"A big part of this crowd is out to see you and Danny boy," Hepson remarked to Darrin. "Haven't they anything better to do with their time, then?" laughed Dave. "Great Scott, man! Every one of the spectators wants to see the Navy beat the Army this year." "But these spectators are a heap cheered up by what they've heard about you and Dalzell."
His kick didn't land; he hadn't intended that it should, but Dave's surprised recoil gave the other the chance that he really wanted. Both of Jetson's fists struck on Dave's nose, drawing a flood of the crimson. "You coward! You cur!" gasped amazed Dalzell. "Silence, all!" ordered Hepson, speaking by virtue of being a first classman.
Hepson," said coach aside, in the interval that followed, "you have done well, I think, to place two such men as Darrin and Dalzell on the provisional team." "I am glad you think so, sir," replied the Navy football captain, "for that is the way it strikes me." "If you keep them at the left flank you'll have something like dynamite there," smiled coach. "Mr.
It isn't even necessary to get into togs. We can send a note to the referee, and he can award the game to Hanniston." "Fine!" broke in Hepson scornfully. "However, I guess we aren't going to have any cinch to-day," joined in Midshipman Waite, from another table. "I have word from outside, by the way." "What word?"
"You know, when the townspeople in Annapolis think they have a really good thing on us, they cover the money of visitors in any wagers on the games." "Then here's hoping that the Annapolis townspeople win a lot to-day," laughed Midshipman Hepson.
"Very good, sir; thank you, sir," replied the unmovable Hepson. "And remember that it is now very close to the time for study call," continued the O.C. "Yes, sir; thank you, sir. We are just parting to our various quarters, sir." "Good evening, gentlemen." "Good evening, sir." Lieutenant Cotton passed on down the corridor, and the midshipmen eased themselves from the rigid position of attention.
Then talk of a mere accident might lead to questions as to the nature of the accident." "True," nodded Hepson. "Then get back to your room. Get out clean linen and get into it. While you're doing that I'll negotiate the loan of a dress coat that will fit. Then you can go to the O. C., after you've changed the telltale linen." This course, accordingly, was followed.
But, anyway, I suppose Darrin has turned the coach and Hepson against me. I owe Darrin for that one!" Five minutes later another player of the second eleven was retired with an injured wrist. "Howard!" called the coach briskly. "Excused for to-day, sir," reported another player. "Any one but me!" growled Jetson. "Jetson!" sounded the head coach's heavy voice. Midshipman Jetson started.
"Dalzell and I can stand hard work and pounding whenever you get ready to put it on us," Dave announced to Hepson. "Don't try to spare us any. Both of us would sooner be carried away on stretchers than see the Navy lose its first game to a minor college." The game was resumed. For ten minutes the Navy played mainly on the defensive.
That's the way we like to hear you talk," glowed Hepson. "And I'll bottle up Holmes and put the stopper in," promised Dan with solemn modesty. Again two of the men made a rush for him to quiet him. "It may be only a rumor that Prescott and Holmes are on the Army eleven," spoke up another midshipman.
