broken-down hack Of a newspaper
guy"
You fool" Natalie's voice cut
like a whiplash across his words.
You poor, blind fool! Oh, you
can't possibly mean that. You're
just excusing yourself. You're let
ting her go because you don't love
her" ,
Don't -" Donald's voice rode
high above hers, beating hers to ST.
lence. IF I don't love her, why is
1t like tearing the very heart out Of
my body to let her go?"
He seemed to hear his own voice
and it silenced him for a moment;
then he managed a faint grin and
made a little gesture with a hand
that was not too steady. Sorry to
go melodramatic on you" he apol-
ogized. II don't seem to be at my
best tonight, somehow"
That's because you love her, and
you're too stubborn to admit it,
and because Of some crazy thing
that men call pride and use to tor
ture the women who are fools
enough to love Them" said Natalie
savagely. IF what you're doing to
June-yes, and what Brooks is do
ing to me-is the mark Of what
you call self-respect, then I'd like
to meet a man who didn't have
any. And now-will you please get
out OF here? I've had just about
as much of your noble behavior as
] can take for n night"
Donald was white and his face
was stif with rage and surprise.
For a moment he stood there, hesi-
tant, as though about to say some+
thing more. And then he set his
jaw hard, turned, and stalked out
Natalie stood very still for a mo-
ment. the rapid rising and falling
of her breast stirring the soft chif-
fon and satin Of her garments.
Then, her mouth a set white line,
she turned off the last light and
went into the bedroom. Deliberate
ly, she closed and locked the door;
and her mouth curled In a little
sheer Of self-scorn. She had never
had to close the door against
Brooks in their brief, painful hon
eymoon, for Brooks had never so
much as come near that door. They

She could only sit there In her

was not Brooks - but Donald
Heath.
His face was taut and white be-
hind his sun-tan. His eyes we're
bitter, but when he spoke his voice
was casual, almost matter-of-fact,
as he said, Il thought you should
know that they've gone away to-

Donald made a little sound half

he began, annoyed.
Il saw them on the beach this
afternoon" said Natalie, her eyes
wide and sick, as though she had
been dealt a blow whose pain was
almost beyond endurance. She
was crying. Brooks had her in
his arms, trying to comfort her
and he-kissed her"
Il don't know what that meant,

June loves ME. Nobody in the
world could possibly convince me
Of anything else"
You're that sure she loves you
and yet you're breaking up your
marriage and sending her to Holly

Donald's jaw set hard and he
said grimly, Il have no right to

told herself she was a fool to have

cause Brooks wasn't sitting here

She went In, switching on the
lights, assuring herself that he

darling! He had been upset by that
Fcene with the newspaper men.
Then she remembered the scene on

hrms about June and kissed her,
nd she set her teeth hard.
She stood very still there In the
pretty. colorful room, while her
memory went back to the day
Hhen she and Brooks had talked
bout love. Brooks had been

belief In such a thing. "Well-may-

You lied, too-remember? You

She tried to manage a laugh,

The major excellence of Cook
Book is the success of its authors
In proving that. after all, Cook is
not altogether inimitable. Brady's
mimicry of the wandering, Wordy
comedian is a thing of more than
mere voice and gesture. He and
his co-author, Kerr, have caught
the elusive quality of Cooks wit in
every phase of their long, possibly
too long, musical play. OF Joe's own
material, they make use of three
of his classic deliriumS, the baseball,
four Hawaiian stories most effec-
lively. The remainder of the eX-
panSive opus is entirely of new COIN
age and impressively exact in the
reproduction.

sound premise that the theater has
no more lovable figure than the
little man whose sense OF humor

the finest gifts of their kind in the

thusiaSm that seems to be the
particular province only of college
comedians, singers and dancers
1t is a spirit that makes not merely
excellence of entertainment, but a
performance that is worthy tribute
