CHAPTER XXm
ITHB world had not been a com-!
,A pletely terrible place m tonal
m Sandy was there. Not to fright-:
nlng. J Not lony- r "h
. had J refused to lee him, had!
banged doors in his face,
to Yet all of the time (he hud;
known that he was within caH,j
r that he would return. He had I
caused all this trouble because hei
loved her and had believed she
loved him.
Now he was gone
She would take the door in her
heart marked Sandy and lock it
forever. She would throw the key
high, through the upper windows!
that fringed the cells, and maybe
stranger would pick it up, or I
kick it Into the sewer. She never
would know, she never would
care. '
She Bad hoped that Sandy
would stand watch, then she re
membered that be had contributed
to her criminal record. Quits
probably he had gone off to Peg
New papers were brought in:
and she studied pictures, read'
stories, and cried a little. It was
foolish to cry for someone whom
you didnt want, and who didn't
want yon. Funny to be crying
for two people. She grinned
little, remembering that she was
saying goodby to Philip, too.
She wiped her eyes and leafedi
through the newspapers again.;
Calico dresses were selling for
$1.59. That was nice. Hers was.
bordered in rick-rack. Hers prob
ably came to $1.79. She should
feel well dressed.
CUE tamed another page. Ah,
there was picture of Sandy
with his ship. There was a brief
story, reviewing his records. One
fact alone stood out from the story
Sandy Ammerman had with
drawn from the cross-country
competition. His entrance fee had
been refunded.
The fee was $1000, Judy real
teed. What a silly thing to do
He might have won $10,000 in
the cross-country flight Then he
could work harder on his para
chute. Ha was reckless, unrea
sonable fool and she might as well
anm htm rs slnue nobody else
arauld.
i That was something she couldn't:
on, she discovered. The courts
one and all, wouldn't listen to her
because she was under local Juris
diction. Had she been turned over
to the aviation commissioners Im
mediately, she could have beent
released, and a search waiiauti
Issued for Sandy.
For a trembling moment, half!
ecstatic, half fearful, she wondered!
If the gay young aviator intended
to use the money for her bail.'
What if he had thought of this?;
Maybe Peg had told him her fans-;
By would pay the bond and save;
a pride that already was page one '
staff everywhere.
PIEQS eourthonse dock across the
. street gave four long gongs.;
prom the upper window Judy;
Icould see three marble angels up-,
holding the dock. Nearby, church!
Ichimes sounded a medley of
hymns.
' "Long distance call for you.
Kiss Allen," a turnkey said. She
stepped from the unlocked cell
and went to the booth reserved
for prisoners who had friends who
kept up the relationship.
"New York City calling," the
silvery voice of a distant operator
janswered Judy's hesitant "Hello."
Pis this Judy Allen?"
"Yes, I'm Judy Allen." !
"Judy darling!" A woman's
troice enthused.
' "Oh, Miss Barnard! Then you've
(wen reading the papers, too?"
(She tried for lightness that did
frot come. "Am I fired?"
! "Fired? You better knock that
(idea into a cocked hat. You're
jpromotedl To one of the two asso-i
relate editors. We need a column i
jon courage for girls and you're
)the one to do it Features are on I
our schedule, but no collecting
ats and gloves. . , ."
"Miss Barnard, you're peaches'
md cream and caviar, but I'm,
doomed here. My family won't:
bail me out and won't appear be-
ora the court tomorrow. I'm
ick here for 50 years."
! "Don't worry. They'll come'
ia cross or I will. Judy, I've always
Wanted to go to jail, but crashing i
to. traffic light is my worst offense.
Report in as soon as you can,"
(the lovely, lilting voice that was
jso crisp and capaMe sang on.
("You've put Under Twenty in
every paper in the country. I love
the publicity as much as dear,
(dear Philip hates it"
I
fpOR the first time in two days
Judy laughed happily. "You
teas you've seen him? Ho was
! "Proud and angry and perfect
ifrump. Judy, how did you ever
icome so close to Joining him at
the altar?"
Judy's voice was filled with
laughter as sho answered. "I
haven't any idea. I think Sara
will console him and they'll make
each other happy now."
Why she answered thus, Judy
did not know.
"The reason he played you, my
child, was because he liked you,
liked you very much, but I knew
her aunt's money lent weight to
Sara's campaign. Sara liked his
(Profile and neckties, too. Anyway,
iSara was a sieve and a Pharisee
land now she is placed where wo
i can watch her."
"Sara didn't care about irjur
Img others. Just me," Judy an
iswered, her voice growing bitter.
"Judy honey, Sara didn't want
lyour by-line oh, yes, I saw those
idelayed proof sheets, but It was
jtoo lnte to do anything about it
,so I kept still Sara wanted your
man. You're safe."
FDY felt better as she returned
to the tall, narrow cage that
lhad been her home for so many
days.
It was good to Know inn ner
contact with the outside world
had been re-established. Good to
know that her magazine wanted
her. For a fleeting moment she
thought of Sandy. It was so un
like him to let her down.
Maybe he was asking the Gor
dans to help him so he could in
crease his $1000 and help her.
Yes. that was it only she would
new accept help from any of
Sandv could take that rush

She went to Sleep

bered Sandy, tried to hate him,
Tendered why she couldnt, then
