GREEN HAT, THE TROUBLE-STARTER Dan, whispered Dave Darrin, Ensign, United States Navy, to his chum and brother officer, do you see that fellow with the green Alpine hat and the green vest? Yes, nodded Dan Dalzell. Watch him. Why? He's a powerful brute, and it looks as though he's spoiling for a fight. You are not going to oblige him, are you? asked Dalzell in a whisper, betraying surprise. Nothing like it, Darrin responded disgustedly. Danny Grin, don't you credit me with more sense than that? Do you imagine I'd engage in a fight in a place like this? Then why are you interested in what the fellow might do? demanded Ensign Dan. Because I think there is going to be a lively time here. That fellow under the Alpine hat is equal to at least four of these spindling Spanish waiters. There is going to be trouble within four minutes, or I'm a poor guesser. Just let Mr. Green Hat start something, chuckled Ensign Dalzell in an undertone. "There are plenty of stalwart British soldiers here, and 'Tommy Atkins' never has been known to be averse to a good fair fight
