* Th at/ My Boy! " ___ bu FRANCIS WALLACE J AUTHOft. OF "HUDDLE*

SYNOPSIS The colorful career of “Big Jeff” Randolph, now a national football hero, has been traced from his humble home in tiny Athens, a midwest factory town, through high school gridiron stardom that made him a magnet for scouts from big colleges and through two years of backfield glory as a superstar at Thorndyke, rich and historic eastern university. He’s the idol of fandom, the pet of society, the envy of back • home neighbors, and “my boy" to his adoring Mom and Pop. To the former, he’s still her little Tommy and to father, well Tom's manners and clothes annoy the veteran glassworker who secretly. however, rates his boy on a par with Pop’s supreme political favorite, Al Smith. Before Thorndyke had put a high hat sort of halo on him. Tommy’s best girl was Dorothy Whitney, daughter of the richest and most important citizen in Athens. But in New York. Tommy has met Elaine Winthrop, society artist and daughter of a Wall Street magnate. More glittering than ever was “Big Jeff" as a senior but in the final game on Thorndyke’s schedule, Yale gets a 14-0 lead in the third quarter. Capt. Randolphs Pilgrims seemed doomed when an Eli lineman calls “Jeff" an “old pro". . . . That was the spark that touched the TNT. . . . Randolph went berserk . . . the Pilgrims are now in touchdown distance, pounding the Bulldogs..,. CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR Within their 15-yard line the Yale defense stiffened —a fourth down pass went into the end zone. Yale had the ball; but the Bulldogs, could do nothing with it; the surging Pilgrim forwards threw back two charges—Harlow's punt was hurried and Barton returned it to the Yale 45. Again the pounding continued—and the Thomdyke gains became b;gg»r; the: crowd awoke to the threat; when the period ended it was Thorndyke’s ball on Eli's 16yard line with one yard to make en fourth down. “This is the play that counts,” Charlie Whitney said. Jerry nodded. “Come on, Jeff, old boy—show ’em your stuff." Dorothy, almost shivering in excitement, seized Jerry’s arm, clung to it Tommy made three yards. Thomdyke was jubilant, on the field and in the stands; on the next play Tommy started wide, sucked the tacklers in, tossed laterally to Barton and then dashed straight for the corner in time to take out two men at one swipe as Barton dragged another over the goal. The kick for goal was blocked. The score was Yale 14, Thomdyke 6. The Thomdyke stands moaned while Yale was exultant. It would take more one touchdown to tie*, Yale was receiving the kickoff; at the worst it could hold the ball, stall for time. Tommy kicked off over the goal line. Yale put the ball in play on its 20. Harlow and Verger were thrown back; Thomdyke’s line was charging so fast Harlow decided to play safe and punt on third down; it went outside on the Pilgrim 42. The 70,000 spectators were tense. Thorndyke’s attack had been an unstoppable juggernaut; could Randolph keep it moving? It stalled; a first down pass was almost intercepted; Randolph was stopped—then, while Yale began to breathe easier, Tommy threw a long pass down the middle; Barton led the ball a yard too far,.turned to catch it: Harlow, coming to intercept. spilled Barton The field judge ran to the Spot

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT FRIDAY. OCTOBER 13, 1933.

GUNMEN SLAY OHIO SHERIFF I DURING BREAK (CONTINUED FROM FAftE ONE) , that state. Dillinger, after his arrest in ■ Dayton, was identified as a participant in at least four bank robber- ! les. They were: the Massachusetts Avenue bank. Indianapolis. $21,000 l the Farrell, Pa., bank, $24,000; n [ New Castle, O . bank. $35,000 and the Bluffton institution. He was arrested at the house of ,

where the men collided, waved his arm down the field — interference was ruled and Thomdyke had first down on the Yale 24. “The gods are with us," Jerry cried warmly. “Let's go!” Yale was protesting the decision; the officials huddled; the interference had been plainly unintentional but it had been illegal. The ruling stood. Tommy made six; Barton three —then, lining up quickly, Tommy was off at left end, far to the left, almost without interference, on a quick reverse which had caught the stampeded Bulldogs flatfooted. He scored standing up; and this time he kicked the goal. Yale 14, Thomdyke 13. As the Pilgrims ran excitedly back to their 40-yard line to kick off, the crowd, all standing now, looked to the clock on the scoreboard. There were four minutes left to play. Dorothy was hanging on her father’s arm now as Tommy's kickoff again sailed over the end zone. Yale put the ball in play on its 20yard line once more—could not gain in two plays and again punted. Barton caught the ball on the dead run and was off dow-n the side lines, cut back into the field and seemed headed into the clear space on the opposite side of the field—but he was brought down by Grogan with a desperate sidesweep. First down on the Eli 38. “Pass!” The Thomdyke crowd wailed. Tommy faded back, lobbed a short one into the flat—two desperate Yale men reached for it, collided—and the ball hit the ground. A universal grdhn gulped from the mass voice of the crowd. Tommy Hied his end sweep again but was stopped. “Pass!” And this time Harlow leaped high in the air and intercepted on his 40-yard line. The action continued swiftly— Harlow, faking a punt on first down, ran ten yards and crossed midfield; he tried two running plays, stalling for time—then daringly gambled with a pass which Barton almost intercepted but could not quite reach. Harlow kicked out of bounds on the Thorndyke 17-yard line. Charlie looked at the clock. Two minutes to go. “That’s the end,” he said, despairingly. “That one point will beat us.” Yale was vibrant now—knocked down a pass; stopped Tommy on a sweep — then Tommy, working quickly to save time, dropped back and threw an undisguised pass straight down the field; Yale had the receivers intelligently covered —but Barton made a quick, desperate, sidelong lunge and caught the ball as he sprawled—held it. First down on the Yale 40—the stands were up again. Substitutes streamed on the field for both teams —one of them a hulking, awkward tackle. There was no doubt about the play to be called—Yale spread to protect against the pass, covered the eligible men — but the ball floated along near the sidelines; the awkward tackle galloped along, completely alone—he reached for it, hugged it with the grace of an elephant The head linesman ran to the spot as players from both teams gathered excitedly. The referee talked to the head linesman for a moment, then swung his arm toward the Yale goal. Charlie Whitney cried: “That tackle was eligible—what a spot to pull it—if there’s only time. Come on. Tommy.” A substitute was rushing out from the Thorndyke bench. Tommy waved him back. Thorndyke lined up Barton took his position ten yards back of the eenter. The ball

was on the 17-yard line, almost directly before the goal posts. The crowd waited, hushed. Everybody knew Thomdyke was gambling on a field goal. Tommy dropped a few yards behind Barton. Yale massed to rush through — Thorndyke dug in to block the frantic Bulldogs. The ball was passed; Tommy kicked it—high and true over tha posts, with ten yards to spare! Thomdyke 16, Yale 14. Dorothy, warm tears streaming from willing eyes, found herself kissing her father. She cried impulsively to Jerry. “Did you get excited?” Jerry shook his head in amazement. “Frank Merriwell is back.” Dorothy turned to watch the rioting crowd. Freddy was jumping up and down, waving his shaggy arms, one of them holding a silver flask aloft. Elaine Winthrop was gathering the folds of her coat, preparing to leave. She smiled, sleepily, at Dorothy. That night the victorious alumni and students of Thorndyke were celebrating. Dorothy sat at a small table with Jerry and her father. Expectancy hung over the hubbub. Then, as if by signal, a mlfchty cheer swept through the ball room. The orchestra swung into the strains of the Thomdyke Victory March. Jeff Randolph had arrived; he danced with Elaine Winthrop; his face was flushed and he seemed embarrassed; but he did not smile. Elaine was almost gaspingly lovely, her slim curves only faintly disguised in a sheath of white satia. Tommy, seeing Dorothy and her father, stopped at their table; the music ceased and they sat down. “Nice going, Jeff,” Jerry said. “Thanks, Jerry.” Charlie Whitney rested his hand on Tom’s shoulder for a moment, then brought a flask from under the folds of a napkin and poured a drink. “Take it, Tom—it’ll do you good.” He looked tired; his eyes were dead and lustreless; his face was bruised; one eye was slightly puffed. Dorothy avoided his gaze until it became embarrassing; then she met his eyes. “Will you dance, Dot?” She had not danced with him for three years; he moved freely, faultlessly; she felt smaller in his arms; she realized how much he had grown in that time. People were watching them; calling to him. “You’re quite the hero, Tom." “We were lucky.” “I’m greatly honored. Every girl here is envying me.” “Please, Dot—not tonight.” His voice was gentle; sincere; she felt the warm strength of his arms and melted into his mood. It was strangely peaceful; the music and the people and the place drifted away. “Tom—” “Yes?” “Why are you so nice tonight?” “Why are you?” “Because you were so marvellous today, I suppose.” “And if I hadn’t been?” Something in his voice annoyed her. She lifted her head and said swiftly: “Listen, Tom Randolph, if you think—” He smiled indulgently as he would at a child of whom he was fond, caught her close and danced furiously, as he had when they were in high school. When they returned to the table Dorothy was suddenly aware that her father, Elaine and Jerry were watching them curiously.
