Marines in the American League division of the} * Island Service Men’s Baseball cir- cuit. The victory placed the Coast Guard in a tie for first place with | the 50th Coast Artillery of Bort Taylor and the caliber of play put a new light on the loop’s race as} last night’s victors presented a classy combination which proved itself a definije threat for a slot| in the first division and _ possi a championship. | Kaczanow gave up four hits to the Marines in the first fywe in- nings, re rom the mound to} the right field and finally was, called back to quell a rally in the ninth when the Matines.had. two, runners, abeard,and the potential tying gore at hat. ‘ Thé Kewanee dad, liswever, took contro? of the situation in perfect style by making orfe batter ground | out to.second and fanning the} next one tq end the contest. It was by far the best game of | the week. The Coast Guard shoved | across a pair of runs in the first, | obtained three more in the fourth, | one in the fifth and one in the seventh for its eventual total. | The Marines started late, gar-| nering their first run in the fifth, getting another in the sixth and | two homers in the seventh off a re- | lief hurler for their four scores. | Coach Ensign Fred C. Pierson’s boys were led at the plate by; Wiles, first baseman, who had ay single and a home run to his cred- | it in three trips. The Marines were Shroat, third baseman, tained two singles and a circuit| blow in five attemp Woods, | right fielder, had two in four. | Tonight at 5:30 the Sound School will oppose the 50th Coast Artil- lery of Fort Taylor. The 50th C, A. | paces the loop by virtue of its 24-10 win over the 263rd and the Sound School, in its first appearance, played a 10-10 game against the Naval Operating Ba Tomorrow the ‘d will meet the Marines and aturday the Coast Guard will resume compe- tition against the NOB contin- gent.

And now Kathleen, to get Joe and his placard off the street, has asked him to breakfast, and much to Joe’s annoyance, somebody has telephoned Kathleen, and she is very obviously delighted. Chapter Four Date With DeMille O .” SAID Kathleen. “Fred DeMille roe to take me to the Country lub Saturday night.” “You mean that was Fred De- Mille?” Joe gasped, “Yes,” said Kathleen. Joe laid down his knife and | fork. He glared at Uncle Frank. “So they don’t get up this early!” he said. “The devil they don’t!” Kathleen, smiling happily, sat down. “I think I will ges some breakfast, after all,” she said ie cof- fee pot. “One egg—fried on one side—and two well-done slices of bacon.” “Yes’m,” said Lizzie. “I take your appetite, it would seem,” said Joe. “And the DeMille guy gives you one.” “Oh, I wouldn’t say that ex- actly,” said Kathleen. “But it does make a girl feel good to have people appreciate her. Fred said they were all so grateful to me for the way I’d co-operated with them getting the barn ready.” “Do tell!” said Joe sarcastically. “Just like in the movies,” he went on. “City slicker comes down to small town, says a lot of sappy | things to ignorant little country pei and she falls like a wagon ad of hay.” “You would have to say some- thing mean like that,” said Kath- leen. A heavy and unhappy silence fell upon the room. Joe sullenly finished his eggs. Uncle Frank looked at him, and then at Kath- leen, He felt that it was up to him to take over. “And although she knew Lliked bridge and swimming,” he said, “she wouldn’t join me at either.” “Who?” said Kathleen. “That actress I was telling you about.” “Oh!” “Then, believe it or not, a year later it came to me all of a sud- den why.” “Why what?” said Joe. z Hines she wouldn't play bridge fo swimming. £, a ig a pot Joe impatient- 4 kes he isa game that requires concentration,” said Uncle Frank. “And the actress didn’t like any- ing that took her mind off her- or ‘“But what about the swim- thing?” Joe wanted to know. { “That didn’t appeal to her, be- cause it meant she’d have to get mussed up a bit; you know, make- air, all that.” arned vain, selfish little ex- Ay hibitionist!” said Joe. No Help IGHT, sonny,” said Uncle Frank. “And to think, my own niece—my dear, dead broth- er’s only child!—plans to be a ike that.” “TI do not!” said Kathleen. “And if you must keep bringing up your past, Uncle Frank, 1 wish you'd do it somewhere else. Or go write your memoirs—and stop talking them.” Uncle Frank chuckled. “I might do that one of these days,” he said. He popped another calf of a ar into his mouth. “Meanwhile, £2, back to my chickens—the Fat ered sort. They’re safer.” When he had gone Joe gave Kathleen a hard look. “You ought to be ashamed of yourself,” he said, “Being so rude to your uncle.” “I wasn’t rude,” said Kathleen. “But I do get tired hearing him talk about his past.” Phone No. 8 “And he probably gets just as tired hearing you talk about the future,” Joe retorted, Lizzie - brought Kathleen’s breakfast. She gave the two young people a searching look, and was worried. It certainly didn’t look to her like they were getting any- where at all romantically. She went back to the kitchen, slowly shaking her head. “Of course you know I was counting on taking you to the Country Club Saturday night,” said Joe. “Don’t tell me you're going!” said Kathleen. “T’ve got to,” Joe said. “The edi- tor wants me to attend the recep- tion—since I'm to do reviews of the plays. He thinks the Chamber of Commerce’s reception to the actors and-actresses will give me a good chance to get acquainted.” “And you really thought of tak- ing me—a_ stage-struck little country girl?” “Sure. I can’t think of anyone else I would rather take.” “Oh, there’re other girls in Lin- ville,” said Kathleen, turning to her breakfast. “Girls who think the peak of happiness would be keeping house for a man like you.” “Thanks.” “Besides,” “how can you do your picketing, if you go to the dance?” “Td be _Willing to drop that for the evening,” Joe answered, “I won't have to picket—when I’ve got you in my arms.” “In your—what?” “Arms. Dancing, I mean.” Joe leaned across the table. “Is it all settled—you going with DeMille?” “Naturally!” “I see. Mind if I cut in now and then?” “Certainly not. Only don’t make an idiot of yourself, please, if Fred DeMille and Paul Pennell break in on you.” “Oh, so sone re gounting on the leading man, too’ “Of course. Paul Pennell has been very friendly toward me.” “I suppose you think that means he’s dreaming of having you for his next leading lady.” “Maybe.” The Boss Calls L IZZIE came in again. “Mr. Joe,” ‘ she said, “somebody wants you on the telephone now.” “Me?” said Joe. He jumped up. “Excuse me, honey,” he said to Kathleen, giving her a quick kiss on top of the head as he passed. It was the editor of the Linville Gazette calling. “What's this I hear about you making a fool of yourself out there on Elm Street?” he said. “You—you mean someone. told you?” Joe stammered. “Gosh, news sure does spread fast in this town.” “No thanks to you,” the editor snapped. “One of the printers just came in and told me he saw you marching back and forth in front of the Vaughan residence.” “Yes, sir, I—I just—that is, I—” Kathleen went on, “Well, you get down here to the | office at once,” the editor cut in. “I hired you to write néws, not make it.” “Yes, sir,” said Joe, Two receivers clicked back into their hooks. Joe went back to the dining room feeling decidedly foolish. Kathleen looked up. “Must have been sad news,” she remarked, “judging from the look on your face.” “It was the boss,” said Joe. “One of the darn-fool printers told him about me—and the picketing.” “You didn’t expect to keep it a secret, did you?” Kathleen asked. “No, only—oh, heck, forget it?” Joe stepped to Kathleen’s side. “fll see you Saturday night, if not before.” “Very well. I hope the boss won't be too hard on a “Oh, he won't!” said with too much assurance. “And listen, Kathleen—don’t believe all that man tells you.” “What man?” “Fred DeMille.” “Don’t be silly. I wasn’t born esterday.” Kathleen pushed back er chair. “You’d better hurry. REAL ICE Is More ECONOMICAL. . It’s Healthy and Safe. .
