 Anne laughed. Now you're be- ing silly again, Dan Rorimer."

Just a simple little routine now, Miss Winter-anything at all," Hur- ley said. He swung around on the piano stool SO he could watch her, but his fingers were very busy on the keys and he beat time softly with his foot and his head went up and down in smiling accompani- ment
 The piano sounded strangely there in the shadows, a small, s,ringed voice in a vast emptiness. urging her on to unfamiliar steps. But Hurleys grin was friendly and encouraging, and Harvey Bell sprawled cheerfully in chair and smoked cigar and there was that i, his attitude which conveyed the feeling that the proceeding was not at all strange One looked at him and took heart
 And presently Ann began to dance. Lightly and easily. Simple steps, for all of the eymnastic tap tap-tapping Of feet and rapidity of movement.

 More seriously he informed her that he had been more interested in what she looked like while danc- ing than in the actual performance ot the steps.

 NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 CHAPTER MI
 The casting director at Grand Union had telephone Anne Winter that he wanted to see her, The call had come during q day when Anne vas doing extra work in picture at First National, and 1t was Eva Harley who gave her the message that evening,
 Anne said, Really, Eva ?' in such q tone Of unbehet that the older girl laughed and put an arm around her You know wouldn't fool you. darling" she said
 You'd better lie down and rest, Anne Eva added seeing the others face suddenly turn pale and sensing that she might be at taching unwarranted significance to a telephone call that might prove to be little more than rou- tine. Eva could have told her not 10 let her hopes run 100 high.
 Anne said, T wonder what he vants?" and stretched out q little vearily on q sofa. Do you know, Eva? Where's Mona"
 Maybe he has a bit for you. '' Eva answered. Maybe 1t s something better. even; but I wouldn't count on l. Mona s working some place in Poverty Row" she added. referring to a group of small Independent studios. Someone over there is making a quickie; they'll probably work her half the night
 Anne confessed 10 Rorlmer some time later that she had lain awake half the night, trying not to build aIr-castles and desperately seeking sleep. with her pulse pounding madly and not-to- -be-stilled voice ringing in her fevered brain
 The casting director wanted to ask her some questions. Anne learned. and he said there was a possibility Of something interest ing" for her.
 He vas dapper, alert-looking young man, in his early or middle thirties, Anne judged, and when she had answered q number Of questions concerning her history he smiled and tapped on his glass topped desk and asked her if she could dance.
 Anne hesitated. You mean stage dancing?"
 He nodded. Tap dancing
