MEETING LAST WEEK AT

Tonight the High School Vars
ity gets return crack at the Key
West College All Stars.
The All Stars kept a safe lead
during the entire game, the first
clash last week, although the
prep boys staged a late rally that
made the final score close. It will
be up to them tonight to watch
a primed High School five, Just

Coach Huddleston has been
working on a few mmebers of his

SPARKLING of the team. But Per-

defeating the Collegemen last

the margin of victory.

There was no mistaking the de-
light in his tone. Media thought
feetingly about the irony of life.
Here was she agonizing because a
college education was snatched
away from her, and this young
man was gloating over the fact
that he was put out of school.
After a few remarks back and
forth they found that they had a

barrassment.
That's all right" she fastened
to assure him.
Strangely, his whole appearance
became etched clearly on her
mind. His face and hands were
stamped with the brown tint that
comes from days spent in the OUT
doors. It was a sensitive face with
high cheek bones. His blue eyes
had IN them an ex preston that
suggested he'd been hurt by life
IN some way. His cheap gray suit
failed 10 conceal the youthful, rip
ping strength Of his limbs. There
was force in this man, Media
thought.
He seemed to be cataloging her,
too. Most men looked lingeringly
at Media Barrie. Her mouth was
red and full. When she spoke. or
smiled, it vas as though q vivid
flower had come to life. Al trace Of
Spanish blood IN her ancestry had
given her a mop Of silken black
hair that was confined in two knots
az the nape Of her neck, a pair Of
dark eyes that now gazed out from
under an innocent-looking, but
devastating, off-the-face black felt
hat. Her slim young body was clad
IN a wsne-colored Jersey suit that
clung to every perfect outline.
Her eyes met Bills. Evidently
becoming aware that he was star

some uncomfortable electric cur
rent.
