You're making a big fuss over something I was in no way to blame for I can't understand it Mrs Gifford" Then Lora walked over to her employer and said quietly: "Perhaps you'd like me to quit" "Oh no Not that" "Well I will if you continue to be so unreasonable" Mrs Gifford sat down CAROL UPSET HER "I'm upset" she said "I've been so nervous since I learned Carol is coming nome" "I should think you'd be very happy about it" Lora told her "Why should that upset you?" Mrs Gifford looked up quickly "Oh yes" she said "I forgot Mr Hall the apartment manager told me Bill Trumbo the maintenance man complained about you He says you have been tclephoning him constantly and interfering with his work" seems a very dependable boy" "All right" Lora said angrily "We'll see" She picked up the kitchen telephone "What are you doing?" Mrs Gifford asked "I'll show you" The girl at the office answered the call "May have I ever called Bill Trumbo since I've been here?" Lora asked holding the receiver so Mrs Gifford could hear the answer PROOF "I'll check" the girl repliel "We log all maintenance calls I have the record right here" There was a pause "No There have been no calls to maintenance from 603 for a month" was the reply Lora said thanks and banged down the receiver "How stupid can Mr Hall be?" she demanded 'lie has his own house records showing Bill Trumbo lied yft he would complain to you without looking at them (CONTINUED TOMORROW) DOWN 1 Idolizes 2 Fasten again 3 Plural ending 4 Catnip 5 Street urchin speak the language That's one course I couldn't get at night school" Lora explained ASKS AGAIN -I'd sure like to have you come back I miss you a lot Lora" "When I return from the trip I might consider it Not now" "That's final?" "Absolutely" Gordon started the engine turned the car about and they drove directly to the city At the apartments Lora invited him in "I'll make some coffee if you don't mind visiting in the kitchen" she said He hestiated then accepted They went in through the lobby and up to the sixth floor where unlocked the service entrance The Giffords hadn't returned Lora made coffee and they visited for some time Gordon talking mostly about the office and the big job which had been thrust on him When they heard the Giffords enter the front of the apartment Gordon got up to go "Don't hurry It's all right" Lora assured him But when Mrs Gifford came into the kitchen Lora was sorry she had insisted that he stay Mrs Gil-ford was displeased and showed it She scarcely acknowledged Lora's introduction of her friend then left hurriedly 7:46 PM 7:20 PM 7:05 PM 1:10 AM An 1:15 AM Ly AM Kannapolis 1:42 AM Concord 2:10 AM Ar Charlotte Lv AM Lv Charlotte Ar All times shown are Eastern Standard a-e-j-m-n-y: conditional stops le stop on flag SOUTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY CHAPTER NINE Lake Blvd roared with heavy Saturday night traffic as Gordon drove toward the lake front Lora lay back on the comfortable cushkais and let the wind blow through her hair It was nice to know that Gordon Lad missed her and in spite of his pride had called her for a date She wondered why Bart wanted to see her and whether his story about having something to tell her was just an excuse for a date She'd find out tomorrow They emerged at the top of the grade with a breath-taking view spread below them Gordon pulled over to a parking space along the highway Millions of lights sparkled below Off to the west were the distant lights of Lake Village To the east were the glowing street lamps and the neon lights of Woodcrest Scores of pleasure craft bobbed about on Crescent Bay below them their riding lights casting eerie reflections on the waves BUSINESS TALK Gordon scarcely noticed the view He turned to Lera and began talking business "Things have gone to pot at the office" he told her "The boss has put it up to me to get it straightened out I'll have to fire Schultz She's lost her punch Can't handle the girls I wish you'd come back Lora We miss you" "Not a chance" Lora said promptly "You're still going to Greece?"
