was just polite. The man was
abashed; but he rarely gave up,
once he had started.
"Claudette Colbert just went in,"
he said with hint of stubbornness
in his soft voice.

girl, thinly sarcastic.

His mouth challenged her not to be-

And I'm Greta Garbo," she
jeered.
He laughed. There was no resist
ing that laugh. Perhaps it was the
night-the beautiful California
night with its elusive smell of hon.
eysockle and fresh magnolia. 1t had
been a hot day, but now 1t was cool,
and the stars were crisply white in

him. And then seemed to realize
how close they were to each other.

She squirmed a fraction Of an inch

You're an actor?" Her voice was

He smiled, mo, I wouldn't know
how to be an actor" He paused,
waiting for her to say something
else. But she was silent. He cleared
his throat. When a star has to
crash a car, Ter, I do it for him.
If he has to fall off a horse-thats
where I come in. I'm q stuntman.
It's nice work-when you can get it."
1t was his longest speech in days,
and he was suddenly shy. He looked
at her sideways, not quite daring to
brave her open regard. He fumbled
in his coat pocket and brought out
small bag of tobacco. "Cigarette?"
he offered her the bag, and smiled
when she said crisply:

I'm Bruce Nolan" he repeated
He took her unresisting hand and
solemnly shook it up and down

startled.
I'm glad to know you," continued
the man solemnly. She liked the dry
warmth Of his hand. But you didn't
60 around shaking hands with men
you didn't know. She must stop this
right now. But how? It was hard
to upstage a man when you were
almost in his lap.
Dye live near here?" he asked
her after another pause
The animation drained from her
face. She turned sharply away from
him.
Il see," he said sympathetically,
Il don't think you do," she told
him over her shoulder.
He scrutinized the girl. She wore
a thin blue coat. It was open to
show a blue and white print dress.
He could just family see the curves
of her soft. slender figure. He was
glad she had the good sense to dis
pense With hat. He hated women's
hats. But for this girl, it would be
crime to wear one.
She had the most beautiful hair he
had ever seen. 1t was parted in the
middle. with waves falling to her
shoulders in masses of SOFTLY tangled
curls. She had the tender milky
white skin that sometimes goes with
light auburn hair. Would she be
angry if he touched it? Her clear
eyes were neither blue nor gray, but
a mixture of both. He Judged her
to be II. He was wrong by a year.
She was 18. Then a fat woman in
front of him tainted, and he forgot
the girl.
1t was a new thrill for the crowd.
Get back to your seats" Bruce
commanded. He shouldered the
gawkers away, put his weight behind
the inert woman and gently pro-
PEELED her. He was followed by
bewildered little man who semed
to belong to the fat woman.
"Oh, dear, oh. DEAR" murmured
the little man. Its all my fault"
GO to the drug store on the cor
ner." Bruce cut him short. Get
some brandy" The little man stared
without moving. Here's some
money" Bruce pulled out SIS bill
from his pocket. But the fat woman
was regaining consciousness.
What? Where?" Her head tee
tered grotesquely from side to side,
while her eyes painfully took in the
scene Suddenly she became furious
with the little man. We've lost our
place." she screamed
Bruce slipped away. grinning at
her abuse He searched among the
sea of heads for the girl with the
lovely hair. But she had vanished.
Darn it," he muttered softly. He
would like to know her story. Was
she one of the thousands of film
struck girls who come every year to
Los Angeles following the vain will
o'-the-wisp of stardom? And get
job as a waitress-if they're lucky?
He wished-but what was the use
of wishing? She was gone, and the
chances of seeing her again were
one in 10000. He was suddenly
annoyed by the clamor, bright lights
and dreamlike pageantry. He jam
med his soft felt hat over his eyes.
And went home.

Roosevelt Champs
Tackle Torrid Foe
In SeriesS Start
Western High Held Good
Match for Rider Five:
Wilson, Tech ToneIe

A big test right at the start faced
Roosevelt's defending champions in
the high school series this after
noon as they tangled with a hot
Western quint in one of two games
at Tech gym moved up from to-
night. Changing the night double
headers into daylight affairs was
done as a wartime precaution. In
the opener Of today's games, Wilson
was to meet Tech.
Western was the only interhigh
series team to top Roosevelt last
year as the latter swept to its second
consecutive title. 1t is conceded a
good chance of winning again.
With Jim Karas and Donny Cross
heading veteran team, the Raiders
on paper can match Roosevelt's
lineup that includes Charley How
ard, Frank Redinger and George
Robertson as its experienced hold
overs.
Championship competition also
was listed for two nearby Virginia
quints today with George Washing
ton of Alexandria and Washington
Lee Of Ballston travelling south in
their initial engagements in the
Virginia class A Conference. The
Presidents tonight meet Thomas
Jefferson in Richmond, with the
Generals opening against Hopewell
High. They will trade opponents to-
morrow night.
