CHAPTER XX I idee leaned his head on an |tJ>,'W, looked at the ceiling and »sid 1 don’t claim to be smart | but 1 ve learned one thing about women 1 he best remedy for a U yen heart is a pretty fa<e—and tin world is full of them." It s not their faces that worry me " Well, you look too deep; you lake things too seriously. Kid 'em along, hoys, and if they turn you to stone, like that baby in mythology, the next one will bring you to life.” “Maybe." "You know what you better do'' Ridge asked quickly, "you belter come down to the Scholar»hi|> Dance with me this week. You don ( have to drag a woman— they re there; and you kind of get together. 1TI bet if you came down you II see a face that w ill launch you on a thousand dates.” Pidge would have won his bet. Betsy had the face of a kewpie d !l but behind it a demure pre* l " 1 I Uion Km heure was billowed with parabolas that snugsled softly to her partner during a dance. She laughed readily, was easily amused, childishly diverting. Her home was a modest cottage with a swing m the veranda shadows After the dance they •dulled there. It was an etTortless evening and a pleasant one—Ted enjoyed the freedom from strain. He decided to see Betsy often »» a harmless diversion; an antidote to his high powered romances. Barney told reporters at a luncheon iu New York that he would k*f four games the next season. Ihev laughed Me explained that bis first eleven would graduate, that he would have to depend on nrw material That was old stulT; Barney had had elevens graduate on him before hut he always had others ready-r-only twice during bin nine years of coaching had he Lm two.games—and he played the loughest who were willing to take » chance with him He had built up his schedules— •nd schedule making was no easy )'T> Nobodv wanted to lose, and h. item of filling the stadia, Bv solving the latter with great terms, impressive teams, 'earns the Npectators liked to watch, the Blue Comets had be ' me the greatr-t box office atWac’ton of them all. And Barney got Mme« wherevei he wanted them m ept from some social acliools ' h presti^,. which did not want >uit ivy toiled by getting licked ** '°ng as thev could fill their big V* 1 " 1 bents with teams they could dueat.
Shortly after making his prediction, Barney returned to New Dominion and started winter practice in the gym in order to prevent his prophecy from coming
true.
i he key to his system was his off-tackle play, most of his formations starting that way, as all skyrockets shoot into the sky, but breaking into whatever design the quarterback had called for to suit the particular situation. Barney stressed speed, deception, nifty handling of the hall—and all this required detail. He got the detail by practicing in the winter and spring. There was nothing mysterious about in’s system—that was why he could give it away at coaching schools—but it was tedious and intricate; that was why he taught it better than any of his pupils spread throughout the country. Barney Mack probably knew a little more football than other great coaches; but he excelled principally because he was teaching something a step ahead of them and because he was a great teacher. Having the freshmen eligible for varsity the next season out in track ^ults in the gym during the winter was one of Barney's trumps. They worked easily, without strain; learned the plays and signals, the backfield shift, and when it was time for spring training outdoors they weie ready to start the rough
stuff
Hard Times Dance. Pidge was active for days before the annual hobo pageant. “Lemme take them shoes Have you got a hat that looks worse than this? How about those old pants with the seal out?" Where it came from nobody knew- suddenly the Hard Times Dance had adopted New Dominion like a vagabond pup and became a part of tradition. Pidge, Ted, Pat Movnion and Bmte Foreman had chartered an ash wagon, driven by two mules and decorated with tintinnahnlating cans. Dressed in the worst clothing to he found even at New Dominion, they drove in state to the castles of their ladies and picked up their gingham princesses Ted was dragging Betsy, who when she saw the equipage, squealed and fluttered Pidge had discovered a new one in the west end Pat and the Brute had located a pair on Garter Heights. Only regulars made the Haid Times. Down the main drag, Pidge standing up in the front, cracking the whip over mules which just couldn't be. bothered; Pat, partly lubricated, standing in the tear, saluting amused spectators. Four hours of noise: a continuous vaudeville—an individual got hot. left his partner and did his interpretation of Jack Donohue or Bill Robinson; a group gathered about — urged him ou - others joined. Collegiate versions df the Virginia Reel . . . Big Pat doing spring dance—football men imitating choru- hoys. . . Dervish dancing. . . . Two orchestras bang ing continuous pandemonium.

nally announcing the winners— male and female—“and the Grand Exalted Bum—James Pidgin." Pidge acknowledging hit triumph, receiving a brass cuspidor. I verybody cheering. They like Pidge. Riotous hours; blood running wild; Betsy flushed and pretty, dancing close. Kissing Betsy on the shadowed veranda. . . . Kissing her again. . . . Betsy gurgling; Betsy liking it; Betsy's round eyes, hinting everything, saying nothing. More evenings with Betsy. . . . Hunting the shadows for warm kisses—clinging to each other as they said good night; talking less and less about nothing. Her lips were warm, like Rosalie's; but she didn't capture the imagination; she left the mind free to think—too free. Betsy's kisses were like Betsy. Talking to Betsy: “Betsy, we've got to do something” “Why?" "We're not doing each other any good.” "No?” “No. Pm still in school and can’t be serious; but we're moving too fast It seems we can't go on as we did before." “Let's try.” He met her folks; friendly people, the man a small contractor. Crazy about Betsy, an only child— all the more reason for being careful The four of them played bridge; he liked her parents but was bored with bridge. He tried to talk about nothing again—but they couldn't find the way back to that. Betsy wasn't much help They said good night under the porch light after that. ft was a perverse world; people contimially stepping out of the characters in which he had them cast. Betsy was intended to he a harm less diversion; like other girls she became only a problem Ted had enough problems. He dropped Betsy from Ins schedule. Barney sprang a new one at spring football lectures These were designed to give the theory which was lain worked out on the field It was no task to attend Bar ney’s classes; he taught football with common sense tinctured by satire, flavored by humor; his die tion was apt at any time to borrow from Freud. Mencken, Edison. Pasteur or Cabell He wanted Ins teams to be smart—these lectures did a lot to achieve the result; he aimed to have a squad of quarterbacks "All right,’’ he opened up one day at the blackboard, ’ we re playing Southern Cal next year and we re stalling now Wynne kicks off and Drury brings it back to the Js yard line where Barker stops him What play should they call. Caroldi Garoldi was a bear-like freshman with every physical attribute of a great star but lacking in experience and mental alertness “Pass,” he answered. The squad laughed. "Eungy. eh’" Barney replied quickly “Pete Icnows his personnel, that's all Drury ; asses’ over the line to the end; Pidgin, wlu^ should be covering, is looking into the stands to.see if his newest girt • 1S in section 23, Row F, Seat 12— and the pass is good for fifteen rards before Sheets makes the tae^le What play, Brute?” * " "Off-Uckla.” tie P< Gaatinuoff • - -- - •
