But no sooner is he in the car when steel handcuffs are flipped on him and he is soon tied hand and foot Next thing Sammy knows he is _ taken for a ride, for quite a while, and Delie (who of course is the ajpductressj don’t say a word, she just keeps driving. Finally Delie stops the car five hours later and leads Sammy into a room in a small Philadelphia- hotel. Delie shoyes Sammy in the 'corner of the room and takes off—back to State. A week later Delie drives down to see Sammy again. Sam . my is pretty weak by now (what with no food and water for a week) so Delie unties him and gives him a hoagy. He gulps it and then asks Delie what's up. “Well, Sammy,” Delie. says, “It’s like this. You’ve been here a week .now. We played the big game with Michigan and lost, so you’re kicked off the team and, of course, without that money, - you can’t keep in school.” She throws Sammy, another hoagy. “So don’t worry,” Del i _e re assures him. “I’ve got everything fixed—l got you signed up with a pro team. After all, Sammy, only a square plays for kicks any more—it’s the money that counts. So what do you say?” Sammy shakes his head yes and smiles. Delie tosses him another hoagy. “One thing, though, Sammy. You’ll have to get your hair cut. Your crew cut has -grown long while you were here.
