We all

shared

the same

license.

Me, my

girl

Ora and

my

sometimes

buddy,

Nat. And

tonight,

the big

night,

I

(Unit 1)

had a

date

with

Ora (Unit

2) at 8:00 sharp.

And I

was

late,

already

a half

hour

late.

Traffic

being

light,

I'd

taken

the

ocean

drive

(to pick

out

a parking

place

in

advance)

and

no sooner

was

I

committed

to this

route

than

fog com-

menced

to roll

in. At

8:30

I

crawled

along

at 10 per,

still

a good

15

minutes

from

Ora's

beach

house.

I tried

to

find

some

jazz on

FM, which

is scarce

along

this

coast.

Near-

est station

is

on

the island,

50

miles

away,

and

it

wasn't

making

it

through

the

fog.

I switched

over

to

CB

just

as

Ora put

her

carrier

on

and pinned

my

needle.

"This

is

Unit

2,"

she

said softly.

"Unit

1, where

are

you ?"

A

sweat

trickled

down

my

spine.

I

came

back,

"Crawling

along

in

this

darn

fog.

I'll be

there

by 8:45."

I

speeded

up

a little.

"That's

nice,

because

at 8:50

I lock

the

doors -",

a

bit of

dead

carrier

indicated

Ora considered

her

next

thought,

" -and

call Nat."

Nat

and

I both

have

a thing

for

her

but

so far

the competition

had been

more

or

less

polite. Anyway

Unit

3 must

have

heard

Ora because

on the

air he came.

Darn

it!

"Unit 1, CQ

Unit

1." His

carrier

cut out

briefly. "This

is

Unit 3

with

emergency

traf-

fic."

He sounded

breathless

and

all

that.

I pretended

not

to

hear

and

speeded

up

a

little

more.
