Nell Saunders is the daughter of an innkeeper in a college town. She is loved by Glen Dale, the quarterback of the college team, and also Pierson, the fullback. Jimmy Cripps, an odd character, is the devoted friend of Nell and is also a great student of military strategy. Nell's father desires her to marry Dale because he is wealthy and a good customer. The girl refuses and is particularly angry because Dale has met and roughly handled Cripps, who is returning from the village with a bunch of Nell's lingerie in a package and which is thrown over the road. An important match is about to be played with the Indians. Dale is discovered drinking and bounced from the team. He offers his services to the Indians and is made a member of the team by disguising himself as an Indian. Jimmy Cripps volunteers to teach the college eleven certain plays which he has learned from his military book, and they win the game. Dale is injured and discovered. The Indian team and Dale are run out of town. The story ends with the winning of a large sum of money by Cripps, which has been bet by Dale, and the reunion of Nell and Pierson.
