Bowling Protection

Bowling is one Of the most popu-
lar sports measured by the great
number Of bowlers. Because Of the
terrific traffic a bowling alley
takes, the alley floor is covered
with as many as eight thin coats
Of fresh shellac. This gives the
alley surface the residence and
toughness needed. And the ball does
not skid nor does it gum up or
gather dirt.

Sandy turned. A glittering town car -
very long and very black - was puuring to

Sandy watched it 60. Then he paid the
cab driver, who was shaking his head in
disillusioned manner, and walked numbly
down the subway steps, trying to adjust
himself to collapsing world.
He had had it planned so clearly. Of
course, for time they would both have
enough money now to make him believe
there would sometime be period when he
would be the only one to fight the battle of
the rush-hour every day. The phrase 'tak-

Next morning, Sarah came through the
tunstile at Seventy seventh Street just as
the local clattered along the platform. Her
eyes found Sandy in the crowd, and she
smiled.

For some moments that looked like the
end of the conversation. Then she said,

They crossed the platform to take the
