But she decided it would be very bad psychology to let her friend know she saw through her effort to indlf- 'ferant. "You could have bowled me she laughed gaily, "when I saw Myra and Terry wall; In.

If-Terry was looking for a girl to borrow money from, he couldn't have done much -better.

And he'll make a handsome gigolo." Choliy winced, but Romany added brutally: "Thank heaven he has found someone else! That's the reason he hasn't been around pestering you, I guess." "Terry looks fine, don't you think?" Choliy sat down on the floor to take off her stockings. surprised." Romany laughed lightly. "You didn't expect Terry to sit around and weep over you, did you? You forget men aren't'like women, It doesn't take them long to turn around and see another pretty face." "I guess you're right," Choliy said miserably. "I'm glad he was sober." "The evening was yet flipped Romany. "Maybe," sighed Choliy, "Miss Noyes will help Terry find a radio Job.

If he'd get a break, maybe he'd change." "If he gets a break," Romany sniffed, he'll have Just ihat much more money to throw away in night clubs. There's one leopard that will never change his spots. If he didn't change 'em for you, he certainly won't for Myra Noyes. Well, let's get some sleep. Tomorrow I'm a working girl." When Romany snapped off the light, Choliy buried her head in her pillow, crying softly.

Romany knew, and ached to comfort her. But she felt Choliy must get Terry O'Rourke out of her system in her own way. Perhaps If Choliy believed Romany thought she was falling back on her pride, and not earing what Terry, did, or with Whom he was seen, it might help Both (he rehearsal and the broadcast of "Twilight of Ixiye. went rmopthly on Monday after-1 icon. Choliy tuned in from the and marveled at Romany's Celeste.

Her voice was IQW and musical, as different from the average run of cut and dried dramatic scrool voices as day from night, Any one hearing Romany Halle once would never forget her, Sentimental little Charlotte wiped tears of happiness from her eyes She was just as -happy as though it were all happening to herself. Trotter was relieved thflt apparently Myra had made up her mind to eat dirt as gracefully as possible. She Ignored Romany as though she mud tinker her feet, however, which was just aa well. Romany took the same tac- tlca with her. -It was business, and that was Other members of the cast were smart enough to pretend to Ignore the Noyes-Halle feud.

But they were secretly enjoying It. Jane Martel's smile and gaiety helped to lighten.the situation in the studio. A place could never be like a morgue for long with Jane around. From the'broadcast, Myra went Into the press department. There were a' few things she meant to find out.

She sought Joe Telling. "Come downstairs and I'll buy you a highball, 1 she offered smiling, "It's time for you to go anyway, isn't It?" "Yeah!" He got up. "And a little drink won't do us any harm." Joe was pretty sure he Knew why Myra was so nice to him. But it didn't worry him much. Myra waited until they were having their second highball before she came to the point.

"Joey!" She looked up then. "Tell me something. Will you?" "Maybe," he grinned. "Shoot." "How come the press department let Romany Haile run for the television title?" "Any one can join up," shrugged Joe. "What's press got to do with it?" "Well, you certainly must be spending a lot of money on her.

That life-size picture in color in the lobby certainly cost a pretty penny. And she Isn't an Interstate Artist. I don't get it." "You can do a lot of things when you've got the dough." "I get it." Myra pursed her red lips thoughtfully, "She Is footing the bills." Joe 'shrugged, grinning again, "I ain't a savin'." Myra leaned toward him. "Well, I've got something to tell you, Joe." Her eyes narrowed Romany Haile hasn't got a dime! AH this heiress business Is a bare faced lie. Now what do you think of that?" "Go on!" Joe motioned for another highball.

that rich Harlowe woman's niece, Isn't she? "She's one of a large flock of nfeces and nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins." Myra smiJed' slyly "It so happens I've got the straight goods. My new boy friend was born 1 and brpught -up in the same town," Telling pricked up his ears. "Spl Yeah, go on." "That girl's' father and mother live in a Tittle dump down in Leeville, Indiana, and they hardly know where their next meal is coming from. The clothes she's showing off with belong to her aunt who is Europe. When she comes back and finds she's been wearing them, ihe'U probably murder her.

"You're crazy!" scoffed the skep- Joe. "Oh, am Myra laughed unpleasantly. "Terry went to school with Romany Haile. She waited tables, took care of children and did everything to get through. Besides, she borrowed money from her aunt." 'Well," Joe grinned wisely, "so that's the setup! Well, explains something that has been puzzling me." "For Myra leaned toward him.

When Joe had a few his tongue had no brakes pn-it. He looked around mid In a whisper: "You won't any Because If you do I might lose my job." "Of course not," Myra scoffed. "What sort of a heel do you think I am?" "Do you really want to know where the money came from to pay for Hailo's pictures?" "Sure, tell me," urged Myra. "I'm dying to know." Joe said thickly: "From your ex-fiance." Myra. gasped, "God's truth," Joe nodded.

"He came in and wrote a check for two hundred bucks and said there was more where that came from. He got sore as hell when I let him see what I was thinking." Myra bit her lip, a consuming anger sweeping over "Of course it's clear now. Oh, i might have known, but I didn't think! He gave you that money.be- cause he wanted to show me up. He- wants Romany Haile to', win the title of Miss Television." Joe slapped the table with his fist. 'By gad, that's a hot one! And the dame hasn't got a dime! Boy, is smart! Well, she's certainly got the looks to go around trimming guys to get somewhere.

No skim off my nose! Brent bad the dough to pay for the pictures," tramp!" Myra said between clenched teeth. "Hey!" Joe suddenly realized he'd been talking too much, "You got a grudge against the ga), pon't you go doing anything that's going to get me into trouble now." "Don't be silly!" Myra drained the last of her third highball. Joe had consumed five. "Well, I've got to be going. Joe." She paid the check and rushed out, leaving Telling blinking after her, befuddled.

Giggling to himself, he ordered another drink Before the evening was over he'd told three other people, in strictest con-' fldence, that Romany Haile was a farmer's daughter and not an heiress And that Brent Nelson was putting up the money to piftke her a radio star- Meanwhile Brent, spending one of his rare evenings at home Wading, was interrupted by a knoo.h on the door of his hotel room. in," he cabled from the living room.

"Go right ahead. Thow me out! I'd love It!" "I'm sura you would." Brent sat back on the divan and lit a cigaret, fighting for control of his temper. "Now suppose you tell me what brought you here." Myra sat back in her chair, 'her hands clenched on the arms.

I've just found out something very interesting," she smiled then. "And I think you find out what It la we'll be abje to talfc, a little business." "Business? What kind of ness?

He had seen Myra and Joe in the cocktail lounge less than an hour before.

Brent got up to walk the floor. Myra could see that he was deep, ly worried, "And that isn't half the information I have." She sat back, pleased with herself. "Thew are a few things I think you should know about your lady love, too."
