CHAPTER VIM !.

Norwood could almost physically
feel those diamonds in his tunic
pocket. He should have asked
Lynn not to mention them. He knew
that. 1t was too late to turn back.
And besides, she was having q row
with her aunt and it wouldn't be
cricket to butt in. He wished he
hadn't seen Lynn kiss Rundhia.
There were two things that Norwood
ached to do that minute. One was
to punch Rundhia. The other was
to 90 to the temple and throw those
diamonds at the high priest.
But that was just the kind of
thing that Norwood could be trusted
not to do. He knew exactly what he
should do. But the Maharajah and
his court were waiting to give him
official audience. He glanced at his
watch. There remained only Ave
minutes in which to reach the pal
ace in time for the appointment, so
he mounted his horse at the gate
and rode up the long drive to the
front door, where he arrived exactly
on the minute. The sails wiped the
dust from his boots and he strobe up
the palace steps, expecting to get
away within fifteen minutes. But
time, in India, is one of lethargy's
dimensions.
As a captain. Norwood wasn't en-
titled to be received from the
throne, so the Maharajah sat on a
gilded chair at one side Of the room,
with officials Of only second-grade
importance on smaller chairs to
right and left. The chamberlain
stood and read aloud from the in
struction for the reception Of Brit
ish captains:
''His Highness now enquiries after
the visitors health /. /. The visitor
responds His Highness is pleased
to welcome him !. His Highness
begs him to be seated 3. The Wis
itor sits :. His Highness 80"
He was met and approximately
detained by the Maharajah's min
lister Of state and four other irn-
portant members of the Council.
Silently cursing his luck, he did
his best to escape. But serviie
wretches In silken liveries fiung open
the door Of an anteroona.
Look here, Diwan sahib, I'd be
awfully glad to talk things over with
you now, but have urgent business
at the Residency."
"Oh, but Captain Norwood, we
could phone the Residency."
''That wouldn't help, Tn afraid.
Pm not expected there. / need the
Residents advice"
"Ah, but Captain Norwood, is not
our need greater? Documents, argu-
inents, some witnesses, are ready
now! His Highness has postponed
important business to be present. He
is waiting in the Council room.
This boundary dispute is SO urgent
and its implications so important,
that we feel our importantly is
justified. We beg you."
s'Oh, WE'LL"
Norwood could almost feel those
diamonds, burning him through the
lining Of his tunic pocket. Tension
crept into his normally easy man
ner. The ministers detected it. Ten
sion became mutual.
II hope you'n bear In mind I'm
in hurry.
Two cars started from Rundhia's
palace door within two minutes Of
each other. Having brought Run
dhia's nose-bleed under control, the
Bengal doctor drove away first, in
the smaller car, for professional
call on Aunty Harding. # he had

CHAPTER v11-Continued

-
When Lynn glanced at Rundhia
again, he had his back to the iron
chest and he was staring at her,
dark-eyed, not smiling -noticeably
not. Lynn accepted the unspoken
challenge:
Il am sorry let you kiss me this
morning. shouldn't have. II wasn't
fair. It may have given you a
wrong impression"
"The correct one being"
ooh, was just being mischiev-
Gus. 1t meant nothing" -
"No?" .
Rundhia eyed her for several sec
onds without speaking. She didn't
feel afraid Of him, but every fiber
in her being was aware Of crisis.
Stimulating calmness that she did
not feel, she, almost unconsciously
moved the tennis racket from one
hand to the other. n
Careful with that" he advised.
s'Put it down. You might break
something. Come over here and see
the emeralds.e $3.50
She did not put down the tennis
racket. That would have been ODE
dience. She was obeying no one. II
was not obedience that made her
walk toward him around the over
loaded table. She, was walking
straight into danger. She didn't de-
ceive herself about that for a mo-
ment. Neither did Rindhia try TO
deceive her. Passion, confident and
self-avowed, covered in his splen-
did eyes. They were more arrest
ing than the diamonds in the glass
case. He looked bold, experienced,
and much more rnascu1inely beauti-
full than any human being she had
ever met. She could feel her heart
pounding. And she felt as sure Of
herself as If she were about to
plunge into a warm inviting sea.
She didn't hesitate.
Lynn, / love you'll"
Weren't you going to show me
the emeralds?"
S Strange, how such tactics checked
him. He behaved as he did in the
garden the previous night when she
mentioned the British Resident and
Norwood. !. It seemed to make him
nervous-to remind him of some in
sufficiency within himself. He
glanced past her, at the eyehole in
the door, then turned and opened
the iron chest. He took out two
handfuls of huge emeralds.

pose, are like me. What is it about

dumped them back into the chest.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, April 18.-Bob
Wilson, veteran Washington welter-
weight, dropped split decision to
Vic Finazzo in a grueling 10-round
bout last night at Carlin's PARK
Referee Charley Baum voted for the
loser. Wilson scaled 151A to Finaz-
zo's 1451z pounds.
After amassing comfortable lead
In the first five rounds of the bout
Wilson tired badly in the seventh,
eighth and ninth, and the letdown
permitted Finazzo to make up much
of the lost ground. He had Wilson
groggy in the seventh, but couldn't
put him away.
Wilson rallied gamely in the tenth,
and this closing squirt gave him the
honors in the eyes Of many fans, but
the judges thought otherwise. It was
the third meeting between the pair,
and Finazzo's first victory in the
series.
Only one of three fighters from
the District emerged a winner, Joe

Lighter Glove Asked
For Boxing Bouts
In Washington
Mitten Now in Use Not
STANDARD, Turner Says
In Commission PIeu

Permission to use lighter, smaller
glove IN tomorrow nights bouts at
the Arena will be sought by Pro-
moter Joe Turner when that worthy
appears at the District Boxing Com
mission for the customary weighing
In ceremonies. And, although his
chances of obtaining the necessary
sanction are slim, the veteran sports
man feels that he has sufficient evil
dence to cause an Investigation of
the mitten situation.
He doesn't want a repetition of last
weeks delay of the Reddish Howell
fracas, the direct result of using the
wrong type gloves, in tomorrow's AL
Reid-Joey Silva bout.
Gloves Not Standard.
1t took Manager Jimmy White a
full 10 minutes to get q glove on
Howells left hand and almost caused
the substitution of an old pair.
Howell's hand was bandaged prop
erly, and the big fellows paw Ger
tainly was no larger than average,
but the glove simply didn't fit.
It isn't a standard glove, but
specially designed pillows made
necessary by the Bounce rule pre-
vailing in the District. Standard
gloves are made in 6-ounce weights.
1t isn't Turner's first experience
with bad gloves. He recalled the
Miller-Rodak fight, which was
dramatically interrupted by Pete
Reilly, Miller's manager, when he
climbed into the ring to protest
against a misshapen glove on
Rodak's hand.
Managers Protest.
Then there was the time Chris
Dundee accused George Abrams Of
getting smaller, better gloves than
those allotted Phil Fur. and an
other time when AL We'll baked
and almost refused to permit Joey
Archibald to fight because OF the
large gloves.
Turner wants the situation reme-
died, and feels that it is up to the
District commission to conduct an
investigation of the matter and
make the proper necessary adjust
ments.
