If that were true, it would make

looked happier. Linda took long

and brushed her hair until II
snapped with electricity.
Then she slipped into a woolly
violet robe and her violet mules
and stepped through the balcony
window. The rain was stopping anu
only a wet wind blew through the
garden. Dawn was coming, and the
chimes of the monastery bells
called to prayers. Through the
windows she could see dark-robed

Maybe while she watched the

FOR THE fraction of a second
Mina's eyes were amazed as she
saw Robert Barton and Linda
standing at the door of the Acker-
man apartment.
There was hatred in the glance
and something that was reminis-
cent Of fear. She opened the door
wider, though, and asked them to
come in.
1--WE want to see Miss Acker-
man, Miss Sue Alderman" Robert
said quite formally. Miss Avery
wishes to offer her coincidence"
Certainly! Won't you sit down ?"
Questions were spinning through
Linda's brain. What was Nina
Nevins doing at this apartment, far
uptown in The Bronx, at this hour?
Did she know these people? Had
the sister sent for her?
"Sue will be here in a moment"
Nina said, and reached for ciga-
ret. Robert sprang to his feet to
light it for her and she studied his
face as she cupped her hands
around the match. $50 I wasn't so
far wrong in my surmises that you
and Miss Avery are fond of each
other?" she asked coolly.
'Mr. Stafford was detained, so
I offered to come as an escort"
Robert answered.
Detained? Surely not by the po-
lice" Her laughter was low and
frightening.
What are you doing here,
Nina" Rob asked.
"Sue is an old friend OF mine.
We knew each other in Hollywood.
When I heard what had happened,
of course I came out. She sent for
me, in fact"
II heard your program tonight.
That is, heard part of it, Miss
Nevins," Linda said, because she
could not sit there so quietly while
the day ran into morning. Clara
bell loved your voice. I didn't know
she knew you, but now I under
stand"
1--WE never had met. It is Sue
know"
The older sister came into the
room then. Her face was white and
drawn, but her eyes held poise.
She did not take Linda's proffered
hand, but sank down on a divan.
$50 you are the girl who escaped
the bullets because you gave my
sister your desk?" she asked in a
low, husky voice.
I'm so sorry, Miss Alderman,
but she asked for my desk"
"You shouldn't be sorry. Other
wise you would have got the bull
lets. The-murderer might have
waited around for you"
But it's so terr;ble!"
$50 is life, my dear! You're just
learning. Other people get the
breaks. The May-time baskets are
hung at somebody's else door. The
parade goes down another street.
Don't ever think it doesn't" Her
voice was bitter with Illustration
and worry and anger.
But your sister"
"I know. She was all had, and
I loved her. She-she never had
q chance to even dream how nice
life could be if you drew a lucky
number" Then the hardness broke
and her eyes were as scared as
ehild's.
Someone is coming for me soon,
DO I can see her. She's at the under
takers now. She's-dead."
!. All the way down the street
Linda remembered the woman's
shattered armor. She thought, too,
OF something else and voiced her
thought to Robert.

would not have wanted to be in

The most important thing in
bowling is the delivery and
urge you to concentrate on per-
fecting a smooth, rhythmic form,
You should assume a comfortable
position with. the ball supported
by both hands about waist high.
Raise the ball es you start to
walk with the right foot forward.
On the next step the ball. should
be on its way down and ready to
start the backswing. Make the
backswing long because this
makes for rhythm. Swinging
down you are now ready to re-
lease the ball and to acquire the
maximum power and accuracy
with the least effort. The ball
should be released as you slide
on your LETT foot. Your right leg
should automatically kick back
ward and you should follow
through.

DIAMOND GLEANINGS

SOFTBALL has faded out of
the sports picture in Key West,
and, from all accounts, it seems
baseball is headed for the same
fate. Only two clubs of the Is
land City Leagues roster of five
teams are active at present. One,
the Key West Conchs, are ac-
knowledged the strongest nine of
the city. It will be no fun for
fans to attend games knowing
beforehand which club will win.
Of course, anything can happen
in ball game and the Pirates
may come out victorious once in
while, but the odds favor the
Conchs.
