Helen "And for posterity."
-Humph!" said Miss Minerva

the Miller family is concerned" She
gave Helen a searching look. Have
you definitely decided to be another
Miller old maid?"
"Of course I haven't"
With this parting remark-which
had in 1t a touch Of cruelty-Miss
Minerva departed.
Helen frowned. And as she
opened her desk drawer for a mir

she wished to high heaven her
aunt would stop talking about old
maids and spinsters. It was so
darned depressing. And she had
troubles and worries enough with

Election very infinitely, and felt no

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
THERE WE'RE many times dur
ing the busy days there in Lakeville
when Helen wished with all her
heart that she could do just what
she had said to Philip-marry him
Immediately. But always there was
Paul, and all that he had meant to
her-there was always the feeling
that she could not be sure Of happi-
ness with one man until she had
cured herself entirely Of the other
one.
Then would come the question:
How can you cure yourself Of Paul
when you keep on seeing him? To
this she could find no answer. And
then another question would come
Would you honestly want to go on
seeing Paul II he didn't have the
plane, and IL you didn't have a pas
sion for flying? There was no an
swer to that one, either. Though
sometimes she almost convinced
herself that she could gradually put
Paul out Of her life-break away
completely from the charming
companionshlp he offered her-if
his interests were centered on the
plantation alone. There were times,
even, when she accused herself of
acting more like a 17-year-old girl
than a woman who would soon
be 27.
But however she might view the
problem-the problem Of herself,
Paul and Philip-she felt uncertain,
disturbed. 1t was one Of those up
setting situations that might go on
for years and years, remaining
more or less static. That is, unless
she did something. And the more
she thought about 1t, the more con-
fident she became that 1t was up to
her, and to no one else.
She was thinking along those
lines-and not at all happy-on the
morning her aunt came hurrying
into the outer Office. She was waiv-
ing a sheet of paper and her face
was flushed with excitement.
ITS come% she cried. Were
going to get it,"
Get what Aunt Minerva ?"
Helen asked.
"The Army and Navy award, Of
course. The coveted e."
"Oh, that's wonderful"
Miss Minerva handed her the
communication. II was from WASH
ington. II said the Miller plant de-
served recognition for its splendid
accomplishments, and that upon a
date to be named later there would
be a presentation OF the 'E" award
for excellence. The writer thanked
Miss Minerva, as owner OF the
plant, for her magnificent patriot
ism, and warmly congratulated her.
"Now," said Helen, you can go
right out and buy that frockw
And get new kind Of hair-do,"
Miss Minerva added. ITO say moth
ing OF getting Philip to help me
plan what to say" She held out her
hand. "Give me that letter, Helen.
I've got to run downstairs and tell
him the news. He deserves as much
credit as I do"
I'm call up Paul, too, and tell
him." said Helen"
''Why?" Miss Minerva demand

Bierman Plans for As

By the Associated Press.

MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 24.-Bernie
Bierman has begun preparations for
the 1945 football season at the Uni
versity of Minnesota, but his eye
really is on the postwar future.
Oficially in charge again after
nearly three years of duty with the
marines, the man regarded by many
as the top coach of the Nation when
he left his post early in 1912 refused
to be either optimistic or pessimistic
about the coming season.
"We don't even know who will be
here this fall" he said.
But after the war, provided 1t
doesn't last too long, I look for a
real upswing-more football and
better football.
Considering the number of II and
18 year olds on squads, the colleges
have done a remarkable job during
the war. But after the war, well
have normal flow of high school
players again, plus returning vet
Grams. And we'll have more football
because people miss good football

released from duty in October, is

1t is question that must go un-

nament program for 1945 was the
best in the organization history a
few weeks ago.
Golf, in all its phases, was re-
sponsible for the sale of millions OF
dollars in War Bonds lst year In
addition, veterans at rehabilitation
centers benefited through large
funds raised from tournaments and
exhibitions.
| And and even larger program was
planned for the coming campaign
Then came War Mobilization Di-
rector James F. Byrnes' request that
closed down race tracks. That was
followed by re-examination of the
4-F athletes.
Pending developments, the PGA
intends to 60 ahead with its pro-
gram.
Ed Dudley, PGA president, says
that every tournament assigned by
us this year must be played for
some war charity and with War
Bonds as the prizes. We are dedi-
eating our l945 program to the idea
of providing funds to construct a
pitch and putt course at every large
war rehabilitation center in the
