Presently I said, as I entered the kitchen, If you'd be willing to wait, I'll go and fix some tea. My first plan was to arm myself' with the carving knife, but then I noticed some rat poison on the shelf. Wxhen the water was hot, I filled .the cups and carefully stirred a generous portion of the deadly powder into his tea. It calmed my nerves somewhat to think that this would soon put an end to the death pattern of the horrible creature. Ah, this is the best cup of tea I've ever had, the young man praised, Yes, and also your last, my dear friend, I thought to nwself. I said, Udo you have a family awaiting you back in Chicago? 'Oh yes,--wife and three kids. I suppose Mrs. Carle has some little ones of her own by now? One little girl, How nice, How old is she? Let's see--she'll be five months next Monday. Is Susan as pretty as her mother? . I gasped, But I haven't mentioned her name! He burst out laughing. Oh darn! I slipped! I did-1'1'Tf mean to tell YOU Q this, but you see I'm Bob Carle.

O nJane needed this part,n he started to explain. nShe is not strong but she should by no means fall by the wayside because of that fact. Here she will be able to dance in the corps de ballet and also perform solos. You, my dear, were meant for greater heights. Did you see your name on the program? I searched for my name, Marlo Helvite, but could not find it. Then he pointed at the name Marlo Markova. nBut Jane ---- looks like her,n I stammered. nAh lookl But she does not have a fire burning in her soul that commands creation. This you possessln I put my head down and cried. There was no other name I would treasure more. It was a symbol, a goal of the future. Just then a stage hand came to the top of the stairs and tried to get by. Diaghlev would not move. As the man sputtered, Diaghlev shouted, nSomeday you will be happy to say that you could not get down the stairs because Marlo Markova was sitting on them. Someday you will be proud to say itlu Joan MacFarlane 'SS FATAL JOKE When Bob was shipped to Korea, Judy Carle was left alone to care for her family. She now lavished all her attention and love on five-months-old Susan whom Bob had never even seen. As I sat in their living room baby-sitting, I suddenly felt aware of my responsibility. The baby upstairs, sleeping so peacfully, was Mrs. Carle's sole means of moral support. Only through the child was she able to keep alive ner hope and faith, Becoming drowsy, I picked up the evening paper and began the funnies when a particular headline jumped out at me. Q COLLEGE BOY KILLS BABY-- A good-looking, freckle-faced young man, pretending to be a close relative, entered a house in a Boston Suburb last night. The murderer began a lively conversation with the baby-sitter. They were chatting over a cup of tea when suddenly the visitor grabbed the girl and gagged and bound her. The young man ran upstairs, killed the baby, and left the house. Police have sent out several Search parties in Search of this maniac. Be on B the watch for he is still at large. My stomach began to churn. I just couldn't read further, It was absurd x 6 to be frightened, but just supposing-- Cijiip There was a sharp rap on the door. -an I broke into a cold sweat. The objects in the room became blurred as I forced myself to the door. I opened it. The young man, perhaps a bit older than I had pictured, fitted the description perfectly. nGood evening Miss. Is Mrs. Carle home?N He seemed very disappointed when I told him that she wasn't in. Wwell, I'm an old school friend of Mrs. Carle's. Could I come in and talk with you? I'll be going back to Chicago tomorrow, and I'd just like to hear how Judyvs getting alo ng 0 1 L, Cv Not wishing to alarm him, I invited him into the living room, where we sat down and began to talk. 15 YJ
