‘RCDHeADSARE LUCKy" L—— By Vera Brown_____

CHAPTER XXII Mike was back at her old hotel job. At th* familiar cigar counter, •he got th* brunt of the whole fight business and Handsome'* busted hand. She had to keep on smiling, being noncommital, saying the usual conventional thing* all day long. Reside her worry over Handanme. Mik* had her own trouble* Sb* had come home expecting to find Jimmie improved. But ho waa not. He seemed weaker. Mik* had to keep a smil* for Handsome, but she had a feeling of impending doom. ... Handsome'a father and mother had planned to com* on for th* Series. But Mr*. R< gan was not feeling well and. becaus* Handsome was not going to play, they decided against th* trip. That was another disappointment for Mike. But Handsome was *o in the depths, he •aid he was glad they had decided to stay away. Dr. Christian, the house physician at the Eureka, used to talk to Mik* a lot dur.ng those day*. It was his opinion that everybody waa wrong about Handsome * hand. "Sometimes these expert* ean't see the woods for th* trees,” he said eno night aa Mike waited for Hand•ome to meet her when she was through work. "I’d like to talk to him about it if he wouldn't mind." “I'm sure, he wouldn't,” Mike eaid quickly. "Com* on up to my euite. Handtome can meet you there," Dr. Christian suggested. It was half an hour before Handsome telephoned from the lobby. In that half hour, Mik* had told th* doctor something of her difficulties. "I'm juat to a point where I had to talk to somebody,” she said. Handsome protested vehemently about coming up to meet the doctor. I’, would mean more conversation. Besides, he wanted to talk to Mik* alone.. The crowd in th* lobby rushed him *o that he was glad to eacape into the elevator, for he knew • f*ng would be waiting at his room Dr. Christian met hi*j> at th* door: "Glad you came up. It’* quiet her* and Mike ia tired. She gets pushed around down there in that lobby. Everybody insieta on talking about you.” Handsome looked at Mike: ”1 suppose that * so. You do look tired.” Mike sat turning her engagement ring on her finger. "I'm all right, Larry, what about you?” "Th* usual.” Handsome walked over and stood, his hands in his pockets looking into th* street far below. ”1 think they're making too big a fu*s about your hand, Larry,* Dr. Christian remarked. Handsome cam* over and eat down beside Mike. Hi* face was tense and drawn. “I'm jumpy. Doe They've got me erazy. I wouldn't mind missing this Sene* if I was sure I'd pitch again some day." ”If I were you. I wouldn't keep that bandage on at night. Exercise your hand a little. Try It and don't toll them. Just **• how it feel* in th* morning after you've had a good night'e rest.” When they were walking to the subway. Handsome said suddenly. "Hl rid* over to Brooklyn with you." "It'e too late. I won't let you ” "I want to talk to you/ They ! w»rc etotuling In Time* Square. Handsome bundled her into a cab, remarking, "Wet!, this semi* to b« th* only place »* can get any privacy. It won't always be like that" Handsome *«w>n opened up whst wa* on hi* mind by announcing: "Mike, th* boys had a meeting today. Marvin called it. He's th* •Prex'. They decided th* wav th* Series money it to be cut up. “Yes." “Well, the boys voted m* only a half share: several wanted to cut me out altogether.” Mik* eould not trust herself to answer for a moment. "How could they?” the managed. "Marvin's pretty sera at me. I don't blain* him. Os enurae, th*y won't win, and they figure there isn't to much to di'idt and, ts 1 hadn't been such a fool, we d bate

If it wervn t for you, they wouldn't be where they are!” Mik* bunt out. “I don't know about that myself." “It is true I They wouldn't dare cut you that way I" “But they have." He patted her bead. “And you're going to say we can't be married this fall." Mike did not answer for a moment. “I don't like to worry you, Larry, but . . , Jimmie isn't any better.” "I saw that when w* came baek.” "You noticed it. too?” The taxi bounced along. "Larry, I’ve been meaning to say thia for day*. I want you to feel free.” He put hi* arm around her, kissed the tip of her nose, knocked her hat askew: “I do. but you have me hooked. Skipper. T couldn't get away if I wanted to! I wouldn’t dare trust those lueky pennies, not lee* you backed them up!" a a a Handsome was frantic the week before the World Series opened be. tween the Yanks and the Giant* His hand wa* much improved. He'd worked out some Even Ac* Barnes aaid it was better: "Maybe I can use you a* a relief pitcher, Larry. I don't dare start you." "Relief!" Handsome fairly hated that arordlt “You shouldn't do mor* than two or three Inning* at th* most, not with that hand the way it U.” Ac* was firm about that. Mik*’a counter was three deep two days before th* Series opened. E I*o body was trying to get her to use her influence with Handsome, or with Aee, to get tickets. "I haven’t even a eeat myself!” She hadn't been teeing much of Handsome for he had been spending most of hie waking hour* under Dr. Christian'* *un lamp. All telephone call* to hie room had been shut off. Handsome had not even suggested that Mike go to the gam** Both had grimly avoided an mention of that The whole subject was too gainful. She did not see Handsome th* night before the opening game So Mike went home to spend a worried evening with Jimmie. She got down early next morning for ah* did not want to miss Hand*,-me before he left for the stadium W han ho came to sey good morning as usual, he tossed a ticket acroa* the counter: “Wish gave me that last night Said he thought you ought to be in at th* killin'." Hand-sms'* eyes • ere somber. Mik* looked up at him searchmgly . "Docs it mean anything?" "Not unless Dusty drop* dead and some of the relief pitcher* run away from the park!" Handsome wa* in a rebellious mood The big pitcher left without further word*. He did not tell Mike to wait for him after the game as u»ua! Downey gave hl* permission to Mik* with surprising eas* It did not occur to Mik* to wonder about that. But *h* went, alon* Th* crowd* on the subway were terrific Everywhere In th* train you’d hear th* fan* putting the blast an Handsome Regan Mik* wiueeted Into a corner, ducked her head to bid* h*r hot cheek*.
