Left Tackle Thayer

CHAPTER XIV
24/28

Amy and Clint and Chase squirmed to the front of the crowd where Tracey Black was wildly imploring the fellows to "Keep back of the line, please! Don't get on the field, fellows!" Chambers put in a new left half and Coach Robey sent Gafferty in for Hall.

The pigskin was on the Chambers twelve yards now and Carmine and Captain Innes went back and put their heads together.

Then Harris joined them and the crowd along the edge of the field set up a demand for a touchdown.

"We don't want a field-goal, Innes! We want a touchdown! Give us a touchdown! Touchdown! Touchdown!" But Jack Innes apparently thought a field-goal with its accompanying three points was sufficient to try for, for Harris walked slowly back to kicking position and spread his long arms out.
