CHAPTER THIRTEEN

DR. LUD’'S ancient but shiny coupe was parked in the driveway. ‘The two men reached it, Paula at their heels. ial Tony said, “Paulie, where are you going?” “With Dr. Lud!” she flung at him. “And don’t try to stop me.” “No time to argue,” Lud commanded. “Let her come.” Backing into the street, Lud said, “If we only knew where to start. We haven't one chance in a hundred driving around blindly.” Tony said, “Gosh, if I'd only kept my mouth shut! I knew the boys were up to something and I blew off to Hal about it. So, of course, -he shut up.” Lud was driving aimlessly about the campus. Tony ‘glanced at Lis wrist watch. “Seven-thirty,” he announced. “If we don’t get a lead soon ...” R: oy
