Once, in the big contests in the Gym, I got either into the finals or semi-finals, I forget which; but aside from this the chief part I played was to act as trial horse for some friend or classmate who did have a chance of distinguishing himself in the championship contests. I was fond of horseback-riding, but I took to it slowly and with difficulty, exactly as with boxing.
"It doesn't matter in the least I know such a lot that I'll get through on the finals. Good-by; I'm sorry to have troubled you." And she closed the door and turned thoughtfully homeward. "Did it pay?" asked Priscilla. Patty laughed and murmured softly: "'The King of France rode up the hill with full ten thousand men; The King of France did gain the top, and then rode down again."
Besides, Harcourt is my best friend, and if we both get into the finals it would be beastly and like fighting for money. I wish you hadn't told me. I must end now. With love to Mother and Dick. In haste. Your loving son, Harcourt, grown suddenly rather pale, picked up his sister's letter and read with puzzled brows: DEAR HARRY, When I opened your last letter I found the enclosed.
That was a source of some consolation, and his hope increased that he might at least win a place in the finals. As the pistol was fired, Will darted forward from the line, but in a moment the runners were recalled and Will was penalized a yard for his undue eagerness.
"Now answer me if you can what are the last three events in the ..." He took a quick look at the paper again. "... in the Twenties?" "Chess finals, rifle prone position, and fencing playoffs. Why?"

Tiger protested. "You know you passed your finals. What is this, anyway?" Dal reached into his jacket and handed Tiger a blue paper envelope. "I should have expected it from the first. They sent me this instead of my cuff and collar." Tiger opened the envelope. "From Doctor Tanner," he grunted. "The Black Plague himself. But what is it?" "Read it," Dal said.
I 'as respontsibillaties I do...." A crossing outside a Club! More likely a padded cell in a troopship and hospital until an asylum claimed him. In the finals, "Sword versus Sword Dismounted," Dam had a foeman worthy of his steel.
This would comfortably keep me away during the month of March when my brothers would be studying for their school finals and I would return in time to enjoy the April-May vacations when our cousins from Belgaum, Lucano and Ricardo, would join us for a whole summer season of mangoes, jackfruits and umpteen picnics on the beach.
"I'll have to come in first if I get in the finals." "Yes, but you can do it all right." Wagner slipped back and the seven young men took their places on the line. When the pistol was fired Will darted forward and held the lead all the way, touching the tape first of all. Wagner again was there to receive him and as Will fell into his arms he turned quickly and said. "What was the time?"
When he did, it was only to wonder rather frigidly if this fellow with glasses who played tennis and danced and swam and watched and commented athletically on the Davis Cup finals, sitting between Elinor Piper and Juliet Bellamy whom he had taken to dances off and on ever since he had had his first pair of pumps, could really be he.
