"I am not afraid of them." "Oh, neither am I, Tom." "Well race you to Rock Island and back," said Koswell, after consulting Larkspur. "All right," answered Dick. "Want to bet on the result?" questioned Koswell. He was usually willing to bet on anything. "We don't bet," answered Tom. "And we wouldn't with you, if we did," added Dick.
"A fight! a fight!" came from the crowd, and soon Tom and Koswell were surrounded by a number of students and some outsiders. The blow from the bully angered Tom greatly, and skating forward he made a pass at Koswell. But the latter ducked, and then came back at Tom with a blow that sent the fun-loving Rover into several students standing by.
"Yes; but she isn't a girl, she's a woman, and not particularly good-looking at that," answered Jerry Koswell. "Well, Sharp isn't so very handsome," answered Larkspur. "His nose is as sharp as his name." "I suppose Rover will wonder how somebody got hold of that case of pencils and crayons," remarked Flockley. "If he "
"I can row any time, but I can't always ride in a motor boat." "Same here," said Sam. A number of craft were on the river, including one containing Jerry Koswell and Bart Larkspur. Koswell scowled as he saw Tom and Dick rowing near by. "We'll give 'em a shaking up," he said to his crony, and turned their rowboat so that it bumped fairly and squarely into the craft manned by Tom and Dick.
"Did you see that fine athletic field beyond the campus?" returned Sam. "That means baseball and football galore." Having walked around the outside of the various buildings the Rover boys made their way to the highway to watch for the coming of Tom. Hardly had they reached the road when they saw a crowd of six students approaching. Among the number were Dudd Flockley and Jerry Koswell.
"See here, you chaps," said Flockley. "What are your names?" "If you want to know so bad, my name is Dick Rover and this is my brother Sam." "And who was the other fellow?" asked Koswell. "My brother Tom." "Three brothers, eh, and named Rover!" growled Dudd Flockley. "All right, I'll remember that, and I'll remember how you treated us up to the Sanderson place."
"Break away, both of you!" ordered Dick. "We'll see into this." Tom let go, but Koswell continued to hold fast. Seeing this, Dick forced the two apart and both scrambled up. "See here, this isn't your fight!" said Larkspur to Dick. "It will be yours if you don't shut up!" answered Dick, so sharply that Larkspur shrunk back in alarm. "I didn't bite him!" grumbled Koswell.
Then Koswell had threatened, if this was done, that he would have Parwick arrested for robbing his former employer, William Schlemp. Then had come blows, and in the midst of this Charter had stepped forward and confronted the evildoers. "We have seen and heard all," he had said sternly. "I am a witness, and so are these young ladies.
"Last night's affair will make Flockley and Koswell more sour than ever, and Larkspur is evidently their tool, and willing to do anything they wish done." After chapel the Rovers were assigned to their various classes and given their text-books. It was announced that no regular classes would be called until the following Monday morning.
He did not care to add that when he went to see a young lady it was always Dora Stanhope, and that Tom and Sam called only on Nellie and Grace Laning. "I've been expecting you," said the girl with a pretty pout. "Have Dudd Flockley and Jerry Koswell been there since?" "Yes, both of them came once, and Flockley came after that, but I refused to see them. Mr.
