THE CASE OF THE FABULOUS CORSAGE
Continued from page teenfy-f0o

Danes wear 'em to dances
and such"
oh, a bouquet. Very pretty.
U'mm. Very. Course the missus
hasn't danced for eleven years.
Not since her rheumatism"
Make a nice table center
piece" said Harry, walking off.
WHAT happened to it for the
next hour nobody knows, ex-
actly, but Peter, the page boy,
got it from Chairman, the house
detective. Peter had a peculiarly
childish, yet brassy voice, and
an absolutely impregnable way
of getting in the path of a guest
so absentminded as to forget his
tip. Guests were sure this was an
accident, because Peter had
childish blue eyes, pink cheeks
and an innocent little-boy air
about him. Another fact about
Peter was that he was in love
with Ruth Crosby. At first glance
this might have seemed hope
less, even to Peter. But he had
stoutly convinced himself that
the fact Miss Crosby was some
ten years older than himself was
no serious drawback. Further
more, he was still growing, so
why be concerned about the fact
that she was nearly a head taller.
So, it was Peter who, really
shy now, pushed the box through
the cashiers window, just be-
fore the assistant cashiers quit
ting time, saying, Present for
you, Miss Crosby"
''REALLY?" Miss Crosby looked
surprised as she opened the box.
"Oh, how lovely! How utterly
beautiful. -" She looked for a
card. But whoisit from, Peter?"
Peter blushed. Me" he said,
and for once the brass was gone
from his voice, and it trembled.
Only for the merest infini-
tesimal fraction of a second did
Miss Crosby look startled. Then,
How sweet of you, Peter" she
said, so warmly that Peter went
into a rosy sort of haze. But
you shouldn't have done it. It's
too wonderful for words"

Sixth Win in II Track
Meets With British
by the Associofed Press

LONDON, June 3O.-The Cor
nel-Princeton athletes hope they
perform tomorrow against Oxford
Cambridge as well as they have
been eating since they got to
Britain q week ago.
'"The food" said Coach Matt
Gels Of Princeton enthusiastically
"has been excellent. It's been a
very pleasant surprise.
'It couldn't have been improved
upon. You know. we'd heard so
many stories about shortages and
all. that the first day I went out
to see the chef and asked to see
the menu. I took one look and
haven't bothered about it since.
"I wouldn't say there is plenty
Of meat. but there's enough"
The IL Cornell and 8 Princeton
track men finished their workouts
at Cambridge University yester-
day. They come down to White
City Stadium here tomorrow
morning by train.
Gels said the Americans plan
to loaf around today, resting up
for tomorrow's meet.
1t will be the 11th time the
Americans have met the British,
the first time in Britain since the
war.
In the series beginning in 1921,
Princeton and Cornell have chalk
ed up five wins, Oxford and Cam
bridge four. One has resulted in
a draw.
Princeton Cornell took last years
contest at Princeton, 9 to 4.
The contest pits two Britons
against two Americans in II
events, plus a 440-yard relay. A
victory is worth a point in each
event. and nothing else counts.
Gels was pretty cagy about
predictions on the out
come this year.
"The home team" he said, "al-
ways has the advantage"
In between workouts the Amer
cans have been sightseeing. Some
OF them probably will drift off to-
day to view historic spots in this
area.
