On its side was painted “Codispoti Airlines.” I walked over to the air depot, there to find Marlene Loucks as chief hostess, and my old friend, Jerry, seated in the President's office. Stepping inside, I extended my hand in greeting and received a most cordial welcome from my old classmate, who insisted that I spend the night at his home.
