He reused himself long enough
to feed another handful of frozen
twlgs into the stove. "Of course, we
really don't need this tent to get
by. he went on. "It's just an
added comfort l allow myself
nowadays. You might call it pam
dering to my old age"
l wondered how anyone could
possibly live in such a night with
out a tent. Charlie soon enlight-
ened me. "If we was to pile all our
dogs into that hole you cut for
the willows, then crawl in amongst
them. l reckon we'd come through
all right. Even a night like this"
NHARLIE stretched his arms in
comfort. rubbed his nose, showed
more brush in the stove. He had
just finished when a frigid blast
bored under the tent. The canvas
bellied out like a balloon, straining
at its lines until it seemed it must
MP loose from its moorings. The
stovepipe buckled. Ashes and
smoke poured from cracks around
the oven. The door of the firebox
flew open and dumped most of the
burning willows out into the tent.
Blowing itself out" observed
Charlie. scooping the glowing Goals
back into the frebox with a tin
plate. Tomorrow there won't
be a sign of wind. Wen pull on
over to the Inmachuk and settle
down. The cabins stovepipe is
almost sure to be sticking up
above the drifts, and when we've
dug our way in well be like two
bears in a den. There's bacon,
beans and -four there to feed us a
month"
BEFoRE rolling up in our robes,
we built mound of sticks like a
beaver house at our feet, so that
during the night all we had to do
was sit up in our bedding, cram
the stove full. and fall back to
snatch a few more minutes rest
before the cold became unbear-
able again.
Charlie was right about the
wind. 1t began to calm. The moon
had dimmed, too. Instead of its
silvery rays shining steadily on
the tent roof I imagined / could
see colored lights. After few min
utes l was sure of it.
And as though it was signal,
our nine huskies reused them
selves in their snowy beds, lifted
their noses to the sky and filed the
cold night with the weird. quaver-
ing strains of the ''malemute
chorus" For five minutes they
yipped and sang their overture.
Then. slowly. the spine-tingling
music died away.
When / went outside a short
time afterward to drag the willow
pile closer, the darkness had sud-
denly and dramatically come alive.

all the rest of the earth to under
stand. 1t was almost as if hundreds
of searchlights with many-colored
lenses were projecting their paint
ed beams into the sky to call
attention to this one night in all
the year.
Then the flashes disappeared,
to be replaced Immediately by red,
blue and green shafts probing into
the filmy clouds thousands of feet
above. While I watched and shiv-
cred, the pillars merged and fused
into a solid wall in which were
blended all the bright colors of the
spectrum.
As suddenly as if a supernatural
hand had reached up to swab the
zenith clear, the colors were
whisked out of the sky. For a few
moments the stars shone and twin
kled brighter than I had ever re-
membered them, and l saw with
distinct clarity a band of reindeer
standing ON a white knoll not far
away. Then colorful searchlight
beams sprang out of the north be-
hind them and started exploring
the sky all over again.
SoURDOUGH Charlie had joined
me as l stood out there under the
tinted vault of the night, doubled
over with cold yet too thrilled to
seek shelter in the tent. Don't
believe I ever saw the Northern
Lights any brighter" he observed.
But l guess they ought to burn
extra bright tonight, at that"
He carried an armful of branches
when he went into the tent and
followed with another load.
Taking Charlie s advice. turned
in with my fur hat on. My heavy
mitts did service as pillow, and
the reindeer parka spread over the
blankets helped seal out the cold.

a start that he was reading the

AFTER a while, Charlie slowed
the book away in his duffel bag
and looked over to my end of the
tent to see if l was still awake.

socks trimmed with red. He laid
them across my mukluks near the
stove.
"A little present for you," he
said. "A man can't own too many
socks and blankets in this coun-
try"
He blew out the candle and in
a few minutes was breathing heav-

day. On arriving. they drove to a
local building and loan association
where Mrs. Oler withdrew $500
from her account.
They then went to a Government
building-which one, Mrs. Oler could
not remember. The man previously
had informed her he had contacts
in the War Assets Administration.
The man remained in the building
for about an hour while Mrs. Oler
waited outside. When he reap
peared, he told Mrs. Oler he needed
$3.50 more to complete purchasing
arrangements.
Mrs. Oler told police they went to
a bank at Fifteenth street and New
York avenue NV. to get the addi-
tional funds from an account the
man said he maintained there.
Leaving the widow waiting outside
the man entered the band, but this
time he did not return, Mrs. Oler
told police.

DETROIT WOLVERINES SOCCER CLUE


With a month of play remaining in the
North American professional soccer league
before the play-off series starts, the No. 1
question throughout the loop is whether any
club can catch the Detroit Wolverines who
are understanding all rivals with their torrid
scoring pace.
The first place Detroiters are idle this week,
but have a retur engagement with the Chi
cago Maroons there July %. After that they
can sit back and await the finale here Aug.

their position in the title round is secure.
How completely the Wolverines outclass
their competition was proved Sunday against
the Maroons, who went into the game with
the opportunity of taking the lead if they
could win. The goal-crazy Detroit eleven
proceeded to set a league scoring record with
elght TALES for an 8 to 4 triumph that boost
ed their scoring average to slightly more than
four goals per game. Here are the current
league standings:
