that 1t would have required a definite
enort on Dennis part to return to any,
thing like their old relationship. and
there was in him strange sort of shv-
ness, often mistaken for conceit. which
held him back from making any such
effort. --
"Hullo, Raleigh" he said. when thew
met IN the corridor just before evening
prayers on the first night of term.
Glad to see you here. Every one ali
right at homer"
Yes, thanks. stanhope. Quite all
right" He had it on the tin of his
tongue to tell him how Pat had oot
rheumatism. and how Madge was in
her First Eleven 1T hockey. But there
were other fellows passing all the time,
ENHANCING word or two of GREETING
with Stanhope as they passed. so that
he let the opportunity slip.
Whose dorm are you IMP"
"Thornburn's'
Same floor as mine. Everything all
right? Finding your way about?"
Yes, thanks, Stanhope."
Bit strange at first, hut you'll soon
settle down. Come to me If there's any
difficulty"
Thanks very much. But I'll be all
right"
You ought to be pretty useful for
the Junior House matches. Grainger's
want some good bats. You know how
to hit all right. Get some practice, and
you ought to be in the Junior Eleven.
It's time Grainger's got the cup back
Wen, see you about some time"
And Stanhope went off to his study
little relieved to get the first interview
over so we'll. Raleigh was a sensible
Kid, and realized that things were Diff
ferent now. A very decent kid, in fact.
and he'd soon become popular. He had
that knack of getting on well with
people and making them like him.
AS Tor Raleigh, he thrust into the
background a slight feeling of disap-
polntment. He had so many messages
and so many items of gossip that
have liked to
near. He had not even given Daddy's
invitation to come down for any holi-
days ne could-Somehow it wasn't done.

they did not matter. Girls didn't really

at q public school. Besides, Stanhope
couldn't be expected to be interested in |
all her gossip about her own school. |
AND 1t was very decent of Dennis
talk like that about the |
Junior House Cricket Cup. He must |
practice like blazes.
His thoughts were interrupted by a |
boy who came along the corridor. |

He fired of his questions, and gave
Raleigh no time to answer them. Then
he called to his friends in the COM
mon room
kid
Raleigh, aeutely nervous and un-
happy, but trying hard to appear at
ms ease, spent al unpleasant half hour
answering questions until the bell rang
Tor prayers, and he trooped with all
the other boys into big room, where
Mr.. Granger, the houSemaSter, read q
passage out of the New Testament, and
then led the general recitation of the
Lords Prayer, always q beat or two
ahead of the confused echo of it that
came from the boys. Afterwards he
gave short lecture on the importance
of making the most of the new term
while Raleigh allowed his eyes to wan
der to the shields that hung all round
the room. Shooting Eight. Balliol
Scholar. First Fifteen. First Eleven.
An immense list of distinctions. dating
back to 1880, when the system had been
adopted. The most recent shield was
only half filled. Stanhope's name was
already there for his share in capturing
the Gym Cup, and for winning the
Junior mile.
1t was big shield, with room for
some rs more names. How, Raleigh
wondered, as he waited at the tail of
a long queue for biscuits and milk, could
ne manage to get his name carved in
the polished oak of one of these tablets
OF distinction? He'd jolly well do his
best
When the Raging in the dermitory
was over and he was on the verge of
sleep, his last conscious thoughts dealt
with this impressive shield, and with
Dennis decency for promising to help
him If he needed help.

FRIENDS ENGAGE
WRONG GIRL TO
FOOTBALL STAR

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20 U.P)-
Well ll-intentioned friends who in
sisted that the engagement of
Orville Mohler, star Southern Cal
ifornia football player. and Rosita
Moreno, film actress, be made pub
lie, succeeded only in revealing the
true object OF Mohler's affections
today.
Mohler is to be married, all right
but 10 Miss Gertrude Ross. 10, OF
Long Beach. Miss Moreno is just
a friend. he declared.
Miss Moreno yesterday practic-
ally admitted her reported engage
lEent to Mohler when she said that
formal announcement" would have
TO wait until he graduated from
college three years hence. She was
too young, she said.
Vigorous denialS on the part Of
Mohler brought investigation into
his embarrassment, and Miss Ross
was found TO be at the bottom of
it. Mohler's mother admitted the
engagement, and so did Miss Ross.
Mohlers only statement was that
Gertrude is just wearing my fra
ternity pin-which means that she
is my girl
Miss Ross is the daughter Of
