes "Mystery of the Lost Tribe," exploring why an Eskimo tribe eludes Canadian Mounties. The issue also includes editor features and illustrated sections.
