Geo! but Bho was pretty.
Tho crowd set up an awful yell as
tho teamB came trotting on. Tho root
ers gave three cheers for the varBlty,
and then three cheers and a tiger for
tho captain, and the crowd went
completely off watch. Creton kicked
off from tho south goal, and the game
won on.
Suro enough tho sub was in, and
after tho first fow plays, I heard some-'
one behind mo say: "They're weak
on defense." Croton pushed tho ball
steadily up toward tho north goal and
gained their ground every time. I
kept my eyo on Cap, knowing how ho
was feeling about that time. He was
playing desperately from tho word go.
Croton scored at last, but failed to
kick goal, and things stood five to
nothing against us.
I knew how Cap was feeling about
that time, and was on tho watch for
some tall playing. Things got desper
ate then. Tho line bucking was some
thing fierce. I'll declare, I forgot all
about Cap's mothor. She hadn't opened
her head Blnco tho kick-off, and I com
pletly forgot to toll hor when the
touchdown was made.
Suddenly tho crowd went off watch
again, and I saw that Cap had the ball
undor hiB arm, and was making for
tho other goal at tho rate of forty
knots an hour.
Well, Creton's halfback was waiting
for him, and brought him down on
tho fifteen yard lino. That fall was
something fierce. He camo down with
an anklo under him, and an arm
twisted sideways. Ho rolled over once
and then lay stiff.
As I said before, I had forgotten
I folt something clutching my arm.
It was his mother. Her face was as
Cap's mothor, but when he wont down
whlto as a sheet, and for a minute it
camo across mo that she must be sick.
She was breathing hard, and her mouth
had a -strained look, as if she'd beon
running herself.
"Is ho killed?" Bhe gasped, and then
I caught on and rose to tho occasion.
I told her that he'd bo up in a jiffy
and that it wasn't anything, but I
guess she didn't hear me.
"I think I'd better go to him," she
said, and got up and started off. I
saw that she was completely off watch,
and tried my level best to hold her,
but I guess sho didn't even hear mo.
It took her about a minute to dear
the grandstand, and I followed with a
sort of hazy idea about bringing her
back or something. Before I knew it
wo wore skirting tho netting, and
making for tho entrance to the grid
iron. Just as wo turned in by tho bleach
ers Bhe started to run, and1 at that I
started too, but Bhe kept ahead, say
ing over and over that ho must be
killed.
Tho fellows wero all standing
around, and the doctor was feeling of
Cap's Bhouldor as wo camo up. Cap
was just coming out of It, and ho
groaned as tho doctor raised his arm.
"Dislocated," was what tho doctor
said.
Cap's mothor wasj down on hor
knees beside him by that time. She
didn't faint nor Bcream nor do any
thing out of the way. There wasn't
a drop of blood in hor face, but sho
began to feel of the shoulder herBolf
and asked tho doctor to hurry and
have him taken off. When he tried
to stand up that was no go-either, and
finally tho "follpws had to carry him
off In a dead faint.
Well, I guess wo must have cut
rather much of a' figure parading
across that gridiron. First wont tho
fellows with Cap, and then Cap's
mother and myself followed, and as
Cap said afterward1, did the chief
mourner act. I tell you, the crowd
cheered the captain to a fare-yo-well
that day, and I rather guess part of it
was for his mother though thoy didn't
say so.
Cap didn't play any more on the
varsity. It was his last game. That's
why ho lelt so cut up about It. For
weeks after ho looked like the end of
a misspent llfo, and his mother stayed
by him till he was out of It.
When Cap told her he had played
his last game, she didn't say anything,
but a look came ever her face and
she kissed him and well, about that
time I took u 3neak. But I toll you
she was a trump Cap's mother. You
see. I got to know her pretty well,
while she was thc-re with Ca
