four o'clock
I 'm reformed . Now , here 's the tale : '' Dink , under the influence of the new emotion , made a fairly full confession , merely overlooking the shoes that Flash did not carry over the Princeton goal line , and suppressing that detail of the Foundation House 's supposed contribution , which had lent such a peculiar value to the souvenir crockery set . By four o'clock Butsey White had sufficiently recovered to remember the afternoon baseball match . Ten minutes later Dink , lost in a lapping baseball suit lent by Cheyenne Baxter , re-enforced with safety pins , stationed himself in the outfield behind a catcher 's mitt , for preliminary practice with little Susie Satterly and Beekstein Hall , who was shortsighted and wore glasses . The result of five minutes ' frantic chasing was that Dink , who surprised every one by catching a fly that somehow stuck in his glove , was promoted to centerfield ; Susie Satterly , who had stopped two grounders , took left ; while Beekstein was ignominiously escorted to a far position in rightfield and firmly requested to stop whatever he could with his chest . The Cleve cohorts arrived , thirty strong , like banditti marching to sack a city , openly voicing their derision for the nine occupants of the Green House .
