CHAPTER vi.
The House in the Cave.

THE German guard, facing Peg,
| gys pistol, put up his hands
above his head. Now that
Peggy had captured him, she didn't
know what to do with him. Sup
posing Officer Casey shouldn't come
back. Surprising he had been over
come by the other guard. It wasn't
pleasant to think about. This chap
might spring at her any minute.
And then what would she do?'
Good girl" whispered a voice
behind her. Keep him that way a
minute and III fix him."
Peggy was comforted. She knew
Officer Casey was near. But why
was he hiding? Why didn't he come
boldly up and take the German pris-
oner:?
She waited and waited, but Officer
Casey did nothing, Her arm grew
tired, and the pistol wavered a bit.
She saw the Germans eyes light up
as he noticed this and she steadied
her hand.
Suddenly there came a thud from
nearby in the torest-the sound OF
some one crashing to the ground-a
sharp groan-a brief struggle-then
silence.
The German stiffened. His eyes
cleaned. Evidently he thought aid
was at hand. For just a moment
Peggy's eyes strayed in that direc-
ton. In that moment the German
leaped toward her. She pulled the
trigger of the pistol. There followed
only a harmless click.
The German gave cry Of
triumph. But he rcjolced too soon
Whang! A club came down on his
head and he sprawled at Peggy
feet. The club was in the hands Of
Officer Casey, who quickly had the
fellow tied up.
That finishes the last of the
guards said the policeman. you
were a brave girl to hold this chap
so long with an unloaded pistol. 1t
gave me a chance to get his COM
panlon. Now for the cave in the
rocks"
They quickly climbed to the top
of the hill. There they found two tall
trees that served as wireless towers.
While they were looking for the
rest of the equipment, Blue Jay gave
cry of warning. A man was COM
ing up through a gully. Peggy and
Officer Casey quickly hid them
selves.
The man went straight to one Of
the tall trees. He pulled rope and
there appeared from the bushes one
end of the wireless 'aerials." Then
he went to the other tree and pulled
up the other end. The plant was
ready for business.
As the man hurried back down
the gully, Officer Casey and Peggy
followed They saw him go up to

81 am not very familiar with play with

If you have converted your brassie into
"toppum," it may be because you tee
your ball too high. and in changing from
a driver to your brassie you do not make
sufficient allowance for the difference
between a "teed" ball and one lying in

CLINE NOW SEEKS
LEONARD BATTLE
Offers to Give Purse to Red
Cross for Chance
at Title
MEETS JACKSON TUESDAY
By JAMES S. CAROLAN

Benny Leonard has been challenged
again. This time it is another high-class
boy seeks to dethrone the present light
weight king. Irish Patsy Kline, flashy
Gothamite, who performs at the all-star
show at Shibc Park on Tuesday night
Officially has challenged Leonard. Patsy
is sincere and says he will give his end
of the purse to the Red Cross If Leon
ard will meet him over the title route.
Cline is a classy performer. He gave
Leonard one of his hardest battles here
last December and was the first to
shock the Leonard gathering when he
rocked Benny in that third round with
a right to the jaw. Patsy held the lead
until the end of the fifth. when he took
one on the chin and hit the floor for the
five count. This knock down was
enough to give Benny the verdict.
Cline Is out to win decisively over
Willie Jackson here next week. Jackson
is a classy one and likely to cause Cline
plenty of trouble. Leonard expects to
be in the city to attend the big boxing
party and get line on his challenger.
Cline has been working regularly and
right now is in top form His willing
ness to give his entire end of the purse
to the war cause shows that Patsy is
sincere and believes he has a chance
against the hard-htting champion.
