time. into the face of the Harvard half back who was making the gains through Yale's line. It was he. Dickin- son. the man who had taken Miss Bax- ter away from him. He bristled up suddenly-Dickinson, Why, then. Miss Baxter must be there. too. Hadn't she thrown him over for Dickinson. He turned sharply and stared into the grand stand. In the mass of people low down near the fence Billy Parker looked straight at a brown haired girl. who sat between an old man who had his hat in the air. and an elderly lady who wore a red carnation. But 1t wasn't that fact that sent the blood from Billy Parkers face Miss Baxter was not in red, for Dickinson. She i wore a blue flag in her dress. Billy Parker stood up on the side lines. witb his mouth open and stared at her. The next moment she saw him and tore out the blue flag and waved it at him. Billy gasped. In spite of the fact that a fresh Harvard yell was going up at that time. Billy Parker jumped through crowd of groaning substitutes ana dived between two coaches who said things to him. and grabbed Tommy No Ian by the shoulder.
 Here, Tommy" he gasped quickly. Drop that pad. Come here" He jerked the perspiring Tommy to his feet and shook him.
 Now" he said shortly, and his eyes blazed, what do you know about Miss Baxter?'
 Tommy Nolan grinned. Billy Par ker shook him again.
 "Out with it." he said He was hot all over
 1T" said Tommy Nolan. q knew a fellow who knew her. I went to see | her.
 ''The deuce you did.'
 T did. Let go of my collar. l found out Dickinson was bigamist; that he had two girls engaged to him at the same time he-met Miss Baxter" Billy lystraightened up. Hutchinson had done that he would punch his head. "I told her-hold on a minute-I told her that if she wanted to leave the summer pi- aga business I'd find her a nice quiet kitchen rocking chair in your flat in Harlem. I told her you had a pair and half of curtains, a bookcase that be- longed to me. an oil stove and a high seat on a bookkeeper's chair in my fathers office in prospect. l changed her minds Then I told the caches all about it. and told them to look out for you and see when the disease broke Now run along to Martin. There's five minutes left to play in-and win the game"
 Billy Parker sat Tommy Nolan down so hard on the bench that Tommy No Ian giggled. Just one idea was in his mind. Dickinson had tricked the girl he loved. An Dickinson was out there on the Harvard team and was winning the game for Harvard. The next mo- ment Billy Parker ran out on the side lines and nodded savagely to Martin, the head coach. who looked from him to Tommy Nolan and then grinned. Then he pushed him out on the field, in a sudden knife-like cheer.
 "Yale, Yale, Yale, Parker,"
 He only turned to glance. on the run. just once. at the girl in a fur boa who sat between an old man with red flag and a disapproving aunt. and who look ed the other way quickly Then hs went in to meet Dickinson and play football.
 The whistle blew. The Yale quarter back. running rapidly around from Billy Parker. patted each Yale man on the back. It was Harvard's ball. frs; down. five yards to go on Yale's five yard line. one final rush like those that had pushed Yale eighty yards down the field and the game would be over There was a moments hush. The Crimson quarter snapped the ball. Dickinson took it. There was a red rush of men in front of him. and with dive Billy Parker broke through the Harvard tackle and end opposite him and fiattened out the Crimson halfback with thud two yards back of where he had started.
 A terrific yell broke from the Yale stands:
 Parker"
 Another signal another flash Of chimson at his end. and Billy lay again with his arms about Dickinson's legs. with two more yards lost for Harvard.
 Third down. nine yards to go.'
 The Yale stands were frantic There was one minute left to play. Billy knew what he was going to do, The Harvard backs dropped behind for d kick for goal. Billy Parker. swinging forward loosely at his end, watched the pass narrowly. He saw what ten tired other pairs of Yale eyes did not see. and that was the stumble that Dickin- son made as he reached forward to take the ball. With the pass Billy was through the line and on him with a rush. Suddenly swerving he lerched forward and. as Dickinson kicked. blocked the ball with his hands and was after it. Before the stands could see what was happening Billy had fal- len under the Harvard halfback's feet. and Thatcher. who was just behind him. had picked up the ball on the run and was ten yards down the field past the Harvard quarterback for a touchdown.
 It was all done so suddenly that Billy Parker was on his feet again before the Yale stands understood what had happened. If he hadn't won Miss Bax- ter back. he had beaten Dickinson. Swarms of cheering frantic Yale men jumped the fence into the gridiron and
