They were asked to join the college basketball team, but declined, and took regular gymnasium exercise instead. Much to their surprise, Dudd Flockley was put on the team. "I don't think that dude will make good," said Tom, and he was right.
"Well, I'll fix it so those girls hear all about this affair." "Good!" cried Larkspur. "That will be the bitterest dose of all." "Say," put in Dudd Flockley nervously, "you don't suppose there is any danger of our being found out?" "Not the slightest," answered Koswell. "I saw to it that all our tracks were covered." "But that fellow Parwick? Are you certain he can be trusted?" "Yes.
"Not so much fun when you are hazed yourself, is it?" asked Sam coolly. "We'll give it to 'em yet," put in Bart Larkspur. "Lots of time between now and the closing of the term." And then he and Koswell ran off to join Dudd Flockley. The three went to their rooms and cleaned up as best they could, and then took a walk down the road in the direction of Rushville.
There is Dudd Flockley!" exclaimed Sam presently, and pointed to the dudish student, who was crossing the street behind the depot. "Maybe he came down to meet somebody, too," said Tom. "More than likely there will be quite a bunch of girls bound for the seminary." At last the train rolled in, and the three Rovers strained their eyes to catch the first sight of their friends.
Her husband having been created a baron by the title of Baron Ward of Birmingham, and Frances becoming Baroness of Dudley in her own right on the demise of her father, the baronies of Dudley and Ward thus became united in their eldest son Edward in the year 1697. Patent No. 117, Old Series, granted in 1638, to Sir George Horsey, David Ramsey, Roger Foulke, and Dudd Dudley.
Of course they fought desperately to push the freshmen back, but they were outnumbered, as already told. "Now, then, every fellow who will promise not to take part in the necktie rush Monday will be allowed to go free," said Dick loudly. "The others must take their ducking in the water and mud." "Let me go!" roared Dudd Flockley. "I'm not going to have this suit ruined!"
"Yes, I know, Mr. Flockley, but " "Oh, don't call me Mr. Flockley. Call me Dudd." "Yes, and please don't call me Mr. Koswell," broke in another masculine voice. "Jerry is good enough for me every time." "But you must go now, you really must!" said the girl. "We'll go if you'll say good-by in the right kind of a way, eh, Dudd?" said the person called Jerry Koswell.
"Come up to the room and I'll tell you," answered Larkspur, and then the two hurried off and, joined by Dudd Flockley, hatched out a scheme to get the Rovers into dire trouble with the college authorities. They had a number of preparations to make, and paid a hurried visit to Ashton and several other places, Flockley hiring a runabout for that purpose.
"I'll keep my mouth shut right enough," answered Dudd, "but what's in the wind?" "I'm going to pay off Professor Sharp for some of his meanness and pay off Tom Rover at the same time." "Give me a map of the proceedings. I'm too tired to guess riddles, Jerry." "Well, you know how Sharp called me down to-day in English?" "Sure!"
I hope he catches it well Rover, I mean," answered Dudd Flockley. Saturday was more or less of a holiday at Brill, and the three Rover boys planned to go to town. Incidentally, they wished to learn if Dora Stanhope and the Laning girls had as yet arrived at Hope Seminary. They had received no letters from the girls since coming to Brill, and were growing anxious.
