the last winning game against
Andover up to that time).
The game started Exeter began
rolling up points With 30 seconds
left to play, Exeter was leading, Sc
to 0. On the next play the ball
came to Black who dropped back
and made good his promise of the
morning by kicking a field goal, and
when the whistle blew the score
read; Exeter, SO; Andover, 0. A
point for every milestone in the
headmaster's life.
This was high drama. But
greater drama was to follow. AS the
jubilant Exeter youngsters sat in
the dressing room peeling off
steamy, smelly sweaters the news
came to them that the headmaSter
mad just dropped dead in the
stands. The excitement had proved
too intense. His heart had stopped.
Drama-but Not Correct
That's the story as it YVES related
to me by the gentleman from New
Haven. Unfortunately for the pur-
pose Of majestic drama, it doesn't
happen to be altogether accurate.
Exeter did win. The score was SO to
0. Tad Jones was the coach. And
the headmaster did die but in real
lty the sequence of events was
somewhat different. Ny authority is
the aforementioned Mr.. Cupid
Black, now known more sedately IN
downtown business circles as Gin
ton R. Black, insurance tycoon.
I caught up with the old Yale cap
tain in the Wall Street district yes
terday. Singularly, he was getting
ready to go to Exeter to see the an
nual game with Andover which
takes place Saturday. 1t was to be
his first trip back there since he was
a freshman at Yale. He went back
the year following the $50 victory
and hasn't been back since.
Il can see how a story like that
has been woven into fiction with the
years. said Mr.. Black. Right of,
I want to say I didn't kick the field
goal that made the score exactly So
points. The fellow who did most of
the scoring for Exeter that day was
Eddie Casey, the same Casey who
later starred with and coached Har-
ward.
Take Gridmen for Ride
There was a chapel meeting but
it was routine and was held the day
before the game. The headmaster |
made a fine talk and the fellows
Clamored for more. He said he had
something else to say but ne would

Other minor details were speedily

the same way about it, there's not
chance of things goin' haywire."
Ina sat staring into the shadows
ahead Of the car. In the light that
filtered through the trees into the
seat, her expression was indeflnable
You know-how I feel about it,"
she replied, slowly. Its just that

He was held for a moment by the
intense expression in her eyes strain

inside the car, then burst into a short,
spontaneous laugh.
"Is that what's worrying you?" he
cried. He laughed again, a note OF

And yet, withal, he was neither con-
tent nor happy.
Unfortunately, Walter abided in
community where wealthy men
abounded He was one of many, hence
undistinguished. He was respected,
but not admired; was considered
good citizen, but by no means an out
standing one. Unlike the rich man OF
the small town who is lord OF all he
surveys, Walters prominence and i'm
portance ended at the portals OF his
own home.
Just why he was not content Walter
did not know; not until one day at
breakfast. He was glancing through
the front-page columns of the Morn
ing Blade and his eye fell upon the
picture of a prominent citizen. The
article beneath the picture was the
citizens obituary. 1t told of his death,
of the great loss to the community,
of the mans achievements, of his
wealth, of his various activities dur
ing the past years of his life.
Walter Sprague read the article and
knew why he was not content. Bit
terly. he reflected that if the Morning
Blade were to publish his own obituary
there would be no great Splurge of
headlines. There would be no men,
ton of a loss to the community. There
would be no paragraphs concerning
great achievements. 1t would be just
plain, ordinary obituary, such as
would be written about store clerk
or a dog catcher.
walter brooded. Never during his
life of hard work and constant appli-
cation had he achieved publicity.
Never had he become known as
man of prominence beyond the circle
of his business associates. This was
bad, he told himself. He had amassed
a fortune, yet when he died it would
be the end of Walter Sprague forever.
Gradually a plan formed in Walters
mind. He was wealthy. Why not use
that wealth to achieve a name for
himself? Now that he could devote
the time to it, it would be easy. He
would become benefactor, philan-
thropist. He would donate buildings
and promote public enterprises. News
papers would write long articles about
him. Prominent men would consult
him, seek his advice. He would be
talked about. Past records, records
of his early life, of his rise in business,
his success, would be brought to light
and published. And when at last the
end came, newspapers would have
material galore to write about the
man who had devoted a life to society.
They would read his obituary and re-
member. In word, he would have
contributed his bit to posterity.
Walter burned with excitement, as
the plan unfolded itself in his mind.
He set to work at once. The Morning
Blade provided him with information
that the city was planning the erec-
ton Of a memorial library. A drive
was on to raise the necessary funds.
Walter folded the paper, stuck it in
his coat pocket and set out for the
town hall.
That night he picked up the evening
edition Of the Ledger and felt thrill
at sight of the headlines: Memorial
Library Made Possible by Generosity
of Local Citizen. Walter Sprague, re-
tired business man, donates large

The arms about his neck frightened
convulsively, and Ina drew his head
down until her lips found the eager
ones above her. It became very still
in the little car. The tiny clock on
the dashboard licked bravely on. for
four hours, slow but undaunted.
When Paul reappeared at the Tro-
cadero that evening. he bore with him
new record for sustained and un-
authorized leave of absence. The
orchestra had just ended uumber

"In a big way!"
She muttered something and turned
an indignant back on him. Paul
gathered her into his arms and held
her close. She glanced up at him
briefly. and divining the look in his
eyes, tried to hide her face against
his breast. He forestalled this with
hand under her chin and deliber-
ately bent his head. At the last
moment. she closed her eyes and SUBJ
mitted bhndly, her arms slipping up
around his neck. Their lips met.
The girls eyes were shining as she
drew slightly away. She smiled at
Paul, her red mouth an invitation,
close to his own.
"Tell me, now," she whispered.

stance, and yet in itself was prepos-
sessing and dignified looking.
A month later he again made the
front page of the Ledger. This time
he had promoted movement which
resulted in the establishment of a
/ health camp on the outskirts of the
city, at which the children of poor
families could enjoy themselves for
two weeks each Summer. free OF
charge. When the reporters called,
Walter had photographs of himself in
his Napoleon posture ready and
waiting.
Within the next year and the one
that followed, Walter came to be sat-
isfied with the success OF his plan.
He had achieved prominence far
beyond his widest dreams. He had
become one of the city's leading citi-
zens. His name was connected with
practically every movement pertaining
to public benefit. Newspapers called
him up to seek his comment on affairs
of national importance; his opinions
we're frequently quoted editorially.
There was talk of asking him to run
for State Representative from the dis
trict of which his home city held the
largest number of votes.
But Walter was content to let well
enough alone. He had no desire to
mix in politics. He had accomplished
that for which he had set out. Every
newspaper in the city, and in nearby
cities, had his photograph on file;
their libraries contained reams of ma
terial concerning his activities, public
and private, past and present. When
he died, Walter knew there would be
a big front-page spread. Folks would
miss him. The city would consider
itself loser.
And so for a time Walters name
remained out of the papers. And yet
whenever he did become active in any
public movements, they played him
up. The mere mention of his name.
associated with the enterprise then
in progress. was a big thing.
Supremely content, joyously happy.
Walter lived on in his new glory, and
was no longer afraid to die.
The end came suddenly. He was
on his way to the newspaper Office,
with new set of photographs of him
self. As he passed beneath the stag
ing on a new building under construc-
ton, a ladder slipped and a great
load of bricks came crashing to the
earth.
He was not dead when the ambu-
lance arrived and he lived for 10 min
utes after they reached the hospital.
His last thoughts were pleasant. He
was dying at the psychological mo-
ment, he was at the height Of his
glory. The newspapers would play
him up big.
Alas! The very minute that Walter
breathed his last, famous movie ac-
tress shot her husband. The news
swept the country like maelstrom.
Newspapers cleared their front pages
of important stories as If they were
SO much filler" material. It was the
greatest news lead in years. And the
story of Walter Sprague's tragic death
was printed in a 3-inch space on in
side pages of both the Ledger and the
Morning Blade.
