PAQE THREE a MONDAY, MARCH 12, 1934. Judith Lane THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ns YOUR JEANNE BOWMAN SYNOPSIS: Judith Lane has re~ fre Diablo en- Ni ale, who is partner in the lato that Big Zam Bevin’ law busi- in ton. Bevins is an en- ineer and contractor, and just as completed the surveys for a dam on the Rio Diablo that will reclaim the valley and help the impoverished settlers. The boat bringing back the engineering party docks near the Bevin yacht, and Norman and Judith are by Norman's mother, who come to meet her prospective daughter-in-law the tender, in vacht’s Chapter Seven CLIA'’S NEWS [re Norman’s guidance Judith went over the side, stepped into the small boat and made her way to- wards Mrs. Dale. She was certainly handsome, Ju- dith thought. She had Norman's coloring, not a streak of grey in her hair. She was reaching out a steady- ing hand, and Judith, laying her sun- burned fingers in the firm pink palm, ‘was suddenly shy before the studied elegance of the woman who was talking steadily to put her at ease, “What a stunning looking child yeu are! I thought Norman said you were a business woman, down there. [f 1 kiss yeu now we'll both go overboard. I’m not built on skiff lines. Norm, this girl isn’t old enough to marry,” Judith regained her composure and smiled. “I’m willing to bet I'm Qore than ten years older than you were when. you were married,” she said, “You're a dear child,” was Mrs. Dale’s response to the compliment, “In case you're worrying about your slothes (not that you don’t look like a picture out of a book), your friend Clia is on board with—” “Cilia aboard?” questioned Judith, too overjoyed at having a friend in that desert of strangers to realize her rudeness. Clia Sanford could hold her own with a dozen Bevins women. “Yes, very much aboard. How- ever, | doubt that Ma'teel Bevins knew she was your best friend when she was invited.” She gave Judith a wise twinkling smile, which puz- ®i-* the girl. \. They were at the yacht's sido, and Judith was squaring her shoulders © meet the crowd surging to their see pt the yacht when she peard her ignd’'s voice high above the others. “Hello, July girl... look at her, do you Blame any man for sacrific- ing his freedom for that figure .. . and wait till you see her eyes. ..." Sho threw a friendly arm about Ju- dith as she stepped on deck. “EJOW do you do, Miss Lane? Your stateroom Is below to the left, third door.” Mrs, Bevins of- fered Judith a mechanical smile, then saw that Mrs. Dale had stepped up to slip an arm about her. “Oh, if you are going down, Both, I won't crowd things. Ma'teel seems to be taking her usual care of Norman.” Between Mrs. Dale and Clia, Ju- aith was swept below to a lusurious| room and after a quick tub came out to find them chatting over a Muffy array of clothes spread on the bed. P& Sit pie “Trousgeap gift,” explained Mrs, Dale, slipping a sheath of white sat- in and foamy lace over her head, “You got this too large, Clia. Look here.” “Judy,” scolded Clia, “you must have been lying out in the sun shriv- eling up. You're as thin as a rail.” “Short rations,” Judith explained; then, “What a love of a dress!” “Frock,” corrected Clia, tossing the plaid organdy over her head and pulling it into line. “Anything that | costs as much as this is a frock. | The white’s gorgeous against your tan, blue matches your eyes, and you need the red. Mrs. Dale, will you hand me that vanity ... no, not mine; she'd look like a pumpkin; there, that’s it...and somebody’s ; at the door.” Mrs. “Judy,” she said, turning back, “you'll excuse me if 1 go up, won't you? They need me for a bridge | foursome. Norman’s bringing you over tomorrow—” The door closed, and Clia sat back on her heels, “Well, what a fine mess you've got yourself into,” she barked. Judith smiled placidly. “Clia, even a wise woman like yourself tried matrimony before condemning it.” “Oh, tush,” snapped Clia. “Any- one with brains would snatch at Norman. But why couldn't you have waited until you came to town for the announcement? ['d have given you @ grand party, But there you went and sent those messages ahead to warn your enemy, for all the world as if you were afraid.” “Afraid ...enemy ,.. messages?” “ TUDY, listen. Day before yester- day every newspaper in town received a telegram telling of your engagement. [ telephoned Mrs. Dale, and she okayed it. Half an hour later we received @ second tel- egram saying the first was a noax te tease Norman, Dick Lorry, the city ed of our afternoon paper, asked me what I thought. I showed him | your latest picture, That was enough. away from me and ran it, first page, three column with a stream head line. It was on the streets at three thirty. At three forty-five Mathhile Bevins telephoned and invited me on this yachting party. Then yes- terday morning Mrs. J. Anthony Dale invited me on a shopping tour, She’d found out we were good friends. and said she figured. you ought to be given a chance to hold your own.” “But, Cilia,” Judith was complete- 1+ bewildered, “what's it all about? Who sent the second telegram?” “Judith, how well do you know your Boss’ daughter?” “Not well at all. She doesn’t like “Then let me give you a bird’ picture of her. A decade ago 8! have been one of these ‘but she’s such @ nice girl. She knew it, so she went abroad and bought trim- mings for the slightly singed varie ty She bad her face skinned, her hair silyered, changed her name from Mathilda to Mathie, pro- mounted Ma’teel, and then came back with the theme song ‘I must bave that man.’” “Clia,” laughed Judith, “what do you mean?” “This. Ma’tee) has had her eye op Norman Dale since their colored mammies let them squall in the same crib. Ma’teel probably igured she'd stand a chance if she could bush it until she got her hooks Into Norman. “Oh. Clia—" “And when you digest that I've got @ real earful for you. Listen. Norman's senior partner, Morton Lampere, is out to ruin your boss’ dam. Sit down and I'll tell you the detafis.” (Copyright, 1934, by Jeanne Bowman) Judith hears the story of Lam- pere’s plot, tomorrow. STEAMSHIP Co.

MILIAN | A wild throw to first base by, “Specs” Carbonell, Pirates, after, jhe had made a beautiful stop of Peter Castro’s fast grounder to! third, gave the Acevedo Stars a thirteen inning 3-2 victory over! the Pirates in the opening game! of yesterday’s doubleheader. Playing against a heavy wind blowing from the west that prov- ed cold enough: so that only some 50 fans saw the contests, the sec- ond game, between the Sluggers and Stars, went 12 innings, the score standing 7-7 when the game ‘ was called on account of darkness. Quintan Lopez, Pirate mounds- j man, held the Stars to four hits while Molina, hurling his first game of the second-half, checked the Bucaneers with three safe swats. The Pirates, starting off with a bad day on the field, gave the Stars their first score without a safe hit as Armando Acevedo, at ortstop, let the first ball hit to him get away, muffed a second one and the Stars’ first run of the game rolled in as Henry Mayg let Cheta Baker’s roller get passed him at second base. Peter Castro, at third base, Cheta Baker at shortstop, and Mario Pena, at first base, were the features of the game. Castro accepted seven chances without an error, Baker missed one in 11 tries while Peng snatched at 19 infield throws for as many put outs without a miss. Swain also played a good first base for the winners. The pitching of Lopez and Mo- lina was a great exhibition. The box score; First Game PIRATES ABR.
