■fliiat? My Boy! /z bu FRANCIS WALLACE . J AUTHOR. OF "HUDDLE''
SYNOPSIS ~ Thomas Jefferson Randolph . . . now a great football prospect at famous Thorndyke University . . . was born of humble parents. Mom and Pop. in a little Middle West factory town where he won early renown as a brilliant high school back so much so that the great eastern college had lured him to its swanky halls. Tommy came home for Christmas, spent much of the time trying to polish household manners, did not return Easter, but during his summer vacation he caused a most profound sensation throughout critical Athens by flashing on that burg the very latest in sport togs, white knickers, flannels, et al. The neighbors are rather caustic but. as Mom explains it, "if you fly with fine birds you must wear fine feathers" referring to her boy's “millionaire college chums'* . . . However, Tommy’s social and sartorial splendor causes another flare-up between those two veteran Democrats, Pop and Uncle Louie, the stalwart Thorndyke freshman constantly correcting the grammar, diction, etc., of his workaday elders. . . . CHAPTER FIFTEEN Tommy talked much differently than he had before, even when he was home at Christmas. He didn’t laugh so much and was more dignified: and he used better grammar except when he let something slip i like that "attaboy.” Mom eould see | he was trying to improve himself and so she didn't mind it so much when he corrected her grammar. Everybody should talk right, particularly when they had a son at Thorndyke. “Don’t pay no attention to that bagga wind,” Pop said. “Don’t pay any attention, Fa- ' ther,” Tommy corrected him. “I said no attention.” “But any attention is correct.” “You knew what I meant, didn’t you?” “Yes, Father, but—" “Then what the dang difference does it make what words I use?” “It’s just the way it sounds.” “Listen, Son, you're going to college and you talk the way you want; but I went to the school of hard knocks and I talk the way I learnt there. Now don’t bother me no more.” • • • But Mom felt sorry for Pop just the same; particularly after that when she caught him correcting himself when he was talking to outsiders. It was the same way with ! her; but when they had a son like Tommy they didn’t want to disgrace him. Still, Pop was funny. She caught him looking at some of Tommy's | outfits and shaking his head. She knew he didn’t quite see why Tommy had to wear them, just like ' everybody else; even Mom didn’t, , for that matter; but Pop had declared himself before Uncle Louie and he’d stick to it because you'd never catch Pop admitting he was wrong. Then came the job. I Soon as Tommy came home Pop had started using his influence to get a job for him. It wasn’t hard, because Mom knew Charlie Whitney had a soft spot in his heart for Tommy and almost everybody | in town would have been proud to I have him work for them, for that matter; but Pop made a big to-do about it and came home with the news he had a place for Tommy on the lears, which was where the glass was picked up after it had been tempered. “But I don’t want to work yet, Father,” Tommy explained. “You didn’t go to college to learn how to be a loafer, did you?” Pop I asked, indignantly. Then Tommy explained. Mom couldn’t understand it very well but

the way Tommy told it she knew he was right. He needed some rest, first. Pop laughed at that—he couldn’t see that at all, how anybody needed rest when they had been doing nothing but wasting time at college. Then Tommy had to improve his golf game, he said. Pop was fit to be tied and started a sermon about he wasn't keeping a house for nutty guys who played cow-pasture pool, which was what the men at the factory called it; although Mom knew none of them had ever seen the golf. But Tommy was patient and explained the whole thing. “In the kind of work I’ll be doing, Father,” he said, “golf is important. Big business men get together in a golf game and talk over deals as they go around the course; so it just isn’t for the fun of it. If a fellow can't play a good game of golf he’s handicapped. “But I don't want to play golf all summer. I’ve got it all mapped out. I'll rest and golf for two weeks, then I’ll work for six weeks, and the tougher the job the better because I want to be hard as nails when I quit and go back to school in shape. Then I’ll rest another week before I go back. I went over the whole program with Coach Taylor before I left." Pop was satisfied if Tommy was willing to work some and Mom was glad because the boy seemed to be enjoying himself so much at the golf — and because almost every day he went with Dorothy Whitney in her car to the Smithville Country Club where her father was a member and where some of Tommy’s school friends played. Then, true to his promise, he went to work in the factory at a harder job than on the lears; he was a trucker and carried boxes of ware to the packer’s benches and then took the barrels away and put them in stock. This work was almost all lifting and everybody said i Tommy was a real good worker. On account of being so tall they said he could lift higher than his head and could pile the boxes up higher than anybody else; and they said there was nobody could break down a stack of barrels like Tommy. Everybody seemed real surprised at the way he worked and Mom knew Pop was very proud of the way he showed the knockers that he could do hard work if he really wanted to.

Tommy worked the day turn I which gave him his evenings off. I It did Mom’s heart good to see the I way he put away a good meal and I she could almost see him growing and getting bigger and stronger, i particularly around the shoulders. Charlie Whitney stopped to talk ta Pop once and told him Wmmy would give the “Big Three” lines plenty of trouble; and when Pop I told Mom she knew Tommy would although she didn’t want him to get I into trouble with anybody; but Charlie Whitney seemed to think it was something to be proud of, so Mom was proud too. In the evenings after supper— I Mom could never remember to call it dinner, it seemed—Tommy would | go down town and talk football or go to the movies with Dorothy or I take a ride in her car. They were keeping steady company but the best Mom could ever get out of Tommy about it was that Dot was a good scout. Tommy never gave any of his money at home but this was all right because he was buying himself more clothes and saving up for spending money. He got himself a lot of fancy-striped underwear which the neighbor ladies used to look at and shake their heads. All of the neighbors always watched the washings that were hung out and Mom’s was always spotless as she took a pride in hanging out lovely washings; but she noticed that even Joie Farrell still wore the plain white beeveedees which went to show that he i was just the same bump on a log and wasn’t learning much at college. Sure enough, Joie was working ; the vacation at the mill over the i river and doing just what Pop said the chemists did over there, which was test iron every so oftgp and then sleep between tests; which proved that Pop knew what he had ■ been talking about all right. No- j body paid much attention to Jois . who went moping along and didn’t I ' seem to bother anybody, which was i more than could be said for his i i mother. Joie and Tommy said hello ■ wiienever they met and seemed to : be real friendly and once Mom ■ heard them talking about the foot- ' ball although she didn't know what ' I a shrimp like Joie would know about the football as he hardly : knew he was alive.
