Paula dressed hurriedly, trying to shut out the melancholy burble of the rain in the spouting. Several of the girls were having late breakfast and talking excit edly of the stench bombing. Eag erly they turned to Paula for in formation, but the refused to be belpfuL "The less (aid about ft the bet far,1 she murmured. Paula gulped her coffee and left Protected by a transparent sreen rain cape, she walked to the hos pital. Tony was sitting up in bed. Ex cept for pain shadows under his eyes, he looked fit. He greeted Paula a bit shyly. "I was hoping you'd come, Paulia. I tried to talk them into letting me out today, but no go. I feel swell." -I'm glad you're okay, Tony," she smiled. "I I guess I was a little out of my head last night. If I said any thing I shouldn't ." "You needn't worry about that." Paula said, and changed the sub ject abruptly. "The weather's nasty." Tony said, "Chris was here early. He seemed to want to taik about last night, yet he acted as if he were afraid to. Do you think be might be protecting someone?" Paula started. . "Who, Tony?" He shrugged. "The League crowd, maybe. Chris met some of the boys from the house in the halL They almost got into a scrap. I tried to cool them down. If they go after the League now they'll play right into Big Barney's hands ... You know, Paulie. I've been lying here thinking and I've got Tenks doped out. Ever wonder why that shot of Kilo was light struck? If Big Barney hasnt an Interest in the scandal sheet Jenks works for, I'll eat it!" "You think Bill was sent here to make trouble?" "It's just another hunch. At any rate, we don't want him to get bold of this story." Tony, tossing restlessly as he spoke, had disarranged his pillows. Paula moved to plump them back Into shape. Tony protested, but she rolled him over and lifted the pillows. Beneath them was some thing that made her gasp a brijht blue scarf. Paulie, I didn't want you to' that," Tony said. In one comer of the scarf were raie initials C E. V. "It belongs ho Chris," Paula whispered. rWhere did you get it, Tony?" "I'd rather not say. It might not (be his." "Chris's middle name is Ed- rward." Paula said flatly. "Tony, Iplease tell me the truth." i "One of the fellows found it in Khe shrubbery beside the house." "That means . . ." Tony shrugged. "Chris might Save lost it days ago." "He he had it on the other iaftemoon," Paula was turning the feearf in numb fingers. Then she began to pluck at the silk. "Look here, Tony! These tiny strands of Scarlet wooL" I "What about them?" ' "Tony," Paula said, her hazel fcyes glowing, "suppose Chris (loaned this to . someone?" ; "Could be," Tony admitted. "But Iwhy ?" Paula tried to catch him off guard: "Did you see a girl last night when you ran out?" "Why?" Tony countered. "Okay, Tony, be a gentleman. But I know one person who wears a scarlet brushed wool sweater. I'm going to see her!" a TTILO SHERWOOD roomed at a private home in Cardman Center. She was In bed when Paula arrived, and came down stairs attired in an expensive black negligee. "Nice of you to return my call so soon," she said coolly. "1 sup pose you've come to tell me it's bad for Chris to be out on rainy nights?" ! Paula bit her lip. "You'd like (me to think he was with you all (evening? " "I can't see how It even con Kerns you." I "But I don't think Chris was. I (think, the night being damp and (chilly, you borrowed his scarf." Paula had the satisfaction of seeing Kilo stiffen. "You can't prove that." "Perhaps not," Paula admitted, "but we both know it's true." She bent forward, meeting Kilo's in solent gaze with her steady hazel eyes. "Let's talk girl to girl, Kilo." "You talk, I'll listen," Kilo said. "We're both terribly fond of Chris," Paula said. "I'm pretty sure you don't want to see him in trouble. Some of the boys from Tony's house know about the scarf. If Dr. Van Horn finds out . . ." "Van Horn won't do anything." Kilo was contemptuous. "He's too much afraid of losing his job to stir up any trouble." "I think you're wrong about the 5octor. But even if he doesn't do (anything, Tony's friends will. They ffnight give Chris a beating or even un him out of school. Kilo's face lost color. "You're only trying to frighten me. her wouldn't dare harm Chris." "jney wouldnt dare harm a flrl," Paula said quietly. "Tell the utn. Kilo." Kilo arose abruptly, "It won't ork, she said. I just don t (frighten that easily. Come again (when you can slay longer." MAKE READY. r ACK at the Gamma Tau house " Paula found a letter from her father. He had been called to New Oilcans on important business and wouldn't be able to come to Card man for Commencement, but he enclosed a check to compensate for his absence. The following morning when Paula went to the hospital the re ceptionist told her that Tony had been discharged. "He left just a few minutes ago. Miss JefTers. I think he has an appointment with Dean Larson." Paula flung herself out the door. Half way across the campus she found Tony. "I'm kind of wobbly yet," he grinned. "Tony, where are you going?" Her startled eyes saw the strip of blue silk that protruded from his pocket. "Why. to tell Dean Larson about the bombing. He sent word to the hospital that he wanted to see me." "But the scarf. Tony?" Paula asked. "You're not going to show that to Dean Larson?" Tony said kindly, "Look, Paulie. I've talked everything over with Dr. Lud. Confidentially, of course. We figured it was best to give Larson the facts." "And put all the blame on Chris!" Paula flared. "Tony, I tell you he didn't hit you. It was . . . well, it wasn't Chris." "Something's got to be done." Tony said gravely. "Larson and Van Hom are trying to get to the bottom of this trouble. We owe it to them to give them all the in formation we've got." "And you call yourself Chris's friend!" A furious resentment boiled within Paula. Tears of dis THIS CURIOUS WORLD in 1940, I 45S cj ire o 3 . ; -riF5S7?
