Maurine. still smart and appealing in the little veiled ha! which she bad donned to wear to the stadium, rose, at the sound of Joel's voice, out of a deep chair near the lobby's rustic Scldstone fireplace. But the eager, wistful smile wavered and fadeo as she saw Cam beside him. "Cam!" It was not precisely what one might describe at a glad little cry. "I never expected to see you." "I'm sure you didn't." said Cam sternly.

"If Beefy hadn't all but kidnapped me off a public street corner, I'd still where you wanted me to be. Back in Curters- ville, believing tha' Joel had made to me to get Dean's Award out of Dad.

"And the mysterious way in which Joel received Ins misinformation about Gary Marlowe, that put me in such a bad light? Couldnt it ere that you were responsible for that, too? Joel, how did you hear?" HiE eyes were on hers, troubled but steady. "Anonymous note. It was waiting (here under my door at Mrs. Funk's, and I found it right after I'd left Beefy on my way to you." "A note?"
