At 11:30 Sam and Big Ed drew up to the Intersection of two back itreets and picked him up. "Well?" Ed laid. "Ed, I'm tellin' you I know o much about that dame I even know what ahe'i gonna have for lunch tomorrow." Roceo grinned In the darkness. "Yeah ... aure," Big Ed told him. "You're limply amazin', but IH pin the medals on you later. Give out with the dope." Rocco spoke quickly. "Tomor- her sociology class out to an or phanage . . . the uses this Rhodes kid's car ... she geta back at and takes the car to the stadium so's he don't have to walk back from football practice T . . when she drives down to the stadium, that's when we work." "Yeah, and what if she decides to keep the car all afternoon and take it back at 5, or maybe later." "Nine chances outa ten she wont I know, I'm tellin' you." "HowM you pick all this stuff up since 4 o'clockT" - r : Rocco laughed mirthlessly. "Tell me, Ed . . . you know anyone as smart as your boy Roceo? I got methods." Big Ed bit off the and of a cigar and lit It "Sam, you get up early and give this bus good going over, hey?" X - Sam , stared straight ahead. "She ain't never run better." " "Mebba not but you'll do what I say, hey Sam?" "Sura, Ed . . Sure." V JT waa a beautiful fall. day, and Joan, walking over to pick up Keith's car, wished it were two miles Instead of two blocks to the Gamma house. She' picked up the keys from the cook and drove over to on of the dorms to call for three Stir Is In her class who were to' make the trip with her. They joined the rest of the ' group at the orphanage and spent the next three hours making cb-. servatlons and taking notes on the' Institution's system of operation. . They ate a lata lunch at downtown tea shop and then re turned to the university district Joan took the other girls back to the dormitory and. stopped In t the Varsity for a minute. Hi, Uncle Jim," she greeted. "How about some stamps." .' ' " He pulled out his postal box. "Say, Joan, there was a fella In here a few minutes ago lookin' for a football ticket He wanted to know if you usually stopped in during the afternoon. He was in last night Just about the time you were, and asked me who you were when you went out" ; ' ' Joan frowned. "That's funny. He wasn't a student was he?" "Nope. And I noticed he got Into a big sedan across the street with a couple other fellows." "Thanks, Uncle Jim . . . couldn't have been very important or he'd have called me at the house." She returned to her room and wrote a couple of letters before taking Keith's ear back to the stadium. "Ill be back in 45 minutes or so," she told Elaine. "It I get any phone calls insist on a mes sage, will you?' e gHE dropped her letters in a corner box and drove across campus. Stopping at the library to pick up a book she bumped Into Dan Webber. , "Hi, there," she said. "Going down to the stadium soon? I'll take you down." "What do you mean youll take me down?" She explained she was return ing Keith's car. "Can you imagine that lazy so-and-so making me Walk all the way back from the stadium when I could have left It at the fraternity house." Dan grinned. "Sure I can. That's Keith. But maybe I shouldn't blame him at that The Way Slocum has been running us ragged this week that car comes In handy when it's time to go borne. They walked out Into the bright sunlight "Think I'll turn down your offer," he said. "The walk'll do me good. Anyhow, Slocum scream wh.n htt innli anw Um boys getting chauffeur service. He claims the modern athlete is Soing soft because of the automo ile and stuff." "And you believe him, of course." "Absolutely," he said solemnly. "Well, if you don't want to ride with me . . . I'm very good company, you know." He grinned again. "Okay . . . let'a get going before we start squaring off." "Whos squaring oft?" she flared, but he covered his ears and pretended not to listen. Once in the car he relaxed deep in the leather seat and sighed. "Just think three more days and life'll be worth living again. No more practice . . . no more charley-horscs ... no more Slocum bellowing In our ears." "What about the Rose Bowl?" He was silent for a long mo ment "We'll talk about that after Saturday's game maybe." "You think we'll win, don't rou?" "I think so." She noticed his quiet confidence. TWEY skirted the university power plant and swung onto the long gravel road which led down to the stadium. At the same as tan t a heavy blue sedan moved out of the stadium parking . lot nd started slowly toward them. Joan didn't notice the other car until she rounded a curve. The ledan came toward them slowly, tmack in the middle of the nar now road. "It's about time for that guy to move over," Dan muttered as they drew closer. Forty yards away and the sedan showed no inclination of drawing pver to its own side of the road. And then Joan noticed there were three men in the other car. A sudden thought made her rwing wide in an attempt to move around them, off the road, but around them, nevertheless. But they swung wide with her and when she jammed on the brakes the cars were only three feet apart She was completely blocked. "Hey!" Dan shouted. "What's rolng. ..." But even as th two ears icrecched to a stop, Rocco was icrambling out of the sedan. There was an automatio in his hsnd. Joan gasped and clutched Dan's arm. (To Be Continued) OUT OUR WAY BY J. R.
