Remove the_content From WordPress Loop

I’m trying to figure out how to display a custom loop with only certain elements in a wordpress loop.

My loop currently contains the title, creation date, author & content.

However I am trying to remove the content for each post in the loop as I do not want it displayed in this list with no luck. I have even removed the_content() out of the loop & it still displays a listing of the post content under the looped section.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

here is my code:

<?php query_posts('category_name=halloween &posts_per_page=6'); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<!-- IF articles then display them -->

<h6><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h6>   
<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author_posts_link() ?></small>

<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<!-- IF no articles were created then show -->

NO Posts Present 

<?php endif; ?>
