failure that will probably cause Pete

bring that up II he sees this ar
ticlc.
Ben was thoroughly disguised and
told Pete in no uncertain terms that
he was through. lie even suggested
derisively that Pete try wrestling.
Pete was not highly elsted with
the result Of the bout either and
answered self donrecistirEly: 20. X.
