The pavilion and the parts about the pavilion rails were always packed on the last day of a final house-match, and even in normal circumstances there was apt to be a little sparring between the juniors of the two houses which had been playing for the cup. In the present case, therefore, it was not surprising that Kay's fags took the defeat badly.
Later I" she hesitated "I saw him in a place called Feinheimer's. He was a waiter. Then he was a sparring partner, I think they call it, for a prizefighter. Some of my friends took me to a gymnasium to see the fighter training, and I recognized this man. "I saw him again when he was driving a milk-wagon. He delivered milk at a friend's house where I chanced to be.
"Where you get that bird?" she demanded of Mrs. McCutcheon, faintly. "Oh, that is Mr. Riis's bird," said that lady, sparring for time; "a friend gave it to him " "Where you take him?" Mrs. Ben Wah gasped, her hand pressed against her feeble old heart. Her friend saw, and gave right up. "I am not going to take it anywhere," she said. "I brought it for you.
Ditto suddenly lost all conscious interest in the proceedings. He retired from the ring after this with a permanent lump on the point of his jaw and a profound conviction that the Lord had made a mistake and drowned the wrong crowd that time at the Red Sea. He fitted up a gymnasium in the old plow factory and gave instructions in sparring to the youth of the town.
As he entered the stuffy room in which two big fellows, stripped to the waist, were sparring, a stout, low-browed man sitting in a back-tilted chair against one wall looked up inquiringly. Billy crossed over to him, with outstretched hand. "Howdy, Professor!" he said. "Yeh got me, kid," replied Professor Cassidy, taking the proffered hand.
I didn't need the advice and warning of sundry friends to foresee that we shouldn't get through six months of close companionship without a certain amount of pecking and sparring, so I thought the best thing was to localise and sterilise it in one process.
The talk's good, but in plays the talk mustn't take the audience off the point, no matter how good it is. See! You don't want long speeches: you want short ones. The talk ought to be like a couple of chaps sparring ... only not too much fancy work. I've seen a lot of boxing in my time.
The boy, who had been sparring with a kitten that had strayed into the shack the day before, rose abruptly. "You say you won't write to your sister until you've made good?" "It isn't just that," stammered Donald, changing color. "I I don't dare. She'd beg me to come back " Brian nodded. "Yes," he said. "I know the feeling." "And I won't go back!" flung out Donald passionately. "I won't go back.
This man frequently addressed assemblies of the people and urged them to transfer the command to another general, since "Marcellus," he said, "after a little sparring with the enemy had gone to the hot baths to refresh himself as if after a gymnastic contest."
Now, what do you think of that! Why, your father was the best sportsman I ever met. Square as they make 'em. Not a kink anywhere in his make-up. He used to come to the bouts in his plug hat and dress suit; always had a seat by the ring. I could hear him tap with his cane when there happened to be a bit of pretty sparring. He was no slouch himself when it came to putting on the mitts.
