Summary "The Boys of Columbia High on the Ice: Or Out for the Hockey Championship" by Graham B. Forbes is a children's sports novel written in the early 20th century. It follows the boys of Columbia High, particularly Frank Allen and Lanky Wallace, as they engage in various athletic competitions, specifically hockey, and face off against rival schools. The story is filled with themes of friendship, rivalry, and sporting spirit, as the main characters prepare for a significant hockey match. At the start of the story, Frank and Lanky are eager to challenge the Clifford High hockey team after a series of athletic successes. In a spirited moment, they quickly decide to take Lanky's newly built ice-boat, the "Humming Bird", for a spin up the Harrapin River, feeling the thrill of the crisp winter air. However, their adventure is soon marked by a collision with a rival team member's boat, revealing tensions and competitive rivalries. The opening portion sets the stage for the challenges they will face, both in their sportsmanship and in dealing with the antagonistic Lef Seller, who embodies the competitive spirit of their rivals. As the plot unfolds, the reader becomes drawn into their quest for victory, camaraderie, and the dangers of rivalry. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
