No one will ever know how much the prayers of the pupils of the Decatur Catholic high school helped in the recovery of Dick Heller, Sr., editor of this newspaper, but we are — certain the prayers of boys and girls are best understood by God, ■ o- ■<> - A nominating committee for new directors of the Decatur Chamber of Commerce for 1957 has been named.

st Stevenson? It will provide a lot of interesting arguments for the next four years. ■ I o- -o By filling out his full term as governor extending to January 14, newly elected Democratic Senator Frank J. Lausche, of Ohio, will not be present when the Senate is organized earlier in January. This removes his possibility of throwing the Senate into a 48 to 48 tie as be had indicated he probably would vote with the Republicans to organize the Senate. How be will vote on legislation is another matter. He frequently has supported Republican measures in his home state. ■ "O' ' o Officially, Sunday is Veterans Day in Decatur and will be so observed in many of the churches. The American Legion has announced that it will conduct its memorial services at the Legion home today. Veterans Day was originally established in 1948 to honor all of the veterans of all wars. It replaces Armistice day, which honored only veterans of World War I. The two-fold specific objectives of Veterans day are “to keep alive public interest in those who have worn the uniforms of their country in time of war and armed conflict and to encourage, through so honoring those who have served, the maintenance of honorable peace by strict and universal adherence to truth, loyalty and ready preparedness to meet aggression.” The executive committee of the Veterans Day National committee is composed of the national commanders of the American Legion, AMVETS, Disabled American Veterans and the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S.

It looked as t though I might be here for some j time. It was all right for them. 7 You can live on love. But me, I t was without food or water. “Darling,” I heard Leone gasp, 1 It’s so horrible, happening now, 1 now when everything was going I to be so perfect for us.” i “I know, my dear,** Bell cooed. *1 know.” < “Can't we go through with it 1 anyhow, Just the way we planned, i no matter what happens? No one i need find out.” “But they would find out, my angel. The papers would get hold of it, those infernal columnists.” “What if they did? I wouldn’t care.” “But how would it look, Leone, think of appearances. This ghastly business about Anita, my school involved. And you and I running off to be married in the middle of it alt It would seem so very callous.” “Yes, of course you’re right, Oliver. As usual. But can’t you come home with me? Now, I mean. My lovely apartment’s there, waiting for us.” “Please,” Bell pleaded, “please, Leone. We mustn’t risk any gossip.” His voice turned playfully, coyly severe. “And I must say, your behavior just now during business hours , . a really, Miss Webb!" “So sorry, Mr. Bell.” Leone was mocking her own efficiency. “We won’t let it happen again, will we? Well, just once more. Now, for instance,” “Darling . . .** After a long moment and some small murmurings, I heard a click and then the sound erf a door opening and closing. I opened my door and shot through the darkened conference room. I got my gloves, hat, eoat and purse out erf my locker. I had a few things, which might or might not mean anything, to report to Steve. The elevator was so crowded that when its operator Implored his passengers to face the front it was all I could do to obey. Then I wished I hadn’t. My nose was practically flattened against the back of a young man’s neck. As 1 pulled back my head and my eyes focused, that neck, the ears above it, the set of the shoulders beneath it seemed familiar. .1 tried to place them. I was trapped too tightly to the bow descending car to edge around for a look at the face, so 1 had to be content to work with what I could see. Immediately, I eliminated Mr. Belk Ear-wise, Uris couldn’t be he. Besides, Bell was taller, older. Then I eliminated Bob Spencer.

man had an athletic east tn Mm ... and then I had it. This was the young man whoae voice I had first heard in Studio J, next heard making a phony excuse to a policeman for Ms presence at U Rhinebeck Place. This was a young man I wanted to know more about. It soon developed that this was a young man in a hurry. Almost before I knew it I was chasing after Mm through the cbiU December night . . • up Madison Avenue, down into an Independent Subway Station, onto an E train bound for Long Island. My maneuvering to keep out of Ms sight proved unnecessary. He waa slouched down in Ma seat. His hat was pushed so far back off his juvenile, clean-cut face that his crew cut was showing. He was scowling at the floor as though be disapproved of it He was so engrossed in iris own troubles that I could have sat on Ms lap without his noticing it We had a nice, tong subway ride together. He almost missed bis stop; he came to just in time. I was lucky to get out between the closing doors. We were in Kew Gardens. I wondered, nervously, what tn the world we were doing in Kew Gardens. He walked rapidly through a business district I stayed across the street from him. In the middle of the last Nock of stores, before the terrain went purely residential, was a still lighted stationery-tobacco type shop. He disappeared intuit, leaving me With my mouth open, gasping tar air. I leaned gratefully against a hobby shop window and waited. Five minutes later he was still in there. The store had no side exits that he might have used. I was sure that he hadn’t known X was following him, so he wouldn’t have asked to use the store’s rear exit to elude me. -11 decided I had better investigate. I crossed the Street, eased up to the glass door and saw immediately that, except for the chubby, youngish woman behind the counter, the store was empty. My man had gone. I went into the store. There was a phone booth in the corner; there was no one in it “Yes, mlM?" The lady’s voice was sweet as sugar. ’“Can I help you?” “I saw a young fellow come in here a few minutes ago. X thought X recognized him." “You mean Jack Walston? He’s the last person earn* in.” “Yes! Jack Walston! I haven’t seen him for years. 4 “Not for years, huh? Where’d you know Jack?” “We ... we went to school together.” "Really!" The lady was ao pleased it made me wish Jack / and I had gone to school together. “Grade or high?” “Grade."
