[Grace Harlowe’s Sophomore Year at High School by Jessie Graham Flower]@TWC D-Link bookGrace Harlowe’s Sophomore Year at High School CHAPTER VI 1/30
THE DEEPEST POSSIBLE DISGRACE A feeling of depression swept over Grace Harlowe as she looked out the window the next morning.
The rain was falling heavily and the skies were sullen and gray. "What a miserable day for the game," was her first thought.
"I do hope the rain won't keep people away.
This weather is enough to discourage any one." All morning she watched anxiously for the clouds to lift, going from window to door until her mother told her to stop fretting about the weather and save her strength for the coming game. The game was set for two o'clock, but at one, Grace put on her raincoat and set out for the High School.
She knew she was early, but she felt that she couldn't stay in the house a minute longer. One by one the sophomore team and its substitutes assembled, but the rain had dampened their spirits and the enthusiasm of the past few days had left them. Grace looked worried, as she noticed how listless her players seemed.
