It
would
take
six
dollars
to
join
and
five
dollars
to
get
into
the
tournament
.
When
you
took
the
bus
down
Main
you
passed
Henry
Clay
High
;
it
was
eleven
blocks
from
Janwell
Drive
.
And
it
was
five
weeks
until
Thanksgiving
.

“
Can
anyone
say
it
verbatim
?
”
Mrs
.
MacArthur
said
.
Beth
put
up
her
hand
.
“
Beth
?
”
She
stood
.
“
In
any
right
triangle
the
square
of
the
hypotenuse
is
equal
to
the
sum
of
the
squares
of
the
other
two
sides
.
”
She
sat
down
.
Margaret
snickered
and
leaned
toward
Gordon
,
who
sat
beside
her
and
sometimes
held
her
hand
.
“
That
’
s
the
brain
!
”
she
whispered
in
a
soft
,
girlish
voice
radiant
with
contempt
.
Gordon
laughed
.
Beth
looked
out
the
window
at
the
autumn
leaves
.

“
I
do
not
know
where
the
money
goes
!
”
Mrs
.
Wheatley
said
.
“
I
have
bought
little
more
than
trifles
this
month
,
and
yet
my
hoard
has
been
decimated
.
Decimated
.
”
She
plopped
into
the
chintz
-
covered
armchair
and
stared
at
the
ceiling
for
a
moment
,
wide
-
eyed
,
as
if
expecting
a
guillotine
to
fall
.
“
I
have
paid
electric
bills
and
telephone
bills
and
have
bought
simple
,
uncomplicated
groceries
.
I
have
denied
myself
cream
for
my
morning
coffee
,
have
bought
nothing
whatever
for
my
person
,
have
attended
neither
the
cinema
nor
the
rummage
sales
at
First
Methodist
,
and
yet
I
have
seven
dollars
left
where
I
should
have
at
least
twenty
.
”
She
laid
the
crumpled
one
-
dollar
bills
on
the
table
beside
her
,
having
fished
them
from
her
purse
a
few
moments
before
.
“
We
have
this
for
ourselves
until
the
end
of
October
.
It
will
scarcely
buy
chicken
necks
and
porridge
.
