Cunning ham, president of Davidson col lege, declared here tonight in a baccalaureate sermon before grad uating seniors of N. C. State col lege. N In a talk keyed to current prob lems before a wartime, technical ly-trained class of young men who will be graduated a full month ahead of normal years, Dr. Cun ningham urged a “return to the rugged virtues.’ . The services were held m the open-air Raleigh Little Theater amphitheater, just off the college campus. Dr Cunningham took his text from Zaccariah 4:6-“Not by might, nor by power, but my spir it saith the Lord”-and termed his subject, “Weapons of our De fense.” _ 2 Two German Prisoners Captured In Canada OTTAWA. May 8.—CP)—Two Ger man war prisoners who escaped Tuesday were arrested today, Royal Canadian Mounted Police reported. The Germans, both aviation lieu tenants. were Reinhardt Pfundter •nd Ernst Wagner < [ te the One flPELRIPE HUMPHRIES WRITTEN FOR AND RELEASED BY CENTRAL PRESS ASSOCIATION ig I CHAPTER TWENTY I After that day, when Tibby and Wayne had agreed to be friends, - shaking hands solemnly to seal the pledge, their friendship ripened rapidly. They called one another now by their first names; they nearly always had a snack of some kind together when the flying les son was over; they were on a fa miliar, comradely sort of footing. There was nothing more than friendship, however. If Wayne still felt that there were other things he might want to say to her. he must have still felt, too, that it was too soon to say them, or he respected her agreement that they would be friends, an agreement on her part that had stressed that that was all they could be. Then one day—the lesson over Wayne asked her if she would go to the aviation banquet that was being held in one of the big hotels the following Friday evening. “I think you’ll enjoy it.” he said. ‘‘There will be lots of famous fly ers there, several interesting speakers, and afterward a dance on the roof garden.” “It sounds lovely,” Tibby admit ted. although 'as soon as she had. she wished she hadn’t. This would be going a step further. This was the first time Wayne had asked for what might well be consider ed a “date.” It was still well with in the boundaries of friendship, but also there still was Steena to be considered. Tibby happened to know that Steena was counting on being in vited to the aviation banquet her self. She expected Wayne to invite her. She even had discussd what she would wear on such a momen tous occasion, for this banquet was the outstanding event of the sea son. She had said she wished she could have a new dress, as of course she would want to look her very best and do Wayne justice. And here w a s Wavne inviting Tibby “I’ll pick you up around seven thirty.” He took her admission that the affair would be “lovely” as an acceptance. That was his way, to take acceptance for grant ed. “But I’m . . . I’m not sure I can go.” Tibby said, not as read ily as she should have, for she would like to go. She even had a new dress to wear, one that—so far—she had not had any occasion to wear anywhere, but how could she explain this to Steena? How could she hurt her by accepting an invitation Steena had not re ceived? “What do you mean, you are not sure?” Wayne's steel-gray eyes met hers with that penetrat ing look that would brook no eva sion. “You haven’t another en gagement so far ahead, have you? Or if so. surely it is one you could break, under the circumstances. The aviation ball is quite a doings, my dear.” His tone implied that she ought to realize that; also that it w'as not every girl who had a chance to attend such an impor tant function. She knew. too. that he meant, by that look, to remind her that a refusal would be going back on their agreement. “No-no,” she said. "I haven'* any other engage ment.” It would be fun to dress up. to dance on a roof garden to a “name” orchestra, to meet ex citing and interesting people. “Then I shan’t take no,” Wayne said firmly. Why did she always try to refuse him? He was sure it was not because she did not want to go. Every girl enjoyed an af fair of this kind. Almost every girl especially enjoyed it when es corted by such a competent escort as Wayne had reason to believe he could be, when it so suited him. “I’ll be ready,” Tibby promised. “I’m always ready on time. If you’ll just have the chauffeur honk or press the downstairs buzzer.” That was the arrangement when Wayne called for Steena. And maybe Tibby had some wild idea of trying to keep Steena from knowing this time that the call was not for her. To spare Steena’s feelings mostly, not to try to de ceive her, for Tibby knew, hav ing committed herself this far, that Steena would have to know eventually. When that time came, Tibby decided, they would have to have it out. Tibby would tell Steena that she and Wayne were friends—nothing more—and that she had had to accept his invita tion. I may dispense with the ser vices ot my chauffeur that eve ning.” Wayne smiled in his slow, amused way. for he was amused, since it occurred to him now that he saw an inkling as to her con stant and continuous efforts at re fusing to accept his attentions Tibby shared the same apartment with Steena Winters. That meant that she knew he often took Steena out in the evening. He even had thought of ta'king Steena to this particular ball, but on an impulse he had asked Tibby instead. She might have thought he would take her roommate. That could be ad justed easily. Steena would re ceive a call—perhaps a charter trip flight, something unexpected. Wayne was as expert at managing any such small situation that might prove embarrassing, as eas ily as he was able to get his own way in much more important mat ters. He did not intend now. however, to let Tibby know that he suspect ed why she had been hesitant and why she had suggested his chauf feur give the signal that he was waiting. Wayne could manage even that small an embarrass ment. for it might be as embar rassing to her. he could see now. as it would for him. were he to concede that he had to offer any explanation as to whom he should invite to the banquet. He said. ‘‘Perhaps you wouldn’t mind takirg a cab and meeting at the hotel? It just so hap pens that Friday will be a pretty full day. for me. There are some charter trips that must be worked in and it would hurry me to have to go home and change, then pick you up.” “Oh, that will be fine.” Tibby hoped her relief was not too no ticeable. She did not mind at all taking a cab. She.much preferred it. “That's most considerate of you.” He thanked her with that ironic little twist to his handsome lips. “Until Friday, then—and don't you dare disappoint me, Cin derella. Or try to slip away at 12 o'clock. And. by the way, I shall have your flowers sent to the ho tel. too, so they will be fresher. Give your name to the maid in the powder room; she will have them to pin on you.” Tibby thanked him. promising not to disappoint him.

It had been a long time since she had had a corsage, a chance to dress up. Tommy never took her anywhere that required formal attire. He never sent her flowers. And, aside from Tommy—who really did not count—there was no one else to provide such luxuries. Tibby would feel like Cinderella, as Wayne had called her teasing ly. She would be terribly excited and thrilled, although such emo tions were slightly dampened when she thought of Steena’s dis appointment. But Steena was disappointed in | a different way. She announced on j Thursday that she had to make a ! special charter flight. Some very famous motion picture stars were to be the passengers. Steena seem ed so excited over this that it les sened any disappointment she might, otherwise have felt, as she explained that that mean* she could not go to the aviation ball, since she could not possibly get back until Saturday. “Just imagine meeting Clark Gable!” Steena exclaimed. “And Bobert Taylor—at least I think he is one of them. They’re all going south to the big preview of that Civil war picture. And Wayne said he wanted me to be hostess, be cause he knew I would get quite a kick out of it.” Tibby wondered if Wayne had inferred that he would have taken Steena to 'he banquet, had she been home. Steena left that im pression. although maybe only to cover her hurt at not having been asked when she had counted on it. In a way it did not seem quite fair, if Wayne had done this even, if it did make matters simpler for Tibby. for she could tell Steena afterward that Wayne had taken her to the dance. Steena would not need to know he had asked Tibby ahead of time. Being Steena. she probably would de cide Tibby had been second choice. 4 tTo Be Continued) -V Bulky Deed Of Trust Filed In Whiteville WHITEVILLE, May b—Register of Deeds Leo L Fisher blinked his eyes, gulped and scratched his head simultaneously this morning when the bulkiest single document in county history was filed for registration.
