9 i 7 S 5 232 ?i1-At hate Iulie lay on her bed crying and wishing she were dead. She was thinking of her date last night. You see Iulie had had her eye on Ieriy Dixon since she had entered high school. To her Ierry was the handsomest, best dressed and . . . well, to put it in a nut shell, he was her dream man. Now she was in eighth term and he had finally taken her out. That was not the reason she was crying. lt was what had happened on the date that made her feel so miserable. Julie had taken such pains in getting dressed for her date. In fact, it had taken her all day. Wlreii she was Hnished she knew that her toil had not been in vain because she looked lovely. Ieriy came promptly at eight. She had been ready since half-past seven but she waited in her room fcoat and allj for about live minutes before she came out. Iulie did not want to appear too anxious. Hello's were said and then they started down the stairs. Then it happened . . . Iulie caught her heel and toppled down three steps and landed in the clumsiest position imaginable! After Ierry picked her up they continued on their way. Ierry said they were going to the movies which was satisfactory to her. She loved the movies. S 24305 44

lfaal lilwlllrel Wlien the show was about half over, Iulie started to get hungry. This wouldn't be so bad if her stomach would behave, but it didn't. Every time she breathed, her tummy would hiccough. To her, it seemed louder than thunder. So she held her breath as long as possible, but every time she started to turn blue she had to breathe. No one was even more delighted than Iulie when that show had ended. It seemed to last for hours and hours and a person just has to breathe once in a while. Ierry suggested going for a soda. Of course, she agreed. He ordered a double-dip French strawberry soda and she, a double-dip black and white. VVhile waiting for the sodas, they talked about the picture they had seen, school, and other things. Then the sodas were served. Iulie was drinking her soda, but she was so absorbed in what Ierry was saying that she did not realize that she had finished it and the suction from the straw in the bottom of the glass made a slurping sound that seemed to resound through the whole ice-cream parlor! When Iulie's face returned to its natural color, Ierry had taken her home but he failed to mention anything about any future dates with her. That's why she lay there wishing for death and telling herself what a clumsy, care- less, fool she had been. Then the phone rang and she dried her eyes, blew her nose, and answered. The voice on the other end made her eyes light up, her sagging mouth turn into a smile reaching from ear to ear and her heart beat like a machine gun for it was Ierry . . . asking her for another date! ! !
