AS the lend-lease program set

secure all possible data on planes
and weather through a chain of
reporting posts. Darwin was IN

later rebelled.
Carole Fiske had appealed 10

speakeasy and VAS amazed To
see Darwin Lomoy alp in after

shadowing them without seeing
Dexel on the same mission.
In his confession Dexel stated
that Darwin could not have been

he saw two figures whom he
identified as Darwin and Flske--
struggling against the drawn

The rest Dawson knew already.
Darwin had run from the speak
easy into the arms Of a constable.
On him was found the gun that
had killed the two. and the Off
Gals wallet In face Of other dis
closures IL was evident TO Dawson
that Darwin had intended return
ing the plans 10 the ferry COM
mand. and that he pocketed the
gun which pexel had given Fiske
to clear Caroles brother Of n

CHAPTER Mi
BY A. w. O'eRIEN

The three days after Csrols
Fiske's escape to st. Johns were
the longest Clyde Dawson had
ever known. The eastern air
command had told him that q
blizzard was rolling in over north
eastern Newfoundland and II was
already "cctling zero" at the air
port, where he must land. The
last boat for three days had sailed
that morning from North Sydney
for Port-aux-Basques. TO connect
with the Newfoundland railway.
Shortly after $50 in the morn
ing Of the fourth day. the tele-
phone awakened Dawson. An
eastern air command officer an
formed him crisply that the
weather was clearing and a plane
would be ready to take off at
dawn.
BY noon Dawson was interview
ing the veteran captain in COM
mand of the st. Johns port.
The officers face WAS grim.
The Fort Glengarry was tor
pedoed off Cape Race. Newfound-
land, two nights ago"
Dawson grasped the arms of his
chair, his knuckles showing white.
Are there any survivors re-
ported >" His voice sounded
strange TO his own ears.
Yes. but not many. There was
only one woman, in fact-a ma
jors wife en- route to join her
husband here"
A numbing sensation Of tragedy
enveloped Dawson as he rose, with
a mumbled word Of thanks, and
left the office. Life has a strange
way of Intervening human hearts,
he thought. as he made his way
along the street.
II only he had revealed his iden-
tity sooner, Carole Fiske would
not have continued to Newfound-
land on her pathetic search for
Darwin Lemoy and her brother.
II was useless for Dawson 10 ar
que that Carole's actions had left
him no other choice than TO regard
her as an enemy agent. Somehow,
he should have CLEANED some Ink
ling Of the facts before Paul Dexel.
in his confession, had disclosed
that Bernard Skrol-really Bern
ard Fiske-was Carole's brother
and the Dexels were her half
brothers.
The mother wss German and
had married twice. Her first hus-
band, father OF the Dexels. had
died shortly after coming 10 the
United States from Germany. Her
second husband, Fiske. was of
Germsn-American stock.
The two Dexel boys and Ber-
nard Fiske had become enthusiast
tic bund members in Chicago.
With the outbreak Of the war
abroad. the girl repeatedly pro-
tested to them about their con-
/ tinuing bund activities. When her
brother Bernard enlisted and went
TO Newfoundland her letters 10
aim were returned. and she SUE
pected he had enlisted undef q
false name. That was the reason
she had not been notified Of MS
death.
The Dexels were certain shs
would not betray them 70 the
authorities for two reasons. One
was that she would incnminat'
her brother. But a stin better
reason vas Darwin Lemoy.
she had met Darwin while n
was stu a college student IN Chi
ezgo. There were Advanced Think
er groups formed IN college circles
as a part Of nszi strategy, and
Darwin had been enticed into at
tending the one organized BY th'
Dexels.
Darwin and carole Flske grew
( friendly. In those careless day

nazi views didn't affect their re.

 When asked why she gave up the possibility of winning two spade tricks, Miss sherman ex- plained, "If I take the first spade, about the only chance of making the hand is to win the diamond finesse. That is Q 50 per cent chg nee. But if I ball East out of spades before giving up the ace. can double -finesse the hearts to- ward him.
