Flying Co-Ed

By MARY K. MOORE

CAST OF CHARACTERS ANNE NORRIS—Wealthy college student, looking for thrills, enrolls in CAA fiving course, GEORGETTE PARKER-—Anne's friend. Learning to fly is a serious business with her. TONY SCOTT--College playboy, son of a gangster, envies Anne's social position. CAPT. DICK DOUGLAS—Instructor of the student flying course at Midland University.

YESTERDAY-—Anne and Georgette enroll for flying instruction in CAA sponsored college courses. Anne is more interested in Tony than in flying, But she promises to be a headache to Instructor Dick Douglas. Forgetting all about flying as she sees Tony's car approaching, Anne walks toward a spinning propellor. Georgette screams,

CHAPTER TWO

THERE WAS a split second that was horror for that small group of people, Georgette, Dick Douglas, Bob Davis and Anne. Then Dick was racing toward the girl, roughly snatching her back from the whirling metal blade. Anne hardly realized that he had saved her life, “Of all the boneheaded stunts, that wins the prize,” Dick's slow voice was full of anger and of sarcasm. “You're just the type who thinks ‘stop, look, and listen’ was meant for everybody else.” “You needn’t use all your sarcasm on me,” Anne flared. “I probably wouldn't have walked clear into that prop anyway. But thanks for saving my life.” “Listen, Miss Norris, don't thank me, I just didnt want our safety record spoiled.” Dick's cool voice added to Anne's rage. In a moment she would have been in tears, but Tony's hand on her arm brought her attention to him.

“I saw you, as I parked my car,”

he told her. “Are you all right?” He, put one arm a hit too solicitously! about her shoulder | “She's great,” Dick Douglas spoke again, “with a whole field to stroll in, she walks right at a whirling prop.” “I already have said ‘thank you,’ Mr. Gallant Knight.” | Tony, still with arm about Anne, cautioned Dick. “You'd probably be a little nicer to this girl if you] knew who she is—Arnold Dwight's | her uncle and her guardian.” “Thanks, I know all that,” Dick started toward the cockpit of the ship, “but she’s still just a glamour girl with a rotogravure complex.” Anne stared at him in angry ha- | tred, pulled herself free from Tony's arm. moved quickly after Dick, stopped him with a shaken, almost sobbing voice. “You're not going to have me as a student just to add | to vour glory.” "Come on Anne™ came Tony's] urging plea, "let's get out of this.” | “All right, let's,” she agreed shak- | ilv, “I'm tired of being always in the | wrong.” Tony took Anne's arm sively and together they crossed to his car, while Dick Douglas reassured Georgette ! “Forget it. You were scheduled for advance maneuvers this next half hour, so rome on and see how | it feels. You'd better be good or that airline pilot brother of yours | will hold it against me.” And in! another moment they were in the air. » » »

TONY AND Anne went to Tony's car. As they slid in under the wheel, he put one hand over Anne's “Thevre not worth bothering about,” he gloated, ‘we'll show them they cant run you Come on, Sweetheart, let's do like I've said go on over to North Point and— come back married.” “Oh, Tony, no. I just can't’ “Why not? Do vou want to stay here and be pushed around by that fiving guy, and have your uncle tell you ‘do this, and do that, and don't do this and don't you dare do that'?” Anne's vanishing anger was whipped into a flame by Tony's] words and, quick to see her indecision, he went on:
