other boy with the right and while th they y were asleep we went vent through their pockets taking only enough to cover the price of ot the stuff sturt the young lady said ld she he didn't want and a of ot showcases showcases showcases show show- cases which got busted In tho the excitement 1 y roil FOR The reason we ne took the price of the tho stuff the young lady said she didn't want because the tha bo I hit with was vas boy my left leCt did a a. dive Into It which ruined it as Caras far Car faras faras as we were concerned The funny part of it is that while all this was wits going on the young youn lady Indy disappeared disappeared disappeared and so did twelve bucks which Velma Veima was counting and which was inthe un in the cashiers cashier's desk dealt when the fight started This made Velma very sad and as I think she is a fine young lady I give her ne neot neof ne neof of ot the football boys bOs raccoon coats and the next night she come in with a new hat to go O with It It
