Glenora Keeps Her Heart Under Lock and Key. No one ever accused Glenora Carson of being a breathtaking beauty. Her talk, gangly figure and angular face are more solid Midwestern stock than Hollywood glamour. But Joe liked her. He even told her, "You're the one for me." He gave her a locket with his picture inside, to remind her of him while he was away, serving his country on the U.S.S. Arizona. After December 7, 1941, Glenora shelves her dreams of attending college on the scholarship she was offered by Iowa State University, locks her heart away, and focuses on holding down the home front by helping out the family business Carson's Garage. The grease-stained overalls didn't do much to compliment her female figure, but they cover her female heart well enough. That is, until Hank Anderson, a wounded warrior back from battle, walks into the garage and into Glenora's life. Is an old maid's future Glenora's fate, or will Cupid throw a wrench in her plans?
