Tlus pestering usually ended m a brawl 1nvo1v1ng Lee Anderson Well Rodney is now a boxer I watched h1m vrgorously jumpmg rope and beatmg the hvxng day hghts out of a punchxng bag suspended from a tree limb He has a scheduled frght w1th Rocky Marctano and has been picked the ftghter most hkely to be knocked out in the first 5 seconds of the flght The butler Interrupted to,say that a M1ss Blame Draper had arr1ved and he thought that she might be 111 Elame was the one that was so quiet and when she d1d talk she squeaked hke an unoiled door When we entered the house, a noxse that sounded like a hurrrcane blowmg over the Gulf of MEXICO practxcally hit us in the face. lt wasn t a hurricane and Elame wasn t ill She was promenadmg back and forth before a large rmrror screechxng at the top of her lungs She informed us that she was a slnger at the P1zza House and the only way she could get a leave from her Job was to practxce s1ng1.ng. That was just what she contmued to do Rodney fmally Jomed the rest of us tn the livmg room. We chatted about world events for a whxle and then the butler announced Carl Gusie. Carl Joined m the conversatron and we learned that he was in a fight and lost all but lus two front teeth so he has a Job in a donut factory makmg the holes in donuts J on Grahn Floyd Grooms and Tom Hockm Jomed the party a httle later but they never men t1oned therr Jobs or what they had been domg 1n the last stx years It wasn t unul Pr1vate Detecuve Russell Khne arr1ved that we found out the details Russell told us that Floyd who runs Floyd s Fresh Fish Market as a front also manufactures transmissions for the cars they p1ck up off the street Jon Grahn who used to spend most of h1s t1me bumpmg the dents out of his own car has of late been bumpmg them out of the cars Floyd repairs Tom Just pamts and resells the cars I d1dn t know whether to believe h1m or not untll I caught Floyd trymg to remove the transmtsslon from my car and maklng an attempt at flling the sertal numbers off the motor Seems he brought a new transmission and enough pamt to re do the whole car Floyd hkes his work immensely wrth one excepuon Thls I learned was the fact that ,T on and Tom held out on the profits and he d1dn t get h1s usual share We found Tom and J on counting money out by the garage. Seems they Just sold Bob Mumford s car for hun although Bob didn t know ll They netted S900 from It and J on and Tom took S400 ap1ece but were generous enough to let Floyd have the rematmng S100 I thought xt was mighty fa1r of them myself.

Carl Gusre was talkmg about Larry Avery and we were all wondermg what happened to h1m after graduauon I m sure you remember Larry He rsathe one who used to hft Carl off the ground w1th one hand and then drop htm We d1dn't have to wonder very long for Larry came swoopmg down from a tree 1n the yard He entered the house and after several Tarzaruc yells he mformed us that 1S now playmg Tarzan lIl the movtes He gets most of h1s pracuce by swmg mg from tree to tree tn the c1ty park He also told us to look htm up someume because he practtcally hves Wldl the bxrds In fact he says he usually shares a nest w1th a couple of spar rows I dec1ded to go out onto the terrace for a lxttle fresh a1r When I opened the door I knocked the butler down and almost gave htm a black eye. lcertamly knew the butler but I couldn t place hun.
