Through years of cheap stock and her teetering seasons on Broadway she'd learned by too many smashed hopes that an ée- tress couldn’t count on a vehicle until after the curtain went up opening night. When she talked it over with David Norris, ne seemed as disap- pointed as Noel. “Haven't you had enough ot this Broadway pay, + go - round?” he asked. “Neel, lear, why don’t you for: rget ihe mnote Messy busi- ness and marry me now?

You un- derstood that from thet beginning.” She almost added, “And more than ever, I’m not sure I want to marry you at all.” David was still petulant about her Christmas plans, tried to per- suade her to stay in New York.
