With these shots. and maybe few

SO far in the season both the
Bulldogs from CaleXico and the
Spartan warriors from the county
seat nave clicked off three wins
apiece against teams that were
weaker both in material and eXpe-
riencc. The BULLDOGS flount victor
les over Imperial. Calipatria and
Brawley. Ell Centro points to tri-
unphs over HoltVille, Imperial and
Calipdtrla.
Most sclf-styled experts refuse
to 20 out on limb and pick a VIM
ner for Friday nights game. How
ever few are of the opinion that
CaleXico. because of form shown
in recent wins will have an edge
The Bulldogs have rolled over even
the mighty junior college team from
Fl Centre in a practice tilt.
But the Spartans mustn't be sold

Halle come to our cottage, but my
happiness and my son would only
remind her too poignantly Of her
own misery. But wait, have an
idea. III talk to Sue ANDERSON"
And so three days later Sue
pulled up outside the Adams house
in her station wagon.
She said, "Ill take no protests,
Halle. I've found the most beauti-
full shack in the world for painting
It's on the rockbound coast OF
Maine, and mean rockbound! l
can't paint and cook at the same
time. and I'm going crazy for. the
want Of someone to talk to-"
Il wouldn't be much USE" Halle
protested feebly.
That's what you think. Come
along and see"
Sues place was a shack, but II
had a big stone hearth and mat
tresses Of pine boughs. II had
woods in back Of it and the cold
sparkling waters Of the bay in
front. There was nothing to see and
nothing to do that reminded Halle
Of what had Just been-except the
awful hollow in her heart.
Sue said they acted like a cou-
pie Of Boy Scouts" But the fishing
in streams and bay, the meals
cooked outdoors. the long hikes, the
fragrant sleep-drenched nights
brought life back to Halle. The
pinched look went away from her
nostrils. The hollows in her cheeks
filled out. Her limbs hardened from
exercise and she found that antici-
patton still ran through her veins
She cooked and washed the
dishes. made up their hunks, read
to Sue while Sue painted, played in
telligence games with Sue at night
and wished that their life like that
might go on forever.
Sue said. I've always avoided
holidays with danes. Women Just
don't wear well ON each others
nerves. Butt you're tops. Halle
This has been swell"
Halle licked apple pie from her
fingertips. She said, sue, I've been
thinking. You're not going back TO
your old studio this year. are you?"
Sue said. mo. I'm getting tired
Of living with my work I thought
I'd take an apartment and hire a
studio outside somewhere. Why"
Halle sid. There are two bed
rooms in my house in Stuyvesant
square"
Il know that, but you're not TAX

I'll tell you all about It when the
baby gets we'll"
Halle didn't say anything for a
long time and then, tonelessly, she
said, 1.-THE baby isn't going to get
well. If l could only breath life into
her again :" Her voice broke.
Win turned away blindly from
the door.
Eric ran his fingers through his
hair I'm going outside for a
smoke he mumbled.
No one stopped him. Minerva
spoke not one word to him.
1t was o'clock that morning
when the fame flickered out. The
baby gave tiny sigh and the light
was eXtinguished forever.
Halle knew. 1t was as If her own
heart gave that gentle sigh and
then died.
Eric and Win stood beside her.
Eric put his hands over his face
and his shoulders moved with a
deep sob.
But Win lifted the stricken
mother and said gently. Come,
Halle. I'm going to give you some
thing to make you sleep"
Halle didn't cry. She lay In the
big bed and looked at the ceiling,
all life drained out Of her. Days
and nights. sunshine and storms,
they came and passed and she
seemed not to know it.
The funeral was over and Eric
had to get back TO his new job
Halle, you just take it easy for
a few days. You'd better stay here
I've got to get back. I'm flying out
to Arizona, but I'll be back in ten
days. I'll come and get you"
Halle said I'm not going
back"
Good! It's much better for you
to stay here until you feel like fac
ing things"
There isn't anything 10 face"
she said in the strange toneless way
in which she had spoken since the
baby died.
"Of course there isn't. You stay
around here with Minerva to look
after you. It's pretty hot In New
York anyway"
Halle looked at him with mild
surprise. Eric didn't understand.
but she couldn't make the effort so
that he would.
II was Win who knew that II
was wrong for Halle to stay on In
East Lynbrook. Some instinct told
him that II was wrong for her to
stay where every blade Of grass.
every falling tree shadow would re-
mind her Of the days she had spent
there with the baby.
Halle had to 60 away. Win
would have taken her to the noun
tains. to the seashore, IL he had
dared suggest II. But that was
Erics place and Eric would never
know what his place was.
Win talked to Louise Fennell on

CHAPTER FORTY FIVE

THERE WAS a baby specialist
from Boston. Win had sent for him.
There was a trained nurse. There
were Win and Minerva moving 81
lently. anXiously about the house.
The telephone bell was mufled,
footsteps on tip-toes echoed loudly
through the halls of the house
where a tiny flame Of life fiickered
in desperate struggle for survival.
In the bedroom that seemed so
disproportionately huge to house
the little crib where Letitia lay,
Halle sat hour after hour, with her
heart in her eyes and a desperate
prayer in her heart
Sometimes she dozed from sheer
fatigue and the nurse led her, half
asleep to a couch, and covered her
with a blanket. Minerva called
upon all her skill to prepare the
trays that Halle sent away scarce
ly tasted.
The baby had pneumonia.
The terrible disease was an i'm.
placable enemy. advancing step by
step. and there were no warriors to
resist in the little body that had
never been strong. Medical skill,
prayer, and love fought The enemy
with all its meager powers, but its
shadows vas crushingly near.
Winthrop Adams heart ached
with the wish to comfort Halle,
but she lived now within the shell
of her terrible expectancy and II
was beyond human power to reach
and comfort her.
The frustrated wish gave rise to
anger. Win would have gladly
thrashed Eric into the mold of what
he should have been.
If Win had dared, he would have
brought Hallie's tired head to rest
against his comforting shoulder
But that was Eric's place, and Eric
was flying to Honduras. And Win
blamed himself for that He had
somehow failed.
And then Eric came back, arriv-
ing calmly in the middle OF the
night, saying. is the baby okay ?"
Fury made Wins face gray.
you young FOOL" he said. "Hallie's
been through hell while you've been
on a holiday Your child is dying
It's got one chance in a million Of
pulling through. You'd better get
a pretty good story ready for Hal
lie"
Same old Win, aren't you
Winding my business. Ill know
what to tell Halle"
But when Eric saw her. saw the
waXen form OF the baby, he could
only touch Hallies hand and say.
Honest honey. l didn't know 1t
was this bad"
Halle looked a him with no IN
terest and she said nothing. Her
tortured glance went back to the
baby.
