PRACTICAL EXAM:
Rain filled the gutters and splashed knee-high off the sidewalk. Big cops in
slickers that shone like gun barrels had a lot of fun carrying giggling girls across the bad
places. The rain drummed hard on the roof of the car and the burbank top began to leak.
A pool of water formed on the floorboards for me to keep my feet in. It was too early in
the fall for that kind of rain. I struggled into a trench coat and made a dash for the
nearest drugstore and bought myself a pint of whiskey. Back in the car I used enough of
it to keep warm and interested. I was long overparked, but the cops were too busy
carrying girls and blowing whistles to bother about that.

In spite of the rain, or perhaps even because of it, there was business down at
Geiger's. Very nice cars stopped in front and very nice-looking people went in and out
with wrapped parcels. They were not all men.

He showed at about four o'clock. A cream-colored coupe stopped in front of the
store and I caught a glimpse of the fat face and the Charlie Chan moustache as he
dodged out of it and into the store. He was hatless and wore a belted green leather
raincoat. I couldn't see his glass eye at that distance. A tall and very good-looking kid in
a jerkin came out of the store and rode the coupe off around the corner and came back
walking, his glistening black hair plastered with rain.

Another hour went by. It got dark and the rain-clouded lights of the stores were
soaked up by the blackstreet. Street-car bells jangled crossly. At around five-fifteen the
tall boy in the jerkin came out of Geiger's with an umbrella and went after the cream
colored coupe. When he had it in front Geiger came out and the tall boy held the
umbrella over Geiger's bare head. He folded it, shook it off and handed it into the car.
He dashed back into the store. I started my motor.

The coupe went west on the boulevard, which forced me to make left turn and
lot of enemies, including a motorman who stuck his head out into the rain to bawl me
out. I was two blocks behind the coupe before I got in the groove. I hoped Geiger was
on his way home. I caught sight of him two or three times and then made him turning
north into Laurel Canyon Drive. Halfway up the grade he turned left and took a curving
ribbon of wet concrete which was called Laverne Terrace. It was a narrow street with a
high bank on oneside and a scattering of cabin-like houses built down the slope on the
otherside, so that their roofs were not very much above road level. Their front windows
were masked by hedges and shrubs. Sodden trees dripped all over the landscape.

, MOCK EXAM 11
(1) Geiger had his lights on and I hadn't. I speeded up and passed him on a curve,
picked a number off a house as I went by and turned at the end of the block. He had
already stopped. His car lights were tilted in at the garage of a small house with a square
box hedge so arranged that it masked the front door completely. I watched him come
out of the garage with his umbrella up and go in through the hedge. He didn't act as if
he expected anybody to be tailing him. Light went on in the house. I drifted down to the
next house above it, which seemed empty but had no signs out. I parked, aired out the
convertible, had a drink from my bottle, and sat. I didn't know whatI was waiting for, but
something told me to wait. Another army of sluggish minutes dragged by.

Two cars came up the hill and went over the crest. It seemed to be a very quiet
street. At a little after six more bright lights bobbed through the driving rain. It was pitch
black by then. A car dragged to a stop in front of Geiger's house. The filaments of its
lights glowed dimly and died. The door opened and a woman got out. A small slim
woman in a vagabond hat and a transparent raincoat. She went in through the box maze.
A bell rang faintly, light through the rain, a closing door, silence. I reached a flashy out
of my car pocket and went downgrade and looked at the car. It was a Packard
convertible, maroon or dark brown. The left window was down. I felt for the license
holder and poked light at it. The registration read: Carmen Sternwood, 3765 Alta Brea
Crescent, West Hollywood. I went back to my car again and sat and sat. The top dripped
on my knees and my stomach burned from the whiskey. No more cars came up thehill.
No lights went on in the house before which I was parked. It seemed like a nice
neighborhood to have bad habits in. (2)
