These letters are the highest possible award to any athlete. They represent more to him than any other material award. The letter in itself is of practically no value for the cost is but eight cents apiece. But the things for which they stand can not be measured in terms of money. These letters mean hours of hard trainingg they stand for days of constant work and grind in sim- shine or in raing they represent great sacrifices in order to keep in perfect physical conditiong they are the reward for pains, humps and all bodily ailments during the seasong they recall the pangs of defeat 4.15, of their team or the joy of victory which goes with every winning gameg they represent development in character that teaches them to play the game fair and treat the opponent as a friendg and lastly they prove that the wearer was loyal to himself, his school and his team. It was loyalty that prompted him to go out for the team and it was loyalty that gave him the courage to stick to the task until it was done. The purple H should be a reward that ought to inspire every student to try and secure one. No one, but the person who gets a letter, knows the thrill that accompanies it or that pride that comes from wearing it. When all other school Wants are forgotten the letter will act as a reminder of the happy days spent in High School. G. V. G., '27.
