The first one to speak looked a little      . “My dear friends and judges,” he said loudly, “this is an unfair         !

  We had got to the car. “Don’t look for ideal competition conditions,” I said. “        the unfair and come out a winner!”
  I looked back as I drove away and saw him smile and wave, and I knew he would do as I said.
