They were not seasoned veterans like most of the Marshall fellows; and in such a long and bitterly fought battle on the gridiron experience counts in the last round. And yet they were still pushing ahead. It was wonderful, grand!
Her Covington is the man they used to give nine long Harvards for. I never heard that in front of my name. I was a grind a "greasy grind," they used to call me. It did n't hurt, for I smiled in rather a superior sort of way at the men I thought were wasting their energy on the gridiron. But, after all, you fellows got something out of it that the rest of us did n't get.
He's playing better. I'm sorry he and Sam are on the outs. I'm always afraid of a clash." "Yes, that's likely. See him go! Say! if he'll play that way Saturday we'll wipe up the gridiron with Holwell." "Let's hope so!" exclaimed the captain. Indeed, Tom was playing as he had seldom played before. And Sam was passing the ball to him accurately. There was not a fumble.
Christie gained the center of the gridiron and advanced a yard toward the opponent's goal ere the St. Eustace right half-back reached him. Then there was a quick line-up, and Joel took up his position for a kick. "Well done, Whipple!" cried Remsen and Blair in a breath. "But the time!" muttered Remsen, "does he know " "One minute to play!" came the ominous announcement.
Lawrence, and I took in the ship between the reefs of the bay, where they run like a gridiron, and I laugh when I swing the ship all ver' quick to the right, after we pass the reefs, and make a curve round something. The captain pull me up and ask why. But I never tell him that. I not know why I never tell him.
As it was seen to drop squarely over the bar between the posts the crowd broke into frenzied shouts. Chester had won by a single point! That last kick for goal after Jack had saved the day by his touchdown, had done the business; and the happy visitors could go back home feeling they had a reason to be proud of the scrappy eleven that represented their town on the gridiron.
"'Then would you lind me the loan of a gridiron! says I, 'and you'll obleege me.
One tracing showed the entire irrigation scheme from the dam on the Pinas to the tips of the laterals branching out in a gridiron over the land. There were other tracings, too, on a larger scale and of successive sections, ready to be taken to Kennard in order to make blueprints. "Town for us to-morrow, Dave," Lee exclaimed one day, as he rolled and tied his maps in a waterproof canvas.
Instead of the long oak table and the wassail bowl, there stood near the fire a small round table, covered with a snow white cloth, upon which shone in unrivalled brightness a very handsome tea equipage the hissing kettle on one hob was vis a vis'd by a gridiron with three newly taken trout, frying under the reverential care of Father Malachi himself a heap of eggs ranged like shot in an ordnance yard, stood in the middled of the table, while a formidable pile of buttered toast browned before the grate the morning papers were airing upon the hearth every thing bespoke that attention to comfort and enjoyment one likes to discover in the house where chance may have domesticated him for a day or two.
The limp rasher hung down between the bars of the gridiron like a cat in a child's arms; but there was nothing in similes, unless She uttered them. He looked at the daylight shadows of a yellow hue, dancing with the firelight shadows in blue on the whitewashed chimney corner, but there was nothing in shadows.
