| Summary | "Making the Nine" by Albertus T. Dudley is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in an American school environment and focuses on the lives of boys navigating their athletic pursuits, particularly baseball. The central character appears to be Philip Poole, a student who is determined to make the baseball team while dealing with the challenges of school life and friendships. The opening portion of the novel introduces us to Philip and his peers, emphasizing their camaraderie and competitive spirit, especially in the context of the school’s athletic events such as football and, later, baseball. As the narrative begins, we witness the playful banter among the boys following a Yale football victory, setting the tone for their lighthearted yet intense rivalry. The dynamics in their relationships are evident as they discuss sports and personal goals, while Melvin, one of the seniors, pushes Phil to try hard for a place on the baseball team despite his initial hesitations. There are themes of ambition, peer influence, and the moral challenges that arise within their tight-knit community, suggesting an exploration of character growth through sportsmanship and friendship.
