"REDHEADS ARE LUCKY" By Vera Brown

SYNOPSIS Mike Shannon, pretty red-headed magaxine counter girl at the Hotel Eureka, is trying to reform one of its spectacular gussts-Handsoms I.arry Regan, sensational young southpaw (left hand) pitcher, whose misconduct has been worrying hie team's management. Mike is the chief support of her family. She is not so pleased when “Wish" Malone, ths club's No. 1 scout, suggested that she might marry the errstic Handsome. But when ths big boy falls again for liquor, she rushes to hie room to "bring him to." Assistant Coach Harper arrives, a most embarrassing aceno ensuing. CHAPTER VI "Get out to ths park!" Harper barked after a moment's awful silence. “I was just leaving," Handsome managed. “So 1 sea." Harper's voice was biting. "And as for you, young woman. It's your kind that makes trouble for us coaches. You can go; 111 take ears of Handsome." Larry started for Harper, his flats up. The coach backed up. "Don't hit him, Larry!" Mike cried, stepping between them. Harper stared at Mike a moment "Don’t hit him, I tall you." She eaught Larry's arm. The two men stood glaring at each other for a moment. Then Harper turned on hia heel, went out and slammed the door behind him. Handsome stood there, wiping his forehead. “I should have broken every bone in his body." “And been suspended?" "I believe you're right!" Handsome suddenly swept Mike into his arms. Ho kissed the top of her shining hair, gave her a little shake, then let her go. "You’re a sweet thing. Mike. 11l be good." Mike eould not look at him. Rhe was afraid he would see her eyes. "Go. now. I'm taking the back elevator down. And get some coffee on your way out" Then she fled. She was back at the magazine saunter ,when Handsome came through the lobby. He signaled to her. and he emiled his old smile. He wax all right But aha trembled for the aftermath of the whole affair when Handsome got to the stadium She would have been much more perturbed eould she have seen Handsome's entrance into the locker room half an hour later. He was so angry that going up on the subway hie could not stop shaking, but by the time he got to the park bo had calmed down. As he walked in. most of the gang were tn uniform. "How are you. larry?" Tom Marvin called. Handsome knew that unless Marvin was going to be nasty ho would not have even spoken to kirn. “V/> u aeem to be doin' all right with redheads." said Dusty Lee, the team's No. 1 pitcher. Handsome turned on him. "What do you mean?" "What do you think I mean? You're due for a swell d res rag down when Aeo hears about this." Handsome kept on lacing hia shoes and he retorted: "1 suppose that Tattling Tony Harper's been down here shooting off his mouth." As Handsome spoks there was a sudden silence in the locksr room so that h e voice boomed out with startling loudness. You could feel the tension. Handsome raised hia bead. Harper was standing in the door. Hs must have heard. Before Harper eould speak Handsome repeated: "I said that Tattling Tony Harper!" Harper advanced on him. Handsome jumped up, leaped toward the coach. If it had been anybody else but Handsome the boys would have Interfered, stopped what followed Handsome earns over and

smacked Harper sharply, first on one side of his face, then on the other. "You're not worth beating up, you little shrimp I" Everybody in the room stood as though hypnotised. They eould not believe what they were seeing. Ace Barnes appeared suddenly out of hie dressing room. "He hit met" Harper yoßed. Ace, looking at the big pitcher, did not raise hia voice. "Get dressed end report to the front office, R<gan" Then ho went back Into bla room again. Nobody said a word. Harper dia-

appeared after Barnes. Hsndsome berried into his clothes, desperate to get out of that hostile atmosphare. Dusty lee began to sing. But Handsome did not even turn his head. Ho walked out of the locker room, through ths tunnel and dugout into the bright spring sunshine. It was a gorgeous day. Handsome fstt his ey*« suddenly sting The diamond was so green and bright before him, with the grand stands in deep shadow. Hs loved it so And he was going to lose it Ho stumbled up the clubhouse steps rubbing his eyes. So this was the end. He waited numb outside the Old Maa's office. Ho could hear Mr. Crisp talking on the telephone to somebody. After a long time Crisp's secretary came out I "Mr. Crisp will see you now," said Mies Worden. And Handsome was feeing the club’s owner. The Old Man. hie back to the windows. eat at a big mahogany desk. Handsome stood there for a moment and Crisp, eyeing him. thought how impossible it was that any young man should look as handsome as Urqr Regan did In a 24-houf-old "Sit down. Regan." Handsome eat gingerly, on the edge of a chair. ,"*9, you better begin, Regan." Handsome swallowed: “I smacked Harper." "Why?" "He's been spying on me " “That's strange * The Old Man’s voles waa barbed. "Why should ho •py on you?" Handsome did not answer.

“Look here, Regan Get v..le straight. You represent a lot of my money. You're what 1 hoped was going to boa valuable property. Priceless, 1 might say. I've sunk a lot of dough in you in the last three years. I'm not going to lose it without a struggle." There was a dead silence. Handsome fumbled for words Then he began hia story. The Old Man was easy to talk to, but he knew all the Answwrt. “All right, Regan. I understand But what about this drinking? And th* red hod?’* “She isn't just a redhead, Mr.

Crisp. She’s rr.y girl She was just in n>y room to see whv I hadn't started for the path. I’m going to marry her. She’s gweO."
