Fast Nine

By the time Elmer Chenowith and his fellow scouts reach the road home, dusk is falling, their fishing strings are heavy, and one of them has lost his cap in the dark.

Along the Sunflower River, the Hickory Ridge boys trade jokes and dream of supper—but talk soon turns to Matt Tubbs of Fairfield, whose baseball games have a habit of ending in trouble. Now Matt has organized a Boy Scout troop of his own, and Elmer hopes the old bully means to play fair at last. With a new challenge brewing between the neighboring towns, the boys must decide whether this rivalry can be more than another fight waiting to happen. Can Matt lead his team by the scout rules he has promised to follow?
