Larry managed, in his suave way, TO
lay the burden Of the quarrel on
Byrd's shoulders. He intimated how
that IL she were sensible, they could
live without friction.
Larry had built a small wine cup
board into the wall Of their clothes
closet. Out Of it now he brought a
half dozen bottles and packed them
into a bag.

into my liquor last night" said
Larry, ruefully, wrapping each bottle
in newspaper and packing IL care
fully in the bag. Sunday I'm going

"What are you going 70 do with

bottles.

I'll put il down as office supplies in
