THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1940 eye - = aw ow By Ann D YESTERDAY: Norton tries go- ing down the drain pipe and it crashes to the ground. Miss Wells asks permission to go to the movies, but is trailed to the apart- ment of a man named Perry. Chapter 16 Charles Whitefield: ORTUNATELY for me someone knocked at the door. The Ser- geant crossed the room and ad- mitted a man I hadn't seen before. As he came in he said gravely, “Mr. Kimball tells me I’m wanted by the police.” “What's your name?” The Ser- geant regarded him coldly. The man drew off his heavy gloves and rubbed his hands to- gether briskly. “It’s damn cold out,” he said easily. Then, looking at the Sergeant, he said, “The name is Charles Whitefield. I live in the third floor front apartment.” There was a faint smile at the corners of his mouth. “I’m an artist, thirty- three years old and,” he added piously, “I’m not married,~thank Heaven.” His smile was obvious now and his tone held too much levity for the Sergeant to digest in comfort. I was finding Mr. Whitefield inter- eee He was a short, thin fellow in a blue chinchilla overcoat that covered him from neck to heels. Except for the coat, there wasn’t anything to distinguish him from a hundred other men. “What do you know about this?” the Sergeant asked. Charles Whitefield waved a newspaper under the Sergeant’s nose and said, “Only the little that the papers had to offer, but enough to learn that you must be the Ser- geant Long of the Homicide Squad.” % He bowed politely, but the Ser- geant, seeing the twinkle in his eye, flushed. Personally I found the man more refreshing than the other inmates, but the Sergeant looked at him with an accusing eye. “Where were you last night?” he asked. And then I wondered if I were mistaken in thinking that behind Mr. Whitefield’s nonchalant look there was a wariness. But he an- swered without hesitation, “In my apartment.” “All evening?” “Right. I got in about seven and didn’t stir out again until this morning.” He bent down to brush the snow from his shoes. “Did you hear anything unusual during the evening, or particularly between eleven and one?” ‘The man.seemed suddenly bored with the questioning. “No,” he said and lighted a cigarette, looking at Dirck and me with mild interest. The Sergeant shot out the next question. “Who was, with you?” If the artist hesitated, it was only for an instant. “A girl.” “Who?” He smiled. “I prefer not to say. Anice girl, though. She didn’t mur- der anyone.” “I'm the one to decide that.” By this time I had scant sym- pathy for the Sergeant. He got very | little out of people because he made them angry right away. Mr. Whitefield faced him now with a stubborn look, apparently deter- mined to say nothing. With an irritated gesture Ser- geant Long walked to the window, gnawing on his cigar. Dirck fum- bled in his pockets for his cigar- ettes, lighted one and then said in a casual voice: “I can understand how you feel about giving the lady’s name, but since she obvi- ously had nothing to do with the murder, you would be doing no harm in telling it. Besides, we've accounted fairly well for the com- ings and goings of everyone in the house and it might be some help to the Sergeant.” He leaned forward earnestly. “You see, she might have seen someone and we could do a little verifying of time” Whistling In The Dark? os Sergeant turned away from the window. “What time did she leave your apartment?” The artist answered him sul- lenly. “I really forget, possibly.a little after midnight.” “It must have been later than that,” Dirck said quietly. “Her room-mate got home at twenty past twelve and she hadn't come an yet. Charles Whitefield’s jaw tensed and he looked at Dirck swiftly. Saveignens oa F | | jemarest The man shook his head, and the | Sergeant seemed to lose interest. He told him he could go, but not to leave the house without per-| mission. | After Mr. Whitefield left the Sergeant turned on Dirck furi- ous. ve “You didn’t tell me she was | up there.” | “I didn’t know for sure,” Direk replied. “It was just a hunch.” “Wait until I get hold of, that young lady,” the Sergeant said with a grim smile. “Out dancing, was she?” Then I remembered the person who was crouching on the stair- way. “Who could that have been on the stairs last night?” I asked them. “Mrs. Evans was out until midnight. The MacDonald boy was on Long Island, and Mr. White- field is the only other person on the third floor.” | The Sergeant favored me with a kindly look. “We'll turn you into an investigator yet. Adrianne Wells was so busy tak- ing a drawing lesson, she wouldn’t | | t who was it?” He picked up his hat. “I’m up to see Whitefield again. He must be deaf if he didn’t hear all that commotion.” And then Dirck and I went back | to my apartment. “Is candlelight kinder to your complexion,” he asked as he slumped into a chair by the fire- place, “or do you always sit around | in the dark?” I put another log on the fire and paid no attention to him. He lighted a cigarette and smoked for awhile. “I wish we could get hold of some of these missing men,” he said after a couple of minutes. ‘A Faint Idea’ ‘D2 YOU suppose all of the missing men did it?” “Probably none of them. It’s my guess,” he said lazily, “that it was Ishi, the Jap, who’s been upstate for a week. He did it to get her diamonds.” I looked up. “Did she have dia- monds?” | “No, but it’s as good a theory as the Sergeant has to offer.” I leaned back in the chair again. If Dirck knew anything he wasn’t giving it away. I tried to figure out a logical reason for murder. Frag- ments of the interviews would creep into my mind. Adrianne Wells knew something and Mary Ann was too composed when the Sergeant asked her about Joan’s half- or step-brother, or whatever it was. I never could keep them straight. For a moment or two I'd think I had an inkling and then the whole thing would tangle up again. I wondered mostly «about Richard MacDonald and yet I was pretty sure he was honestly upset about his sister. After five minutes of heavy thinking I couldn’t restrain my curiosity, so I said, “Have you any idea who’s responsible for all this?” He smiled slightly. “I have a faint idea, Miss Howarth, but how I can ever prove it is more than I | know. That man Lathrop bothers | me. From what I know of him he isn’t erratic in the least, and why he hasn’t shown up at his hotel all night gets me.” He jumped to his feet. “You must be starving. Where do you want to have dinner?” “Anywhere but the Knife and Fork,” I said promptly. “I've had wheat cakes there twice. Last night and this morning. I'd like a bear steak or a side of beef.” * He groaned. “I knew you'd be | hungry, so I cashed a check on the | way up here this afternoon. Put on your bonnet and we’ll go to a high-class place on Fourteenth Street. The steaks are four inches | thick and the fried onions are something to cry over.” “T’m on my way,” I said. “Steak will be fine and I want at least ten | vegetables.” “Somehow,” he said thought- | fully, “such a large appetite doesn’t seem to go wih that fragile look you have.” “f always fool people,” I said, Paiting on my red felt hat. “That’s why I’m not popular. It’s itoo ex- + pensive to feed me.” = He helped me into RY coat. “There is one thing I'd like to do before we go. There are some | drawings of Joan Kent’s in her room that I’d like you to take a look at. I don’t know a thing about | them, so 1 can’t tell whether | For a minute I didn’t quite grasp what he meant, and f think the Sergeant was dumbfounded, too. Then it dawned on me that Adrianne Wells had been up in his apartment. I wondered how Dirck knew about it, or whether he was whistling in the dark. guess she did leave a little later,” Whitefield admitted. “You see, I was giving her a drawing les- son and the time passed very quickly.” they’re good or not.” “If we don’t hi I'll eat two | steaks,” I said, “but for a small | sum I’m willing to enlighten you | on the world of art.” As we went down the hall Ij asked, “What will the Sergeant | say if we poke around in there?” “He gave me a key, Beautiful. He thinks I’m harmless.” | He unlocked the door to Joan’s apartment, “You know, I thought the Ser- ¢ Tushed Gonzalez. to By OSCAR L.

In the fifth stanza, Chino thought it was time to cut loose so he blasted Fernandez with a wild blow to the chin. The Ybor City lad reeled to the mat for a count of nine but picked himself up from the floor and tore at Hernandez with a “business meaning” in his eyes.
