...from full strength, and disheartened by the fact that they had been held scoreless in the last two major games. Yesterday the sick list rose to a new high to include Crickard, Lockwood, Nevin, Dean, Whitney, Casey and Crane. The first three will be on the bench today with leg injuries; the others have only minor afflictions but all are doubtful material for checking the Crusader's onslaught on Saturday.

...footprints of the one ahead. They carefully keep to one side of the regular, now deadly trail. At dawn the marchers are ready to attack. But the watchdogs have roused the "victims" who join hands and dance to the music of a flute made from a jaguar's leg bone. The music is supposed to make them ferocious as jaguars. As they dance they sing of defiance, contempt, bravery, boasting...
