Yeah, that's the name-Dunn
Why?'
Larry gripped the edge of the
desk angrily.
Why, that girl-I've known her
since she was knee high She's one
Of the sweetest little youngsters ever
born. And she-she~ came in and
alibied for this lad Harkins? She S
been with him, canoeing, all after
noon?"
That's it."
Lord" said Larry fervently. "Is
Montague making that kid perjure
herself to keep his clients"
FIe got up and strobe around the
office, swearing softly under his
breath.
81 don't think she was lying"
said Hagan calmly. Il think she
was telling the truth. An that's
what makes it puzzling. Because
1 can't help thinking that Harkins
was the bird who pulled that rob-
berry. too"
That doesn't make sense, then"
said Larry, stopping his mad pac-
ing. IF she was with him. that aft
ernoon he couldn't have done it."
Il know" said Hagan glumly.
You could see the kid was on the
level And yet"
lean DUNN drew her legs up I'M
~ der her, as she sat in the corner
of the davenport, and beamed across
the room at Larry Glenn, who sat
at his ease in the easy chair under
the bridge lamp.
You can't say it isn't pretty fiat
tering," she said.
What is?"
Having you for a caller Hum
bic stenographer entertaining the
busy business man-what is it, again,
that you're doing, Larry?"
"Oh, I do odds and ends of jobs
for Uncle Sam" said Larry. He
hesitated, on the verge Of asking the
girl whether she knew anything
about her employers surreptitious
deal in stolen bonds. Then he de-
cided against it. He would go to
Montague himself, in the morning.

TISHING 80 miles off Ocean City
- recently, two local anglers, Paul
and Jack Townsend, sons of
Il Senator Townsend of Delaware,
landed two marlin swordfish, weigh
ing 100 and IS pounds These anglers,
using their own boat, the Jackpau,
with Capt. Bill Hatch. one of Miamis
best known fishing guides as their
pilot, motored out southeast of Ocean
City and ran into a school OF these
gamesters.
Paul Townsendis marlin weighed
100 pounds and was 8 feet 7
inches long and had tail spread of
81 inches. 1t required 40 minutes to
land him. Jack Townsend's marlin
weighed IS pounds and was 6 feet 10
inches long, and this member of the
Townsend household spent 80 minutes
to bring his fish close enough to the
boat to be gated
They hooked two more marlin, but
the fish were the winners Another
marlin came up in back Of them, but
would not take the bait.
Paul Townsend also hooked 800
pound porpoise, but after battling him
for an hour and half, a shark came
along and took two mouthfuls Of Mr..
Porpoise, and Paul's battle ended.
Marlin are caught of the Maryland
coast about this time each Summer,
but one has to go out a great distance.
They are fine fighters.

River is so muddy that there will be
no fishing this week At Harpers Fer
ry the Shenandoah is slightly cloudy
and the Potomac clear. AS we already

Broomes Island last Sunday and had
very good luck. He landed several
rockfish weighing about Ia and 2
pounds. using shrimp for bait; also
a couple of sea trout weighing around
3 pounds. this time using cut spot.
He reports that spot now are plentiful.
