i tTlOM tvtry direction, people
1 stresmed toward the great
' Tech stadium. It mi like Pil
grimage, with the huge concrete
horieihoe u their mecea.
Tommy Peters, leaning upon hli
megaphone, atared up at the
stands. They'll hit 75,000 fure
today," ha remarked to an as
ttitant , Suddenly hli eyea froze on a
apot alx or aeven rowa above him.
There (at Rocco Petrone! Tommy
dropped hU megaphone. Take
over tlU I get back!" he yelled,
and daihed lor the Tech dressing
rooms. .
There waa still SO minute be
fore the klckoff. It was bare
chance, but Rocco Petrone might
be able to lead them to Joan and
Dan. Tommy swore excitedly as
he raced to tell Bill Slocum.
He raced across the running
track. Just as he approached the
gate on the other side ot the field
he almost stumbled from shock.
San Webber and Joan Johnson,
escorted by three policemen, were
being rushed Into the stadium.
Tommy shrieked and dashed
toward them.
"No time for talk now," Dan
howled happily. 'Gotta get
dressed."
He hurried toward the tunnel
leading to the dressing rooms, sud
denly stopped, and ran back to
Joan. He grasped her shoulders,
his eyes sparkling.
"ThtsU have to do imtU later."
He kissed her hastily and dashed
off again.
Tommy howled and threw his
arms around Joan. He shrieked in
her ear but she hardly noticed.
Her eyes swam with happiness as
she watched Dart disappear into
the tunnel.
' "Hey, map out of It . . . wake
uol" Tommy Pleaded. "What ... I
tin . 1.11
ttjruua ... i. w inuiij uw awn la
thing or F1I Data outl"
She told him as much as she
could in rush of words. It dldnl
occur to her that she ought to be
besting now. This was no time for
convalescence. She'd call her
father just as soon as she could
get to phone.
; Tommy stopped short "Tell me
... was there guy named
stocco T"
. "Rocco?" she echoed. "Yes, but
bow did you . . . t"
"Wait here," he ordered. "Dont
cross the field yetl"
a a
'. had there been such a
1 scene in the Tech dressing
room. Tears actually flooded Bill
Blocum's eyes as ha smothered
Dan in his arms. Joe Donchek
danced around in his stocking feel
and howled In native Slav. They
til acted like a bunch of Cc
manehes, hurling helmets into the
Sir in their delirium.
It took San just one minute to
convince Slocum he was strong
tnough to play. Slocum slapped
him on the back and shoved him
toward his locker. .
Keith came over and embraced
him. "Gee, it's swell to have you
back, Danny boy."
Thanks, pal. We're gonna take
these guys, aren't we? Any new
Stuff?"
"Very little," Keith informed
him. "We'll steer you on one new
formation . . . and you know all
the old stuff."
Dan felt like telling-him that
wasn't all he knew, but let Keith
End out for himself, he figured.
a
'THE public address system had
. A broken the news about Dan
and Joan, and when the Tech
quad raced onto the field, a bed
im of sound arose.
"Get yourself warmed up good,"
Johnny White advised. "You're
probably a little soft and this is
gonna be murder."
He wasn't far from right Bar-
hey Hughes won the toss and
chose to kick off. The referee blew
- the whistle, the Tech line moved
forward, and Tony Mangano sent
the ball end over end down to
the five. '
There was a roar as Hal For
rest took it, moved in behind his
Interference and started up field
under 4 full head of steam. There
Jvaa a flash of maroon as Joe
Donchek, chortling like a kid with
k new toy, smashed in from the
tide and brought him down on
the 14.
, Joe got up chattering furiously.
fOkay, Danny boy . . . welcome
home , , . that on was for you
f . . let's get em . . . let's get
em, Danny boy!"
The rest of them took up the
cue as they lined up. Dan almost
had to fight to keep the tears
back. He knew how they felt 1
Pitt went into a single wing to
mo rigni. ine Teen line shifted
put with them. Dan nosed up Just
behind his tackle when the ball
Was snapped, and was right in his
diagnosis. They thundered towsrd
an opening but Dan knifed
through and dropped the runner
on the line of scrimmage.
Marty Gallagher helped Dan to
bis feet I'l hoped you'd make the
nrst one ... I hoped you
would!"
The first few exchanges of
downs indicated what was to
come. Theirs was to be a defen
sive battle. They had to stop For
rest and McCarroll and wait for
break ot their own.
"No use springing much till we
get a real opportunity," Tommy
panted in their first timeout . . .
"Just hold 'em . . . make 'em
punt on third down if we can
. . we cant take this pound
ing long."
But the mighty Pitt forward
wall slowly pushed them back.
Dan and Tony Mangano played up
close, plugging gaps desperately.
The Panthers bruited their way
down to the Tech 30. First and
10. The Pitt quarter took the ball
from center . . . spun. Hank
Butler, Tech tackle, smashed in
and was mousetrapped beauti
fully. Hal Forrest took the ball
from the spinning quarterback
and sailed through the hole for
five yards.
Forrest pounded for two more
before Dan and Marty Gallagher
ganged him.
Pitt gave it to McCarroll on a
deep reverse and the crowd stood
up with a roar. The Panther
blockers were carrying out their
assignments with mechanical per
fection. Barney Hughes was rid
den out by a wave of interferers
and McCarroll cut inside with
plenty to spare.
Out ot the corner of his eye
Dan saw Marty Gallagher go
down in a heap and he knew he
was the last one on that side of
the line who had a chance to stop
the flying Pitt ball carrier.
He pounded across the field and
trapped McCarroll on the five-garlneJrhecofRrorTier
TfeTunSeTTorwardtonakethe
tackle and was hit at the same
Ume by the Pitt end completing
His downfleld blocking chore.
Desperately Dan flung his out
stretched hand toward MeCsr
roll's leg . , . barely succeeded
In tripping him as he went down.
Dan hit the turf hard. A sharp,
piercing pain shot through his
hand at the impact Without look
ing at it, Dan knew he had re
broken the bone.
