DEXTER: (grandly) Skip it. Sell 'em over. I wouldn't know what to do with 'em. He shoves the five-dollar blU across the counter to her. CORLISS: (gratefully) Thanks a million, Dexterl You're really very sweet. Impulsively, she gives him a hearty kiss and gleefully rings up the sale on the cush register. Dex ter is quite overcome with hap piness.. : CLOSE SHOT THE TWO SOL DIERS IN THE BACKGROUND They hae watched the transac tion with evident approval. The prospect of purchasing kisses from these attractive girls obviously uppeals to them. Dexter walks through the Shot with a glance back ut Corliss. DEXTER: (deeply moved) Holy cowl As Dexter disappears, the two dtldleru step up to the counter. MILDRED: (helpfully) Cun I do anything for you boys? The soldiers exchange eloquent looks. FIRST SOLDIER: You sure can, slsterl How much? 'Assuming that the boy is refer ring to her guest towels, Mildred leans forward to display her mor chandlse. MILDRED: Only a dollar. FIRST SOLDIER: (cheerfully slnpping down a dollar bill) Soldi Without furthor ado, ho kisses Mildred enthusiastically. Mean- While, the second soldier, fum bling In his wallet, produces c fistful of crumpled dollar bills, Mildred indignantly shoves the boy away, and Corliss watches with wide-eyed fascination. MILDRED: Why, you fresh thing! How dare you? SECOND SOLDIER: (puzzled) He puld for it, didn't he? FIRST SOLDIER: (grinning) And very nlco, tool I think I'll hove another. Mildred backs away alarmed.

't CORLISS: (virtuously) Personally, I'm perfectly willing, to sacrifice myself for a good cause and sell kisses. and sell kisses. The idea is evidently appealing to Mildred, too, but she still has a few scruples, MILDRED: I know. But I don't think my mother CORLISS: (instantly) Your mother's out shopping with ray mother, and they won't be herf for hours. By that time we can raise gobs of money and they won't have to know, will they? MILDRED: (weakening) Well, CORLISS: (wrinkling her nose) Oh, come on, let's! I think sol diers enjoy kisses more than guest towels anyway. WIDER ANGLE During the girls' discussion in the rear of the booth, the two young soldiers have been Joined by three or four of their buddies, and all of them ore now ranged along the counter, hopefully waiting. As the huddle breaks up and Corliss and Mildred come back to the counter obviously ready to sacri fice themselves for the Red Cross, they are greeted by enthusiastic whistles. RAYMOND'S BOOTII MEDIUM SHOT Dexter is just returning to the booth, still glowing with the mem ory of Corliss' furtive kiss. RAYMOND: (cynically) Well, what did Corliss want? DEXTER: I got hooked for five towels! RAYMOND: (pityingly) There's one born every minute. (To Be Continued) Abbott-Herbert Corp. Distributed NEA SERVICE, INC. What's the matter? You're sell ing kisses, aren't you? MILDRED: What! You must be crazy! FIRST SOLDIER: Wo saw her sell 'em to thut boy just now. MILDRED: Oh, don't be silly! Thut wus her boyfriend, Dexter ho lives next door. The soldiers reulize that there has been some mistake. FIRST SOLDIER: (scooping up his dollar with o disarming grin) Well, I'm sorry, Miss. We thought Corliss is motioning Mildred to come Into a huddle in the rear of the booth. CORLISS: (urgently) Mildred, c'mero a sec. (to the soldiers) Don't go away, boys. REAR OF BOOTH CLOSE SHOT CORLISS AND MILDRED Mildred still has a wary eye on the young soldiers at the counter. MILDRED: (nervous whisper) Do you suppose we ought to send for a cop or on M. P., or something? Corliss is chewing thoughtfully on bobble pin, on idea evidently forming In her mind. CORLISS: (glibly) Golly after all, why not? I mean, why don't we? MILDRED: (shocked) You're crazy! CORLISS: But movie stars do it all the time when they sell bonds. MILDRED: (still dubious) I know, but CORLISS: (virtuously) Per sonally, I'm perfectly willing to sacrifice myself for a good cause Doll and Clothes By MRS.
