"Are you girls going to New London?"

"Yes."

"Well, there are plenty of seats up front."

"So tell me, how was Freddy?"

"Well, you know Freddy. It was raining so damn hard and everybody was going to watch the game on TV, but well, you know Freddy."

"How was the game?"

"Dartmouth won."

"Ohhh? I was looking for you when the train reached the New Haven station."

"Well, we just made it. You should have seen Freddy on the way to the station. He had one of my nylons hanging from the aerial."

"That Freddy, he must be something. A real Yalie."

"Yeah, and I'm missing an earring too. Wow, what a weekend!"

"I could have had a date, but something got fouled up. Greta and I went to New York. We were up till three Saturday night just talking."

"Freddy wanted to meet you."

"It's too bad you were so late. What happened?"
