as he mapped a defense for the caro-
lima co-captains, Crowell Little and
ANDY Bershak.

and. talked about the game OF the

Raw VOLTS boys will come here Sat

feateds khe Gamecocks by COM
Portable score they would have come
over here with their heads high and
would have been. easier to handle,
Newton reasoned.
Newton had praise for Cardinals
ground offense which Melted the Tar
Heels 287 yards. He liked especially
the running of Crowell Little.
"Wolf has fine back in Little. He
is speedy and never stops scrapping
for the last inch. He is hard to stop
and will give us plenty of trouble
here Saturday.
I'm fact there should be plenty OF
running on both sides Saturday. We
have a pair of nifty runners in Eddie
Berlinski and Art Rooney, and we
hope they will be able to keep pace
with Little. Newton said.
Newton also had praise for Caro-
lina's defense against South Caro-
lina's running attack. He pointed to
the IS yards the Birds made rushing
the ball and recalled that South Caro-
lima is credited with having some of
the finest backs in its history.
Andy Bershak, end, was the main
reason why South Carolina was stop

playing good tennis that he had
always found irresistible.
She reminded him a little o.
Esther a few years back, but she
was even more graceful, and an in.
finitely better player. The game
resolved itself into a duel between
her and Lawrence Cox, who was
tall, active, and a hard hitter, but
without much finesse; gradually
she got his measure, and at length
she and the General ran out So.
Grand player, Mrs. Shepherd
said Mower. "Seen many worse at
Wimbledon. I'd like to have a
single with her some time"
Kennedy was not going to have
any Of that just yet, and he set to
work to get another doubles going.
It had turned very hot, and there
was some reluctance on the part Of
the players. Mrs. Shepherd looked
las cool as when she began, but she
seemed anxious not to call over
much attention to her very mani
fest superiority, and declined to
play any more until everyone else
had had game.
Eventually Kennedy and Harold
Arkwright took ION Mower and
Mrs. Doughty, the latter stiptlat-
ing that she should not be asked to
serve. This suited Mower very well.
He had a dozen little mannerisms
that irritated Kennedy: an affected
poise and precious arrangement of
his feet as he served, trick of lean
ing forward on his racket with chin
uptilted as he awaited service, I'M
necessary acrobatic gyrations as he
swooped at balls wide of him, a
little shutting run up to the net
preparatory to taking command of
a rally, a trick of poaching from
his partner at all opportunities, in
evitably followed by an offhand
Sorry, partner" He was, in fact,
a dapper little swanxpot of the first
water, but he could play tennis for
all his swank. Arkwright and
Kennedy, the latter very anxious to
win, were kept on the defensive
practically the whole time. They
lost the set rather easily.
Then it was time for tea, which
was served on the lawn. For a
while Kennedy was busy handing
things around, and he was unable
to control his guests. The party
split up into groups of two: DR..
Arkwright with Mrs. Doughty,
Mower with Alma Shepherd, Cen
eral Doughty with Lawrence Cox.
Kennedy moved round srnilingly
from one to the other, catching
little snatches Of conversation

He came to rest by Esther and
Phyllis. He was surprised at the
color in his wife's cheeks. His
prophecy, lightly and insincerely
made, seemed to have come true:
she was all the better for the dis
traction. He stood behind her chair

hair a picture Of marital devotion.

They started tennis again, and in
the cool Of the afternoon the plays
ers warmed up to it. Four more
sets of doubles, however, proved as
much as the mostly fa..,',cr elderly
company could manage with com
fort, and at the end OF them Ken
nedy decided it was time to employ
strategy. The only real difficulty
was Mower. He went up to him
and took his arm in very friendly
way.
."You don't look tired, Mr..
Mower" he said. st really think

He had quickly appreciated that
Mower considered Cox to be mot

superiority proved irresistible. Cox

out entertaining any illusions about
his play, was willing enough. ard

CHAPTER IL

ALLOWING FOR suggestion
of strain, a tempo slightly acceler-
ated, the tennis party was an I'M
doubted success.
All were shade more hearty
than they would have been on q
quite ordinary occasion, exhibiting
unusual skill in conveying SYM
pathy to their host and hostess
while evading direct mention Of the
cause of it. It is true that Cen
eral Doughty, a slightly moth-eaten
little man, who whatever his intre-
pidity on the battlefield habitually
ran away from all unpleasantness
in his retired state, was so affected
by the warm sunshine and the tenn
porary relenting of his liver that
he took Kennedy aside and barked
bluff1y at him: Had no opportunity
Kennedy Damn sorry. Bad Bush
ness-dafnn bad business" But no
other reference was made, and q
cheerful flag-flying atmosphere
prevailed. j.
! Alma Shepherd, arriving rather
late with Phyllis in her neat little
two-seater, struck an exotic note.
Mrs. Doughty looked at her as If
she suspected her of being fast.
General Doughty and Lawrence
Cox as though they wished she
were. But Alma, after a quick
warming smile to Kennedy and the
guests to whom he introduced her,
behaved with a modesty and a dis
cretion that were both reassuring
and disappointing. She sat down
beside Esther, who to her own sur
prise found she was beginning to
enjoy herself, and the two seemed
to find plenty to talk about.
At three o'clock Mower had not
arrived, and a game Of doubles was
started. kennedy, as host, Mrs.
Doughty, laying claim to rheu-
matte shoulder, and Harold Ark
wright, who at the age of sixty
eight disliked playing in the heat of
the day, stood out. Shortly after
wards, Mower, a youngish man
with straw olored hair and loose
mouth; made a vivid appearance in
q polychromatic blazer and shorts.
so sorry he Apologies. IT had
q patient I couldn't leave. Most
complicated case; I only got home
to my lunch less than an hour ago."
He gave out the air Of a man
hard pressed for time! Kennedy re-
sented his attitude and was inclined
to disbelieve his story. But as Ark |
wright was umpiring and Mrs.
Doughty was beginning to get con-
fdential with Esther, he had to
shoulder the burden of sociability
and the two fenced civilly for a |
time.
Mower seemed i'll at ease and an
:loyed at being out of the game, he |
kept slapping his thighs with his |
racket; Kennedy had his own pre-
occupation. At length they lapsed
into silence, apart from an occa-
sional comment on the game. "Oh, |
hard luck, sir!" Mower would ex-
claim, or "Oh, good kill" or
"Shooting!" or ooh, well played
well played indeed!"
Kennedy was less vocal in his
appreciation, but he was watching
the play closely. Or rather he was
watching Alma Shepherd; her
finely poised head, the warm brown
of her arms against her cool ten
mis- frock, her strong thighs out
lined by. her skirt as she dived for
a low return, the motions Of her
feet, responding with quick precis- |
ion to the messages conveyed by
her brain. II. There was some
