ARDLY had Arnold picked up his tray and taken his place in the line which hemmed the chromium - plated rail than a gray-hairec alumnus spotted him. He had seen him play on the freshman team the year before and was shocked to find that he didn’t go out for the varsity when the Fall rolled around. Immediately he buzzed it around the room that that was Arnold, the freshman pilot of a year ago, who stubbornly refused to try for the varsity. The alumni, particularly the older ones, seized on the news as a choice and important morsel of timely col- lege gossip. They turned around and stared at him, although until now he ‘was oblivious to it all. When Chuck sat down he noticed that the two men and the lady sit- ting at his table looked him over rather circumspectly. He paid little attention to them at first, but as he cut into his roast beef he became poignantly conscious of the fact that for some unknown reason he was the center of attention. Not easily rattled and being stub- born by nature, he decided to be un- concerned about it. He suspected now that it was the foot ball loving element that was looking him over and he felt like standing up and telling them ell to go plumb to hell. He liked Colburn as much as any man there, he thought to himself, and yet because he wouldn’t subject himself to the brow- beating and bullying tyranny of a coach who smacked of the old school he was regarded as something of a | disloyal curiosity. For a minute he felt almost certain | that there was something to what | Halstead had said in his editorial columns after all. and turmoil, this excitement and psalm singing in the name of the gridiron sport when a game of golf or a game of tennis were probably just as enjoyable and maybe more\ exhilarating? | Just then Chuck overhead a man at the next table say: “Bum Baxter? Do | I remember him. Why, I roomed with that bozo. And when you say he could tackle you speak the truth. Why, believe it or not, I saw him hit the | tackling dummy one afternoon in| practice and knock it clear up and | over the cross bar. He sure could lay | ’em out, though, couldn’t he, Stan? ‘Too bad he’s gone, Crashed, you know, at Pensacola.” No, foot ball was different some- how. He had to admit that.” It had something in it that stirred one’s| Sort of wound itself | deeper feelings. around the heart of a man. Made him play more fervently than any other sport. Made him give more of him- self in every play. But then, he rea- soned, what was the use of thinking about it. He could never learn to take McBrair’s talk. Bailey oval was decked with flags and pennants which fluttered fetch- ingly in the sunlight of a clear Au- tumn afternoon. The crowd began pouring into the stands long before game time. From the surrounding , towns and villages the fans drove to the oval in cars, carriages and sta- tion wagons. A portion of the east stands was reserved for the alumni and alumnae of Colburn. The stu- dents’ sections flanked the home- comers on both sides and the west stand was given over to Sanford root- ers and strangers. Half hour before the game the Sanford students arrived on special trains, and paraded to the stadium. Led by the college band, which was clad in colorful uniforms of blue, trimmed with white, they marched clear around the field, yelling and cheering earty 1/ price!

Hardly had they seated themselves thrn the Colburn students marched into the stadium thr.ugh the south portal. A tremendous shout of joy went up from the lumni as they saw the crimsor banner of Colburn wav- ing aloft at the head of the column. They themselves had once marched through that portal, and behind that same banner, and it seemed good to see their successors carryin, on the old traditions. To the lively tunes of martial music and college airs, the Colburn students swung through their paces. Halstead's shattering blast was tem- porarily forgotten amid the excite- ment and enthusiasm of the coming struggle. The line of marchers stopped in front of the Sanford cheering section, and gave their rival a hearty cheer. The Sanford cheer leader bounded to his feet and returned .the compliment. ;i When the parade reached the sec- tion occupled by the home-comers, the drum major lifted h.s baton high in the air, whirled it around at a dazzling speed, and suddenly brought it down with a vigorous gesture of finality. The marchers stopped. With- ¢t signal or announcement they burst into song.

C, about the stadiwn, the homecomers rese and joined in the song. As the last words of e college’s favorite song died out across the field, the blue-jerseyed warriors of Sanford raced gallantly from under the west stand. Sanford’s Jtudents went wild with joy at the sight of their un- beaten team lining up snappily on the fleld. With precise, fast, and aggressive move.aents, Sanford’s wcll-groomed eleven moved down the fleld with startling speed and finesse. As a unit the blue-clad stalwarts possessed plenty of confidence snd poise. Their white helmets glistened in the high sun, and the white band across their shoulders and down the outside of their sleeves gave them individually the appearance of lithe power. A small but powerful cannon boomed the advent of the Colburn eleven. Coach McBrair had issued new jerseys for this, the most im- portant game of the year and the team looked unusually ne: and well- groomed as it stepped out on the cross-barred turf in its crimson and tan outfit. The players pranced up and down like race horses chafing at the bar- fer. They were rarin’ to- go. While the varsity team, piloted by Stevens, went through a mock signal drill, the substitutes turned somersaults and handsprings in an attempt to limber up. Others passed the ball around or punted the pigskir. down the field, while still others just sat on the bench and threw bi. crimson blankets around them. Chuck, sitting just on the outer fringe of Colburn students, looked the squad over to see if he could find Blake. Somehow Blake interested him now more than ever before.

He was tossing forward passes to several substitute backs and Chuck concluded by the ease with which he tossed the ball long he had plenty of po rangy arms. The thought that pos- sibly Blake packed a punch like a mule didn’t bother Arnold. He had been 1 good boxer himself once, and felt thet he could still takc care of himself. ‘The official's whistle blew and Captain Rogers weni to the center of the fleld to meet Captain Harey of Sanford. They shook hands and when the official ossed a coin high in the air Rogers nodded to Harey to call the toss. The latter said “heads,” and heads it was. He chose to defend the south goal in order to have the sun at his Lack. Rogers, having the option of receiving or kickine off, elected to receive. ‘The teams lined up. The long line of blue-clad Sanford players moved forward. Capt. Harey lifted the ball off the ground beautifully. It sailed end over end into Herb Ondike's bear- like arms. He tried to clutch it to him, but it bounced off his chest and rolled along the ground. Joe Minton, alert left guard on Colburn’s eleven, dropped on the ball. The Sanford crowd was joyous and wild with emotion. The Colburn sup- porters were speechless with amaze- ment. Not a minute played as yet, and Colburn with its back to the wall. A big, heavy voice boomed out not far from where Chuck was sitting: “Why doesn’t that ass McBrair teach his men how to take hold of that ball?” Something strangely familiar in the ring of that voice made Chuck listen. ‘The man didn’t speak again for some time, so Chuck forgot about it.

Col- burn fans breathed a sigh of relief. Banford’s quarterback started a running offensive. First he cracked the left flank, then the right. On third down, with four yards to go, he called a dive-tackle play that netted a first down on Colburn's 44-yard line. The Sanford stands were a seething mass of half-crazed humans. They were crying and begging for another first down. The Saniord pilot didn't disappoint them. With & beau- tiful cross-buck aimed right inside of Capt. Rogers, a Blue back knifed through and broke away for a run. He side-stepped and dodged his way to the 22-yard line before Stevens brought him down with one of those heaven-help-us tackles. Had he missed him, it would have been & touchdown for Sanford. The Crimson line braced, and two plunges of the Sanford fullback re- sulted in no gain. A bullet pass sud- denly came out of the Sanford back- fleld, but Abe Epstein, & curly-haired Jewish boy, who did a swell job on the wing for Colburn, slipped through and messed up the pass before it got beyond the line of scrimmage. Forced to kick on fourth down, the Sanford fleld gen- eral decided to try s place-kick. He stood back about 10 yards from his center, marked a spot on the ground where he intended to set the ball, called his best kicker out of the line and barked the signals. Cooly and deftly he balanced the ball on the ground while the kicker stepped up and lifted it cleanly between the up- rights. Ondike, Colburn’s right tackle, had rushed in to try to block the kick and hurled himself at the ball. He landed squarely on top of the little pilot, and Sanford rooters set up a howl of protest at such tactics. (To be continued.) Discouraged looking for under- OVEMBER 17, 1935—PART TWO. HERDS MADE TASTY BY BARBECUE KING Texan Officiates Only When There Are Many to Feed. AMARILLO, Tex. (#).—John Snider is a picnic barbecuer—he spits cattle by the herd, chickens by the flock, and once was imported by Washing- ton epicures to make 20 cattle highly edible. They call him the “Barbecue King of the Panhandle,” and he serves only at big gatherings. At Washington, where he served the National Press Club, Snider prepared beef for such “big-wigs” as Presi- dent Hoover, Vice President Curtis, Speaker Garner, Gov. Ritchie, Jesse Jones and a number of others. “Those officlals are like Methodist preachers,” he said. “When there's & chicken dinner, they all come.” Snider started learning the trade 30 years ago by abstaining from liquor, he said, when hunting companions did not, and he was obliged to do the cooking. He spent 25 years developing his barbecue sauce (it's a secret con- diment that he does not sell). Some of his largest servings were: Fifty beeves and 50 sheep for West Texas Chamber of Commerce meet at Amarillo in 1926; feeding 12,000 per- sons at Sterling, Colo., celebration in 1922; 6,000 at Juarez, Mex., in 1923, and 10,000 at 8 Woodward, Okla., cele- bration in 1926.
