She rode on the subway until she

the operator could understand Ger

had forgotten her directions and again
telephoned her mistress.
There she was directed to take q

a train all right. but at Woodhaven
Junction she was told In sign language
to change cars. In changing she got
on a train running to Long Island
City. Just as far from her ultimate
destination as when she started. More
long distance telephoaing and moro
explicit directions. She got on train
that took her as far as Woodside'
where she had to make another
change OF cars. Finally she was two
blocks from home but still lost.
