X pg N ,J ' N u 1 MO CX ' Z ' Q ,' Phillip Coates' head hurt. He fought off the pain and looked around. He was in a small room with one window. His hand went to 32 his head. A bandage! But how did it get there? The last thing he remembered was blacking out in his motorboat with the stolen bank money. Coates groaned. His head really hurt. At his groan, a short, stout woman entered. nwhere am I?n moaned Coates. nYou're in my home,N said the woman. UI found you in your boat after it crashed nearby. I brought you here and fixed you up.U HDid you---U asked Coates, but she cut him off. nYes, I found the money----and I'm keeping it. You can't go to the police,n she laughed. Coates had to get away. But how? He couldn't swim, even if he could get back to the bay. And with his gunshot wound, he couldn't runvery far. And he saw the gleam of the automatic in her hand. Then he knew: The window! But the gun..... nLook!n he yelled to the woman. As she turned, Coates threw a heavy lamp. It hit her in the shoulder and made her drop the gun. Coates was on her in a moment, snatching up a heavy scarf which he twisted around her neck. It was over in seconds. Coates grabbed the satchel con- taining the money and made for the window. The woman had said before that it was a first floor room- HG confidently jumped out. Suddenly he screamed...... There was a crash as his body hit the rocks that surrounded the lighthouse.

SURPRISE Lorraine looked up. She hadbeen sipping an ice-cream soda at the hangout and Jimmy Newton had walk- ed in and sat down at the counter. Lorraine occupied a booth with Hal, Sammy, and Sue and they had been talking about Jimmy. Sammy said, nJimmy refused to play baseball with Hal and me.W Sue said, HJimmy won't even buy a ticket to the Super-Summer Dance! All Lorraine's friends had some- thing resentful to say about Jimmy -- all, but Lorraine. Jimmy to her was just another lonely boy. The gang went home in Sammy's car. All the way Sue kept taking Jimmy over the coals. She said, nThat Jimmy is impoSsib1e.U As they pulled into Sammy's driveway, Hal began to sneeze: Lorraine didn't think much of it, until the next day when Sue came to her house. Sue told Lorraine that Hal was sick and couldn't go to the dance. Lorraine was in a fix: no one to take her to the dance-- no one but Jimmy, nJimmy won't buy a ticket from you if he won't buy one from me,H said Sue. UI'1l bet you a dollar he willf' said Lorraine. Sue agreed to take the bet. That afternoon Lorraine went to the railroad track where Jimmy had the 3:00 to 6:00 shift in his job of keeping young children and animals off the track. when Lor- raine saw Jimmy, she said, NHi, I heard you don't have a ticket to the dance, I'm here to sell you one.H 1 0 , 'I' J 26 . gfv V 5 - .R HGet outa here,U shouted Jimmy annoyed. Uwho wants a ticket to that dumb dance?H UIt is not a dumb dance,N said Lorraine, nAnd most of the money goes to the building of the new town hospital.n Lorraine continued talking about how wonderful the dance would be. Jimmy got angry and pushed her away, but he forgot his own strength and pushed her so hard that she fell into the grass next to the track. There she lay uncon- scious and to frightened Jim y she looked dead! Jimmy could picture himself in the electric chair at Sing Sing or spending his life in prison, He was also inwardly annoyed at him- self for being so fresh to Lorraine and her friends. His thoughts came to a quick halt when Lorraine came to and said, NI guess I had better leave.N HY- You - m- mean y- you're not dead?n queried Jimmy. WBy any chance did you want to kill me?H asked Lorraine. nOh, noin replied Jimmy. UI do want to buy a ticket to the dance. As a matter of fact I want two tickets if you'll be my date.H UI surely will be,N exclaimed Lorraine. The next night Jimmy and Lorraine went to the dance. Besides Lorraine's winning her wager,Jimmy had a good time. Eleanor Gppenheimer 33 J
