ting around with your wife won-
dering whether your son has
eloped, has been kidnapped, has
become a junkie, is on a drunk,
or is lying dead in a ditch.
Thus speculating, we took
turns. She'd be white with ap-
prehension, I'd be red with rage.
Then we'd turn red and white
simultaneously, she with anger,
I with fear.
And while we were thus en-
gaged, do you know where he was?
Wining and dining, playing a
Steinway grand piano, in a swank
apartment on Park Avenue, New
York City,
Next night, I phoned his room-
mate. Yep, Mr. Smiley, he'd had
a card from Hugh. From Green-
wich Village. Having a ball. Next
stop, Baltimore.
This threw the whole family
(Kim was in on it too, busting
with excitement,) into one of the
finest frenzies of rage and relief
we've ever enjoyed.
Suddenly, I had one of those
rare flashes of insight which
make people who don't know me
think I'm a genius."Baltimorel"
I cried. l'Ah-hal Baltimore."
I reminded the Old Girl that
she had a cousin studying at
Johns Hopkins University, Haiti-
UCW hold dinner
and quilting bee
Chiselhurst United Church Wo-
men met last Tuesday combining
a pot luck dinner and quilting.
President Mrs. R. Taylor pre-
sided,
The devotional with the theme
"God promises, we prepare",
was led by Mrs. Clarence Cole-
man. Missionary prayer was of-
fered by Mrs. Torn Brintnell.
Business was discussed and it
was decided to continue with the
quiltings.
Further study on"Brazil" was
given by Mrs. Percy Harris, Mrs.
Jack Brintnell and Mrs. Ben
Stoneman. Mrs. George Boa con-
tributed a reading.

more. She said I was crazy, he
wouldn't dare go there, and if he
had, Cousin Pat would have
phoned.
I insisted. She called, got
Cousin Pat and his wife in jig-
time. My wife didn't want to
sound like a complete moron and
ask if Hugh were there. So she
asked gaily, “How is the boy?"
(They'd had a baby boy a few
months previously.)
Cousin Pat retorted, "Yours
or mine?" And the Baltimore
Oriole, as he is now known inthe
family, was in the net. Almost.
He came on the line, ""H1 Mom.
How are you?" Gay as an oriole.
Innocent as a novice nun. When
his mother was able to talk, she
told him, for 20 minutes, how she
was, and what he was. Finally,
Kim and I wrested the telephone
from her, and I spent 45 seconds
telling him to be home 'by the
weekend.
He was. Large as life, cheer-
ful as a cherub. During the week-
end, when he wasn't sleeping or
eating or skiiing, he regaled us
with his tale.
He'd caught the urge to travel
late Friday night. Struck off at
3 a.m., in ski jacket and jeans.
Hitch-hiked. Caught rides with
university sutdents, Negro ladies,
hillbillies.
Arrived New York with 20
cents. Went to coffee-house to
keep warm. Ordered coffee.
Waiter said, ,,Sixty-five cents."
Hugh said, ""I've only got 20."
Waiter took it. Read French novel
and talked to junkies, students
and assorted characters all night.
Sold pint of blood in Times
Square for $5. Ate. Later phoned
gentleman musician he'd met in
his summer job on cruise boat,
who had foolishly said, Any time
you're in New York, look me up."
This chap and his wife met the
ski-jacketed bum in jeans with
warmth, fed him, enjoyed a musi-
cal evening together, gave him
sleeping quarters, and sent him
on his way with $15 cash.
Hitch-hiked to Baltimore. Had
pleasant evening with Cousin Pat
and wife Stephanie. Immediate
plans to head for Florida and ,
visit with friends of ours then
meander to New Orleans, where
he knows a couple of girls he met
at music camp, but foiled by
parent& phone call.
Returned home with $'7.88,
cash. Disgusted with parents'
attitude. After all, he'd sent us a
card from New York. (We got it
the day before he arrived home.)
He's back at school, but there's
still one thing bothering us. Kim
can hardly wait to get started on
her first trip.
