“Yes,” Nita assented. “Nobody else on the committee knows her at all except Rachel, and she is as surprised as the rest of us.”
“Gee!” Bob’s tone was deep with meaning. “Then I know who won’t like it.”
“Who?” Babe ended her dance to ask.
“Jean Eastman,” said Bob solemnly.
Babe gave her a disdainful glance. “How much brains do you think it takes to find that out, Bob Parker? Of course she won’t like it.”
But Bob only smiled loftily and declared that if Roberta hadn’t come in by this time they must all go straight home to dinner.
