Summary:
Bill is an intensely competitive boy who thinks "winning is the only thing that really counts." He can't understand why others enjoy themselves jumping rope, roller skating, and just playing around. As he helps an inept friend learn to handle a basketball, he appears to be changing his attitude. Maybe, just maybe, there is something more to physical activity than winning. In the end, however, he remains true to form when he says, "I guess those activities are all right as long as you're the best."
