that the colored people shall share

Nothing"
Yes there is! There's some

Vivian wheeled about with
that dark blindness in her eyes
and burst into tears.

Vivian Desperate
Pippin felt weak. She drop
ped to her knees and put her
arms around Vivian's waist:
What makes you think
Sherry is so hopeless? Give
him a chance. Vivian. He was
awfully mad about you only
a little while ago."
Vivian said, in a still, dim
tone:
Hes not mad about me
now"
But he won't let you down.
He's not that sort"
Vivian leaned down and
looked with a dead calm into
Pippin's face:
"He won't let me down, no"
Something in the still, icy
desperation of her tone went
into Pippin's brain like bright,
sharp knife. She stood up, the
room clouding. She took hold
of Vivian's shoulders and whis-
pered in Vivian'S face:
"You knew this last Tuesday
this was what you heard
what made you look so wild.
You got up that picnic-you

I was happy at the picnic. My
last happy day. Don't worry
about that angle. I don't want
to die. It's no solution. How
could you think I meant to
drown? I'd hate that strang-
ling"
Pippin's heart made a loud,
frightened tumult in her
throat. She went on:
Don't do that, Vivian! That
would be worse to your mother
than anything"
"I'm not going to kill myself,
Pippin. I'm going to meet it
somehow. -"

Magruder Derides County
Police Probe Report

Condemning the threatened in
vestigation of Prince Georges
county constables by the grand
jury Monday as Republican propa-
ganda, county officials today
termed the report as ridiculous"
The report is that the consta-
bles, formerly serving two years,
did not have their terms length
ened to four years when the State
constitution was revised. Conse-
quently, the charge is made that
arrests by many constables during
the last two years, since their ap-
pointments would have thus run
out, are illegal.
M. Hampton Magruder, counsel
to the board Of county commiS-
sioners said:

IT don't know. Lost my head,
I guess"
Pippin's Fear
Vivian said with a laugh,
"Well, I'm glad they didn't no
tice. I thought for a moment
you were going to drown me-"
They walked, chattering, to
the big, roaring bonfire and
dried themselves. Vivian said:
1--WE had a nice little swim,
only it wasn't long enough"
She sank to the sands, letting
her head rest against Sherry's
shoulder.
"It's all fixed up, Vivian,
isn't it?" Pippin said happily
the next day. "He seemed aw-
fully sweet last night. Awfully
glad to be with you"
Moonlight and music and
any pretty girl" said Vivian,
her back turned as she reached
down book.
1T didn't seem that way to
me. He was all in love with
you, again. You looked beauti-
ful-more haunting than usual"
II planned it. That's the last
picnic for year or So"
do you mean Sherry hasn't
come back?"
I'm not really thinking about
it Pippin. You seem to be do
ing all the worrying"
Vivian opened her books and
refused to talk further. She
sat there in a kind of hard, cold
tensity.
That Afternoon Pippin saw
Sherry walking across the cam
pus carrying Paula Needs books
and laughing down at her
gayly.
Pippin went to Vivian's apart
ment. The latch was off. She
walked in. She must have gone
noiselessly. for Vivian didn't
hear her.
The living room had a disor-
dered air. Letter paper, Scrib-
bled across and torn to pieces,
lay on the floor.
Vivian was sitting at her bu-
reau, her hands clenched to-
gether, black wildneSS in her
eyes. Pippin saw her reflection
in the mirror before Vivian had
a chance to pull any mask over
her expression.

delicious business. Sherry and
Vivian ran back to the fire.
In a moment Vivian was at
Pippin's side again. She said,
the moonlight making her face
so white and her eyes glitter
ing:
cts gorgeous fun. Oh, Pip
pin, did you ever know such a
lovely night! Take my hand.
See if we can hold together.
Come on-let's go!"
The water rushed between
them, breaking their clasp. Pip
pin rode back on wave.
Laughing and her teeth chatter
ing, she shook the foam from
her eyes. She saw Gregg drag
ging a log and Sherry stand
ing at the fire. She looked
startled at the breaker and
called:
"Veev! Where's Veev?"
They stood needless at the
fire.
Pippin called through the
boom of the sea:
"Is Vivian there?"
Then she saw, or thought she
saw, someone swimming just
beyond the breakers. She
thought indignant:
"She shouldn't do that. 1t is
too dark"
She struck out and in a mo.
ment was at Vivian's side. She
called:
"You scared me. Come back"
Vivian answered:
II like it,"
"We're out too far. It's freez-
ing"
I'm not cold. You go in. I
want to SWIM"
She went on and on. Sud-
denly oippin was frightened.
She said, "Vivian, come back!"
and flung her arms around
Vivian's neck.
Even in the dimness, Pippin
could see the startled look in
Vivian's eyes. She managed,
'''Let go, fool. I'll come in"
She swung around then. The
waves carried them back. AS
they emerged from the foam
ing surf Vivian said:
why did you do that?
Sherry and I often swim out
there. It's smooth as glass"
Rippin felt foolish. She said,,
