"Yes; they tried to address some of our girl friends, whom they didn't know and we objected to their insolence." "That was what made the rah-rah boys sore," went on the bell-boy. "I heard them talking about it before I left them. It seems, too, that the manager sent the head waiter to stop their nonsense in the dining room to-night.
He also learned something else which surprised him greatly: that rather than being an aid to his securing employment, his college education was a drawback, several men telling him bluntly that they had no vacancies for rah-rah boys. At the end of the second week Jimmy had moved from his hotel to a still less expensive one, and a week later to a cheap boarding-house on the north side.
Don't mix up in any trouble with the guests." "We'll soon be at the spot where I left the bunch," said Gerard, a few moments later. Over a rise of ground the bell-boy led Dick & Co. Then he pointed to a little grove of chestnut trees. "There is the rah-rah crowd," he whispered.
We would have to play Kiowa with a bunch of rah-rah boys who had never done anything more violent than break a cane on a grandstand seat over a touchdown. The chaps who were butchered to make a Roman holiday didn't have anything at all on us.
"I don't care whether he's a rah-rah boy or not," said Schnitzel, "I know that's what he did when he was up the Orinoco after orchids, and if the tribe had ever caught him they'd have crucified him. And I know this, too: he made forty thousand dollars out of the Nitrate Company on a ten-thousand-dollar job. And I know it, because he beefed to me about it himself, because it wasn't big enough."
Charlie's tried to range-herd his cattle so he and Peter can gather them alone; and he offered to look after mine, too, so I won't have so much riding to do this hot weather. He's awfully nice, Ward, really. I don't care if he is a rah-rah boy. And he isn't a bit in love with me." "Is it possible," grinned Ward, "that any human man can come out West and not fall in love with the Prairie Flower "
Bunches of rah-rah boys wanting to cross, and Canadians wanting to get back to England, and Jews beating it to Poland to sling bombs at the Czar, I guess. And lemme tell you, them Jews is all right. They're willing to pay for a man's time and trouble in getting 'em fixed up, and so " With dignity Mr. William Wrenn stated, "Of course I'll be glad to uh make it worth your while."
A whisper in Berlin was enough to set a new wave of passion in motion, which spread to the trenches east and west. Something like the team-work of the "rah-rah" of college athletics was applied to the nation.
The difficulties are commented on by the people in the audience as rah-rah boys on the side lines comment on hurdles cleared or knocked over by the men running in college field-day. The sudden cut-backs into side branches of the story are but hurdles also, not plot complications in the stage sense. This is as it should be. The pursuit progresses without St.
The manager, at first, the next morning, said nothing whatever to the rah-rah youths. But, at about ten o'clock a constable appeared and gathered in all of them on a charge of disturbing the peace. Dick & Co. were not even asked to go the justice's court. The hotel manager and bell-boy were on hand, but the crest-fallen lot of rah-rah youths all pleaded guilty.
