When Joe Smith went to the aid of three boys lost in a blizzard on Snow Mountain, it was to make a good friend and a bitter enemy. For when Joe became a freshman at Centerville University, it was Mark Holliday, star hockey player, who taught him the game - and it was Thad Banks, reporter on the college paper, who made Joe the laughing stock of the college. And of course, there was the mystery of Joe's identity - for Joe was an orphan who had never known his parents.
How Joe won out against Thad to become a college here, and how he found his family, is an exciting story everyone will love. And sports fans will thrill to Jack Wrights' electrifying descriptions of hockey games as the Centerville squad battles its way to a championship.
