The USS Gilmore will probably have their ace pitcher, Brooks, on the mound to try and stop the San Carlos, while Carr will be on the firing end. The.San Car- los will prebably use Diaz or Vidal to pitch for the San Car- los, with L. Griffin at the other end of \the»catching assignment. San Carlos will be considerably weaker this Sunday, as their ace pitcher, Bubber Sweeting, left for Boston on the USS Willet and may not return to the Saints for about six weeks. This may cause a considerable change in the league standings. i‘ The first game will get under way at 1:30 p. m., and will eom- plete nine innings.

Her ta golden hair and laughing eyes lent color to an already picturesquely tinted background for the hand-carved furniture and long-beamed ceil- ing were floridly decorated. Old Sven unbent sufficiently to relate some of the adventures of his timber-bucking days before the turn of the century. They were exciting tales well told, After the meal was over they went into the living room where a crackling blaze cast flickering shadows on walls and ceiling. Elsa turned the radio to a softly syncopated dance orchestra and Doug and Bill took turns guid- ing her around the floor. Old Sven, succumbing to the effects of food and wine nodded on the couch before the fire. After half an hour, the pro- gram, with one of those rapid transitions that startle even an inveterate dial-spinner, changed to a chorus of Scandinavian folk songs.

What’s wrong?” She dabbed hurriedly, at her wet lashes. ... “I know it’s selfish of me, Bill, but I’ve been trying not to think of Norway all day. I wanted to be cheerful yet his death haunts me. He was with us for five years and he always seemed to take a selighs in remembering my birth- ay.” _“He didn’t forget you this time either,” Hardin said gently. “What do you mean?” “Tl show you.” As the puzzled glances of the others followed him, Hardin went into the hall and returned with ; @ small rectangular package. waltzing with her, came to aj t SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1947 TROUBLE SHOOTER BY CAMERON DOCKERY “I didn’t want to give it to you until we were leaving, Elsa,” he explained, “I was afraid it might depress you.” Elsa's fumbled with the wrappings. a minute she held up a_ small _intricately-carved wooden jewel box.

If he had to die I wish it had been in fair fight instead of being shot down by a coward.” BENEATH his beetling brows his frosty eyes swept over them and Doug had an inkling of what the terrible just wrath of this modern Viking would be like once he was aroused. “He must have discovered something incriminating,” Elsa said. “There is no other answer.

His eyes sought Hardin’s and received an unspoken answer to his un- spoken question, then slid to the faces of the others. “Hardin and I think we know what Norway discovered.” “What!” The single word came from Elsa, Frawley and Sven. “These.” Doug held out the recently-found fuses. “Dynamite!” The syllables left old Sven’s lips like an explosion. “Yes, sir,—Hardin and I found them in the undergrowth near where the trail meets the river.
