SYNOPSIS

THE CHARAC1Eho:
LINDA AVERY, receptionist at a
New York models agency, starts
to rebuild her romance with
RONALD STAFFORD, her child
hood sweetheart, who has just
'swung his way to fame on a
trumpet" but
SARAH MARKLEY, wealthy gla-
NOR girl, is trying to capture
Ronald for herself. Meanwhile
ROBERT BARTON, young engi-
neer, strikes up a friendship with
Linda. He introduces her to
TERRY ADAMS, publicity man,
and Terry's sweetheart,
CAROLINE PICKARD, who has
been unable to find work. Life
is complicated by
NINA NEVINS, a famous actress,
who is determined to marry Rob-
ert. She believes Linda is ro-
mancing with the y 6 engl-
neer.
YESTERDAY: Caroline tells Lin
.da that Terry has been paying
but slight attention to her for
the last month, being entirely
taken up with Nina Nevins, for
whom he is doing public rela-
tons work. Linda meets Rob,
who is going on Sarah's yacht
party also, and as they sit at
a table they see Nina getting
up from a table nearby.

Sarah came to meet her. For a
brief moment Linda acknowledged
Sarah's beauty. There were yards,
even miles, of silver-threaded chit
fon in the gown she wore. Linda
became aware that her green frock
had been reduced drastically and
even at that she had been COM
PEELED to have it dry cleaned before
she could wear it. Still, it had been
beautiful and expensive once and 1t
could join the party bravely to-
night.
"You did come" Sarah said soft
ly. IT was afraid you wouldn't. I
was quite beastly to you once, you
know. I'm sorry" She smiled, her
eyes meeting Linda's %squarely.
1--WE forgotten all about that
night and I think I had left my
manners at home, too. I'm glad
you asked me to come on the par
ty."
Linda spoke the words slowly,
her eyes probing the other girls.
Sarah was arrogant and proud and
defiant. Unless she had changed
very much she was merely at
tempting a role for a purpose to-
night. That Linda knew.
Now Sarah put her firm white
hand on Linda's arm and turned
her toward Ronald. "There he is
over there, scared to death for fear
a beautiful model upset the works
at your office and you didn't get
here. Better put his mind at ease"
All through the evening Linda
had a sense of adventure. All an
chors were lifted. The moorings
were gone. The tall white boat,
banners flying and lights shining,
was winging its way swiftly to
anywhere.
Once she was near Rob when
Nina passed. He smiled and men,
toned having seen her that after
noon. Mina's eyes contracted. But
I haven't been in that place for
days. she said.
Lets STROLL" Rob said, and led
her out on deck. "Do you know,
wild sea lions ould MT have
dragged me on this shindig in spite
of Sarah and Billie Anne's friend

order to fill the spaces of silence
with words, she said: DO you like
Billie Anne a lot, Rob?"
He smiled a second before an
swering: "She does nicely. And I
have had to look after her so much,
you see."
Then she forgot about the girl
whose picture was in Rob's wallet,
for they were at the yacht club
and attendants were hurrying to
gather their luggage and ia k e
them to the wharf where a small
boat would convey them to the
yacht that waited for them.
Sounds of laughter and music
came from it as the ferry chugged
across the water. More w~hite-coat-
ed attendants were on hand to re-
ceive the newcomers and escort
them to their cabins. Linda sat
down and drew a deep breath when
she reached hers. Its ivory and
blue satin furnishings were finer
than those of any cabin on any
ocean liner she had zen Pale
pink roses nodded in crystal vases
and a small radio was sending a
gentle stream of music into the
room. Before she had finished
dressing Linda heard the motors
turning and caught the rhythmic
vibration of a ship in motion. They
were going, which must mean that
everyone, including Ronald, was
on board.
She glanced out of a portfolio
and saw the lighted clubhouse, the
boats that waited an anchor drift
ing past. She dressed quickly in a
pale green frock, stepped into sill
yer sandals, and fastened a wide
silver girdle at her waist. She did
not think she would need a wrap,
but she picked up the gray-green
cape whose color was as varied as
a sea in storm and carried it with
her.
The boat was going fast. Much
faster than a boat usually went
when it had nothing more impor-
tant to do than cruise around on
home waters for a weekend, she
thought as she moved toward the
lounge. Apparently the party was
in full swing. Voices and laughter
and fell with the waves.
The Wilmington morning star., 1940-09-07

Linda did not turn her head as
Rob mentioned the fact that Nina
Nevins was leaving the room in
which they were listening to Span
ish Warblers and slipping C d
drinks. But as the actress passed
she glanced straight at Rob. Her
eyes held no flicker of recognition.
They we're cold, SO cold they were
dead and frightening, Lima told
herself.
IAN act" Rob said, when the
haunting, Elusive perfume TT a t
trailed her had blown away. by
the way, what is that stuff? Sarah
uses it, too. I don't like it."
Outside the club he bought three
%gardenias from a flower woman
and Linda pinned them against the
black neck of her frock. His car
was waiting and Linda observed
its long, strong lines.
New" she asked, seating her.
self luxuriously.
II needed one, with S u m m e r
coming. This upstate job keeps me
committing between two places.
We're trying to build a bridge
where a bridge hasn't any right to
be. But it's going through. Maybe
you'll use it some day."
Maybe she would. Maybe she and
Ronald would own a al and go
down the long. white roads of the
land.
Tell me when Billie Anne comes
and let me take her to lunch," she
offered. SIS she pretty?"
II think so, but I'm p%rejudiced."
He pulled out his wallet and ex-
tracted a few pictures from it.
"She's the one with the tumbled
hair and the big eyes. The other
girls with her r my sisters"
Far up the river road the Wash
ington bridge hung in the sky like
a slim, silver arc. An early star
slipped through the sky and trem-
bled just above it. The world was
still. No sounds, no voices, no
laughter.
Linda had forgotten that o n e
night Rob had kissed her. The
memory had not come back after
the first few days. But now it re-
turned, poignant and real, and sud-
denly she didn't want this girl with
the flying hair and the laughing
eyes to come too soon. She knew
she was being ridiculous. She loved
Ronald. But she was afraid
AS the car glided the miles to
the yacht club where the boat
waited she tried to think fairly.
Ronnie loved her and she loved
him. But she needed proof of her
own desirability to help her under
stand that Ronnie cared. But why?
Ronald leaned against her love,
never doubling. Why couldn't she
have the same faith?
Not because she cared, but in
