"Astro is as much an artist on that power deck as Liddy Tamal doing Juliet in the stereos." "Yes," mused Strong. "And Corbett is the same on the control deck. Good instinctive intelligence. That boy soaks up knowledge like a sponge." "Facile mind quick to grasp the essentials." She smiled again.
"And look here if they get the upper hand, it's the great capitalists, the great property holders, the great landowners like you and me, Corbett, who'll be the first to suffer.... Why, we're suffering as it is, here in Wyck, with just the little that fellow Grainger can do. The time'll come, mark my words, when we shan't be able to get a single labourer to work for us for a fair wage.
From one side of the circular dais, Tom saw Major Connel enter the room. He snapped to attention and saluted smartly. "Morning, Corbett," said Connel, returning Tom's salute. "Getting into the swing of the operation?" "Yes, sir," said Tom. "I've handled about twenty approaches since Captain Stefens left me alone, and about fifty departures."

Standing before the aide's desk, they could see the commander's face come into focus on the small teleceiver screen, and they were alarmed to see Governor Hardy seated beside him. "What is it, Sergeant?" asked Commander Walters. "Cadets Corbett, Manning, and Astro of the Polaris unit to see you, sir," said the enlisted guardsman. "Send them right in," said Walters.
Jeff was stunned by Vidac's violent action and could only stammer, "I have nothing to say, sir." "Is Corbett or Manning or Astro in on this?" asked Vidac. "No, sir," Marshall said quickly. "I warn you, it won't go easy with you if I catch you shielding those cadets," snapped Vidac. "No, sir," said Marshall, swallowing hard several times, "I am not shielding them." "Very well, then.
We were talking about it not long ago." "A bit hard on Mrs. Waddington to be let in for that." "You needn't worry. Fanny can afford to do pretty well what she likes." He had him there. Sir John knew that this was true of Fanny Waddington, as it was not true of Lady Corbett.
