A cheer rolled from the crowd when
the first Tiger came into view; it be-
came thunderclap as Cyclone skated
out on the ice.
General scowled. Damn it, used

again. All have to do is plug one into

teen playing minutes, no one did.
Then, with only three minutes left,
the goal came. 1t might've been Gen

But there was just one play. And it
was Cyclones. General didn't hesi-

The sports page was what he'd ex-

lures of Cyclone in uniform, in street
clothes. The play-by-play account
was given over mainly to the blond
right winger And buried way down
in the text, where nobody would see
it, was a line: THE old veteran
General Grant, was credited with
three assists"
General pushed the paper angrily
aside. Well, he'd asked for it. Damn
it, Sam had been right. Smart hockey
or not, he should've scored. His
thoughts were brittle. The play-off
series was now tied, with the deciding
game tomorrow night That left one
more chance to show the kid up -
if he could make himself do it.
AS HE crossed the lobby toward the
elevators, he saw girl start up from
one of the chairs and hurry to meet
him. He recognized her as the same
brown-eyed youngster who'd stopped
him the night before.

The dressing room was packed with
players, with reporters, with camera
men. The rookie had pulled the hat
trick; had scored three times in one
game. The flash bulbs puffed their
light. The reporters had the kid cor
nered and threw questions at him.
GENERAL tugged off his jersey and
shoulder pads. He dropped them on
the pile of clothes at his feet and his
strength seemed to go with them. He
took a shower and dressed. His knee
was hurting terribly. He wanted more
than anything to get to bed.
He was one OF the first to leave,
slipping out without saying anything
to Sam. The corridor that led to the
street was dark, and he didn't see the
girl until she was right in front of him.
She said, timidly, Excuse me, but

a verdict. He was not only through
for the game but if he played any
more that night he might be through

back to the rink. General stayed flat
on his back, his teeth biting into his
