SYNOPSIS Ted Wynne left his position in tiie Bellport stFei mill to work his way through Old Dominion College so he might be the equal of the wealthy Barb Roth. He succeeds creditably. Coach Barney Mack makes him a quarterback on his nationally known Blue Comets. The first year they lose one game only, for which Tom Stone, Ted’s rival in love and football, blames Ted. Barb breaks an appointment with Ted in favor of Tom. Hurt. Ted decides to teach her a lesson and ignores her. In the company of beautiful Rosalie Downs, Ted forgets Barb for a while, but back at school she holds his thoughts. Softened by a summer of forced leisure and after-effects of a hand infection, Ted is not in his usual form. The team is also handicapped by the absence of Captain Jim Davis due to an injury. Defeated by the Navy, they come back in their game with Illinois but lose later to Georgia. CHAPTER XXVI Beat Army! The Cadets had been rolling along invincibily, having conquered Southern Methodist. Harvard and Yale without uncovering any more in the way of attack than Cagle. New Dominion had the poorest squad in its modern history. With only four games played it had already lost as many games as Barney had ever lost in any one season—as many as he had lost in four years of one stretch; but those were men in those days of Harry Hulbert. These were only goats; black sheep. 1 he squad felt its position keenly Tradition was a mighty thing. The fact that they were smirching it punctured the deviltry of Pat Moynton, the cynicism of Stone, the joviality of Pidge, the careful thought of Wynne. The gym was a morgue—no pep, deadly serious. If they lost one more game they would break many records—be the first of Barney’s squads to lose three in one season; the first to lose two straight to Army; they would have iost as many in one year as Barney had lost in his first six years—— And State, Arnjy, Tech and SoutKera Cal were waiting—three of them unbeaten. State was licked by pure Hr'ving fury Barney started his first team and kept them in to the finish to protect a one-touchdown lead. Beat Army and climb back into the king row. The Army must not pass. “I feel just the same about this game as I did when I first went into the mill to work," Ted told Pidge, “if I come out before the whistle blows they’ll have to carry me out.” “Me too. We can't hold our heads up if we lose this one. How's your legs?” “Just about right. How's yours?” "Getting stronger—but maybe 1 won’t get much chance," "We can’t depend on Jim." ' Captain Jim Davis, with his wrist still in a cast, had been working out secretly for a week, imploring Barney to let him start against Army. “It feels all right,” he urged Barney. “You get in shape and we’ll have an X-ray taken before the game—but don’t count too heavily, Jim. It’s- the right spirit but that's your arm and this is only a football game.” "It’s all right. Barney. This is my team —I gotta get in against Army.”

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1932.

Spike Parker, under instructions from Barney, kept the news that Davis might start as a secret of war. Army scouts knew Pidge had a bad leg and that Garoldi was unreliable. Let them think so—a broken wrist usually kept a man out for the season. 9 Beat Armyl The squad was pointing itself. The Student Activity Committee was preparing for a rally to send the team away. Vince Regan, a member of Barncy’a humorous Downtown Coaches Association, came to him with a plan. "We’ve got to let the boys know the school is really back of them this time—and with something more than the usual formal speeches.” Barney liked the idea; Regan took it up with the Prefect of Discipline and the Chairman of the S. A C. On the Monday before the Army game a letter appeared on all bulletin boards of the University; it was signed “C. E. T7" and the writer scathingly accused the students of being cream puffs; of not caring whether the team lost to Army. It aroused only cynical snorts, particularly from upperclassmen. The next morning another appeared, charging a group of fake sophisticates with dissipating the famous New Dominion spirit; inferring that they were mostly upperclassmen who would have found themselves dumped in the lake had they tried that stuff in the days of Harry Hulbert and the writer. Groups in each Hall began to argue that, although C. E. 'l7 was an old crab, there was something to his argument There were fake intellectuals in every dormitory and hey should be routed out and given the water cure.

On Thursday morning C. E. 'l7 issued the last of his philippics, predicting that at the pep meeting that night his charge would be substantiated. In the afternoon, the S. A. C.. in an official bulletin, instructed the students from each hall to march from their own building in order to prevent trouble; requesting them to avoid clashes en route and to ignore the charges of C. E. 'l7 So there were clashes; when the marching lines converged at the gymnasium nobody would give ground and hot-blooded undergraduates in each section took advantage of the opportunity to physically deny that they were either cream puffs or fake intellectuals. When the squad appeared on the platform, two thousand college men, including a section of belligerent day students, formed a boiling mob Ted, cynical at the outset, admitted that whatever it had been at the beginning, it had developed into something real. Pat. while maintaining the proper modesty of demeanor, said in an undertone: “Will you have it sliced or in gobs?” But the Senator from Elkhart was not there; nor the lawyer from Valpo; nor the perennially youthful professor of history; nor the president of the Chicago club—each with his package of well-seasoned bromides. Barney wasn't there; nor the Prefect of Discipline—not a faculty man Nola red light; not a band man —just the squad on the stage and the buzzing, riotous student body. Francis Kelland. orator, glee clubber, editor ot the Dominion, president of the Scribblers and acknowledged leader of the campus intellectuals, wen‘ tc the platform i

They read the story of the inter- i national battle in scrawls of chalk marking the dai’y price on black j boards at country elevator sidings. Those blackboards today carried 1 Iprice.s lower than any man had seen 1 before in this nation. Historians hunted through the ( records and found the only com ( parison in prices paid at the time ■ Queen Elizabeth ruled England and I the western Hemisphere was n still i savage wilderness many weeks dis 1 over perilous seas. Kansas towns reported wlied at I 20 cents a bushel, in many cases ' less than a fourth the production ’ cost, in Alberta wheat was sel’ing ' lat $9 a ton in regions where saw- 1 dust was quoted at $lO a ton. tn the whirlpool of descending i wheat prices, corn, oats, rye and I other firm products were hurled !i downwaiu. So low were the prices that at a j few interior points all quotations j s were suspended and elerators re-p fused to buy on any basis, local brokers were advised. I Corn, wheat and oats were sell I ing at less than half the freight I cost required to bring them to mar < ket »t Chicago. lowa and Nebras- t ke reported corn so'd at seven ami I - eight cents a bushel. These prices < I left the farmer nothing after deduction of husking and delivery !costs with seed costs, taxes and a; year's work not even figured in. J 'Many farmers saved their harvest i

and spoke without introduction; spoke to a curious silence following a scattered booing. "When 1 first came to New Dominion,” he began. "I was told of something that happened in the Army game of 1920. Tilings were breaking badly on the Plains. Harry Hulbert, playing the game that gave him immortality, said something to his teammates ” Kelland was an orator. He paused. "Harry Hulbert said: ‘We can’t quit now—think of the boys back in the gym pulling for ns.' ” Another pause—quiet. “You know me and what 1 stand for. I asked for the privilege of coming up here tonight to speak for you — to tell Jim Davis and Ted Wynne and Pat Moynton and Jim Pidgin and Tom Stone and Wally-Sheets and all the rest on this stage, that the spirit still is here—that our team means as much to us as even Harry Hulbert's team meant to C. E. 'l7 or any of his damned dried-up classmates.” Pandemonium. Rising. Shrieking. Tears welled in Ted's eyes; even Pat had his head down. The squad stood, shifting awkwardly from nne foot to another. Finally Jim Davis, arm still in a sling, went to the front; he met a fresh burst which finally subsided. "Thanks, fellows,” he said. "You just do the best you can and I'll do the best we can.” A laugh broke the tension. Jim laughed with them, not knowing that he had coined a line to become famous in New Dominion tradition, a line that forever linked the team with the students. Jim started from the platform; a lane quickly formed through which the squad ran with arms over their heads as protection against the slapping which every man in school was trying to give them. They took the punishment almost without feeling. For the moment they were gods. The Stadium was packed to its dim recesses. Elevated trains pouted thousands towards the gates. The Army band was playing martial airs, the Cadets Corps was booming out cheers as only they can boom. The stillness of death In the New Dominion dressing room. A trainer stepped on a loose board under the showers—it rattled like thunder. The squad sat about, tensely, on trunks, benches, floors. Barney called sharply. “Everybody in close.” They spiang quickly, huddled in a blue circle; were qifiet again “Boys, you know the situation better than I can tel! you They're calling you failures—the poorest team we’ve ever had. "But 1 say you’re not! “Army will be tough; confident; it’s in their hip pockets right now; the papers give them four touchdowns. "But I say you’re going to win!” Whistling quiet. Barney lowered his voice; fixed his eyes on a window above the lockers. "The day befoie Harry Hulbert died he called for me; we talked about things He knew he was through He was ready. "Then he said Barney, Pm going to ask you to do.something foe me.’ Boys, this is what lie said: "‘Some day. when things look awful tough, tougher than they have ever looked before, ask the team to go out and lick the Army for me.' ” I Fo Ke Continued)

to use as the winters lue). The high bids in Chicago for corn were between 21 and 22 cents. Determined to export as much I grain as possible, local dealers" chartered every available vessel on thr Great Unites for the balance of Hie season. Water shipments were the greatest in 10 years. Most of; the shipments were for northern European countries. The struggle, for the export market Hared up suddenly largo'y due to two causes. LaSalle street experis said. The first was a suddenj determination on the pail of Canada to rid that nation of its huge I wheat surplus by exporting at any price. With this decision the pegged IP ice of 50 cents a bushel for wheat ( at Winnipeg was dropped Monday and quotations fell rapidly. Meanwhile the United States had exported only 14 million bushels of wheat since July, the sma’elst amount in 30 years. This week' federal restrictions oh ■ trading -in the Chicago board of trade were removed alid the butt e for the export market was on. Grain merchants entered the in- , ternational fight determined to sell the surplus at whatever figure could be obtained. o Mr. and Mrs. Orville Rhodes f P rtlantl attended the Phi D Ita Kappa Halloween dance here W,= d-; nesday night.
