PAGE FOUR JOSEPH BURNS FINED TUESDAY PLEADED GUILTY IN CRIM- INAL COURT ON CHARGE FILED AGAINST HIM OF STRIKING A WOMAN Yesterday afternoon Joseph Lewis Burns, charged with strik- ‘ing a woman, pleaded guilty at a special term of the criminal court and was fined $25 and costs by Judge William V. Albury. Burns is only 19 years of age, and has been in a _ most important branch of the Navy for two years. His executive officer told the court | that Burns had had a most excel- Jent record up to the time of his arrest. It developed, during the hear- ing, that he had overstayed his shore leave and had been drink- ing. Several times in the course of two days, he had met the wo- man whom he punched during a drunken quarrel. She is not a Key Chapter 27 About Paul T are you _ thinking about?” Ruby asked. | “About Laura, said Fred. “She's | pretty good at scenes herself.” _ | “Are you telling me?” said capt “If you'll forgive my slang.” f Laura could be in the vicini- ty of Ye Old Barn Drama Hoi while we're playing “ bye, Honey Chile!” maybe—” ae | “Fred DeMille, you're up to no. | ”” accused Ruby, She lowered oe voice. “You don’t happen to know where Laura is now, do i you?” “There are ways of finding out, my dear Watson.” Fred chuckled. “How about a stroll among the clover and the corn, before we step into the world of make-be- lieve?” ‘Td love it,” said Ruby. She drained her coffee cup. Presently she and Fred were walking across a field—hand in hand—and humming a funny lit- tle song about the silly cat that ate the canary. ... Just Tired? just because you’re worried or So! “Worried! Why should I be worried?” “You tell me.” “T’ve been rehearsing for hours and hours,” said Kathleen. “And I simply want to sit quietly—and think. : Mo ut your part?” “Gente ly. What else is there I could be thinking about?” “Paul Pennell — perhaps.” Joe Jeatied forward: There:was a tense expression upon his face. “Are you falling in love with him?” _ “Stop asking infantile ques- | tions! J j “And ’you ‘stop being evasive,” |. said Joe. He forgot Uncle Frank’s | advice to go easy with Kathleen. He was upset. He was angry. “After all, if you are falling in love with another man, I have a right to know. I don’t want it sprung on me out of the blue.” | Kathleen softened. “I reckon | you're right, Joe.

The coffee out at the theatre was pretty awful.” ‘ She walked on into the house.
