Kay plays football in the street |
| Description: |
Fun, upbeat, and boisterous theme for Kay as she plays football in the street; the theme is later associated with both of the daughters, Kay and Veda; it features a recurring dotted-rhythm upper neighbor gesture; played by high-register strings over a fast-moving arpeggiated bass line |

| Analysis: |
The three-note gesture in measures 17-18 is very similar to the Mildred Motto, suggesting perhaps a mother-daughter relationship between Mildred's theme and that of her children |
