SYNUFSis Pretty, young Patricia Warren unwillingly accepts the attention* of Bill McGee, a racketeer, fearing his wrath should she refuse. One night. Bill is shot by a rival gangster while with Patricia. Patricia runs home in terror. Her stepmother, fearing a scandal, puts her out. Patricia is forced to make her living by playing professional bridge, impressed by the girl'* beauty and skill. Julian Haverholt, the bridge expert, makes her his partner. She moves to his palatial home where he introduces her as his niece. Pat is indignant until Haverholt explains he was thinking of her reputation. Patricia is secretly in love with Clark Tracy, the polo player, but Clark is engaged to Marthe March, society girl. Pat first met Clark and his fiancee when she filled in at bridge (for fifty cents an hour) at wealthy Mrs. Syeott’s home. Pat was living with her stepmother at the time. Meeting Pat again at Haverholt’s, Clark does not recognize her. He breaks an appointment to teach Pat to drive her new car and goes on a trip with his fiancee's family. Noting her disappointment, Haverholt questions Pat. but she denies that she loves Clark. Pat concentrates on bridge to forget. Then comes the bridge tournament sponsored by Reuben Blair. Haverholt's bitter enemy. Clark is present. He is distressed by Patricia's coolness towards him. The contest is on. Haverholt and Pat play with machine-like precision and perfection, and win. Next morning, they are deluged with congratulatory telegrams and business offers. Haverholt purposely holds out a wire from Clark to see if Pat will ask for it- She does. He advises her to put Clark out of her thoughts, reminding her of what Clark would think if he knew she was not Haverholt’s niece. They accept Clark’s invitation to the races to see his horse, “Honey Boy,” run. Patricia is panic stricken lest Marthe March will remember theig, previous meeting at Mrs. Syeott’s and expose her. CHAPTER TWENTY NINE The younger girl learned to brace herself for those glances. She should never have come here. She knew that now. Too late she learned the wretchedness of flying under false colors. She had not learned it, she admitted ashamedly to herself, until the possibility of discovery seemed imminent. Like the others she lifted field glasses and fixed her eyes upon the track. She did not see the dancing, cleanlimbed horses, the bright colors of the jockeys, the rolling green of the turf. She seemed instead to see herself, a shabby iittle nobody, Patricia Warren, coming into Eileen Syeott’s on a cold winter night to play bridge for fifty cents an hour because she could make her living in no other way. Would Marthe March remember that night? What would Marthe do or say if she did remember? What would the others say if they discovered that Julian Haverholt'S niece was not his niece ? “Are your glasses focused properly?” asked Clark. “Not quite.” ' “Here, let me fix them?” His hand touched her hand, lingered. He said in a low voice, “You are very beautiful this afternoon." Exquisite words. They fell like healing balm on Patricia’s spirit. Maybe the situation was not so terrible after all. Perhaps soon she might explain everything to Clark. Surely be would understand and see her side of it. She had been | foolish, reckless, imprudent. But ’ she had done nothing wrong He i would understand that she had done nothing wrong. “Your hair,” said Clark dreamily, “you must love your hair.” “Are you trying to make time on me?” inquired Philip Gove, halftightly, half jealously, as he edged his chair around.

1 “On you," scoffed Clark. “What ■ do you mean ‘on you’? Xou have ’ no interest in the young woman." ■ “What are you two quarrelling ! about, Phil?” demanded Marthe, ’ diverting her attention from Julian I for the moment. : “Patricia,” replied Clark ' promptly. : “So you are a heartbreaker, are you, Patricia Haverholt?” asked 1 Marthe, cocking her head on one k side, openly measuring the other. • “I might have guessed it of Julian’s niece." “A base canard,” rumbled Julian. “I've never found a woman willing to be faithful to me.” ’ “Liar,” said Marthe softly. ! Her eyes and Julian’s met. Pa- : tricia happened to glimpse Clark’s face just then. It was very dark. r The afternoon was full of under--1 currents, strange and disturbing. ' Patricia had an illusion that they ’ were, all of them, at cross pur- ! poses. Her own fear was com- ! prehensible. The rest was not. ! Marthe and Clark seemed oddly ’ aloof in their treatment of each f other, too polite, too studiedly careless and indifferent. Had they quar- : relied before their appearance at ■ the track? Was Marthe striving ’ with Julian's help to make Clark ’ jealous? Was Clark carrying on a r counter campaign? It wasn’t fun ’ any more. Nothing was fun. Patri- ! cia smiled fixedly, listening to 1 Clark’s tales of Honey Boy’s prow- ■ ess, nodding occasionally. ’ “Am I boring you with this?" he 1 asked anxiously. 1 “Not a bit,” she said brightly, unconvincingly. “I love horse rac- ' ing.” “Why not watch it then?” suggested Phil, bitterly. Clark and Patricia looked hastily ■ and guiltily toward the track. 1 The first race was under way. Clark had fifty dollars on it. He lost it. ■ They began teasing him for follow- ■ ing subterranean tips. He iaughed. ■ Obviously, to him, the loss was > completely unimportant. “We’ll make it up on Honey 1 Boy,” predicted Haverholt, who had > also lost. ■ “1 hope so,” said Clark shortly, i Startled, by Clark’s tone, Patricia I suspected that the two men were at outs, for a fleeting instant she had the curious feeling that Clark hated Julian. An insane idea, of course. She dismissed it immediately. Clark, she thought, was still offended by Julian’s rudeness on the night of the tournament. No won-

der. What a thoroughly uncomfortable, unsatisfactory afternoon! To think that she had chosen to cotno here deliberately. The second race was run. Thea came the third, the Blanchard Handicap, the feature of the afternoon. Despite herself Patricia felt a stir of interest This was Clark’s race. Honey Boy was not a general favorite but the horse was confidently expected to win by Tracy’s friends. People called encouragement from adjoining boxes and sent over notes scrawled on the edges of programs. Clark himself was flushed and excited, all horseman now. “Which one is Honey Boy?” demanded Patricia. “Our colors are purple,” said Clark absently, watching the huddle at the starting post intently and anxiously through his glasses. “Will you excuse me, please?” He hurried away to lose himself in the crowd at the fence. The gun went off. A false start. One jockey seesawed up and down violently attempting to get his horse into line again. Now they were off! The girl was swept by the excitement around her. She surged to her feet with the others, clutched at the nearest arm, Phil’s arm. shouting wildly for Honey Boy. The track was a blur of color. “Honey Boy, Honey Boy, Honey Boy.” They were all chanting it. Patricia picked out the purple silks as the horses thundered past, swift, incredibly beautiful in action. Honey Boy was leading. Three times the horses circled the track. Honey Boy was leading. He was an easy winner. The crowd went insane with joy. “I guess,” said Phil, weak from reaction, “I guess the drinks are on Clark tonight, after winning that purse. I’d rather own Honey Boy than the mint.” The amount of the purse made Patritia gasp. Thrilled and proud to incoherence, Clark rejoined them, praising his jockey, praising h i s tables, praising his splendid, Splendid horse. Honey Boy would be another Man of War! That horse had a fighting heart! It wa s evident that the money end of it had for him no significance. His pride was the pride of the discoverer. From the first he had known that Honey Boy had the stuff. He had known it from the moment that he saw I him as a colt. (To Re Continued) C 1932. by King Features Syndicate, Inc.
