Conceivably, Germany may still be able to forge a new thunderbolt, to pass to the offensive again, and win the war; conceivably she can hold her present lines until the fury of the Allies abates and losses and economic strain impose a drawn battle and a peace without victory for any contestant.

At the second shot, or as soon after as you wish, you may dive and begin the race.

Each contestant singled out his enemy, and made slowly for him with eyes fixed and weapon ready, regardless of the movements of his mates.
The contest is rapidly becoming the blue ribbon championship event in America for track athletes.

The world's best amateur record is taken as a basis and 1,000 points are allowed for it. The same method is used in all the events.
All parties to the suit were promptly on hand, and amid a silence almost oppressive, proponent and contestant, with their counsel and witnesses, passed down the long aisle to their respective places.
