In the girls game, the Imbler team toolc an early lead ol eight points, before Cove scored, and at the half, Cove trailed 10 to 3. In the second frame the Imbler lassies were unable to find the hoop for a single counter, while Cove was busy scoring 10 points to moko the final score J3 to 10. The game between the boys' teams proved to be blistering from the start, and at half time, the oountl favored Imbler 14 to 12. As the game re opened, Cove forged Into the lead with a pair of baskets, and was not headed for the remainder of the con tost, which came to a. frantic con clusion with Imbler making a des perate drive for points. It was Im blerM first loss of the season.

Tho other two men were not In view. The non dsacrlfit car looked oddly desolate with Its gaping doors, He riowned, considering. Ills Im pulse was to follow one of the nion. He realized that the capture o! one or all of thorn would effectively slop the peculiar and mysterious perse cution of Janice Kent. That they were serious about their business he did not doubt. Huertilly he put his hand to his sldo where his assiilla tit's bullet had gouged the cloth. Hut Wlnslow's arm needed attention. And certainly Janice must bo on tho -erge of hys terla from the ordeal which sho hnd undergone. "i'ii ruit thu slotts buck off the road," he said. "Spin, you climb In the back with Janice." Ho turned to tho girl. "Wo hod nn accident. Ills arm's bad. You'll hae to rnuke H as easy for him as you can during tho trip back to Callenta. Tho road looks pretty bad It this Is a sample. Ex planations Inter." Ho rolled tho rocks from tho road, and got In behind the whoel. Uo suc ceeded In turning tho car on tho nar row road, and headed back up tho coast. Ho drove an hour In allonce, busied with his thoughts, During that time they passed ono lono car going In tho opposlto direction. Ab the headlights Hashed upon thorn, Frank looked back. Ono o tho girl's arms was around tho dyer's shoulder; tho other was bracod against ho Inevitable lurching of the automobile. Hor glnnce mot hla briefly; hor lips parted In a warm smile. Frank turned back to the business of driving. A fine girl; ono In a mil lion. Sho was reacting magnificent ly to tho situation. A (Ulck throb of exultation surged In his breast as ho thought of how sho had clung thut Instant to him whon ho had taken her from tho cur. LI 0 felt his face Hush with a sensa tion of delight Btrnngo to hhn whon he remombered that sho had pressed hor check against Ills coot. There was no doubt that she had done so to Frank thoro was no question as to why b!c had done sn. Allowing fur a nutural Impulse of gratitude and of nervous reaction, still she could have thanked him otherwise. That she had not thnnlted ii I in but had made that small gesture, led him to one conclusion: tho gesture had been one of nffoctlnn. Ho loved Janlco Kent of that ho was sure: that she rct'jrued his regurd seemed Incredible lut ho was sure that she did. As a swain Frank realized that he had much to learn. Lurking In the background of his mind was a small goblin of thought that there mlghl bo something oloinentnlly wrong with hla reasoning If the emotions ho felt could bo culled reason since subconsciously he appreciated thai nil loverB hellovo thut because of tho very Intensity or their emotion It must he roturncd In kind. The wish Is father to the thought. Hut Jnnico had pressed her check against his emit. Ho swung the nose of tho car Into the paved highway and bonded for the stono columns that flunked the grounds of Agua Cnllento. Tho tiros crackled over tho grnvolcd patio. He drew up boforo tho hnlel onlioiu'o. "I'll arrange Tor a cottage for Janice," he said, "and got a saw bones for you, Spin. I'll phono My berg Inside." To nn nttendant ho guvo quick In structions, and passed Into tho hotel 'pHIO houao doctor hnd come and gone. Spin was resting easily There was n reek of othor In tho nlr. The doctor had diagnosed a dlslo cotcd shoulder, Instructing Frank to hold his friend so, while ho pressed In tho Joint. Janice Insisted that she stay In tho room nnd help. Tho doctor had demurrett, Frank oxpostulntetl, nnd Spin himself had told her In that CO.

AY) DRUM CROPS MEET TONIGHT Because of the President's Birthday ball, to be held tonight at the Sacn Jnwen Inn. the American Legion drum eoriw will not hold Its weekly rehear sal. Tho next practice will be Tuesday evening. Feb. 0. GODDESS! Iy Herbert Jensen (aliitly btlter way of Ms that ac tresses made lousy nurses and to get the hell out of there, Janice had given him a verbal war lop In return. Sho'd said with a placid detachment, "I'll hold the mask, Doctor, while you pour the chloroform. The man's Just afraid I'll find out about his past when he talks going under. But he's not near ly so bad as he thinks he Is. He'll probably sing psalms. I'll stay." Vuguoly Frank remembered that Janice had been Bplendld while they had worked over the unconscious Spin. Doft, capablo, yet unobtrusivo, sho had beon Invaluable. The meta morphosis from skilled actress to the subordinate but efficient part of doctor's assistant was amazing be cause It was absolute. Frank and Janice walked from tho hotel room v. here lay Spin, to the detached cottage that was to be the girl's for tho night. Light from the Casino slashed Into the mild sky. Music from the hidden patio followed thorn ao they walked; bursts of distant laughter and of muffled conversation were synco pated by the sound of ivory balls rattling about ins spinning wheels In tho gaming rooms. The moon was a newly minted silver coin flung high above them. . The world, to Frank, waa a very good place to be olI"e In. Janice was safe it was enough; ui'anatlons could come another time. He was In love with her, he realized with sud den conviction Spin Wlnslow's cyni cisms about Janice Kent's ambi tions, the vague memory of the non marriage clause of her contract with Consolidated, her wealth, her beauty, her aura of unattnlnablllty had shrunk this night but she re mained, walking by his sldo, clinging a bit tlrodly to his arm, the weary, sweet girl with whom he was In love. AT the doorway of bor cottage, she turned hor face, a bit white In tho moonlight, to Frank, Her voice held the husklness of fatigue when she said; "Good night, Frank. You've been such a dear Oh, I don't mean that. How absurdly trivial words are! I moon " Frank caught her in his arms. She did not resist but lay there an In stant, looking at him. Her eyes were wide the deep blue of them had darkened to black. They hinted, mcltlngly, of surrender. Frank kissed her. Her Hps against his wore cool and dotacned a curi ous aloofness that caiiHeo Frank, In a brief flash, to think of the figurines of 'ho Virgin he'd seen In remote niches of lost churches found In for gotten Jungles. Did ho Imagine It? or did for a fleeting Instant hor lips tremble against 111 b ? Abruptly she was out of hla arms and her hand on the door-knob. Frank halt rnlaed his arms. "Plooso . . .," aho said, "I'm vory tired." Was It fright ho saw In hor oyos 1 no but It was an odd timid ity. "I'm sorry." Sho seemed'to any that to hersolf. "Frank, forget that, will you, please." Her breast roae and fell with quick, abort breaths, but tho alarm hnd gone from hor eyos. . "1 love you, Janlco," said Frnnk. Tho words woro husky In his throat. Janice put up her arm In a gesture of half protest. Suddenly Bhe laughed, a little trill that ran through half nn octnve. The sound of It seemed to throw a olonk of re straint between them. Frank's arms dropped to his side. The girl's slen der II ku ro took on a new poise. She said hurriedly: "Wo mustn't bo silly. You must go now. r"ou Oh, how mournful you look!" Her little lough broke on a half note. Swiftly sho drifted against Frank. Sho shook his arms In a stun!) ges ture of good-humored protest. She stood on tiptoe. Lightly her Hps brushod his a Hooting feather of fragrance, then she waa gone. Uut she wns not gone from Frank's mind. Me stood, stnrlng nt tho door and rapidly running buck through the strnnge trail of events that hud brought thotn to this spot. There woro so many chances that thoy might never havo met. Suppose. for one. that he had not madly de cided to follow her car that day In Hollywood. Or suppose that ho hnd not telephoned her house this vory ovonlng He half raised his hand to touch hla lips, then turnod and walked back to the holol.
