"I am afraid I shall have to dismiss them," he told himself. "Too bad!"
In some manner the story leaked out, and by Sunday noon all the students at Brill knew that the Rovers and Stanley were in disgrace, and in danger of dismissal. A few sided with the boys, but the majority shook their heads.
"They had no business to go off on such a lark," said one of the seniors. "It's a disgrace to the whole college. If they are sent home it will serve them right."
Koswell and Larkspur were in high glee over the success of their plot, and when alone winked at each other and poked each other in the ribs.
"They'll get what's coming to 'em this trip," said Bart Larkspur with a chuckle. "They'll be lucky if they are not sent home."
"And we'll rub it in, too," added Koswell. "You know how those Rovers are dead stuck on those girls at Hope."
"Sure."
"Well, I'll fix it so those girls hear all about this affair."
"Good!" cried Larkspur. "That will be the bitterest dose of all."
"Say," put in Dudd Flockley nervously, "you don't suppose there is any danger of our being found out?"
