THE REDWOOD. 2H Three! nine! four! five! the quarter yelled — In Buckler ' s arms rhe ball was held, By fifteen ards tlie gain as swelled, Aiiil nenrer seenjed ; 3ctory. ] And once again the signal ' s given. Wild shouts of anguish strike, gainst heaven, ] But onward moved the bold eleven, Adown the field for victory. ; At length there came a change in play, And Berkeley seemed to have the day, ' The Red and White appeared to SAvay, The Freshmen struggled hopefully. i On Berkeley smiled not Fortune then, To score they tried, again, again ; ■ But Santa Clara ' s sturdy men Repelled them — Oh so manfully! They fought like warriors of old, ] Against the men of Blue and Gold, I They tried — nor failed they still to hold The mighty men of Berkeley. The score was to they say. On neither side did victory stay. I But who can e ' er forget that day And all its wondrous bravery? And homeward came the college guys, ] Not with the pig-skin as their prize, i But back and head and arms and eyes ' Were smarting — oh how dreadfully ! E.L. KIRK, ' 05.

22 THE REDWOOD. | i THE CHAMPIONS OF THE RED AND WHITE, All day within the classic shades Of Berkeley ' s mighty colonnades, In hall and class-room smiling maids Await the pig-skin revelry. ; Upon the campus far below, The warriors clad from top to toe » i In mud-stained guise await the foe, i With all their inborn chivalry. | Wild shouts of triumph hit the sky — 5 A thousand rooters standing by - , ' To urge them on to do or die ' To gain the wished-for victory. But Berkeley saw another sight, ' When from the gym — from left and rights — ; The champions of the Red and White j Marched to their places anxiously. I 1 The long-desired whistle blew, j High in the air the pig-skin flew, i And Thomas Feeney, all men knew, Was there with all his trickery. ■ He caught the ball and down the field, ) With heart to dare and hand to wield, ) And round him ran a living shield Of Santa Clarans — daringly ! I I Ten yards were gained ; they hit the ground, T: e Berkeley men stood wondering ' round, ; When from the young Magee a sound Aroused them to activity.

The long- felt desire of the students of Santa Clara College for a college magazine resulted a feAv weeks ago in a movement to- wards its establishment. The laudable ambition was encouraged by the Faculty and permission was granted for the publication of a private chronicle of college doings with specimens of college work, to be circulated, however, only among the students and their friends. The board of editors selected at once set to work, and the result of their labors is the present modest effort — the first number of The Redwood. ' ' Whether the Redwood,, will attain the success and popu- larity of the Owl of former days remains to be seen, but if en- thusiasm on the part of the students and the earnest, conscien- tious labor of the editors can contribute to its success, it will not be a total failure, in spite of the difficulties attending the re- suscitation of a journal long disestablished. Naturally, we can not expect to leap to perfection at the out- set, so that those who might feel disposed to dissect and criticize adversely must bear in mind this fact, and the nature of our magazine, which, though it will endeavor to maintain as high a literary standard as possible, is a private publication of college
