such a jam. Oh, I do hope you win!" And Minnie beamed on Dick in a manner that made him blush, for he saw that several were watching them.
"I must go now. It is getting late," said Dick after a little more talk. He turned, to see Sam, Dora and the Laning girls only a few seats away. Dora was looking fully at Minnie Sanderson with wide open eyes and a flush mounting to her cheeks.
"Oh, so you've arrived!" cried Dick cheerily, but his voice had a catch in it. Somehow he felt guilty, he could not tell why.
"Yes, here we are," answered Nellie.
"And what a crowd!" added Grace. Dora said not a word. She had stopped looking at Minnie and her eyes were directed to nothing at all on the football field.
"Well, Dora, are you going to wish me success?" asked Dick, bound to say something.
"Oh, I guess all your lady friends will wish you that," was the answer in a voice that did not seem like Dora's at all.
"Why, what's the matter?" he asked in a low voice meant only for her ears.
"Nothing."
"But there is, Dora."
