Several hoys have been used in this position, but none have shown the calibre or ability of a first rate block er. Tex Edens, a two hundred pound er ,at times has shown himself to be pretty good in this department, but there are other times when he is less consistent. Red McCarthy and Dalis Morris, a sophomore and junior respectively, have also been tried at this place, but both are rather small for such a large assignment. Morris is the more ex perienced of the two —having won his letter last year as a halfback. Todas)G<lm'es| AMERICAN LEAGUE Cleveland at Washington. Chicago at Philadelphia. Detroit at New York.

Worth is not a brilliant guard in that he does the spectacular but when it comes to steady line play, he has everything that goes to make him one of the really outstanding play ers in the Southern Conference.

Among those attending Carol’s birthday party are her cousin. Kathy Prentice, and her fiance, Dr. Owen Craig, whom she is marrying for social prestige. Unattractive Carol, who knows nothing ot parties, pretty clothes and beaux, secretly ad mires Owen. Carol astounds her old nurse when she tells her of her plan. In New York Carol looks up Isobel Bronson, an old school chum now in the real estate business, to obtain help in finding an apartment. Isobel suggests a cocktail party and eagerly helps Carol purchase proper clothes for the occasion . Carol tastes her first cocktail and meets Gary Cran dall, attractive playboy, who shows an interest in her. He suggests they leave the party. (NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY) I CHAPTER 6 CAROL SAT stiffly beside Gary In the low-slung roadster and wondered what would happen when she had to talk. What could she say? ••Friend of Jeannie’s?” Garry broke the silence. “No. I was with Isobel Bronson." “Good egg, Isobel,” he commented, ""lots more sense than most of that crowd.” "Then you like girls with sense?” she asked timidly. “Please, lady.” Laughingly he pretended to ward off a blow, “Not too much sense. Where do you sup pose I’d get off in a.case like that?” Carol appraised him and then: “Why, I think you are . . . are very attractive.” “And I see that you are a lady of very good taste and keen apprecia tion.” Gary was not unused to com pliments but there was something about the sincerity in Carol’s voice that was unusual. He studied her silently for a few moments before he said, “Where have you been and what do you do?” “I don’t do anything but I mean to. I mean I don’t go to parties and I don’t . . . well. I’m going to get a job.” Oh. Lord, another one. he thought, and she’s going to wonder if I know anyone I can send her to. “What sort of work do you do?” he asked her. In a little lost voice she said, “I don’t know.” “Well, what can you do?” he tried again., “I can read and write five lan guages. I’m fairly well versed in the classics and ... I think ... I think I could sell something.” she finished. “Good land, child, you can’t live in New York on a salesgirl’s salary." “I don’t think I’d have to. You see I have a little money.” “That’s just dandy and here we are at Tony’s. Hop out. “This by any chance wouldn’t be your favorite bar, would it?” he tossed over his shoulder as they en tered. “I haven’t any. I’ve never been In one.” she confessed. Gary felt like an anthropologist. What a tale this would make! They found a secluded table. Gary pushed aside the flowers better to look at the girl he had invited for no reason he could think of now. “I suppose you’d like something pink and pretty?” he asked. “Will you order something for me, Mr.. Crandall? Something that will Citizens Bank & Trust Co. Henderson, N. C. !* • • . . • ' ;• i Letter To Tobacco Growers I Along with you, we look forward to the opening of the Henderson tobacco market, on Tuesday, Septem ber 17, —because there is every indication right now of r - another good year for the growers.

S*= —This bank will remain open during the Tobacco Season until sales are completed on the warehouse floors. “Where have you been and what do you do?” make me feel . . . careless?” Mr. Crandall gasped. What did she mean, “careless”? . . This afternoon, I had my first cocktail at that party and I didn’t liko the way it tasted," she enlight ened him. “Ilm not surprised. Those cock tails‘tasted like epicac. Suppose you try a* brandy and soda?” Canol would have tried a little gall and wormwood at that moment. She- wished he’d say something be cause .she found herself tongue-tied. Deftly he poured the contents of their glasses into a golden whirl and raising this glass to hers said: “To our first drink together. Here’s hoping it inspires confi dences." “Yours will be more Interesting than mine;” she ventured gravely. He put his glass down and began to speak earnestly, “Believe me. I don’t ask from idle curiosity, but will you please tell me how it happened that you’ve never had a drink be fore ?” “I really don’t know,” she ad mitted. “but you see I haven’t been around very much except at college and traveling around the world.” “Not been axound much? I see.” He said it quite as though Carol’s explanations was reasonable. “How old are you. Carol?” “Twenty-four yesterday.” "And what are you going to do with your life?” “I’m going to come to New York, take an apartment and ... and get some new clothes . . . different from these.” “I would,” he assured her. His words made her feel let down somehow. She'd been basking in the warm mellowness of the brandy and hoped she might look a little as she felt. She wanted this man to like her. Rather desperately she said, “I’m going to buy some backless evening gov/ns." He nodded approvingly. Encouraged she went on, “Red ones!” “Not all of them, surely, Carol!" he mocked. "Oh, no,” she answered gravely, “but most of them.” There was something pathetic about the girl. Gary studied th* loneliness in her face. “Are you unhappy, Carol?” he asked. “Unhappy? . . . why ... I don't suppose I ever thought about it be fore but lately . . . I . . . yes some thing strange has happened to me ... as though I were another per son." “Perhaps you’ve fallen in love,” ho said. “Oh, no,” she answered readily, “You see I don’t know any men ex cept my uncles and . . . and my cousin’s fiance. He’s a doctor.” “And the doctor? Tall and hand some?” he asked casually. “Yes,” she nodded her head vio lently, “very. He’s dark and . . . and . . . well I know what he looks like but I can't describe him." Poor kid. Gary said to himself, and then leaning across the table: “Hasn’t anyone ever made love to you? . . . haven’t you ever been kissed? . . . haven’t you ever known what it is to have a man’s arms tighten about you?” Her breath came a little faster but she said nothing. “Didn’t any man ever tell you that your eyes are like stars or that the perfume of your hair maddened him?” Carol grasped the edge of the table with her cold fingers and a hoarse ness broke her words as they earn® tumbling passionately from her throat. “Look at me! Look at me honestly ... at my mouth, my color less skin! Would any man find my eyes like stars or this hair madden ing to his senses! . . . ever!” Gary lit a cigaret and handed it to her. Deliberately he lit his own and blew its smoke into the air before he answered and then he spoke but one word: “Yes." She parted her dry lips to ask, “Why?” His voice was impersonal when he answered her, “The word is ‘how’ not ‘why’ and I shall show you how to become a fascinating woman.” /aro BE CONTINUED)
