| SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING INSTALLMENTS. Chuck Arnold, s great prospect in his freshman year at foot ball Tefuses to turn DUt for the Varsity. - Arnold disiikes Coach CBrair's brutal, driving tactics and tells im so. Particularly indignant over Ar- nold's refusal to turn out for the team s Mr. Marshall, & rabid Colburn alumnus, ‘whose daughter. Nancy Chuck is in love with. Chuck does not help his popularity among the Students when he defends Pen alstead, editor of the college paper. who ad voiced his disgust of sentimental emo- tlonalism over foot ball. Jed Blake. husky tackle, gives Chuck a Bronx cheer at the end of his speech and Chuck tells him he Will meet him Tuesday and demand an apology. Colburn is beaten for the third Jear in succession by Sanford and the defeat does not rest easily on Coach Mc- Brair's shoulders. Chuck is surprised to find Jed Blake awaiting him when he ar- Fives at the spot agreed upon Blake re- Tuses to apologize. INSTALLMENT VIL HUCK and Blake around nervously as they pulled off their sweaters. A fight on the campus very likely meant expulsion for the partici- pants if they were discovered. Blake was still smiling, confidently, irritat- ingly, self-assuredly. Chuck's lips were closed tightly in determination as he walked to the center of the clear- ing. He knew he could box, but not having done so in months, he wasn't sure of himself. And then, Blake was @ big boy. And he was smiling. They squared off. Chuck projected his left arm at full length and tapped Blake on the cheek several times in quick succession, as though getting the range for a heavier blow that would come later. Blake left his face unpro- tected. He kept smiling, at the same time warding off Arnold’s punches. They exchanged a few fairly solid | blows about the head and ribs. Chuck | was gaining confidence. In another | minute he was convinced that he/ could outbox Blake, and if he could | stay away from his “haymaker” he | might easily get the better of the ar-| gument. They danced about nimbly. | For a big man, Chuck concluded, Blake | was exceptionally fast. He moved about easily and with lightning-like | speed. Blake suddenly hooked Chuck on the jaw bone with a blow that scat- tered his brains for fully two seconds. But he still was confident that he could stay with Blake. Crack! and the big Southwesterner landed another beautiful blow on the bridge of Chuck’s nose. Fortunately, he had side- stepped just in time to avoid taking the full measure of strength and weight packed behind that punch. Even 30, it made him feel conscious of the growing weight of his feet. They weren't moving fast enough for him now. They were slow to respond, and apparently growing larger by the second. “Listen, Arnold, I don't like to say 4t,” said Blake, stepping around nimbly and avoiding Chuck’s wild blows, “I'm afraid you're just about to take one unmerciful licking. If you all want to | say ‘quits’ you can. hand, if you don't speak up right soon, T'se afraid you're not goin’ to be able to talk at all.” At that very moment he let go a teriffic shower of jabs and hooks that swept Arnold off his feet. | His big pile drivers pounded Chuck’s | glanced head and face with piston-like ra-| pidity, until the latter felt as though every man on the campus was taking | @ crack at him with a base ball bat. 1 Chuck’s defense was completely | shattered by the avalanche of power- ful and telling blows and he suddenly saw things go black. He dropped to the ground. Gamely he struggled to his feet, but he could see only blurred images in front of his eyes. Smack! And Blake's big bare fist planted itself | squarely on Chuck’s unguarded nose. As he dropped to the ground, he; thought he heard the fire siren blow. | The weird, shrill, penetrating signal/ went through his beaten brains like some fantastic chord wafting him to | sleep. Blake, still fresh, leaped behind him and caught him under the arms to hold him up. Arnold was dead to the world. Blake lifted him up in his arms and carried him over to the empty oil barrel. With a well-aimed kick he knocked the barrel on its side. Then he set Chuck up in a sitting po- | sition with his back against the bar- | rel. Quickly he crossed the clearing ' and picked up his sweater. Rolling it up into an improvised pillow, he placed it gently behind Chuck’s weary | and bloody head. | The fire siren was still blowing. Not | only in Chuck's foggy brain, but lnl reality. Blake hastened up to the! woodpile and grabbed hold of an old | rubber hose. He turned it on, and water flowed reluctantly from its rusted nozzle. He wet his handker- chief and ran back to Arnold. Chuck’s | eyes were still closed. Blake wiped Chuck’s begrimed face tenderly, and | tried his best to bring him to. Slowly | Chuck’s bloodshot eyes opened. “Where . . . who? . . . Blake?” he ftammered, and then as it dawned upon him that he was on the ground !

On the other | — he tried to get up to continue with the battle. “Oh, no, you don't, old man,” said Blake, holding him by the shoulders. “You're game enough, to be sure, but you'd be crazy to try to go on like this. Why, Arnold, you can't stand up. Here, try,” and he lifted Chuck up to his feet. There was no use. He was out. His head was whirling. He was dizzy and groggy. His face felt like a balloon. His legs were heavy, and he could hardly raise his arms. “All right, Blake. I guess you've got the best of the argument. I'm lcked.” “Let’s forget it, Arnold,” suggested Blake, offering his big bronzed hand in a gesture of sincere peace-making. “It was pretty rotten of me to pull that kid stuff at the Halstead session. I'm sorry. But I suppose I'm & bit too ornery to apologize when a fellow demands it of me.” i “I guess we both lost our heads, Blake, said Chuck, shaking his hand. “You sure have a pair of pile drivers there. I always thought I could box until now. They're dynamite.” “I'd suggest you wash up a little, Arnold. Your face is a little dirty. There's & hose over there. It's run- ning, I think.” “Thanks.” “I don’t want to hurry away on you all, but I think we both ought to clear out of here as soon as we can. It's a good chance, too. The fire siren blew a little while ago, so most of the college has probably gone to the fire. We're both looking kind of messy, and we could easily get back to our rooms if we go mow without being seen. I'll take you over to your | place, if you want me to; my old Ford | is parked just up the hill there.” “That's mighty nice of you, Blake.” “Not at all.” When they got to the house where Chuck lived, Blake shook hands with | him again and smiled. “You know,| Arnold,” he began reticently, "it'sl none of my business, and I'm not| trying to dictate to any one. That's not the way I like to do things. But| I know one thing, and that is that| our old ball club could use & guy with | your guts. Why don't you take al crack at it next Fall? I'm sure you wouldn't regret it.” | Chuck shook hands with him,| smiled back, and said “Maybe I will, Blake.” | Barkley rushed to the door as he| heard Chuck’s footsteps on the stairs. “How'd you come out? C’'mon, let's have it . Did you take him? Boy! You look as though you'd been pressed in a waffle iron. Pete's sake, what a mug. What ja used, stilettoes? No kidding, | Chuck, what happened?” “Nothin’ much. What do ya think?” | “Judging by the looks of that map of yours, I'd say you offered to act as the tackling dummy for McBrair'’s Y@%um-som 80 EARLY—LOW FARES FROM WASMINGTON DALY ‘THE TAMIAMI T min“in’;:i;mdlb-mb:u.

I got the worst of the argument, and that’s all there is to it.” “Condition lickea you, Chuck, I'll bet.” “Condition, hell. It all happened so fast I didn’t have a chance to realize what rotten shepe I'm in. I know though. My feet felt like lead after the first two minutes. sy wind was poor, and my shots worse. I missed him more often than I hit him. But I'm not alibing it. He'd whip me into mincemeat any afternoon, condition or no condition.

He's really a grand “What makes you think so, after he beat hell out of you?” “Everything. After he punched me into a state of semi-consciousness, or worse, I woke up to find him wash- ing my face with water from a nearby hose, and tending me as though I were a child or invalid.” “Well, Il be damned. And I thought it was a grudge fight.” “Yes and no. I sort of pulled him into it by demanding that apology. I should of, let it pass. And I'm not saying that because I took a trouncing either.” “No?” “That reminds me. I remember hearing a fire siren just as I was geing out. I thought it was simply the noise in my brain or the ringing in my ears, but Blake sald there really was a fire. He heard the siren himself.” “You're right, he heard the siren. So did the whole college. I ought to know.” “What do you mean Sam,—you ought to know?” “Simply that I turned in the alram that sent the blamed siren a howlin".” “Honestly?"” “Sure.” “How come?"” know, I'll give you | plates. the story. This morning I took break- fast in the cafeteria. Buzz Hanson was at the same table as I was. He men- tioned that his geology class was going outdoors this morning to find differ- ent kinds of stratified rock specimens around the campus. When I asked him where they’d most likely look for them, he said somewhere around the old gym. The college authorities don't mind their digging up earth there. I asked him what time they'd go out. He said a little after 11. I knew you and Blake would be going at it hammer and tongs about then, so I slipp 1 out of my lecture at five after eleven, dropped a match in & pile of rubbish right beside the de- serted tool house down by the base ball field, and rung the siren call. I knew no harm could come of it, and since the whole college would run to the fire, I figured you wouldn’t be caught fighting by Professor Kendrickson of the geology depart- ment, and probably booted out of college? Savvy?” Chuck wagged his head, not know- ing what to say. “What a roommate— always seeing to it that I keep a step ahead of the Dean. Thanks old man. But tell me what happened to the fire.” “I was the first to get there, and beat it out with a board before the volunteers arrived. No one's the wiser, so mum’s the word.” (To Be Continued) lfl-":alseTeefd[l'm Don’t allow your false veeth to ! or slip when you eat, talk or laugh.
