"That's right! that's right!"
"I'll have to take time to think it over."
"We have a few soph scalps," grinned Rattleton, pointing to a number of caps with which the walls were decorated, all of which had been snatched from the heads of sophomores. "Have the rest of you fellows done as well?"
"I have lost two," confessed Dan Dorman. "They seem to single me out as easy fruit."
"And haven't you made an attempt to get one in return?" asked Bandy Robinson.
"I haven't had a good chance."
"If you wait for a good chance you'll never get a scalp. You must snatch 'em whenever you can."
"By Jove!" laughed Frank, "this talk about scalps has given me an idea."
"Let's have it!" exclaimed several of the boys in unison.
"Not now," he said. "Wait till I have perfected it."
