Guest 12 September 02:35 P.M.: The other night I went to a party where I knew very few of the people present. Everyone was very nice, however, and there were several - Joyce, Johnny, Keith among them- that I look forward to meeting again.

But rather later than the others a man came in who never introduced himself to me although I thought I heard him say something in a low voice that sounded like, "Doin' tonight?" as he went by me. He looked interesting, hidden behind his beret pulled over his eye and with his leather jacket, so the next time I saw Mary, the hostess, I asked her who he was. She was mystified. Who was I talking about?

I said, Well, he was kind of tall. He had a funny hat on, and I think a dark jacket. She laughed. You're going to have to give me more information than that!

I said, Well, he came in about 9 o'clock- does that help?

We looked over the crowd. There was no one wearing a hat or a coat, for that matter. There were several tall men, but she identified each of them and none of them sounded like the man I was talking about.
