The Wedge
He was a large man, but thin and bony-faced. His dirty gray coverall bore the name "Barnsley" upon grimy white tape over the heart. Except at the shoulders, it looked too big for him. His hair was dark brown, but the sandy ginger of his two-week beard seemed a better match for his blue eyes.
Finally, he satisfied the softly insistent gong by standing up and gazing in turn at each of the three doors spaced around the cylindrical chamber. He deliberately adopted an expression of simple-minded anticipation as he ambled over to the nearest one.

Old fashioned sci fi short story.
Old fashioned sci fi short story from pulp magazine. Mr Fyfe participated in Ww2 and then wrote stories for the pulp market. This one is about outwitting alien scientists.
