The only way we got across was by springing a delayed pass on them when they were looking for a line-plunge." "Bet you anything you like we could have gone straight through for that touchdown." said Still. "We had the ball on their four yards and it was only third down. Harris or Kendall could have torn that four yards off easily." "That's your opinion," replied Jack drily.
The cadet stood up, noticed the time on the astral chronometer, and turned to face Captain Strong, rising from the chair beside him. "Polaris made touchdown, planet Venus, at exactly 1543, sir," he said and saluted crisply. Strong returned the salute. "Good work, Corbett," he said. "You handled her as though she was nothing more than a baby carriage!"
And unless I miss my guess they were in it, or around it, when we went through like a fellow carrying the football over the line for a touchdown." "In there when the tank broke open things?" "I think so. I didn't see them before, but they certainly ran out as we started away." "This has got to be looked into!" decided Tom. "Come on, Ned! It may be more of that spy business!"
McNair was of large frame and fleet of foot. He was especially clever in handling and passing the ball, which in those days was more of an art than at present. It was not unusual for the ball to be passed from player to player after a scrimmage until a touchdown or a field goal was made. "Walter Camp was one of McNair's Yale adversaries.

Seated in the pilot's chair on the control deck of the rocket cruiser Polaris, Major Connel bellowed the order into the intercom as he scanned the many dials on the huge control board. "One minute to touchdown, sir," reported Tom over the intercom from the radar bridge of the Polaris. "One minute to touchdown," repeated Connel. "Right!"
"Fellows, nothing on earth will save us but a touchdown and a kick," called Douglass desperately, when he got his West Point men aside. "That will tie the score. It's our best chance to-day." "Unless, suh," gravely observed Anstey, "We can follow that by driving the midshipmen into a safety."
It seemed impossible to offer effective resistance to the heavy college men now. Gridley hearts sank from sheer weight. Gridley had met more than its match! It was almost a touchdown for Cobber when Ben Badger rallied his men enough to fight the college men back some twenty-odd yards. But then the tide turned once more, and Cobber began to fight its way back to the High School goal line.
While I was still walking down the field, in order to pass all the West Point men, before making my dash for a certain touchdown, it struck Bucky Vail that I was right, and he yelled out at the top of his voice. 'The ball is not dead. It is free. Whereupon the West Point men started after me.
There was a brief pause, as if everything had stopped and they were held still by a giant hand, and then, suddenly, a rocking motion, a slight bump and rumble. Tom knew they were down. "Touchdown!" he yelled at the top of his voice. "Touchdown! We made it we made it!"
