women who are really doing things, he said. |
There are lots of them around" Win re-
marked.
mo, there aren't Not like you"
Win gave him sidelong glance. DO you
mean women who are doing things" she
asked, "or women who are like me:?'
"A little of both" he told her you know,
you fascinate me- I've practiced law long
enough to kid myself into believing l can
Judge character The minute saw you, | was
impressed by your wholesome air of straight
from the shoulder business Id always inag
ined newspaper women were rather - we'll,
rather hard boiled. But you're not and Il
we'll, l like you though Id hate to match
wits with YOU Id hate to have you for an
adversary
Win thought that over Was he trying to
warn her to keep out of the Judges affairs?
He didn't sound like it. His voice held that
note she had long ago learned to recognize in
mems voices, the man who wants to get better
acquainted and knows that he has to work
fast
stop at the Palm Garden before she said,
What do you mean by having me for an ad-
versary:"
He laughed lightly. Il think you're smart,
Miss Layton. That's ALL
And Win thought over that remark while a
headwaiter was esoorting them to a choice
table Did he, by any chance, think that he
was drawing her out?
Over the cocktails, Win decided that she
wouldn't give him the opportunity to draw
her into conversation which would give him
any clew as to how much she knew or sus-
pected She realized that if he held the con-
versational lead, he might place her in such
position that she would have to make admis-
sions, equivocations or denials. In that way,
if the man were clever, he could gather some
inkling of what she had in mind. That didn't
suit Wins plan. Therefore, she took the con-
versational lead, and kept it upon plane OF.
swift banter.
I've been thinking over what you told me"
he said suddenly, you know, about the i'm
portance of your work. I'm wondering how
you reconcile that with taking an hour off
from news gathering :. Or. are you COM
bining business with pleasure?"
Win realized then that she couldn't delay
much longer She said, rather stiffly, ''Yes,
guess my hour is about up. Thank you for
reminding me-"
"Oh, say" he apologized, Il didn't mean
it that way! Good heavens! Please don't mis-
understand me-" She let him make explana-
tions until the explanations themselves be-
came 50 awkward that he ceased to feel at ease

Three of Champion Eastern
T0ssers on All-High Quint
Second team.

Quantrille and Lusby moving up from
the second team.
Custer. towering sophomore in
clined TO coast when Western was in
front, nevertheless was an offensive
bulwark to the Red Raiders and occa-
sionally produced defensive bits of
brilliance Like Quantrille and STAN
ton, his follow shots and timely snag-
ging of rebounds sparked an interest
ing campaign.
The raw-boned Stanton has been
shifted from his customary center
berth to a forward position, barely
rating the edge over Eastern's Howard
Hancock and Ralph Matera. Central's
Johnny Tanning and Roosevelt S
George West. Tanning, who missed
several games, collected so points to
finish fifth among the point-gathering
aces, but Stanton's steady toiling over
the season earned him margin.
Particularly gratifying was the
showing of several promising lower
semester lads, who, in addition to
Custer, include such players as Hymie
Perlo of Roosevelt, Dick Farr of Gen.
tral and Sgd Schulman of Tech among
many others. These boys poignantly
illustrated scholastic basket ball here
again probably will enjoy the enthu-
siastic following it has missed for sew
| eral years.
