JAMES CARR needed V sound sleep this night and he didn't get much. He was too con sumed with thinking. 11 he hadn't' been a healthy young animal It might have told on him. "There's something screwball about this whole deal," he told himself, right after he left Lo raine at midnight They had talked in the mezxanine for more than an hour. "If she wasnt such swell somebody " , He never did finish what would happen it she wasn't such a swell somebody. He was sitting on his bed, one Army dress shoe off and one on. He still held the off one Id his hand, and he was staring t nothing. Wham! The shoe hit a wastepaper basket, skittered over and stopped beside a chair. Throwing it gave Jimmy a kind of release, but It was no way to treat a dress shoe. He picked it up again, inspected it, and rang for a bell hop. "Here's four bits, pal," he smiled at the boy, also giving him both shoes. "See that these look like mirrors in the morning." "Yes sir, sure. Captain Carr! Then he sat with his feet on the back of a chair, body sprawled on the bed. He envisioned Loraine Stuart Taffy hair in perfect or der. Lips and rouge and eye bus iness all perfect as usual. A swell somebody. Only, damn it she'd been drinking. He couldn't figure that He and Loraine had agreed that flying and drinking don't mix. Jimmy Carr couldnt understand anybody who didn't keep agree ments. Loraine's broken promise, trivial as it was, left him con fused. . The. truth was, he eouldnt see Loraine as anything but the lovely somebody she appeared to be. Un deniably she was beautiful. She bad been beautiful when he first net her at an aviation ball, and she still was. Oh, she may have had some faults, but who hasn't? Offhand he couldn't remember any of Loralne's. Until today, tonight, she had done a strange (thing. i1 "She never did explain how she 'came to be late for the start of the trip," he said. "I asked her. and she acted mad!" ; That dldnt snake sense, either; Army life runs with elbcklike pre cision. Eleven o'clock is 11 o'clock exactly. Even Loraine should have understood that And if she was so determined to make that trip, why didn't she telephone him if she couldn't make it? And most of all, why did she have to forge his name in order to catch up? Soon after his pilot friend, Ed Bryan, telephoned him from El mira, Jimmy went to sleep. If sleep it could be called. He was still upset about the whole situa tion. He was stni upset about it next morning at breakfast He felt bet ter physically, but he felt some bow awkward about starting with Pat and substituting Loraine as tus passenger (oing west "No, that's not fair," he argued. "Lorry got a dirty break at the start." TIE was trying valiantly to stand up for his fiancee in his own mind. Contrarily, though, he kept thinking of Pat with favor too. He remembered how Pat had been Stricken with stage fright as they approached Cleveland, and tried so hard to be nonchalant just talk ing about the city. Making her speech, she had still been like a school girl, at first Then he had teen her chin lift, and her violet tyes show a little anger, and Pat had made a good speech after all. In Chicago, she had wowed 'em. Had as much poise as a veteran trouper. He wondered what Pat Friday had done for a living before he found her. Or she found him. He grinned, remembering the way she nervlly took over his office that morning in New York City, bluff ing a whole string of other girls who wanted Jobs. And Pat had been the second fastest soaring pupil in his experience, the other being a boy who already had stud ied aviation. In barely nine days Pat had made a sailplane salute ' and say yes ma'am. ' The waiter came to his table with two morning newspapers, the first Jim had seen since leaving Elm Ira. "Sa-a-ay!" he beamed at the front pages. Pat Friday looking too cute for anything smiled at him from three-column pictures, and Pat had other poses, too. The soaring Bight had almost stolen the day's play from the war itself. Jimmy studied the pictures like a pleased boy. He hadn't known how pho togenic Pat was. She looked like a cross between Betty Grable and Judy Garland, only more so. Cut est of all was that astonished, half-frightened, half-happy pose where Fat was just getting into the sailplane at Elmira, after he had snatched ber up on the run. HEARTS IN THE CLOUDS, a headline writer had effused, over the pictures. And then added, be low, "Handsome young soaring expert and his beautiful fiancee, Mies 1" i "Hey!" Jimmy exclaimed. fGood jumping grief!" . The papers had muffed it Or somebody hud, They said this pic 4 - Canvriffht. 194 I a I J ture was his fiancee. Miss Loraine Stuart! When it was really Pat "Oh, oh, oh!" Jimmy was moan ing and laughing at the same time. The papers of course had been told that Loraine would be the passenger. Pictures had been taken in a terrific rush at Elmira, at Cleveland, and here in Chicago itself. Suddenly the personal Import of the error struck him, however. It wasn't funny at all, it was awful! And then, strangely perhaps, for a young man engaged, Capt James Carr's mind sought a way to protect not his fiancee but the other girl. "This is not fair to Pat!" he told himself abruptly. "Why why hell's-to-Betsy, that kid is tops! Look at the way she fitted in. The way she took over and saved my skin there at Elmira. . . . And an other thing, these pictures will be all over the country, pictures of Pat. so . . ." He had forgotten breakfast He sat there a moment more, star ring, thinking. Then on quick decision he went to a long dis tance telephone and placed a call for Elmira. When his party had answered, he said, "That you, Ed Bryan? . . . This is Captain Carr again. . . . Yep, in Chicago. Taking off in about an hour. Listen Ed. here's another order, and hang it all this one isn't forged. Ed, you're my friend, too. Now listen you go get Pat Friday, tell her I sent you, and you tuck her in an airplane and come chasing after me. Un derstand? Pat knows my route of travel. You help her catch up with us, at the earliest possible stop!" (To Be Continued) Always read the classified ads.
