CHAPTER VI
fHERK to laughtar nd tht
aound of fay voices In tha
softly lighted dlninf room of ont
of tha city's axclusiva clubs. Tha
(sneral lr wll one of sacura nd
quiet dignity.
But It wii not comfortable
atmotphara for Tony Scott, dining
with Anne Norrii. He reminded
himself furiously this was Just the
type of place he hoped to enter
wrougn nil rnarrmsc wuu wi.
wan here now, as her guest, but he
didn't like it. He had an uncom
fortable feeling that people were
taring it him and whispering.
He'd show them aomeday, he
promised himself. Someday, when
he was Anne's husband.
"Tout, I just can't see you again
for i while."
"What do you mean a while?"
Hi voice was steady. After all.
he had been expecting something
like this.
"Well until the end of the
rear. IVe promised."
He lifted an eyebrow. "I ee.
Vm awry, Anne. I'd had an idea
I waa important to you. I guest
I was wrong."
"Of course, you're Important to
'me. Don't you lee, Tony? I've
promised my uncle my guardian
I wouldn't tee you again until
achool cloaca in June. Having din
ner with you tonight is the last
date until then. I had to see you
once more to explain."
- "And after achool closes?"
"Then" She lifted her handi
in a lovely gesture.
Ha nodded. This wu another of
those times, he told himself, when
aeeming to agree would win him
success later, later that very ve
. nlng, in fact. When Anna had
suggested they dine at her uncle's
club, ha had readily assented
because ha had his own plans tar
the remainder of the evening. -
"I wouldn't want you to go
against your guardian's wishes,"
ha told her. With a sudden smile,
ha added: "After all. It isn't long
until June."
Ha noticed a couple at a nearby
table glancing at htm curiously.
Again ha felt angry and uncom
fortable. "Come on, Anne, let's get out of
hare!" Ha started to say "These
high-hata think they're the only
people on earth," and caught him
self just In time. That wasnt the
thine to say to Anne. Ha smiled
and continued suavely. "I want
you all to myself on our last date
for a long while."
VAIN was beginning to fall as
Tony's sleek, fast ear drove
Away from the club.
"Maybe we'd better go straight 1
ack to the college. Arm suf
! fasted. "It's going to storm."
i "Okay. I guess you're right .
' They drove a few miles In" the
direction of the Midland campus,
Ithen suddenly the car slowed. " '
' "Anne, let's go by the Post road.
There's a fellow out there I want
;te sea about a boat I'm buying
lit won't take but a minute."
, "Alt rtrht. It's aarlv. anrwav"
I Ther drove out the Post road.
'talking idly of the boat Tony
' fneant to buy. At last ba stopped-!
the ear before a low, brilliantly
lighted building. Staring out the
ear window, Anna -recognized it ;
as the Villa Aloha, one of the I
madhouses forbidden to college
students.
"Coma on with me, Anne. It's
too wet for you to wait in the car."
. She shook her head. "I don't
want to break school rules, Tony."
"Oh, come on it isn't as if you
were going in to spend the eve
ning. Anyway, no one will recog
nize you. The manager won't let
any college people in."
- She hesitated a moment. It was
true it was a little different to go
.in for a moment with Tony, who
;was there on business. It was,
she hoped, Just as true that no
one would recognize her. And she
had always been curious to see
inside the place. Still
THE Villa Aloha was a tawdry
place, too bright, too filled with
loud voices, heavy smoke and the
unmistakable odor of liquor. A
three-piece orchestra played swing
at one end of the room. The men
and women sitting at the tables
Were as strange to Anne as the
. guests at her uncle's club had been
strange to Tony. She was uncom
fortable and a little frightened,
and hoped Tony would hurry.
They would have to wait a few
minutes, he explained, and, a little
reluctantly, she sat down at one
of the tables.
"Hi, Tony!"
Anna turned and saw a slender,
pretty, blond girl, in a cheap taffe
ta availing dress standing by the
table.
"Hello, Clarice." Tony's cheeks
bad reddened a little. "Miss Nor
ris Miss Lane. Clarice runs the
die game here," ha added, in ex
planation. The blond girl barely
acknowledged the introduction,
devoting her attention to Tony.
"Where have you been, any
way? I thought you were going
to call me up last week."
"I was busy," Tony said curtly.
"Never knew you to be thati
busy before," Clarice said, laugh
ing shrilly. She laid her hand on
- Tony's arm, familiarly,
i , A sudden wave of revulsion
' came over Anne. More than any
' thing in the world, she wanted to
.get out of the Villa Aloha, away
from Tony, back to the security of
Ci the college.
' , "Please, Tony I'd like to go,"
' ' "In a minute."
' The blond girl stared at her
ee-ldly... ........
Anne had had enough. Suddenly
- ;ahe rose lo bar feet "Tony, I'm
going, right now. Til wait for you
in the car"
Her voice died in her throat.
Two men, wide ahouldered, flash
ily dressed, edged past their table,
hands in coat pocket. As they
reached the next table, a short
stout man seated there leaped up
in sudden fear, overturning his
chair.
Angry voices, guns spitting
flame confusion somewhere a
woman screamed. The musiciana
stopped in the middle of a phrase.
For an instant Anne was too
paralvzed with fear to move. Then
she realised that she must get
away, and at once
"Tony !"
Tony was gone.
e
ITER one thought was to get
iA away. Others had had the
same idea, and there was a crowd
i at the door. The police would be
ihere soon, she might be held for
questioning. That would mean the
end of her college career, she
knew.
Frantic and frightened, she
looked around the room for a way
out.
i "Come this way "
She saw Clarice, a look of sym
pathy on her face.
"Here there s a rear aoor ro
the manager's office follow me."
Anne followed the dice-game
girl as she led her through a maze
of hallways to the office, and un
locked a rear door.
"Beat it while you can. That
guy Tony he would save his own
skin, and leave you stuck here
the rati"
She all but shoved Anne out the
door, and slammed it shut
A police car had stopped st the
front entrance of the building.
Tony's car was gone, in nespera
tion, Anne ran the other way,
across a stretch of bushes and
open ground.
Stumbling in the dark, her dress
catching on branches and bram
bles, she ran through the rain.
Somehow she must get awny. But
she had a sudden terrible feeling
that she was hping pursued.
