Winning His “Y”
Illustrated in Colors, 12mo, Decorated Cloth Cover, $1.50.
The scene of this story is Yardley Hall, the school made famous in“Double Play” and “Forward Pass!”; and we meet again the manly,self-reliant Dan Vinton, his young friend Gerald Pennimore, and manyothers of the “old boys” whose athletic achievements and other doingshave been so entertainingly chronicled by Mr. Barbour. The new storyis thus slightly connected with its predecessors, but will be fully asinteresting to a boy who has not read them as if it were not.
Double Play
Illustrated in Colors, 12mo, Cloth, $1.50.
Further experiences of Dan Vinton--hero of “Forward Pass!”--at YardleyHall. He becomes in a way the mentor of the millionaire’s son, GeraldPennimore, who enters the school. There is the description of anexciting baseball game, and the stratagem by which the wily coach,Payson, puts some ginger into an overtrained squad and develops from ita winning team will appeal to every boy.
Forward Pass!
Illustrated in Colors, 12mo, Cloth, $1.50.
In his new story, Mr. Barbour returns to the field of his earlier andmore successful stories, such as “The Half-Back,” “Captain of theCrew,” etc. The main interest in “Forward Pass!” centers about the“new” football; the story is, nevertheless, one of preparatory-schoollife and adventures in general. The book contains several illustrationsand a number of diagrams of the “new” football plays. Mr. Barbourconsiders this his best story.
