few minutes later. when they step
ped into the street together. Ned ran
on ahead and disappeared around the
corner. ostensibly TO telephone friend.
But the telephone message was written

Harvard had not scored Expressions
of mingled surprise and disappointment
were plainly visible on many faces in
the crowded stand.

every ball IN the first half He was
not playing IN his usual form.
When time" was called, Ned Sum
mers rushed up to a small boy stand
ing on the field. All out OF breath from
playing, he gasped:
Run 10 Bob Terbel's room Know
where it is? All right Bring the
pennsnt hanging on the manteI. Bring
it here as fast as you can scamper."
AS the players took their positions
for the second half Bob TerbeI. bend
ing over with his head between his
knees. glanced casually at the grand
stand Through the space he saw
white-letter pennant floating in the
breeze. Without thought Of the game.
he stood erect, Just as the signal was

ing his nose guard. he stood for min
ute while the signal was held
'X-Y-Z-1l-3" called the quarterback.
as Bob resumed his position The light
for the piEslln was on.
Bob played football as we'll in the sec
ond half as he had played badly in the
first. and all because he saw a face be-
hind a flying pennant.
But you played so much better in the
last half, Bob said Lourene. as she put
