[net.sf-lovers] Pittsburgh Sci Fi Story

mark@sdencore.UUCP (Mark DiVecchio) (04/28/85)

	About 15 years ago, I remember reading a SciFi story which took
place in the East Liberty neighborhood of Pittsburgh specifically around
the East Liberty Police Station. I don't remember any of the plot.

	I was living in the area at the time as a student at CMU.

	It was a short story not a novel.

	Does anyone remember the author or title of the work?

The story you have described is "The Circuit Riders"
by R. C. FitzPatrick from Analog. It is in the collection
"Analog 2" edited by John W. Campbell. The second printing of the
Paperback Library edition I have was printed August, 1971, which
is appox. the time you mentioned.
