to Vince. In spite Of herself, her
hands were trembling.
We've heard enough she said.
"You keep an eye on the barge,

Stanley.
Right" Vince replied.
They'd taken but two short
crawling steps toward the side of
the barge, when Vince caught Kay
by the shoulder. "Wait!" he said.
Somebody's comm aboard"
Kay slid farther back into the
shadows of a pile of boxes and
bales. Vince followed her. Quick,
heavy footsteps sounded along the
barge's deck. A short, stocky fig
ure loomed out of the darkness
quickly disappearing down the
companionway. A door opened and
closed. The spy captains voice
snapped an order.

William CASTOR, North Carolina
jurist and statesman, who was the
first student to enter Georgetown
College when it was founded. The
Ashley M. Gould Club was named
after Justice Gould of the former
District Supreme Court, who served
many years on the Georgetown law
faculty.

usually taken for granted, I like its
friendliness and deep-rooted cour-

confident, is the best in the United

stores as considerate of the stranger.
