"Of course you are," went on Leslie imperturbably. "Understand, I didn't want the rest of the gang here tonight, and that's that. What I started out to say when Nat and Joan and Margaret and you butted in, one by one, was this: We must bestir ourselves and make a fuss over the freshies. This year's freshman class is, I'm told, the largest entering class for ten years.
The Saturday following the disastrous game between freshmen and juniors saw the freshmen actually tie their score with the sophs. According to fans it was "one beautiful game" and the freshies left the floor vastly inspirited after their defeat of the previous week. Meanwhile the sophomores calmly awaited the junior challenge.
No; I understand that you wouldn't, under the circumstances," Jerry added quickly, as Miss Remson made a hasty gesture of dissent. "I wouldn't either, if I were you." "I believe there is more to this than appears on the surface," Marjorie gave steady opinion. "We hardly know President Matthews, as we were merely freshies last year. Still he seems to be such a fine man.
"Stuck on him!" he cried. "Well, not any! You fellows ought to know that! Stuck on him! That gives me pains!" "Well, I couldn't see what ailed you unless you were." "It is because I am not stuck on him that I am so anxious to beat him, as you fellows ought to be able to see." "Oh, that's it? Excuse me! Well, now, how is he going to make a lot of lubberly freshies beat us?"
That team must have been crazy to challenge you. They played well, for them. Against your five good night! A whitewash! Think of it!" "They deserved it." Marjorie's eyes lost their smiling light. The curves of her red lips straightened a trifle. "We paid them for ragging the freshies. They have had two hard defeats inside of two weeks. They ought to retire on them.
"But just the same," said Nancy's roommate, "you stand a good chance in the straightaway races and in the two-mile. Don't you lose courage, Nance. I've watched you and I say that the freshies can afford to cheer for you, just as the sophs are rooting for Judy." So Nancy went down to the ice that evening very much encouraged and more excited than she had ever been since coming to Pinewood Hall.
How we do ramble from the subject. Let us be turning back to our freshies' good works." "Muriel stopped at that basket ball affair last winter," prompted Katherine. "I'll mention it before Lucy has a chance. She isn't the only one who can keep tab on things." "I see I shall have to keep you in the background." Lucy bent a severe eye on Katherine. "You are out to steal my glory."
Marjorie and Jerry coming cheerily in upon her soon after classes, she confided to them the news of Leslie's call. "The idea," sniffed Jerry. "Wish I had been here. I'd have told Miss Bully Cairns where she gets off at. How does she know but that President Matthews knows about it already? There were several freshies in her car. No doubt they were all her sort or they wouldn't have been with her.
You can always scare the other fellows off that way; the sky is the limit and you're bound to get your money back. So you should Ish ka bibble. "Now you two young freshies go back to your desks and try to learn humility. Thus endeth the first lesson, my children." Matt Peasley came close to Cappy and put his big arm round the little old man. "Cappy," he whispered, "please don't retire!"
I believe now what I heard about the Jane Alien crowd. A lot of goody goodies, too stuck up to bother with country girls." Jane jumped from her seat and gasped at an interruption but did not succeed in sustaining it. "But I've got friends around here who know the ropes. They are not freshies either, so don't bother about me, Miss Allen.
