The easiest point of attack will be the boys themselves. It is absolutely necessary to get them out of the game some way or other I don't care what! Radwin, you're fertile enough in ideas, and reckless enough in deeds. This is to be your task put the Pollard boats and those submarine boys wholly out of the running! First of all, we'll get acquainted with them. Come along!"
Radwin had gone to the hotel dining room, to find that the last diners had departed, leaving only a few waiters who were arranging tables. "No one here," murmured Radwin "Then we'll look through the billiard room, writing room and other places. Young Somers must be with the party somewhere." Twenty minutes or more they spent in looking through the various public parts of the big hotel.
"I can't answer any of these telegrams," he muttered, tearing up the offending messages. "Oh, why did Radwin have to take wings at the very time when I need him most! Fred Radwin, with his cool nerve, his steely eyes and his glib, lying tongue, would have been ready with answers for all these questions. But I can't do it. I'll need a strait-jacket, if these telegrams continue to arrive!"
He accompanied them outside, though, a few moments later, he excused himself, saying that he had to go to the nearest drugstore to write a short letter and post it. "What do you think of Radwin?" Hal asked. "Why, I guess he's a good deal the sort of fellow that Rhinds wants," Captain Jack answered, slowly. "Don't you like Rhinds?" demanded Eph.
From down the street came the sound of flying feet. Then, just as suddenly the speed lessened. "I'll wait until I get help, and I'll grab this pair," muttered Captain Jack. "The police chief will be delighted at having a good, close look at Fred Radwin!" At that moment loud yells and coarse cries broke from the eight or ten young men down the street. Then fist-blows sounded.
"I reckon taking things easily and restfully will suit us as well as anything," smiled Jack. "That is, unless you have some plan you particularly wish to suggest." "Well," continued Radwin, thoughtfully, "the town is rather full of sailors, just at present, and they're making the nights lively in some sections.
Then he'll put himself in your way when there are witnesses around." "Thank you, Hal," nodded Jack Benson, his voice unusually quiet. "You've given me a good, big hint. I won't forget it. Until the tests are all over Radwin may parade before me, and mock at me, if he wants. But afterward !"
Radwin drew back before the darkening, menacing glare in the eyes of the young submarine captain. Hal, however, turned white though from a cause that few would have guessed. "Hold on, Benson! One moment " protested Fred Radwin. "Oh, get out of my sight, this instant," quivered Jack, taking another step toward his enemy.
"If our youngsters are not on one of our boats, then we've got to lose the speed race to-day. None of us can handle the boats the way they do." "Oh, you'll find the boys all right on one of the boats," asserted Fred Radwin, confidently. The rivals went down to the water front together. It was well after nine o'clock when they entered a shore boat. "We'll go out to your craft, first," proposed Mr.
And the reason is more than mere business rivalry, too." Lieutenant Danvers knew nothing whatever of the dastardly attempts against the Pollard crowd that Rhinds and Radwin had engineered. It was not a time, however, in which to waste precious moments looking back at the more tardy rival boat. Jack wheeled, bracing himself against the conning tower.
