Warned by what happened to the

And now the second half was nearing the
end. The Freshman cause, as happened,
was temporarily, at least, in the ascendant.
By series of close formations, bucking the
line, the team actually had gained twenty
yards without losing the ball. Freshmen
allies were wildly jubilant.
Here, on the second down, Heckie, upon
the side-line, must have scratched his nose.
Perhaps he deemed that the close playing had
sufficiently drawn in the enemy's TANKS; per-
haps he perceived that the plungng had
"blown" his proteges; perhaps his nose
itched; at any rate Harold, one sleeved, pant

Consequently it was quite dark before the
masses could be pried apart sufficiently to
rescue the officials, and by this time interest
in their decision had been swallowed by
various other events transpiring. So the
game was called.

per Sc was perhaps more to be valued, was of

Lewis, who habitually stripped to suspen-
