Exactly how, Blossom? What
else about it did Birdie tip you

her mouth and lit it herself, let
ting Jigger's match remain burn

prompted, "How did they start
up trouble, Blossom? What's the
use in closing up on me now?"

Jigger set out to convince her,
her face quiZzing every sound he

insure that Joey would 60 to the

Joey'S numbers graft. Ask your
self: why should Joey kill Bir-

it for him." Blossom was knitting
her brow and Jigger continued,
"Lederer was afraid Birdie could

He figured Birdie was a cluck.

that. l was here the day he yelled
it from the bedroom. I'm giving
it to you straight. Lederer's under

Blossom said in a husky voice,
sitting in a crouch, "Lederer

of big money. Birdie was doing
all right until Lederer came

SiStance was gone in Blossom.

Jigger made it very plain and
