CHAPTER FIVE


The days and weeks rolled by.
Christmas came, green and slori-
ously warm. Kay sent a package
home.
Ties for her fathe., a purse for
Mable, toys for the babies.
To Marie she sent a rhinestone
pin in the shape of a bow knot.
She had a little tree in ner
apartment and a wreath in each
window.
On Christmas she roasted
small turkey in her oven and in
vited Claire and Ted and young
newspaper man named Charles.
She danced every night during
the holiday week and Charles took
her to the beautiful rose parade
and football game on New Years
day.

As the days passed she religious
~ haunted the employment agen-
cies. Nothing turned up. but she
could not make herself fret.
She was keeping within her bud
get, or nearly so, and there were
many months to 60. And she was
having a wonderful time.
Almost every night she and
Claire with Ted and somebody
or other, danced or dined or drove
or saw a picture. To Kay her
escorts were more or less alike.
She was impressed by none of
them although several fought val
iantly to make an impression.
One or two of them had to be
put in his place. generally speak
ing they were simply escorts.
Kay was popular, there was al
ways someone for Sunday at the
beach or the mountains.
They saw the Kellogg horse
show. dined at Chapel Inn. seated
in little old fashioned pews with
huge guttering candles for light,
they went through the Riverside
Mission and ate quantities at Bit
o. Sweden, they danced at the
Trocadero.
Ted was attentive to Claire but
she admitted that he was entirely
to- casual.
Unconsciously Waits
II was fun, 1t was wonderful,
but Kay unconsciously waited. On
the street her eyes constantly
watched for one figure.
Often her heart jumped into her
throat only to drop back sickcn-
ingly.
She did not say to herself, I'm
in love with Larry Corbet."
She didn't even think it.
But. somewhere in the back OF
her mind was a vague dream.
Vague, APPS, but clear
enough. compelling enough &c

Once she saw Larry. II was

one eye. saw Larry alight from q
purring limousine and turn TO as

She may have been beautiful

Kay actually did not see her.

Larry had passed from sight.
Kay was alone that night. She

The convention today completed
arguments on resolutions after

Among the provisions in 4 reso-
luton were those contending that
convicted sex offenders should not
be paroled; that parole violators
should not be housed where there
are children: that sex offenders
should be examined by psychia-
rists: and that such felony cases
BE- assigned to one judge.
Aggressors
Dear Miss Grey: Recently a.
correspondent made the assertion
through your column that all men
were aggressors in the business Of
love making. She went so far as
TO say that all women were inno-
cent victims of aggressive males.

man and having had my share OF
experience with love hungry fe-
males, would say that this 10 a

aggressive than women. In fact,
women are the aggrcssors in the

10 disguise their methods by their

Taxi Insurance Case
Rehearing May Be Asked

Assistant Corporation Counsel
Lloyd Harrison said today he has
under consideration drawing up a
motion seeking a rehearing before
the Court of Appeals of the recent
Hutchins case in connection with
taxicab insurance.
The court recently ruled that Dis
trict Supt. of Insurance j. Balch
Moor was without authority under
the Taxicab Act to issue regulations
concerning the reserve and surplus
requirements for mutual taxicab in
surance companies.
At the same time 1t was learned
that the corporation counsel's ofnce
proposes to draw up regulations
amending the present Taxicab Act
in case the motion for a rehearing
is not filed or denied.
Mr.. Harrison said the court had
narrowed the meaning of the terms
writing taxicab insurance" He said
there was precedence to show that
writing insurance meant the whole
business of insurance. In addition,
he pointed out, the question of just
what is writing insurance was never
argued before the Court of Appeals.
Mr.. Harrison said he thought that
in the absence of ambiguity in the
statute there was no room for con-
struction. He said he thought there
was no ambiguity in the law.

0ccoquan Uprising
Ends in 10 Being
Confined 10 Cells
Prisoners Surround
Guard Leading Another
Convict, 1t Is Revealed

An uprising by prisoners at Occc-
guam Reformatory resulted in 10 of
the convicts being confined to cells
today.
The uprising occurred shortly
after noon yesterday and was said
by Supt. of District Penal Institu-
tions Ray L. Huff to be not of
serious nature. Mr.. Huff made a re-
port to Director of Public Welfare
Elwood Street on the incident today.
The report stated that trouble
started when one of the guards was
leading an unruly prisoner to his
quarters yesterday. Other prisoners
surrounded the guard, protesting
the action.
After some pickering all men in
the group were ordered rounded up.
About 10 men, as result. were
placed under closer custody" it
was stated Paul L. Kirby, assistant
to Mr.. Street, said this meant they
were locked up in individual cells in
a prison dormitory.
All prisoners in the reformatory
were then assembled by squads, it
was stated, and given a lecture on
prison regulations. Mr.. Huff ex-
planned he considered the incident
minor affair but was making a
report presumably because the as
sembling of the population will
cause questions to be raised, as to
the extent of the disorder"
The report continued:
The situation Is in good control
and further difficulty is not antici-
pated."
