Newspaper Page Textiff Sec. II, Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Thursday, Feb. tl, 1952 Change, By Kathleen Harris CHAPTER 23 How oould she stop Abigail from going to Dean? For Abigail's sake, no one else's. Tomorrow would come much too soon lor Marcla. She knew she -would lie awake the rest of the night, waiting for it. And when it came she still would not know what to do. It seemed to her as though hours had passed she had long been hearing Abigail's quiet, steady breathing which meant that her; sister had fallen almost Immediately into deep, untroubled slumber when the phone began to ring. Marcia hastily slipped out of bed to answer it before Abigail was awakened. When she heard the voice at the other end of the wire she was reminded of another night, which now seemed long ago.. For it was Manning Kornoff, the "mad" Russian. And he said much the same thing he had that other time. "I want you to deliver a message to Abigail for me," he said. "I want you to tell her that I cannot stand by and endure more. Please tell her good-bye for me." "Please hold the wire," Marcla said. "I'll call her. Abigail is asleep. : But I'll call her, if you'll wait, please." "It's no use. Do not call her now. Morning will be tune enough." "No, IH call her now. I am sure she will want to talk with you." "Thank you, no." His voice re mained firm, final. It was far too controlled for Manning, who was given to dramatics. "Tell her that I loved her far. far too much and goodbye. That's all." Marcia heard the decisive click of the receiver at the other end. She jiggled the hook on her own phone, but brought no response. She did not know why, but she felt panicky. It was almost as though a deep shadow had darkened everything, casting a silent ominous spell. She could not go back to bed. She wished she could waken Abi gail. Yet she hated to. Her sister had slept through the conversa tion, Marcia carefully having pulled the door to the bedroom shut. Abigail did not stir when Marcia tiptoed back into the room. No, it would be a pity to waken her, Marcia decided. She would have to do something without her sister's help. There was an indexed pad on ihe telephone stand she should have remembered it before. Thumb-1 lng through it, Marcia found Man-! ning's number, and beneath it the! address where he lived. She dialed the number; she could hear the bell . ringing, then ring ing and ringing again. The fear some panic within her grew. The silence at the other end of the line 'Was a bad as the quiet that seemed to be closing in on Marcia. She felt she dared not wait long er, keep trying the phone. She dressed as quickly, quietly as she could. Still Abigail did not stir. Perhaps she ought to leave a note in case her sister did waken and become alarmed at Marcia's ab sence. Bub Marcia still felt there was not time; she felt some urgency hurrying her. She was lucky in getting a cruis ing cab at the corner. She gave the man the address. She did- not notice that the man looked her over curiously, carefully. But he respectfully repeated the address she had named and reached to slam the door tight. The big city was asleep, the Ave nue deserted. Marcia never had seen It like this, without Its color and glamour. Why, it was as peace ful as Elmwood! Perhaps under neath the big show it was not so different, its people not so dif ferent, either. They Just seemed different on the surface. Abigail was like that. Tonight she had re vealed that she was soft and warm and loving beneath the polished sheen. "This is It, miss.

He often drove odd pssengers at odd hours of the mgnt. women some tunes, a well as men. But this girl was onlv a kid. Too young, fragile, to be out alone. 'No. thank vou." Marcia nald him. "Thank you very much for bringing me. Good night." No one had ever said that to the man. Good night, as though he were a special person, a friend. People talked to him, of course. Taxi' drivers got lonesome. They often started the talk rolling, but they never brought it to too oer- sonal a basis. Tnere was something about the kid's face ... He decided he would wait anyway. A little while. Couldn't do no harm. She might come out, not be so lucky to find a cab right off. She oughn't go walking about trying to find a cab by herself after midnight, not a kid like that. The driver had two kids of his own; boys. But he had always wanted a girl, too. Marcia was relieved to hear mu c. soft music, from inside Man ning's door. It wns a huge relief after all that stillness. The re cording that was playing was "Now Is the Hour." She remembered, with & nana of nostalgia, when she had heard that song before. With Tommy, back home. She wished Tommy were here, beside her now. He had said, Remember, Marcia, if you ever need me just send for me. sue needed nun now. she wished she could send for him. She did not know whv she should think of Tommy, except for the song, which was beginning now, as it had that other time, to play over once more. She should have been thinking of Dean. Or of Man-i ning Kornoff. History reneating it-1 self. Tommy and the song. The! nhone and Manning. Dean . . .1 Dean she , need not think about now. There was no response to her ring or knock: trrobablv neither could be heard with the record machine going. Marcia could not leave without going in. She tried the knob; it turned beneath her touch, the door swinging open. ) The small living room was ablaze with lights, but it was emDtv. Ex-1 cept for the soft music this room seemed to hold that same ominous silence, that same dark shadow. 1 (To Be Continued) Unionvale Mrs. Norman Gubser and small son, John, of Fort Bragg, N.C., is a guest of her husband's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ersel Gubser.
