Burne
,
you
know
you
're
secretly
mad
about
her
--
that
's
the
real
trouble
.
"
"
What
can
you
do
,
Burne
?
What
can
you
do
against
Phyllis
?
"
But
Burne
only
shook
his
head
and
muttered
threats
which
consisted
largely
of
the
phrase
:
"
She
'll
see
,
she
'll
see
!
"
The
blithesome
Phyllis
bore
her
twenty-five
summers
gayly
from
the
train
,
but
on
the
platform
a
ghastly
sight
met
her
eyes
.
There
were
Burne
and
Fred
Sloane
arrayed
to
the
last
dot
like
the
lurid
figures
on
college
posters
.
They
had
bought
flaring
suits
with
huge
peg-top
trousers
and
gigantic
padded
shoulders
.
On
their
heads
were
rakish
college
hats
,
pinned
up
in
front
and
sporting
bright
orange-and-black
bands
,
while
from
their
celluloid
collars
blossomed
flaming
orange
ties
.
They
wore
black
arm-bands
with
orange
"
P
's
,
"
and
carried
canes
flying
Princeton
pennants
,
the
effect
completed
by
socks
and
peeping
handkerchiefs
in
the
same
color
motifs
.
On
a
clanking
chain
they
led
a
large
,
angry
tom-cat
,
painted
to
represent
a
tiger
.
A
good
half
of
the
station
crowd
was
already
staring
at
them
,
torn
between
horrified
pity
and
riotous
mirth
,
and
as
Phyllis
,
with
her
svelte
jaw
dropping
,
approached
,
the
pair
bent
over
and
emitted
a
college
cheer
in
loud
,
far-carrying
voices
,
thoughtfully
adding
the
name
"
Phyllis
"
to
the
end
.
She
was
vociferously
greeted
and
escorted
enthusiastically
across
the
campus
,
followed
by
half
a
hundred
village
urchins
--
to
the
stifled
laughter
of
hundreds
of
alumni
and
visitors
,
half
of
whom
had
no
idea
that
this
was
a
practical
joke
,
but
thought
that
Burne
and
Fred
were
two
varsity
sports
showing
their
girl
a
collegiate
time
.
Phyllis
's
feelings
as
she
was
paraded
by
the
Harvard
and
Princeton
stands
,
where
sat
dozens
of
her
former
devotees
,
can
be
imagined
.
She
tried
to
walk
a
little
ahead
,
she
tried
to
walk
a
little
behind
--
but
they
stayed
close
,
that
there
should
be
no
doubt
whom
she
was
with
,
talking
in
loud
voices
of
their
friends
on
the
football
team
,
until
she
could
almost
hear
her
acquaintances
whispering
:
"
Phyllis
Styles
must
be
awfully
hard
up
to
have
to
come
with
those
two
.
"
That
had
been
Burne
,
dynamically
humorous
,
fundamentally
serious
.
From
that
root
had
blossomed
the
energy
that
he
was
now
trying
to
orient
with
progress
...
