habia un aSiento desOcupado.
Nos colocaron en- fila despu6s dc ha-

los hombros, y el conserjc, Juan 81
Boricua, como lie llama mabamos, con una
bandera en- la mano di0 ia senal.

Dele pasar los inexpertos, que,
como era dc cspcrar, dicron pronto
con sus cucrpos Ell TERRA. entire. las
carcajadas dc los cspcctadores. 70,
mct6dicamentc, sin prisa, muy segu.
70 dc mi, iba avanzando. En- cada sal
to CANADA medic metro. Mis- amigos
me animaban con sus voccs.
Muy bicn, muy bien... Adelantc
Marcelino..
En cfccto, me ha puesto dclanto de
todos. Los pocos que me preccdian,
unOs, la mayorfa, Sc han caido; otros
Sc han retrasadO. En- un momcnto dc
dcscansO vuelvo la cabcza. Detras dc
mi viene Ramiro, y tras 81, bastante

De pronto siento que me dan un EN-
puj6n caigO al suelo. RamirO cae
encima de MI Con un violento csfucr-

70 me tienc sujeto, Y entire su peso y
las ataduras del saco no me puedO mo-
yer. Adcmas, al cacr me he hccho da

dc sangre.
Los gritos de publico me advicrten
entire tanto que va hay un vcncedor:
Viva Pepito! viva Pcpito!
Pepc es el que la gamado. En- el
fondo no 10 siento. Prefiero que sea
81 que sea otro; pero me dh mucho
corajc el papcl ridiculo que Rahlirb
me ha hccho hacer.
Me poncm en- pie, me 'quitam eI saeo,
me lavan la cara y me encuentro q
Ramiro, que vicnc hacia mi con la ma
no cxtendida.
