"Dead ball! Throw wild and cut it short!" came the advice from the seats. Then a sophomore was tried out. But the crowd was becoming highly impatient. "We want Rip! "We demand Rip. Give us Rip or give us chloroform!" came the insistent clamor. "We'll come another day to see the dead ones, if you insist. " Coach Luce looked over at Fred, and nodded.
