 "No. but there are preliminary exams. for those who have conditions to work off
 Orme nodded Its a fine campus you have-with the groves of oaks"
 Yes"
 stroll. I thought I'd walk up the shore"
 There's a rule against going in there after dark"
 'Is there? That's too bad"
 Something funny happened there just little while ago"
 So? What was it? Orme was getting close to the subject he most desired to hear explained
 Why one of tbe cops was walking along the shore and he found Jap anese, stunned
 "A Jaranesei"
 He evidently had wandered In there and somebody had hit him over the head with a club"
 After money?'
 Probably There've been a good many hold-ups lately. But the slug ger didn't have a chance to get any thing this time.'
 How so?"
 He was bending over the Jap when the cop came up. He got away"
 Didn't the cop chase him?"
 No, the fellow had a good start, so the cop stayed by the Jap"
 And what became of the Jap?"
 The life-saver ierked his head toward the door beside him. Hes in there, getting over his headache"
 "Is he?" This was a contingency which Orme had not foreseen. Nor had he any desire to come face to face with Maku. But if he betrayed his surprise. the life-saver did not notice it.
 "The cop is taking another look through the campus" he continued.
 What does the Jap say about it? asked Orme.
 He doesn't say anything. It looks as though he couldn't speak English. The cop is going to get Asuki."
 "Asuki?'
 "A Jap student who lives in the dormitory."
 "Oh." said Orme
 The fact that Maku would not talk was in measure reassuring. His ap- parent inability to understand Eng fish was. of course. assumed unless, indeed, he was still too completely dazed by the blow which Orme had given him, to use tongue which was more or less strange to him. But what would he say if he saw Orme? Would he got accuse his assailant. hoping thus to delay the pursuit of his companion?
 The dAnger was by no means slight. Orme decided quickly to get away from this neighborhood. But just as he was about to bid the life-saver casual goodnight two men came around the corner of the building. One was policeman. the other young Japanese. Orme unoDtrusive- y seated himself on the edge of the little verandas- -
