The Hillton stand cheered hoarsely, madly.
"Line up! Line up!" cried the Blue's quarter.

"Signal!" Then it was that St.Eustace made her fatal mistake.

With the memory of the delayed pass which had won St.Eustace her previous touch-down in mind, the Hillton quarter-back was on the watch.
The ball went back, was lost to view, the lines heaved and strained.
Decker shot to the left, and as he reached the end of the line the St.
Eustace left half-back came plunging out of the throng, the ball snuggled against his stomach.

Decker, just how he never knew, squirmed past the single interferer, and tackled the runner firmly about the hips.

The two went down together on the seven yards, the blue-stockinged youth vainly striving to squirm nearer to the line, Decker holding for all he was worth.
