There almost opposite her on q

Andy calmly smoking q pipe and
with Nicky in his lap.

taken aback that she completely
forgot to say, what a surprise!
What are you doing out in the
woods all by YOURSELF" he asked as
Nicky scampered off on some mys-
FERROUS errand of his own.
Il was just on my way home,
faltered Louise.
CROSS PURPOSES
I've been watching you on your
way home for the past 10 minutes"
observed Andy dryly.
Spying on me?" demanded
Louise trying to make a comeback.
AT first it was quite uninten-
tional, I assure you," Andy whis-
tied to the spaniel. ''Nicky and ]

he ran me ragged; I simply had to
sit down for a breather. I don't
see why you didn't see me here

wouldn't have noticed. Andy rose
and shook the ashes from his
pipe.
Glad to have seen you for

Did you or didn't you?"
"All right" sobbed Louise

Andy snorted. II was on a job

seized both Louise's hands. Nov

still in love with you. I suppose
If I never see you again I'll gel

seem SO.
But never, never will I Lie

not even my wife. And tel me
something: would I have risen

Andy shook his head perplexedly

How about starting all over

The beers came. Biff hadn't

an important message for him.
Here's something for yourself"
I pushed a crumpled bill into
her hand. She padded slowly
off toward Biff. Paying no at
tention to the fact that the band
was playing, she pulled at his
clarinet until he stopped blow
ing. I could see her giving him
my message. Then she pointed
in our direction.
When Biff saw us, his body
stiffened suddenly as though he'd
been given a hypodermic. He
shook his head. The old lady
kept talking to him. Finally, he
made up his mind. He stood up
unsteadily; then lurched over to

Sure" he answered, and
dropped into the fourth chair at

Biff looked us over out of the
corner of his eye.
What did you do, come here
to laugh at me?" he queried,
with bitterness in his voice.

broke from Harriet.

fingers as though she we're

how Biff treated you. Please

listen TO you, I'm sure he will.

Its for your sake, I'm telling
you to forget Biff. 1 know his
type. There are unfortunately
too many of them. Fellows with
little or no courage, who can't
resist the temptations that be-
set a successful artist. You've
got a life of your own to think
of, Harriet. You're going to

his shoulders. Il made my bed
and I'm lying in it,"
I'm sorry" I continued, ig.
noring his remark, ito see a
musician as capable as you

He chuckled sardonically.
Musician, did you say? I
thought so once myself. But
Broadway figured differently.
And, I guess, Broadway knows
best"
At this point, Sammy butted
in, Gee, Biff, you burnt them
up. Everybody says you're ter
rificacious."
Said, you mean. We all make
mistakes. I guess I made mine
when I thought I could be a
front man. But that's all over.
You can go back and tell the

They still talk about you

declared Biff. He swayed un.

ately. IT'S Just an episode.

 CHAMPS OF 1888

Boston, Feb. 24.-(UP)-Dart- mouth won its fourth consecutive league game and the quadrangular hockey league title by defeating Har- yard 7-6 in an overtime battle at Boston Garden last night.
 A goal by Forrest Mather of Well lesley during the fifth minute of the overtime gave the Big Green its second consecutive win over liar yard, generally favored to retain its league championship.
 At the end of wild second period, which produced seven goals, Harvard led 5-4. Last period tal- lies by Bob Eglehoff on a penalty shot and by Dan Sullivan gave Dartmouth a 6-5 margin with ten minutes to go.
 Captain Traf Hicks of Harvard tied the score at 1906 but Dart mouth came back to win during the overtime.

 Then Red" Mucci, captain of the New Dealers took his clans right over the alley and and finished the night by scalping those flick ering Scouts for thre more games. When think how Red" Mucci can beat those Scouts, I'm beginning to believe that he must have the Evil Eye on them, because, when Red" stares at Carp" and his Scouts they seem to be in a trance and loose control of everything they try to throw, and when Red" focuses those eyes of his on anyone he means business.
 And thus he likes to focus them Carp.

LOURDES BOXERS
 BILLED TOMORROW

Two of the Lourdes boxers, Mickey Sprano and Greeky Metro, will don the gloves and get into action to- morrow night against two other worthy opponents at Lourdes hall. Manager Bat Bonaldi of the Lourdes has been training Sprano and Metro regularly and is confident of vic- tory.
 Sprano faces Billy Petit, a clever little boxer. Mickey is unbeaten as yet and it looks like Petite will have to go some to get the nod over Sprano.
 Metro goes up against Wally Tata, "River street champ" Greeky has been doing fine lately and a victory over Tata would add to his record.
 All in all, it should be a great show and indications point to a large turnout.
 Mickey Verno will referee the bouts while Jimmy Fazzino will be timekeeper.
