“Oh, there you go again!” cried Bert Wilson. “Can’t you do anything but ask questions, Why?”
“Of course I can, but I want to know what’s going to happen to us.”
“There can’t much more happen than has happened already,” said Lew Bentfield, grimly.
“That’s right,” agreed Tom.
“They will probably suspend us until we give in,” come from Jack.
“What of it?” asked Tom.
“Nothing, only if we’re suspended we can’t go to any lectures or recitations, and we’ll fall behind in our work, and be conditioned when this thing is over. That means we may lose a year.”
“Nonsense!” exclaimed Tom. “Besides, we agreed to stick this thing out.”
