A NEW LIFE
XXIV
, TT had been six months since I
wrote thnt letter to Gerry
Ewlng, the beautiful blonde who
danced In the floor show at Billy
Hose's Diamond Horseshoe. I had
yet to receive an answer, so the
night after we arrived In New
York Glngiss and I decided to
' look up Gerry Ewlng and demand
an explanation.
"But Captain Genovese, you're
so short!" Gerry said, the very
first thing when we met her at
the St. Moritz. "I thought you
said in your letter that you were
what was It? Six feet?"
"I don't remember," I said, em
barrassed, because I had been a
trifle liberal in estimating my
height. "But flying takes a lot out
of a man. Makes you lose a lot of
weight sometimes probably af
fects your height, too. ..."
The picture of Gerry In the
magazine was very good, but It
didn't do her justice. In the flesh
he was twice as beautiful, with
silky blonde hair and wide blue
eyes and soft red lips and a smile
that crinkled around the eyes.
Just hearing the soft melody of
her laugh made me all wobbly In
side. After she had dressed and
come from her room and slipped
her arm through mine, wo went
out and got a cab and drove over
to the Stork Club, and I asked the
hcadwaitcr for a table for two.
"Aren't you all together?" he
asked. I turned and saw Glngiss
standing there looking rather be-
wildercd. "Oh oh, yeah," I said.
"That's right. Make It a table for
three."

me out of Randolph Field back
in 1939 was nothing compared to
the complete daze that engulfed
me in the three weeks following
my first evening with Gerry
Ewlng. At the end of that time I
was still walking around with my
head in the clouds and there was
nothing to do but lay my cards on
the table.
"I love you, Gerry," I told her
one night, and she smiled and
said, "That's nice, because I love
you, too."
And so we were married.
llTUCH as one hates to concede
the fact, honeymoons cannot
go on forever. Ours ran on bliss
fully from the end of August unU'
early October with never once a
thought of the turmoil in which
the rest of the world found Itself,
but then reality returned In the
form of a telegram from Glngiss,
who had gone back home to Chi
cago a few weeks before.
"Have nice airline Job lined up
In South America," he wired.
"Room for you, too. Good pay and
dangorous. What more could you
ask?"
"What do you think, dear?" J.
asked, handing the message to
Oorry. "Would you like to live in
South America?"
Gerry rend It three or four
times, and then she said, "I'll tell
you what I think: I think there
are mountains in South America,
and tho first thing you know that
prostate trouble or whatever It
was will start up again. Another
thing I think, as long as you've
asked me, is that you've done
enough dangerous flying. Your
work at Lockheed and at Brew
ster Aircraft and your knowledge
of planes from all these experi
ences in England and in China and
India, all that ought 1' qualify
you as an engineer, some kind of
a job where you could put all that

THE
knowledge to good use. Why say,""
I'll bet ..."
On and on Gerry went, building
up her bridegroom so vigorously
that If he had listened to all she
had to say and taken it seriously
he would have -gone out next
morning and started the founda
tions for an aircraft factory of his
own. But the bridegroom didn't
listen to all of it he was already
becoming a husband.
nnHZ bridegroom's argument with
himself was short-lived. Most
Important to him as well as to
everyone else In the United States,
If not In the world, was to get the
war over with. And flying in
South America would contribute
little to that.
He returned to Til3 apartment
after an absence of two hours the
next afternoon and told his bride
to start packing; they were on
their way to., Evansville, Indiana.
"Evansville?" Gerry exclaimed.
"What are we going to do buy a
farm?"
"No, Cookie, we aren't going to
buy a form," he said. "I'm going
to sec about a job with Republic
Aviation. They have a big plant
just outside Evansville where
they're turning out P-47 Thunder
bolts, the hottest fighting planes
in the world, and there's a chance
that I can get in on the deal."
"As an executive, you mean?"
Gerry said, all excited.
"Well, kind of," I replied.
"You see, once In a while a plane
comes off the line that isn't just
right, and they have to have an
expert on hand to figure out just
what's wrong. It's a mighty re
sponsible job I'll be lucky if I
can land it."
'Well, Just so it's safe, that's
all I care," Gerry said, and the
bridegroom was too busy packing
his suitcase to answer.
He had done his best hot to
misrepresent the job, but even so
Gerry was pretty upset when an
Evansville paper carried a nice
big story two days after he started
to work captioned: CAPTAIN J.
