"And it's such a pity" he remarked
satirically.
I'm not a sweet young thing like
Cynthia. She represents something
subtly precious-an ideal. I don't,
naturally. That's so, isn't it?'
Ever so briefly he hesitated. Then,
Yes" he assured her.

The next instant they hit a tele-

Then the lights flashed across them.
Whats he coming here for?" de.
manded Bob's father.
Cant imagine. Guess I'll go and

He reached the house as the truck
stopped in front of it. He saw Jed
step down and two other figures
emerge from the drivers seat.

heard Jed say.
AIMS father stepped out of the
shadow. What's happened?"
One of the men turned toward him.
AIMS father realized that 1t was Bob.
"Ann's hurt-badly, I'm afraid" bab-
bled Bob. I'VE were driving and--the

"Will-will she live?" pleaded Bob.
AIMS father hardly saw, barely
heard him. He did not answer. and
Bob shrank back against the wall. He
was still there when AIMS father re-
turned with the hot water; he had not
moved when, an hour later, AIMS
father again emerged.
WAS that AIMS voice?" Bob asked
breathlessly.

JONES VS.. JONES
AS ARMY MEETS
YALE BULLDOG
Diff" Leads the Cadets
and "Tad" the Sons of
Old Eli.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-The piping
notes of Reveille' sounding out
across the Hudson from the West
Point cliffs today called the army
football squad from rosey dreams
of triumphant touchdowns and
nightmares of fumbled punts, and
started "Biff' Jones' charges on
the march of New Haven
The army team is going to meet
its first real test Of the season
against the bulldog in Yale bowl
Saturday, and it was n confident,
determined squad which set out at
daybreak.
"Wo are in pretty good shape and
have a good team was the extent
of Head Coach Jones' predictions
concerning the game which promises
to thrill some 10000 at New Haven
tomorrow.
The YaleArmy game means more
this year than it did in 1926. Then
the bulldog was a pretty sick pup
and the powerful cadets swept
through the bowl to SO to 0
triumph.
Tad Jones' team is better this
year and ready for the army. In
iuries, the old New Haven bugbcar,
have begun to take their toll. But
Yale had been permitted but one
afternoon of scrimmage this week,
and most of the regulars are in
shape.
Jack, Flaherty, who has been one
of the regular Eli lincsmen. is out
for the season with a broken leg,
and Duncan Cox. star back, ias an
injured hip which may keep him
out of the army game.
While the army coach Processes
satisfaction with the condition Of
his men Frank Wandel trainer Of
West Point athletes, says the squad
will not reach the peak of condition
for couple of weeks.
1t will need to be in condition to
defeat Yale convincingly tomorrow.
Early season defeats put the bull
dog on its mettle and the team s.
showing against Brown was par
ticularly pleasing to Tad Jones.
