“Where shall w; go?" aaked Duke. guiding Valerie through the theater lobby.

"I don't care. just so there are bright lights and gsyety-" she said. "I want to feel lie a ti- eated New Yorker ' ““"

Duke laughed. “D0 you?"

As they emerged onto the ltreet. a cold wind struck them. Valerie who wore only a cheap cloth coat over her evening gown, ahivened and humcd the coat closer about

Duke. noticing her shiver. hur- ried her into a taxicab at the curb

"What you need is a fur coat." g: said. as he climbed in beside

That remark brought Valerie up sharp Was he hinting that he would like to give her one? He!’ mood suddenly changed and. when he tried to take her hand. she pulled it away from him.

‘Maybe I'd better not go to a smart place, after all." she said. "I'd forgotten that I'm not really properly dressed Let's find a quiet place. I guess I'm not in the mood for iznyeiv after all "

Duke glanced at her. "You sure

change your mind quickly, but all n‘

right-whatever you My."

He lit a cigarette and puffed on it .1 mirruh.

“You're a funnv little th ." he mused. “I guess that's why I ike you."

"r like you too. Duke," Valerie answered

But did she really Ike him. she wondered Orr was she just pre- fending because Terry's praise of Storm Kane still rankled?

Later, when they were seated in a Quiet corner of a small supper club. Duke brought, uputhe subject of the Nomad advert menin.

"Have you changed your mind about letting me suggest you for the Model?"

“No. I haven't.” Valerie told

He shook his head "You're the stubbornest person I ever knew. Whv should you bothers so much about Dot? She's been around enough lo unilerstand that it's every girl for herself in the model- ing game."

"The point is that she was led to expect the job and then was let down." said Valerie. "Naturally she resents that. Now, if the job were given to me. I'd feel that I was taking something away from her "It doesn't seem right."

You wouldn't be taking anything away frcm any one because Dot . no longer a contender-she doesn't dually for the new stuff the"“e planning Or look at it this way-everytrime you get a. job in this town, you take a job away from someone else.

Duke shrugged. "Suppose you do get a job that way, it wouldn't “gs; nearly as much for you as Nomad chance.

His arluments were very persua- sive. Valerie found it hard to re- sist them. Suppose s_he passed up this wonderful opportunity and then was unable to get mother job? There was the money she owed Torry. She wanted to repay as soon as possible. Being in debt to him for an extended peri- od would be unbearable.

“Gfive me a little more time to think about it," she to Duke. “Let ms see how I make out at the style show."

"Say! I hear you were out with Duke Maxwell last wee," Helene begun. when the two girls were alone for a few minutes between classes.

“Well. I'd say ou‘ve t a swell break-Jmowing grace axwell. If he bucks you-J’

“No one needs to back me," Val- erle cut in sharply.

Helen eyed her narrowly. “is that so? ‘There's talk around the school that some man‘ staked you to your training. We've all been wondering who it was."

Valerie flushed. "And now, I suppose, you think it's Duke Max well?" she said angrily. "Isn't it my business how I pay my bills." Helen looked injured. “I simply told you because I thought you should know that the girls are talking. _'I‘hey've heard that some man paid for your training and. when you're seen out with Brie Maxwell. who has plenty oi’ money. they naturally draw conclusions."

Valerie regretted having spoken angrily . for she didn't want to antagonize Helene. who was her best friend at, the school.

“I didn't mean to lose mv lem- per." she apologized. “but. Duke Maxwell is not paying for my training. I wish you'd tell the girls that and stop their gossip"

She‘ thought it best not to say anything about Terry and his loan. fearing that Helen might not un- derstand.

"Sure! I'll be glad to!" said Helen smiling. “Leave it to me- I‘l1 hush them up."

Mr. Brownell made his state- ment in commenting on in the current issue of Life Maga- zine which said Gov. Dewey knew during the i944 campaign. that the late President Roosevelt had been forewarned of a Japanese attack. 00v. Dewey decided not to use this information, Mr. Brownell said. after Gen.
