DAGGER Dahlberg by Mary Synopsis: Dagger Marley, 16-) year-old niece of a Te: rancher near the Mexican border, rescues| Blaine Howard, an American va abond soldier of fortune, from a band of Mexican insurgents. It de- velops that Howard was once a famous polo player, as was Dick Welling, now crippled by loss of an arm, a foreman on the ranch of Dagger's uncle, Jim Marley. How- ard and Welling have heard of each other, but both seem to have some bitter memory of which they do not wish to speak. Howard lin-| gers at the ranch ger at polo, riding a bling, thereby winnin and admiration Instinctively, she nestied mnto the crook of his elbow.
