She began to feel a nostalgia for
the friends she had left behind,
the scenes that had been familiar
since her childhood. Kay needed
the warmth of human sympathy.
There were times when she wouI,
fling herself face down on her bed
and lie there, very quiet, for hours
at a time. One night she let the
tears come, and sObbed out this
feeling of loneliness and deser-
ton.
Then she read in . newspaper
that Ted Graham's ship was due
in San Francisco bay the next
day. Again, deep in her heart,
Kay felt a kindling of hope. II
she could only see him again!
The twO-room apartment, with
its chintz trimmings. seemed in
tolerably lonely. Kay got up, put
on an evening frock, and flung a
cloak over her arm. The night
was cool, as were all nights at this
altitude.
Her adventurous spirit was stir

the Marlin Dude Ranch Which she
knew was a rendezvous for mem

were any aviation figures in town,
she would find them here.

U.S.S. Kane Lands Last

-unconquered city, which Balboa
carries on its official letterhead IN
memory of the fact it had been
often besieged during Carhst wars
but never taken, is in danger OF,
being conquered by disease and
starvation, if not by force OF arms;
The thousand refugees crowd
hourly into the city, putting a
strain such as never before eXpe.-
rienced on sanitary services and
food supplies.
Defenders of the city insist that
they are able to hold off the rebels
but most of the refugees arriving
here today were of the opinion
that Gen. Emilio Mola would be
able to take Bilboa as he took
run and San Sebastian.
The refugees paint Bilboa as an
overcrowded city, where heavily
armed anarchists instituted a
reign of terror, where dead bodies
could be found on the streets,
where food conditions already
have approached those in Germany
at the end Of the World war.
Following a warning broadcast
by rebels that beginning at mid
night ali approaches to Bilboa and
Santander harbors would be
mined, all foreigners were evacu-
ated.
The U. S. destroyer Kane, az
irving with SO American citizens,
reported that small boats reaching
Bilboa, brought fugitives from
other sections at the rate of 1000
an hour. Those aboard estimated
the same number arriving by road.
The Kane landed the last Amer
lean citizens from Bilboa. The U.
s consul. w. f. Chapman, was
the last man to climb up the ships
ladder, completing the evacuation
of Americans.
Only two of the refugees are
native-bCrn Americans; the others
were born in Puerto Rico or the

are Mrs. Adelina Guindas, nee

Reception Satisfactory at

By JOHN F. FRANKlSH
United Press Staff Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. Is.
CUP)-Television has reached the
stage of satisfactory reception
over short distances, but many
obstacles must be overcome before
visual broadcasting will be prac-
tical commercially.
Recent developments have made
it possible for engineers to con-
struct broadccsting and receiving
equipment capable of reproducing
images several miles away with
virtually the clarity of home mo-
ton pictures.
In a recent demonstration, a
sound-picture broadcast from ex-
detrimental station W3XE in Phil
adelphia was received with clarity
by a group of newspapermen OBJ
serving television under home
conditions at suburban Rydal,
seven miles away.
Photographers too ktime-expos-
ures of a portrait as it was recelv-
ed on the home set and the result
revealed remarkably clear repro

BY DECK MORGAN
BEGIN HERE TODAY

Kay Dunn, pretty young nurse,
applies for a job as stewardess on
Overland Anyways. In the Over
land office she encounters Ted
Graham, veteran pilot of Trans
Pacific Always, and largely due
to mis- intervention, she is accepted
for a trial period.
Two other girls, Doris Lee aud
Alice Miller, are accepted on the
same basis.
Graham, who flies the trans-Pa-
cifie route, is on his way to San
Francisco. He shows Kay about
the airport. When his plane ar
rives and he waves goodby, she
wonders If she will ever see him
again.
The three girls begin their
training that night by boarding a
plane for New York.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER VI
Kav's first run on the Overland
Anyways route was from Reno to
San Francisco bay The home port
was Reno, i'm the pleasant green
valley of the WaShOe r!Ver--a
vertable oasis in the midst OF the
Nevada desert. But Ray was
lonely there. terribly alone.
Her early lessons i'm Self-dlScl-
pline served her well. She tried
to organize her life around her
Job. During the day there was a
four-hUur run 10 the Oakland
Airport and a four-hour return.
Sometimes. when the shift.
changed, she spent the night on
the bay. But i'm Reno, where most
Of her leisure hours were spent,
she rented in little furnished
apartment.
She did not meet Ted Graham,
as she had so fondly hoped to do.
She read about him in the news
papers and followed the routine
of the tranS-Pacific flight, day by
day, eastbound, westbOund.
She knew Ted's approximate
position every day of the week
Honolulu, Midway, Guam, Manila.
But on the days when he was I'M
port, at Ship Harbor, he usually
went to his ranch in the San Car
los valley to rest. Between such
rest periods he was away from
the home port for three weeks at
a time. Ray had never been on
the bay when his ship came in.
As the weeks passed she became
increasingly absorbed in her work.
She felt like u veteran now. AT
first she had missed the bustling
activity of the Central Airport.
At the flying field in Reno there
were not nearly as many planes
coming and going and the local
passenger traffic was not heavy.
Kay usually drove out to the
airport with the pilot who was
taking the plane down to the Pa
cific. 1t was long drive, leaving
THE Biggest Little City in the
World behind and following a
paved highway through green
fields that had been salvaged from
the desert. In the distance were
the Snow-capped peaks of the 81
ezra Nevada range.
The westbound plane appeared
first as a tiny speck on the hOrl-
zon. 1t always reminded Kay OF
her first trip by air through the

one she knew. She sat down at
the roulette table and bought some
counters. She had no idea how
the wheel operated, but she was
game for anything tonight.
She lost one stack of chips and
bought another. She was placing
a counter on the red marker
when a hand caught her elbow
of about %. He had dark brown
hair and blue eyes.
He had also, Kay noted, had
several cocktails. She did not
recognize him, but his face was
tanned with the leathery sort of
tan by which one comes to recog-
nize u man as an invcterate flyer.
Perhaps she had met him some
where. There was no denying,
either, that he had a gay, impu-
dent smile that intrigued her!
She smiled, but played the red
again and lost. Number 10 green
won and the young man who was
still standing behind her laughed.
TRY 10 green again." he said,
and she put her money on the red.
When 10 green won again she
stood up to go, smiling a little
ruefully.
"Oh, wait-pleasew he begged.
Then he showed some money down
on the table. "The lady plays
number 10 green"
Kay hesitated. There were so
many people standing around,
talking and playing that this en-
counter seemed quite harmless.
And then the red won!
"See?' tn eyoung man said.
'You wouldn't take my advice
when it was right. But if | were
you, right now, I'd come have q
drink at the bar with me"
She shook her head, declining,
and turned to move away.
But the young man was not to
be so easily discouraged. please

They went out and got into a taxi
which whirled them out into the
cool desert air.

Monte made a clumsy attempt to
kiss her, but he was easy to evade.

he had drunk din't mix. Soon he
slumped in the seat at her side.

er's aid she got Monte up one
flight of stairs into her little
apartment.
