" , Bob's heart came out of his well-polished shoes and back into his chest where it belonged. He gave a shy grin of thankfulness. "I'm certainly glad to see you, Miss Davis. I'm— I'm certainly glad you remembered me." silent past . . . An acute case of modesty plus an equally acute case of stagefright, that's what it was. Most actors are comparatively tree from both. But Bob always had been modest, and he'd had attacks of stage fright from the time he first decided to be an actor at the age of eight or thereabouts. His first public appearance m the dramatic field was the flop of all time. He was supposed to recite a poem in Sunday School. It was Easter Sunday, and the attendance was large. Too large for young Robert. He got up on the platform, took one look at the audience— and forgot every single word of the poem. He made a bow, trying frantically to remember something. Anything! He opened his mouth. Closed it. Bowed again. Somebody laughed Bob went sixteen shades of crimson and descended from the platform without having uttered a syllable. For some years after that, he was discouraged about his future as an actor. He turned his attention to the more practical matters of baseball, arithmetic (which he wasn't very good at) and skating, which he loved. He lived in the Hudson River town of Kingston, where the winters were long. It was through his passion for skating that he encountered the fascinating field of Girls. One night when he was in the eighth grade, he went skating, not giving it his usual attention because he was worried about an arithmetic exam next day. He noticed absently that one curly -headed minx followed him around all evening. "Skate with me, Bob," she'd implore. "You're a wonderful skater." Bob skated with her, solemnly, his mind still on arithmetic. "Walk home with me, Bob," she begged, when the log fire had died down and people started to unfasten their skates. "Huh? Listen, I gotta get home in a hurry and study." "Aw, we live in the same direction. Won't take you any longer." "Well— okay." They walked along under the bare, icy branches of a birch grove. And suddenly, Bob found himself backed against a . birch tree while Curly Head kissed him determinedly. "Hey!" he protested feebly when he could get his breath. "What's the matter? Didn't you like it?" She gave him the devil's own grin. He didn't know whether he liked it or not. He stayed awake all that night, wondering. The next morning he took the arithmetic exam and got 100! Maybe kissing was a great invention. ... During High School his interest in girls was steady, if not romantic.
