LEAVES Like the tiny newborn infant Are the tender leaves of spring- time, Are the light green leaves of springtime, ' Vlfhen from bud they make their breaking. Like the strength and hope of man- hood Are the strong, dark leaves of summer, Are the shady leaves of summer, Vl hen in joy they greet the sun- shine. Like the last weak stand of old age Are the wrinkled leaves of autumn, Are the brown seared leaves of autumn, When in pride they flush with mem'ries. Thus the leaves of spring and sum- mer, And of autumn, natures turning, Bring to mind the three great sea- sons Through which man goes in his lifetime. -Elizabeth Bolt. OCTOBER DAYS Esther Ilolmcm, Low 7 Its The The apple trees are bending down, Pan plays his pipe, The little birds in all the trees Are harvest time, corn is ripe, sing sweetest melodies, The caterpillar spins cocoon, It's harvest moon. OLD SHIPS In days gone by they ploughed the seas, VVith mastheads high and spread- ing sail, But now in times and days like these, A They victims lie of wind and gale. Here in the blackened mud they rot, lVith drooping shroud and gaping seam, Their useful days have men forgot, And round them Seagulls wheel and scream. And men grow old and youth for- gets The service rendered in the past, They wait the end with vain re- grets, Like old ships come to rest at last. -lllarshall Ilibbard. DREAMS Vfhen my ship eomes into the har- bor. All gleaming in purple and gold, VVhen my dream ship enters the harbor VVith my dreams all safe in the holdg Then I'll board her and sail on the wide seas For a beautiful endless day, And there'll be no C211'CS that will bind me And there'll be no pain in my play. But I'll laugh and the waves will laugh with me, !Xnd the silver sails echo our mirth, Tossed along by the billowing ocean, 1 shall sail to the ends of the earth -T-Rosalie Runyon.

FREMONT GAME Matching her ability and fight against Fremont's ability, fight, and weight, University found the East Oakland beef a trifle too much to overcome and went down gamely to a 21-14 defeat in her first league game of the season. Despite the heroic efforts of the Cubs on the defense, the Green and Gold squad plunged and ran their way to a second-half victory. It was a case of the team that was behind plugging away till they got in front, and Fremont had last plug. The Tigers scored first, but failed to convert. Desperate play on the part of Uni soon gave the latter a 7-6 lead. Once again Fremont came from behind, and failing to convert, led 12-7 . The Cubs in turn overtook this lead and at the end of the first half were holding the fort with a 14-12 score in their favor. The last half, however, found Fremont using weight to good advantage, and had it not been for the particularly fine work of Dana Long at backing up the line, the resulting score might have been even larger. Johnny Donohue at end featured the playing of the line. AVVAKE AT LAST QContinued from Page 105 ing the hopes of our officers for a great crowd. At the first fall of rain, it was predicted that not more than eight hundred people would attend the production, a thing that has always happened in the past Whenever a performance had been given on a rainy night. Ilowever, the event had been so thoroughly advertised by Robert Perry, com- CUB TRACKS SPORTS After an abscence of two years, O.A.L. swimming came back into the pubic eye on September 7 and resulted in the flashy Roosevelt paddlers taking the first league title in the annuals of the Teddy school.

The individual star of the close meet was Don lVIcPherson, speedy Roughrider captain, who swam two smashing laps in the decisive relay, placed first in the fifty yard dash, and finished third in the high div- ing- Bob Westphal was another of the crack Crimson paddlers who had a great deal to do with the vic- tory of his team. Leslie hlorgan, husky ltlechanic, was the high point man, scoring 10 of MicCJlymonds' 13 points.
