AS soon as it was dark, Keith and
Bill met Mary at the dock in front OF
the Cartwright cottage. They were taxing the
Cartwright canoe because it was bigger tnan
Marys and they would need plenty Of space.
All OF them wore bathing suits under their
outer clothes.
They put out into the lake. apparently for
an ordinary ride, but when the darkness OF
the night had swallowed them, they turned
along shore and proceeded at good speed
directly to the old boathouse. Keith, In the
bow. had q dashhght. but by this time tney
knew the vicinity Of the boathouse so well that
he did not have to use 1t until they were
actually inside.
There hidden along one wall and covered by
old canvas, were the three sections Of Roiio,
the sea serpent. And as the dancing rays OF
the nashlght fell on the big head and green
body, Rollo certainly looked like some horrible

cut to the dock and slowed in the canoe BY
aattening out the wire temporarily. they were
able to stow him away so that he hardly
showed above the gunwales-although he did
slop over the sides in one two places.
THEY talked very little as they climbed back
into the canoe, with Bill in the stern.
Keith at the bow paddle, and Mary amdships
with Rono. They all felt that this was to be
their greatest adventure so far, and they were
tense with excitement and anticipation.
1t was a long paddle back to the yacht club
but before long they could see the lights OF the
building streaming festively out over the water.
and hear the strains Of the dance orchestra.
Luckily they passed no other boats on the lake,
and with great care and complete silence,
they worked their canoe in toward shore

"O.K.," said Bill. 'I'n hold the canoe right

Gosh sakes, don't forget where am when you
come back"
Swiftly and silently Mary and Keith took
of their outer clothes and, in their bathing
suits, slipped carefully over the side of the
canoe into the water. Bill had readjusted
the frame Of the serpent until it was again its
normal shade, and now he passed the Sec
ti0ns over.

when Judge M. V. Barnhill, who
sentenced the young Tennesseean
and his famous father, Luke Lea,

tons, recommended executive
clemency for the son after he
serves 80 to 80 days of a two to
six-year term.
The Rocky Mount jurist, in a
letter to Parole Commissioner Ed

ton on the opinion that it was
natural for young Lea to follow
the lead of his "domineering'' IA
Their in illegal bank trasactions
'even knowing that what he did
was wrong, as it is for a young
duck to take water"
Gill said he expected to present
the letter to Governor Ehringhaus,
who alone holds the power of pa

ably in the recommendation, it i:
possible for Luke, Jr., who is "a:
to be released sometime in July OF
