Zone more!" she gasped breathless-
ly, and played on.
Five times that last and deciding
game went to deuce, and then came the
shot-the shot that stood between vic
tory and possible defeat--and she
made it. Leaping high in the air she
smashed the ball In gray streak down
the alley; and the game was won!
"Game-set-and match! Wheer'
shouted the professor Of English.
"Great work, Andy, old grill" And he
patted his dropping little partner on
the shoulder.
The racket slipped from her ex-
hausted grasp and she swayed weakly.
1--WE won !" she murmured, and would
have fallen If the professor hadn't put
his arm about her and led her to
bench.
"Why, you blessed lamb, you, Andy
Andrews" said Edna Phray, sitting
beside her and shaking her by the
shoulders. 'I never knew you to play
such tennis. The lamb has turned IT,

men, who stood over them.
"Don't maui me, Eddie" protested
Cassandra, feebly; "I'm all in," and
then she smiled up at the professor,

"You won," he said. ....
'T didn't. because you played some

The next morning she slipped into
her seat demurely as usual. As usual,
too, there was q cluster Of girls

chattering gaily. But then, what did
she care? Hadn't he called her sandy,
old girl" only yesterday? And she
smiled in prim superiority. And when
the recitation was over he would have
detained her a moment, but she ig-
nored the intention with fine indiffer-
ence and passed out with the rest.
For a week she avoided him sue
cessfully, then late one afternoon he
met her face to face on the campus.
"And what did I ever do to you?"
he demanded when she would have
spoken calmly and passed on.
"You called me ANDY, old girl"
she said grimly, "and I've hated you
ever since"
"You're not going to bite me, are
you, Andy, old girl?" grinned the pro-
fessor of English.
She could maintain her gravity no
longer and little sparkles of gold flick
cred in her brown eyes. "Tll try not
to-" she murmured with little laugh
agilely lodging the eager sweep Of his
arm.
| And then the professor threw his
dignity out Of the window and started
In pursuit through the trees, catching
her right where she'd planned he
should, In narrow and secluded path.
Then after he had kissed her, she
reached up and clutched his head be-
tween her hands, shaking 1t fiercely.
"And remember" she said between her
clenched teeth, 81 will not be called
ANDY, old girl won't love you any
more If you call me that. hate It."
"All right, you darling Andy, old
girl" chuckled the professor.
But when he kissed her again she
only clung to him eagerly. Queer
thing, a woman!
