"This is some brother you have." She smiled into Peter's face as they Paul most was what made girls vulnerable whenever his twin and moon-eyebrother, Peter, was about. There was no denying it, girls usually fell for Peter's line. He was smooth. Paul had seen it happen too many times. Fear gripped his heart as he thought it was about to happen again tonight this time to "too nice a girl." Pensively, Paul tugged at the chair under him and moved closer to the table in tiie El Zebni club. He pas.:ed Ins hand fondly and carressinf'l.v over the beaver jacket on the chair beside him.

He had executed a feeler: "How about making It stag tonight?" "Nothing doing," Peter had said. "Besides, you've already made the date True, the date was made and Ann did want to meet Peter. Would she be less susceptible to Peter's soft impeachment? Thank goodness this was the last dance. Paul feared the worst. He tried to put the fear from his mind. They were coming back to the table now, both of them laughing, Paul tried to tell himself he was being foolish and torturing the depths of his heart with pain that never really should be there. The obsession stayed with him as they reached the street and there took on more agitation. Peter said: "Well, I'll leave you two alone now. The night is still young for me. See you later in the apartment, Paul. Good night, Ann." "Good night, Peter," Ann said. "Call me before you go away." IS THIS IT? Paul wondered. Is this the beginning to another broken heart? They watched Peter vanish down the dim lit street. He turned at the next corner and waved. In the next instant he was gone and with him a still, hushed silence came over the empty street. The laughter, the gayety, the radiance left Ann's face. Paul prepared himself bravely for what was to come. Ann was talking: "Peter is fun." Fun? Was that how lasting love was defined? Had fun taken the d place of love built on solid, admiration? The love, the deepest affection that normally leads to marriage? Peter was not ready for that. Someone was bound to be hurt, cruelly; he'd not allow it to happen to Ann. He turned to her, words of protest rushing to his lips then suddenly heard her say: ". . . but of the twins, I like you best, Paul." Paul glowed. Ann somehow understoodunderstood that life with rotor, for any girl, would end so a wave of the hand. His heart beating wildly, there on the walk. Paul took Ann into his arms, held her close and vowed to be himself for the rest of his life. hand-in-han- by NANCY PEPPER t 1 FOOLISH NOTIONS With everything you have to about, including what you're to do this Saturday night how do you ever have time to dream up ft K si U 1' these ideas? amazing TOOTH SAVLU Remember that article iin a nation- magazine about tbo pfTpcta nf upenmv; your uoo- by pins with your teeth?

They'd probably be married before Peter would meet her. Paul was afraid of Peter now. Peter. Back Breezy, garrulous home, Paul had always been referred to as the quiet one, when the twins were the subject of The trouble with himself, Paul thought, was that he had always given up too easily to Peter, from childhood up. Peter always did get ths best toys, the best bike, the best clothes, the best of everything. Ann was something Paul wanted more than anything else in his life. She represented the best of everything to him. Determination filled his lean, square-jawe- d face. He WAS the quiet one, up until tonight. Long live the new Paul! It woidd not be easy, Paul reminded himself. Peter had years of experience along these lines. He regarded life about him with hardened indifference, and when Paul sought to reason with him, Peter's face would turn quite blank, his eyes evasive. He never argued, never changed. He'd find love, cultivate it to crop, taste of it, and leave it. Now, with the thought of losing Ann racing through his nervous system, Paul vowed his scruples were to undergo a change.
