"Darry, we've come in to tell you that we believe that you and your erratic roommate are going to save a desperate situation for us," resumed the captain of the Navy team.

" "Are you afraid of the Army, Darry?" demanded Hepson.

" "Would you be willing to play on the same team with him, Darry?" pursued Midshipman Hepson.

"Hurl little Darry in!" yelled someone hoarsely in a momentary lull in the noise.

"Darryoh, Darry!" "One more play and over the line!" "You've got the elephants going at last.

"I'd like you to try the kick for goal, Darry, but I don't know," called Hepson in his ear.

" "What are you going to do to-night, Darry?"

"Just about as big a muff as Darry," Dan returned dryly.

Darry, are you in shape, now, to attend to this matter from your point of view?" "Quite," nodded Dave, who had about succeeded in stanching the flow of blood from his injured nose.

"So Darry converted you, did he?" laughed Joyce.

"Bully for Darry.

"That was like good old Darry again," remarked Farley proudly.

"No fellow has a warmer temper than Darry when he's aroused to righteous anger, but no fellow has a more generous temper at all times.

" "Let's go down and jump in on Darry, all hands!"

"Darry has always been somewhat the leader of the class, ever since the fellows began to find him out, back in the first year here.

"Darry won't lead us into any trouble!"

"Our Darry in that!" gasped Farley, as the squad went by.

Darry and Dalzell!

"Darry, don't let anyone trim you for what you didn't do," begged Midshipman Farley.

"Stand up for your own rights, Darry.

" "But we can't lose you from the brigade, Darry," pleaded Farley hoarsely.
