"Tim gets some crazy hunches," Alex said, after a time, "but I don't think he'll lose any points for us—not any more."
"Let him go fish then," Andy cried. "We should worry. How about it, Don?"
Don shook his head slowly. "I'm patrol leader of the Wolves."
"And he's a Wolf scout," Andy nodded thoughtfully. "I see what you mean.
I guess you're right. What are you going to do?"
"Nothing. Maybe by next Friday he'll be over it."
But next Friday found Tim unchanged. He mingled with the other scouts, but from his patrol leader he held aloof.
A Fox scout reported late, and the Foxes lost a half-point. The score read:
