ll Hlill E5 C' That Nothing Fears Nowhere is the spirit of youth better exemplified than in the field of sports. Here a spirit, strong and vibrant, is displayed - a spirit that develops a love of just and fair play. The athletic program of Ottawa Hills gives each student a chance to specialize in his favorite sport. He may participate in tennis, track, bowl- ing, badminton, or golf. He also learns to cooperate with other students in games such as football, basketball, volley ball, and field ball. This year the senior boys have re- ceived Commando training three times a week to prepare them for mili- tary work. The Ottawa girls are also preparing themselves for service by practicing the WAAC exercises. Athletics builds strong bodies and strong characters. It strengthens man's code of honor. It teaches him to ac- cept results gracefully, and to be gen- erous. On the field of play the youth of today learns a strong vibrant joy- the joy of achievement. Face uplifted to the sun, here is young America playing, young Amer- ica on her way, strong as a mighty bird. The eagle of the crg- that nothing fears.

When the linal whistle blew, the score was 14 to 0. The first out of town game was played Sep- tember 25 at Holland in a dismal rain.

On the night of October 9 the Indians were drowned out by a powerful Tech team in a ter- rific rain at Houseman Field. All through the first half, the game was fairly even with many long marches being made by the tribe, but Tech came back in the last half of the game to win 14 to O.
