Match SCORE WAS 5-4 Combined Banks Team Won From Chateau 10-3 The Huntingdon hockey team played their best game of the season on Friday when they met and defeated a team made up of the Caughnawaga juniors and seniors.The attendance was good there being a very representative gathering from Malone and at The ice was in perfect con- on.In the opening stages things looked somewhat bad for Huntingdon due to poor combination tactics but half way through the first period Huntingdon scored by Cecil Tedstone.Shortly after the team pepped up and the game developed into a real thriller.In the final of this period French, of Caugh- naw-ga, scored when he got a loose puck.The game was real exciting in the second stanza with five scores having been made.Early in this period Chambers scored for Huntingdon with French to retaliate a minute later.In a scramble in front of the opposition nets Delisle scored for Caughnawaga and Jacobs shortly after from a shot at centre ice when he secured a loose puck.Ferry scored for Huntingdon making the game 4-3 for the visitors.Both teams worked with very determined efforts in the final period but the locals showed their superiority by tallying twice and then playing such a defensive game to hold their opponents from scoring.The scores in this period were made by Bret Lunan and Earl Tedstone.The visitors made a mistake in the road which held up the game considerably but spectators were well repaid with a close match and a clean one as it was not necessary to mete out any penalties.C.M.Oney refereed.Caughnawaga Huntingdon Goal Laborgne

representing the Bank of Montreal and the Bank of Commerce against the Huntingdon Chateau.It had been decided previous to the encounter that certain \u201cprospects\u201d would not be allowed to play.However, the banks worked a clever ruse.They were ready to go on the ice but they were one man short.Pete Carl- sen, manager of the Chateau team gave in, and allowed the banks to play Elliott, which he should not have done, neither should Daniel have played in this class of hockey.The Chateau attempted to retaliate in the final stages of the game by putting on Beaudin but his work was ineffective.Referee Oney couldn't wait for all the Chateau players to get on the ice and again Carlsen agreed to let the game start with the result that two goals were scored against the Chateau in the first half minute \u2018of play.There were rumours to the effect that Carlsen had been \u201cbought off\u201d by the banks and anyone seeing the game certainly would have thought so.One thing certain is that Carlsen spent the week-end in the city but it may have been to get pointers from Hains- worth and Kerr.With a shake-up on the Canadiens team it is possible that he was called in by Leo Dandurand We have interviewed Pete in connection with this report but he would not commit himself.After three periods of play in which the banks had the upper hand, the game ended 10-3 for Capital.It would have been much more interesting had Elliott, Daniel, and Beaudin not played.The Banks H\u2019don Chateau Goal Bowden .Pete Carlsen Defence Ward

untrue, inasmuch as the milk cans are not supplied by the Montreal dealers but are furnished at their Former Huntingdon Pastor that they were unable to maintain the current milk price, viz: $1.60 per 100 lbs.beyond the end of January, and asked for a conference on the price to be held on Friday, Jan- vary 27th.On that date, in accordance with notice, the conference was held in the Board of Trade Building at 2.30 ip-m.Most of the large Montreal dealers and all of the Board of Directors of the Milk Producers\u2019 Association were The dealers asked for a new price commencing February lst, on the grounds that the milk supply on the market had increased greatly from December 1st, and was still increasing and that price cutting on their market both on the retall selling end and on the producing end had progressed to such a stage that it was necessary to lower the price all around.The firms which had been so short of milk in the early part of November stated that they now had an over supply and that the independent milk dealers were cutting prices drastically.No representative was present from Ernest Cousins, Limited, but the others insisted that they must buy milk cheaper to meet the competition of cheaper milk coming on the market, After a good deal of discussion on which the above statements were emphasized and substantiated by instances, an agreement was arrived at that the price to the producer would return to the $1.35 level, own expense by the farmers who sh» the milk, On behalf therefore of the large body of sl1.ppers who are Members of \u2018he above

dailies for the weekly newspaper reader.Thursday Following the decision reached at the last meeting of the Federal Med- lcal Commission and recent medical examinations taken in Ottawa, nine University of Montreal students not only are entitled to practise medicine in the entire Dominion but the group also obtained the highest average among aspirants from all Canadian universities.This announcement was made by Dr.J.T.Z.Parizeau, director of the university's medical school and assistant dean of the faculty of science while commenting upon the official report of the examinations received from Ottawa.- » .Friday Nine women psychopathic patients who fled in panic before flames that destroyed a dormitory at Ridgecliff Sanitarium in Cleveland early today were burned to death despite heroic efforts of nurses to rescue them.All of the bodies had been recovered eight hours after the fire broke out, but most were charred beyond recognition.The ruins were still smoldering when Dr.William Glen- denning, husband of the sanitarium\u2019s superintendent and a staff physician, branded the fire as of incendiary origin.At his request police and fire marshals took into custody for questioning a Chardon farmer with whom he said hospital physicians had been in dispute.Dr.Glendenning asserted the farmer had threatened his wife with death and yesterday telephoned the institution\u2019s offre and said: \u201cI'll get even if it kills me.\u201d : The shricks of the terror-stricken women, all suffering from nervous or mental disorders, rent the chill night air as the flames ate rapidly through the frame dwelling.The smoke and heat soon became so intense that entrance to the cottage, in which twen- ty-four women patients and three sanitarium employees slept, became impossible.\u201d - .The Week-end The League of Nations Committee of Nineteen rejected Japan's conciliation offer Saturday morning as falling far short of the basis deemed necessary for a friendly settlement of the Chino-Japanese conflict.It continued then the work of drafting a final report by opening general discussion on its latest and gravest chapter, giving the League's recommendations for settlement of the conflict if conciliation fails.It will continue, as no decisions were reached and none of the great powers participated in this exchange of views or otherwise unveiled their hands.The discussions revealed these tendencies among the small powers: To divide the recommendations into those for the parties to the dispute and those for other League members, to base the former on Chapter 9 of the Lytton report.They also wanted to include the latter an injunction not to recognize Manchukuo and an invitation to the United States and Russia to consult with the League Assembly, as Kellogg-Briand peace pact signatories, on the situation which would be created by the Assembly's adoption of this report, particularly if Japan rejects it, as is ex- ) pected.» * » + Three persons\u2014a Nazi leader and two Reichsbannermen \u2014 were killed and about 30 were injured Sunday in political fights in several parts of Germany, Their deaths brought to more than 20 the number of fatalities in Nazi- Communist knife and gun battles since Adolf Hitler became chancellor last Monday.Nearly 100 others have been wounded, not a few seriously.And while these skirmishes were going on, executives of various parties were laying plans for pre-election campaigns.Herr Hitler was on his way to Munich to organize a campaign.° .Monday Encouraging figures for the dairy industry in the province of Quebec during the first 11 months of 1932 are given todav by the Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture, the figures being those of their own statistics section.This branch, established by Hon.Adelard Godbout, gives figures far in advance of those available under the old system, and the service is a monthly one.For the 11 months of 1932, 29,135,- 368 pounds of cheese were produced as against 25,708,731 pounds made for the same 11 months of 1931, while there is a drop in butter production.the production for the same period being 58,652,252 pounds in 1932 and 62, 213,926 in 1931, an increase of 13.3 per cent in cheese production and a decrease of 5.7 per cent in butter.The November production was 513,- 247 pounds of cheese as against 1,- 200,253 pounds for the same month in 1931, and 3,813,301 pounds of butter as against 3,711,206 pounds for November of 1931.The butter figures do not show a production of 3,384,171 pounds produced in Montreal for which no but- ter-fat statistics are available.* .While the French plan for disarmament was being abandoned by some of its best friends, Maxim Litvinoff, soviet delegate to the World Disarmament Conference, today proposed to amend it by incorporating a sweeping definition of an aggressor.So Strict was the definition that an invader or attacker under any pretext whatever would be subjected to international penalties.The soviet representative offered ac his contribution toward security a definition of aggression which would place blame upon a state which had used armed forces against another country under almost any conceivable circumstances.Backwardness, maladministration danger to life or property of foreign residents, internal disorders, boycott.repudiation of debts, the presence of different political, economic or socia\u2019 order\u2014none of these conditions would justify a military attack according to the programme the Russian suggest.He asked the general commissio to adopt a declaration embodying th?definition.M.Litvinoff\u2019's declarations for «- moment startled the conference inasmuch as his definition df an aggres sor in many respects paralleled th policy of Japan in Manchuria.Detailing his definition, the Sovir member said that any nation the declares war against another stat invades another state without declar ing war, bombards the territory « another state, or establishes a nav\u201d blockade of another state should k termed an aggressor.* .The last remnants of Prussia\u2019s av tonomous rights as a federal sta\u2019 were decreed away by President ve Hindenburg today when he vest Vice-Chancellor von Papen, as Reir Commissioner for Prussia, with com plete ministerial powers.This er abled Colonel von Papen to cast tr vote which today resulted in the

On Friday, Feb.3rd, a doubleheader hockey game was played be- twen Gault Institute and local High boys and girls.The teams were wel- : comed by a large attendance and to show thei- appreciation played one of the fastest and cleanest games of hockey seen in this rink for several seasons, The girls game was the opening feature, with a one minute slience observed in memory of the \u2018ate Marjorie Hamilton, who was last year's goalie.The crowded arena was in perfect silence the girs in uni- fo'm on the ice at the alert as a token to show how she is sadly missed by both friends and team-mates.The gi\u2018ls' game was exc.ting and interesting, full of thrills and spills.The game ended in a tie 1-1 but no overtime was played as the giris had already been fatigued.Bernice Mc- Cartney got Ormstown's only goal but all the girls played hard, not forgetting Pat Hawley who held Valley- f.ed to a tie by defending the local nets, From the first minute of the boys\u2019 game through the one hour and twenty minutes a wonderful exhibition of speed skating and stick handling was witnessed by the enthusiastic supporters.Valleyfield opened the scoring in the first period by notching two quick goals but Johnnie Campbell was on his game, scoring twice before the period closed, The second period saw the purple and white and the ma-oon and white fight for 20 minutes of scoreless hockey.After about seven minutes of flashing hockey in the 3rd period, Merrill Smith scored, giving the locals a lead of one goal.This one goal lead was only held a few minutes before Valleyfie:d tied the score 3-3 and remained such until the final bell necessitating an overtime, called for by the league rules.Five, ten and fifteen minutes ot overtime was played befo-e the tie was broken by Campbell again giving O.H.S.the lead of 4-3 then Merrill Smith who had been trying his \u201clong shots\u201d all evening made it effective following Campbell's goal, the score being then 5-3 where it remained until the close of the game.The second line played well and the defence strong and John Smith proved dangerous to Valleyfield several times.Much credit must be given to Harold \u201cMick\u201d Mclean who gua-ded the home twine.He played well, making one spectacular save after another, long shots, close in shots, and numerous rebounds.He was pegged at from ail angles, especially in the over-time sess.on but never once allowed the puck to touch the back of the net.Winning this hard fought game means much to O.H.8.as they are now tied for first place in the league with Valleyfie:d It is expected that the play-off game will be staged on neutral ice later on in the season.The members of the High School teams wish to thank all the staunch supporters whom they appreciated seeing on all sides of the arena and are sure they enjoyed the clean, fast hockey by the \u201cYoung Hopefuls.\u2019 The line-up was: Ormstown Boys Gault Inst.Boys goal H Mclean .coooveee

record of the Quebec Curling Club, when they lost the Quebec Challenge Trophy to Buckingham curlers who piled up a 37-30 score and took the famous old mug back to Buckingham.Ormstown had won '8 matches 16 when they last held it, ap till the season of 1903, and 2 this season and had they held it against Buckingham would have cqunl'ed Quebec's 19 victories.Quebec presented the cup in 1874 fo- play among tho iron curling clubs of Canada and the cup has been sround amost all this region before coming under the jurisdiction of the Canadian Branch.Ormstown had nol been able to lio.d a match since they played at Caledon.a on January 6th on that occasion defeating Quebec 37-23.Play in the local rink was delayed by mild weather and Saturday's match began on good ice which grew soft before the 18 ends were done.Play in the ea\u2018ly ends was close and interesting with Baird and his rink capturing both the first and second ends with single shot margins.However R.M, Kenny's quartette replied by winning the third end with a two-shot count and thus the score was deadlocked at 2 all.Kenny again counted in fourth, with Ba'rd to forge ahead again at the fifth end when they chalked up a two shot count and thus led their on- ponents by 1.with one count turn about until Kenny in the tenth round succeeded In a three.Baird replied wits, ingle counts cach in the 11th and 12th, the score was deadlocked 8 all in the 12th end.in the 14th, 156th 16th and 17th ends Baird's steady count of 3-4-3-2 made a total of 20-10.The McGerrigle quartette had very uphill work, with a 3 count In the 1st and 2nd ends they were not able to count again until they marked up a 2 shot in the 8th and 3 in the 11th.The sco-e was then 13-8 in skip Bission\u2019s favor.In the 12th and 13th he made 3 counts each.McGer- rigles were able to count only a single shot in the 14th and 15th ends, and had to bow in defeat by a score of 27-10 which offset the 20-10 victory by Baird.leaving Buckingham 7 shots to the good.The players and scores were: Ormstown Buckingham 8.Cottingham M.Laforce H.H.Chambers J.H.Rowe J.W.Chambers H.A.Barends W.McGerrigle J.A.Bission 12000000203C011000\u201410

This last was addressed to the emerged from Dan's pocket.The kitten.balancing in Dan's two hands.1ooked about en this new world in which it found itself and emitted another \u201cMeow!\u201d \u201cCute, isn't it?\" Phillips asked.Cher-y had taken the kitten and was holding it nestled against her shoulder.The warm, soft fur touched her cheek.Tha girl's eyes were bright &s a child's.\u201cIt's adorable!\" she told him, \u201cDid you know I've always wanted a kitten?That's another thing 1 could never have at home.But where did vou get it?Can we really keep it?\u201d \u201cWe can if you want to.I stopped at the drug store on the corner for cigarets.There were four of these little fellows there with their mother.One was black and the others were sort of gray striped.I thought this one was the cut:st and the man said he'd be glad to give it to us, It's not quite a month old yet.\u201d The kitten se:med eminently contented with its perch on Cherry's shoulder.It was purring now\u2014a miniature sing-song that could barely be heard.\u201cDo you hear it?\u201d Cherry demand- « ed.\u201cIt's singing Oh.of course we'll keep it! Ana it was sweet of you to bring it, Dan.\u2019 She began to laugh.The kitten had raised one velvety paw and witn experimental gestures was investigating Cherry's ear.\u201cPut it down,\u201d Dan suggested.\u201cLot us see what it thirks of the place.\u201d Cherry set the kitten or the floor.It was comp:etly gray except for a white line down the centre of its forehead rounding out in a symmetrical arc of white about its nose and mouth.As though'aware of their seruiiny the little animal backed slowly away from Cherry and Dan, stopped and gazed up at them.\u201cWell, I'll be darned!\u201d laughed Dan.\u201cWould you look at the little beggar giving us the once over?\u201d Cherry was down on her knees beside the kitten again, \u201cI know what I'm going to call it,\u201d she announced.\u201cDid you ever see anything so pink as that nose?I'm going to call it \u2018Pink\u2019.\u201cThat's a swell name for a gray cat!\u201d \u201cWhy, I think it's a grand name\u2014 and anyhow that's what it's going to be.\u201d Their own neal was forgotten in their interest in the new pet.Presently.however, the kitten was left curled up on a pillow on the floor and Cherry and Dan sat down to dinner.Dan broke a roll and buttered it.\u201cWell,\u201d he said \u201cI had a piece of welcome news today.\u201d \u201cWhat was it?\u201d \u201cYour husband.madam.winner of the $5 bonus for the written news story of the week.\u201d \u201cOh.Dan.I'm glad!\u201d \u201cSo'm I.That five bucks will help out considerably in our financial staus.But that's not all, Two of the fellows who have been owing me for the last six months kicked in with $12 more.1'd forgotten about both of them! Yes, it looks as though we can pay our bills and stay out of debtors\u2019 .prison after all.My check Saturday will pay the rent for another month and this $17 will carry us over the week.\u201d \u201cIt's worked out wonderfully, has it not?\" Cherry asked.She sald it so fervently that the young man across the table looked up.\u201cI\u2014I had some news today too\u201d the girl went on.She told Dan about the check from her mother and about sending it back.When she had finished Dan leaned across the table and took her hand.His eyes were troubled.\u201cYou're sure you wanted to do that?\u201d he asked.\u201cOf course I could not have let you spend any of that \u2014_ Us wt TA mie A WY a - is the best money for our living expenses or for me but you might have bought something for yourself.Clothes maybe.Or\u2014whatever girls buy.\u201d Cherry laughed.ought to be so thankful\u2014!\" She told him about Miss Jamieson who had lived on the top floor and e recital of the story sobered both of them.For some time after the meal was now at the City Hospital.had ended they sat in silence.All nt once Cherry cried out, the kitten! It must be hungry!\u201d Little Pink's frond paws pressing against \u2018her ankle had startled the She filled a saucer with milk but the kitte:s was not interested.Try as\u2018 they would they could not make Pink drink until Dan filled a teaspoon and poured it down the kitten's throat.Pinky coughed, licked the milk from his whispers and de- girl.cided to try a gulp for himself.The Kkitten's antics kept them It attached to a string.It climbed into boxes and out of them and once, when Dan th-ew member to salt the potatoes and how amused most of the evening.\u2018chased paper balls down a newsnaver.the kitten crawl Cherry A faint cry.plaintive and high- interrupteg him.It came ya- peated, this time louder.An unm.s- let me see it!) wriggling ball of gray fur that had \u201cOf course not.silly.What could I be wanting!

After she was alone again Cherry got out her purse and examined its contents.There was $2.75 inside.On impulse she hurriedly changed to street ciothes.Pinky the kitten, was dozing on the window seat as Cherry softiy cléfed the door behind her and went down the stairs.She boarded a downtown car and rode to Twelfth street.Lawrence's fiower shop in the corner of the Wel- Ungton Hotel was where Cherry had always bought flowers.She reached the shop and paused before the window display.Tall, long-stemmed roses and exotic lilies filled three huge vases that stood on black velvet.They were beautiful roses.They must cost a great deal\u2014 Turning.the gir! walked down the street.There were other (florist shops.She would find one less expensive than Lawrence's.Cherry tramped for half an hour and finally was satisfied.She came to a small shop flaunting price marks all over its windows.\u201cRoses 75 cents.\u201d \u201clilacs 50 cents a bunch.\u201d \u201cIris 75 cents.\u201d Cherry entered and paid 50 cents for a large bunch of lilacs.\u201cWe don\u2019t deliver, ma'am,\u201d the clerk told her.\"That's extra, It'll cost 25 cents to have them delivered.\u201d Cherry paid the extra quarter.She wrote Miss Jamieson's name on a white card and the address of the hospital.On a separate card to be enclosed with the flowers she wrote, \u201cBest Wishes from a Friend.\u201d There was less than $2 in her purse (car fare had taken 10 cents) when she left the shop.\u201cThat means we'll have eggs again for dinner,\u201d Cherry told herself.\u201cDan won't mind why it happened.Wonder whether he'd like \u2018em fried or in an omelet?\u201d She was considering this problem and had almost decided to undertake an omelet when she recognized a young man coming toward her.Cherry stopped.There was a stationery store ahead.In another moment she would have entered it but the young man called out her name.\u201cWell, Cherry!\u201d he exclaimed.\u201cThis is certainly luck.Haven't seen you for days!\u201d \u201cI\u2014I've been shopping,\u201d she told him.\u201cIt's nice to see you again.\u201d \u201cYou don't say that any too convincingly.\u201d Max Pearson laughed, \u201cbut I've got a test, If you really mean it come and have lunch with me.\u201d wish that little away a good CHAPTER XXIV Max Pearson studied the menu.\u201cLike scallops?\u201d he asked.\u201cAll the sea food is very good here,\" How handsome he looked today.Cherry, meeting Pearson's eyes, glanced down again quickly at the card before her.They were in a restaurant new to Cherry.It was an attractive place obviously more expensive than the establishments she and Dan had patronized.Cherry looked about and noticed there were more men than women diners.All of them were fashionably, prosperously dressed, The restaurant had a subdued, quiet air that was a relief from the street.Pearson seemed thoroughly at home there.The waiter who took the order greeted him as an acquaintance of long standing.\u201cNow, then,\u201d Max sald when the question of food had been settled, \u201ctell me what you've been doing?\u201d Just the usual things, Trying to re- SAVES YOU FRO OF INTEREST TO WOMEN \u2014We are repeating, for a limited time only, the offer of a British-madè, 13\" aluminum ER of oaly 30 Oxo Cube Red Wrappers.M MANY cooking spoon for the return OXO Limited, S¢.Peter Street, Montreal + to open a can without eutting myself.Im still one of the world's worst cooks!\u201d \u2018You are\u2014'\"Peurson began and then checked himself.He did not finish the sentence but sald, \u201cWhere's that waiter?I want him to bring some matches.\u201d He begun talking of the office and Cherry was interested.The sense of wariness\u2014the feeling that she must be on her guard with Pearson\u2014left Ler, There was no use telling her:elt that she should not have been there.Cherry knew very weil that she was enjoying this luncheon.It wus pleasant to sit across the table from such an attractive, entertaining young man and {t was certainly a trrat to cat food that she had not herself prepavid, Yes she woes enjoying the luncheon.She told Max about the kitten and he scemed amused at her deseriplion, Somehow Dan's name entered the conversation, Cherry had a sudden inspiration.She lcaned forward.\u201cThere's something I'd like to ask vou,\u201d she said, \u201cI've wanted to talk to someone about it for a jong time, I believe youre the person.\u201d \u201cFire away!\u201d Pearson was holding a lighted match to the tip of his cigaret.His eyes, intent on the flame, did not waver.\u201cIt's about Dan,\u201d the girl went on carnestiy.\u201cI want to know if you think he can write, I don't mean just things for newspapers.I mean do you think he might be able to write short stories or a novel?Dan says there |s not any future for him in reporting.He wants to write for magazines\u2014 maybe books.Do you think he can do it?I dont mean right away but some Lime.Do you think he can do it if he works hard?\u201d The cigaret was glowing now.Pearson exhaled a cloud of smoke before he answered, \u201cThat's a difficult question,\u201d he told her.\u201cHard to say.Practically every newspaper man in the country \u2014woman too\u2014is sure that he or she can turn out the great American novel, All they need is a little time.A chance to get away from the grind and write.They keep talking about it for years but somehow few of them ever get anything done.Oh, I'm not saying all this about Dan, understand! I'm talking about the great majority.You see, writing is hard work.I know because I've sold a few things myself.\u201d He mentioned a couple of essays that had appeared in a magazine of Ligh literary standing.\u201cThey'd take more too\u201d he went on.\u201cbut I just cant seem to get tu work.Lazy, I guess,\u201d gq ou about Dan-\u2014\" Cherry persisted.\u201cHe's clever,\u201d Pearson went on \u201cDan's written some swell news stories, Has an original way to putting things.I don't honestly know if he'd be any good at fiction, though.I did not know he'd every tried it, The only way to find out if he can make the grade is to try.He'll have to be willing to work!\" \u201cThen.\u201d sald Cherry slowly.\u201cthat will have to be my part.To help him work.\" \u201cIt's discouraging.business,\u201d Pearson warned.\u201cEven the most successful authors get lots of their manuscripts back.When you're beginning you have to expect rejections.\u201d The gi-l nodded.\u201cI suppose so,\u201d she agreed.\u201cI suppose so.\u201d There was quiet between them interrupted by the appearance of the waiter.He placed ices before them and poured the coffec.\u201cLook here,\u201d sald Pearson briskly when they were alone again, \u201cI've just had an idea.Didn't Dan say the other evening that you like to drive a car?\u201d Cherry smiled.\u201cI love it!\u201d \u201cThen here's my idea.That bus of mine stands in the garage more than half the time.I never use it during the day except on Wednesdays.That is my day off from the office.I'll tell them at the garage they're to let you have it whenever you want it.\u201d \u201cOh, but I couldn't\u2014!\" \u201cCouldn't what?You could certainly drive it, and there isn\u2019t a reason in the world why you shouldn't.Dan's one of my best friend, you know.I'm sure he'd like to have you get out more.\u201d \u201cIt's awfully kind of you,\u201d Cherry said, \u201cbut I really can't.\u201d \u201cYou mean you don't want to?\u201d Obviously he was hurt.\u201cIt isn't that.I mean\u2014well, I don't think I should.\u201d \u201cOh, so you're the sort of girl who thinks appearances ave more important than anything else?Well, what's wrong about you driving my car?\u201d THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER What indeed?Somehow Cherry couldn't answer the argument, Pearson had just given her a delicious lunch.She could not offend him.\u201cI'll do it.\u201d she agreed.\"It's\u2014cer- tainly very kind of you.\u201d He told her the name of the garage and where it was located, \u201cOne 0! the boys will drive the car out for you,\u201d he assured her.\u201cThey're darn- od obliginir.That's the reason I keep it there.How about using it this af- ternson?\u201d She told him she could not.She had left the apartment in a hur
