THE BLUE AND GOLD. '17. be turned? He glanced to the right just for an instant, then let the ball fly. Away down to the left, unnoticed and unmissed, was Hazelton going like the wind as the ball dropped over his right shoulder into his strong grasp. Stanford was dazed, for there sitting on the ball between the goalpost was Hazelton. Marshall failed to kick straight and the score stood 6-o. Stanford received and worked the ball up to Berkeley's thirty yard line and showed signs of going still further. Berkeley students on the bench were hoarse. The players dug holes, fought better than ever, but still Stanford could not-be stormed. On they came with plunges and crashes never stopping a minute. With a great line plunge their full-back deposited the ball behind the goal. Although their best punter had been out in the early part of the game, their quarter had the hall placed and over the bar it went. clean as could be. Richards received the ball at the kick off and did good work. bringing the ball forty yards up the field. Buddy put more ginger in this play for he had wisely reserved a surplus amount of energy to use at the final moment. By hard and safe plays the team was brought up to the fifth yard line. During those plays Clinton had been taken off the field on a stretcher with a brokenleg. Hazelton who contested with Buddy in being the speediest had wrenched his ankle. Marshall fumbled on the next play and Stanford came on again with their iron blows. Berkeley's twenty-five yard line was reached and Stanford determined to pass. Over to the right came the ball where it was met b both 'Williams and his opponent. Bang ! went the ball as the two players jumped. Where was it? Where was the ball? Who had it? "There he goes," shouted a Stanford player. All turned and going down the field making his best time was Buddy. Stanford's full and quarter were after him. Past the forty-yard line went Buddy, never turning, always summoning his last nerve, past the thirty, past the twenty ; it seemed a year later when lie crossed the fifteen yard line. He could hear his opponents breathing. but he could go no faster. Louder and louder grew the breadline,. he met the tenth, eighth, sixth, fifth, fourth, finally the third. Could he make it? With one more effort he called all his strength together and five more steps, four three two—could he make the last one. with one more tug and under the goal he was with two opponents piled on him. There he lay, dirty, tired, exhausted, and unconscious, but safely tucked under him was the bail. The Strategy of Women ALICE HALL, '18 "Ho, ho, Skinny! come on over here. I've got somethin' ter tell yer," called Willie to his fair fat friend who lived across the street. With a glance at the windows to see that all was safe, Skinny dropped the carpet beater and hurried as fast as possible across the street, wishing the while that he was more like his name. Willie, bristling with importance. met him at the gate, then led him behind. the barn. where they could hold this secret session, as they thought. uninterrupted. "Say Skinny, you just come over here tonight. there's going to be somethin' doin'. No one knows I know, but I heard my sisters talkin' yesterday 'bout the new minister. Luvy said that he's got false teeth, and Sally said "No." No she was dead sure he hadn't. Anywaythey made a bet an' are goin' to have him over at our house tonight an' find out for sure. "You come on over about half past eight, and we'll stay in the dining room and peek all' don't ever tell no one, 'cause His warning was interrupted by a shrill cry. "Joseph, where are you? I put you to beat them mats, to take down some of your fat. so you kin be livin' up to the name of "Skinny," them rascals he givin' ya." With this declaration. Mrs. Bailey appeared around the corner of the barn and taking hold of Skinny's ear, kindly helped him home.
