Fiction Sports HERO ENTERPRISE Football Adventure Heroic RescueFrank Armstrong Drop KickerCHAPTER I. A NEW ENTERPRISE.On a certain warm afternoon in the early part of July any one passing along the main street of the little summer resort of Seawall might have observed had he chanced to glance seaward a trim sloop riding easily at anchor her milk-white mainsail swaying idly in the scarce-moving breeze. The water was like glass excepting that here and there it was wrinkled for a moment by a puff of wind which passed instantly leaving the mirror-like surface as before. Midway of the sloop's cockpit sat the Ancient Mariner himself nodding. His back was braced against the gunwale and his pipe hung on his chest—a gentle-looking old man with a long grizzled beard taking his siesta as even Nature seemed to be taking hers that afternoon. His toil-worn hand hung over the gunwale and had one been near enough the old man might have been heard to snore softly.CONTENTS OF FRANK ARMSTRONG DROP KICKERA New EnterpriseFailure and a Providential RescueQueen's Transportation CompanyBurton's ArrivalThe Water CarnivalAn Old Rival's StratagemCoals of FireA Swim for LifeSavedProfits of Queen's FerryThe Hazers' WaterlooClass NinesFrank's Football EducationThe Telegraph CompanyFrank Taken to WarwickThe Warwick GameFrank Saves the GameMrs. Bowser's CatIn the Bell TowerA Heavy PenaltyGamma's Desperate TacticsSaved by the WiresEnd of Gamma TauCONTENTS OF FRANK ARMSTRONG AT QUEENSFrank Encounters a BullyAn Afternoon of FootballJimmy Gets in the GameFrank Has a New NameCaptured by the EnemyHazing and the Water CureSchool Spirit and School InfluencesQueen's Meets Barrows at FootballWhat Came of a TumbleFrank Springs a SurpriseA Prospective PupilA Try-out on the TrackLearning to Run the HundredA Mysterious AppearanceFrank Wins Honors on the TrackWarwick Invades Queen'sThe Great Football GameGamma Tau Receives a ShockAn Encounter with the MysteryA Contest at the GymnasiumThe Loss of a RinkA Heroic RescueA Challenge from WarwickA Gift and a TheftThe Ice CarnivalCONTENTS OF FRANK ARMSTRONG AT COLLEGEThe Freshman RushA Brush with the PoliceThe Codfish Creates NewsMaking the ElevenFrank Learns to Tackle the DummyThe Great Freshman BattleA Wreck at the HarborFun at the TheaterA Jump in Baseball and the ResultThe Try-outs at CambridgeA Voyage to LondonThe Codfish Loses HimselfThe Flying Machine to the RescueProgress and a WreckThe Match at Queen's ClubMaking the 'Varsity NineThe Southern TripFootball in Junior YearThe Harvard-Yale GameHow All Things Came Out at Last
