Glecmings IT WAS a pleasant day for a cruise as I headed out toward sea in my small runabout. Overhead a lazy sun beat down upon me. I didn't have a care in the world. There was a cool breeze blowing that seemed to refresh me and every- thing it touched. Waves gently lapped at the side of the boat, beating out a rhythmic tune. After a while, I turned off the motor and let the boat take its course. Staring down into the clear blue water, I won- dered what its hidden depths could reveal to the eyes of the curious. The boat rocked softly as I walked from the rail to one of the deck chairs. I yawned sleepily and settled back for a nap. I had been sleeping for about an hour when all of a sudden my slumber was interrupted by a sharp jolt of the boat. The sight that greeted my eyes was one of horror. No longer was the sea calrn and peaceful but one of rag- ing fury. The light breeze had turned into a lashing gale. Water was splash- ing over the sides, and the boat was being thrown back and forth like a toy with all the vehemence of a summer storm. Never before had I seen a storm such as this. My only hope was that the storm would stop as suddenly as it had begun, but my hopes were to no avail. Quickly, I started up the en- gine and turned the boat in the direc- tion I thought would be the shore. Dur- ing the time I had slept, the boat had drifted way off course, For all I knew now, I might be heading out to sea. Then, from the other side of the boat, came a crash that could be heard above the roar of the storm. just in time I turned to see the only life boat slip over the side. Now I was really 20 in trouble. It would be only a matter of time before the small boat would surrender to the angry waves. Sud- denly, as if I had been overheard, the boat began to sway. My feet went out from under me and I began to fall. Then, all at once, my head struck something hard, and everything went black. The next thing I remembered was cold water splashing over me. The boat was entirely gone. There was only drift wood to indicate what it once had been. My body was numb with cold. It became harder and harder to keep my head above water. I began to Won- der how long it would be before my senses became so dull that I could not tell which was air and which was water, and what to breathe for life. MARIE DAVIS HFREEDOM QF Speech shall not die. This chant rang through the streets which were filled with people. The quiet night echoed with the blaring voices of those who had incited in the community a fearful aspect of just what was happening. And there I was, one of the many, watching and jeering along with the crowd but not really knowing why I was doing it. All I knew was that these people had no right to be here. Who would ever expect Communists to hold ot rally here, just outside of New York, in a building next door to a church? No one would have suspected it. That, apparently, is why they did it. The whole incident was due to an oversight on the part of the building manager and the clever wording put into the Contract by the party It was too late to blame anyone for what had happened. All that mattered was how to move these people out. Arrangements had been made to keep the rally from being held in the hall, but it was impossible to stop them
