In the gymnasium he found Delight, captaining a basket-ball team. In her knickers and middy blouse she looked like a little girl, and he stood watching her as, flushed and excited, she ran round the long room.
Who the devil put 'em up to captaining you eh? Was it that minx Dorothy? Dammy, I took it that the old Colonel had come to plague me from his grave your father, sir! And a cursed fine fellow, if he was second cousin to a Varick, which he could not help, not he! though I've heard him damn his luck to my very face, sir! Yes, sir, under my very nose!"
Currie'll be captaining him for his towmond voyage o' piratin'. He be leukin' for ye noo, John Paul." With that some of the men on the thwarts, perceiving that matters were likely to go ill with the captain, began to chaff with their friends above.

'This, thought Norris, 'is Fame. This is where I spread myself. I must be in this at any price. He showed the letter to Baker. 'What a pity, said Baker. 'What's a pity?
She could see him, bearded and with gold rings in his ears and the lustrousness of fever in his eyes, captaining with oaths and the rattle of arms a boat rowed by naked Indians along a yellow waterway between green cliffs of foliage. Yes, she could not imagine him consulting any map that was not gay with painted figures and long scrolls.
It was, in part, as follows: "I played at Brown in '94, '95, '96 and '97, captaining the team in my last year. Gammons and I played in the backfield together. He was unquestionably a great runner with the ball; one of the hardest men to hurt, I think, I ever saw.
