GRACE LUCAS 1919-1956 A LITTLE STEP AWAY To close the eye, fo fall asleep, To draw a labored breath, To find release from daily cares, In what we know as death. Is this the crowning of a life, The aim or end thereof? = The totaled sum of consciousness, The ripened fruit of love? It cannot be, for works of God Are wrought for nobler ends, And those away continue one Inthe hearts of kin and friends. TYTETETENTORETITET It cannot be, for they live on, A little step away, The soul—The everlasting life, Has found a better day. O. J.

However, this record does not reveal the complete story since the team lost 8 of their games by a score difference of 8 or fewer points. In the Section 16, Class “B” tournament, held at the Potomac State College gymnasium at Keyser, the Fort Ashby Eagles lost their first game to the Potomac Valley Conference champion and tournament favorite, West Virginia School for the Deaf of Romney, by a close score of 55-47. On the following night the Eagles lost to the Elk Garden Stags by a score of 75-58. GARY ISNER JERRY LEASE JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM is ¥ Coach Sayers, Standing in front of group.
