Chapter 18 Summary (Extra Credit)

In this chapter Holden leaves the skating rink to go down the street to a store to get a Swiss cheese sandwich because he was getting hungry. As Holden is on his way to the store he is thinking in his head about Jane and wants to call her but doesn't want to because he thinks about the incident where Jane was at the dance with another boy. But Holden couldn't take it anymore so he calls her and she doesn't answer, but then after that he decides to call a boy by the name of Carl Luce and sets and appointment to get drinks later on. So Holden goes to kill time and goes down to Radio City Orchestra and watches the performance and starts to get flashbacks about when he and Allie likes the Kettledrum player even though he is unnoticed, but they like him because he looks like he is happy doing what he is doing and taking allot of pride in joy in it. So then after the Radio City Orchestra he starts too walk down to the Wicker Bar where he is suppose to meet Carl Luce as he is headed on his way to the bar he is thinking about the movie which was about the War. Holden thinks about the Army because of the movie and how he never ever wants to go to the War because he would rather be shot or sit on a Atomic Bomb. Which i think is really stupid because i would rather go to war and fight for my country and fight for freedom instead of sit there and try to kill myself.
