Gee, I couldn't tell you what happened next.

All I know is, I heard my Scout Handbook go kerflop on the floor and Vic Norris of the Ravens grabbed the Silver Fox emblem right out of my hand and began waving it.

All of a sudden I saw Westy and he didn't say anything only put his arm around my shoulder and he started to say something and, oh, I don't know, he just couldn't.

Then I heard a fellow asking him what was the matter, because he was husky, kind of, and his eyes shiny-you know.

And he said he had a cold.
