Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Larry Pendleton, the captain of the Rexton football team, tries to persuade Dan Harwood, the great quarterback of the Transylvania team, to enter a professional foot race. He is jealous because Edith Livingston seems to favor Danny more than he and knows well that Dan is the mainstay of his team, which is to play Rexton the coming week. Harvey Livingston, Edith's brother, is a somewhat worthless reprobate but is kept more or less straight by Danny. He becomes treasurer of the Transylvania team through the combination of his father's and Dan's influence. Harvey, who is going rapidly to the dogs, takes some of the money entrusted to his care and spends it on a bunch of chorus girls. The next morning, when he is sober, he goes to Dan and confesses what he has done. In order that the brother of the girl he loves shall not fall into disgrace, Dan accepts the proposition to race professionally, although he knows that he will jeopardize his position with his team. Dan insists that the check for the race which he wins, be made out to Harvey Livingston, greatly surprising Thompson, the athletic promoter. Thompson makes out the check as requested and hands it to Dan after the race. The day of the great game between Rexton and Transylvania arrives, Pendleton challenges Dan, saying that he is a professional and he is not allowed to play. Willie Jones, Dan's friend, who suspects that something is wrong about the matter, sets off in his car for the bank and succeeds in getting the check that has been made out to Harvey Livingston. When he brings it back, the whole miserable business is exposed and Dan allowed to take his place on the team for the close of the game. Within a comparatively short time, Dan changes the score from 10 to against Transylvania to 10 to 12, scoring a touchdown a few seconds before the blowing of the whistle, thus saving the game and winning the heart of the girl for whom he made such a sacrifice.
