Julia Crosby, crossing in front of Grace, managed slyly to thrust one foot forward.

Grace tripped and fell to the floor, twisting one leg under her.

The ball rolled on, and was caught by the enemy, who threw it to goal just as the whistle sounded for the last time.
The juniors had won.

The score stood 17 to 2 in their favor.

The scorer attempted to announce it, but her voice was lost in the noisy yells of the junior class in the gallery.
The fact that Grace Harlowe still sat on the gymnasium floor passed for a moment unnoticed.
