Chapter 3

Chapter 3
TT was the fifteenth of July, mi.
nus two days, and New York
was in the throes of one of its
Supplying heat waves.
Susan. as she hurried along
.Fifty-seventh Street. en- route to
the subway. thought she had new
er seen SO many men with taut
lips and harassed eyes. or so many
sour-faced women whose features
and makeup were about to part
company. Where did all these dis
agreeable-looking people come
from anyhow? If they didn't like
New York in the summertime,
why didn't they 60 back to wher-
ever they belonged? She could
bear it: she belonged there.
That her own appearance was
not quite up to it's usual standard
did not occur to Susan. Neverthe-
less. more than one disgruntled
pedestrian turned to stare after
her marveling that anyone, no
matter how young and romantic,
could look young and romantic on
a day such as this.
Whats little thing like phys
ical discomfort" Susan was telling
herself resolutely, "when you
know you've done a good job?"
She was not consciously patting
herself on the back. She was only
hoping to get to the subway kiosk
before she collapsed. She was try
ing very hard to concentrate on
the fact that her broadcasting
series was practically over and,
just as John Bates had predicted,
it had been a success. There was
only one more program to go, and
that was to announce the names
of the winners.
She had just come from the
broadcaSting studio, where every
one had congratulated her on her
fine performance dyring the past
several weeks. Even the man who
sat in the glass-enclosed control
booth-the man with the heavy
eyebrows, whom Susan had pri-
vately considered an ogre-had
been lavish in his praise of her
program He had put big smudge
on her brand-new linen suit in
his haste to shake hands with her
after today's broadcast!

about radio scripts. Now l have
nothing to do but get back to the

letters. selecting the best ones,
from which Steve Cells and three
other judges would choose the
five winning couples.
Also, there were pages upon
pages of copy to be written for
the magazine. as her columns had
to be done well in advance. There
must be no unfinished business
hanging over her head when the
winners arrived. It would be all
she could do to entertain them
and see to it that the week on
Long Island was memorable
one.
Once the judges had announced
their decisions. there would be
train schedules to be studied, tick
cts to be bought. Letters would
have to be written. apprising the
winners of their good fortune.
Then there would be the
dreadful problem of appeasing the
losers. Susan's heart quailed at
the thought. True. Steve had
promised to give her an expert
stenographer. borrowed part-time
from the circulation department.

emergency. A couple of hours, in

She had hoped to find time to
do a little shopping before the
eventful week on Long Island
rolled around. Although her ward
robe was adequate enough for the
office, it fell far short of the needs
of a hostess on a magnificent
estate.
CUDDENLY she realized that, in

been missing something. Here. on
Fifty-Seventh Street. was chance
to acquaint herself with precisely
what a smart young woman
should wear at a gay Long Island
house party. The prices here
would be beyond her limited
means. But it would do no harm
