After Ruth had gone, Gladys sat alone in her room and pondered the situation, and as she thought, her mood darkened. Something was wrong. It had been a lojig engagement, and when, out of her longing to have Elmore with hir, she had suggested in indirect ways that she wished they could have a home together, he had evaded her suggestion. It never occurred' to her that her mother might be the obstacle. "Not even Elmore is dearer to me than you, mother dear, and between you and him, I can make a quick choice," Gladys thought to herself "But I don't--I don't want to give > him up!" her heart told her almost with a cry. | The rest of the afternoon the prob- ^ lem raced back and forth in her mind.

Armstrong, state draft director, recently. Explaining that some Illinois draft boards are running short of 1-A registrants, Armstrong said in a statement that the boards may find it necessary soon to re-classify some registrants previously deferred. "Local boards are required to make diligent investigations in cases where there is suspicion that a marriage was contracted for the purpose of evading service," he said. "A registrant claiming deferment on the ground of marriage must file written statements of fact showing that his status was acquired in the ordinary course of human affairs and not for the purpose of avoiding service." Armstrong conceded that there had been wide variation in the rulings of local boards on marriage deferments, and said it continued to be orte of the most vexing problems confronting the selective service system. He urged the local boards to decide each case carefully on its merits. in. to the thirty-five. A sleeper pass, SStGUn - ing to Jackson, put the ball on the Zion forty-three.

"Dear, is there any reason--any real reason why we can't have a home together now? I hate to ask you this way," she said gently, "but I want you to be frank with me." His gray eyes grew suddenly sober, and his manner changed. "In good time, Sweetheart, in good time. It's the waiting that bothers, I know, but we'll work it out. Now, you leave it to me." Troubled in mind and in heart, she did not know what to do. But by the end. of the next day, she had reached the decision; and alone in her room site wrote Elmore a brief note telling him what she had heard and informing him that she could not bear to think of leaving her mother or living apart from her after their long years of companionship. Then, after effort, she added the sentence that broke the engagement between them. As she slipped down the stairs, her toother came into the hall. "Gladys; Elmore telephoned that he was coming over," her mother said smiling, her gentle, motherly , face brightening with pleasure. Gladys stopped short. "Mother, pleaee tell him not to come. I really don't want to see him." "Why, child, child--is there something wrong?" her moicr asked with sudden concern. "Nothing much, mother mine. You just phone him/' Gladys said hastily, slipping out. "I'm going to the mail box." When she returned, she stole into her room, her heart too full to risk even meeting her mother. As she sat beside the window she heard Elmore's voice and her mother's talking in the garden. "She is worried, my boy, over something," her mother's sweet voice was saying. "I don't blame her. I guess we •night as well let her into the secret. The house is about finished, anyway -ryour rooms are O. K., and Gladys and I can get along. How'd you like the rooms?" Elmore's cheery voice asked.

Zion's kick was returned to the McHenry thirty-seven, where the quarter ended. On the first play of the thrill-packed final quarter, McHenry lost twelve yards on a lateral pass. Johnny Starr (who, by the way. lived up to his name), returned the punt to McHenry's thirty-eight. On the second play Johnny took the ball on a double reverse and went over to score. St. Germain's kick was low of the crossbar. Enispar carried Zion's kickoff to the thirty-five. Joe Jackson tossed to Schaefer for fifteen yards before Stanintercepted a pass on his own fortyfive.

Here again, the play looked as if it would break through for a score. Ed caught Jacksou's pass on the Zion forty-six, but Turner intercepted Stilling's next pass and ran forty yards to end McHenry's drive. Another trick reverse put the ball on McHenry's nineteen. A penalty annulled a five yard gain and Osman passed to Turner on the eight. LaBelle picked up a first down. On third down Dick Conway spilled Turner for a fifteen yard loss and Osjjnan's pass was broken up in the entf-aana. McHenry took over. Jackson picked up twelve yards wh?n he faded back to pass but couldn't find a receiver. Stilling'? pass and Lay's, twenty yard run put the ball on the Zion twenty-five.
