Left Tackle Thayer

CHAPTER IV
1/16


CLINT CUTS PRACTICE Brimfield played the first game on her schedule a few days later, winning without difficulty from Miter Hill School in ten-minute periods by a score of 17 to 0.

There was much ragged football on each side; but Brimfield showed herself far more advanced than her opponent and had, besides, the advantage of a heavier team.

Clint looked on from the bench, with some forty others, and grew more hopeless than ever of making good this year.

His present status was that of substitute tackle on the third squad, and it didn't look as though he'd get beyond that point.

If he had expected his introduction to Jack Innes to help his advancement he must have been disappointed, for the Captain, while he invariably spoke when he saw him, and once inquired in the locker-room how Clint was getting along, paid little attention to him.
