SPCRTS The struggle to achieve, to excel, and in- deed, to survive was never-ending, the fields of battle extended from cluttered classrooms to rectangles of grass axnd earth, criss-crossed with white lines and bounded by bleachers and goal posts. Here was rno- mentary escape from the hectic academic routine. To sweat, to block and tackle, to run until your head throbbed and your legs ached was a most welcome and won- derful relief. Our education does not proceed exclu- sively in our heads. The academic attack to it can only teach certain things, and there are lessons to be learned only in the doing. Again, it is not our minds alone which must be strengthened. Health is a very basic item in society, and must be kept, and used. So Webb's athletic program is designed to provide everyone a modicum of physical education, plus as much else as possible. With determination the in- tramural teams operated around the year in major sports, giving the least confident not only exercise, but also in- struction and team plby. The pace was quicker in the C, B, and JV squads of all sports, which marked the iump into interscholastic activity, and served as training grounds for next year's Varsity. The A's greeted the men who were left, shaping them to uphold the Gaul name against a largely hostile world of'sport. Practice and games continued, in spite of rain, and construction. No sports year can be fully successful, or at least, the instances are few, and the obiect, to win TOO per cent of the time was not, uh, bagged. But someone must have said sometime, Anyone who plays only to win, should not play at all. The point of playing cannot be iust to win, but to play. This is the learning process. From the process, we learned, because we are here to learn. It took skill to win, and guts to lose, but there was a fair mixing. The dreams were the same: to play hard, to win. The playing was good. If this was Soccer's year to learn, Football turned in a one-loss per- formance in a busy schedule. So it went . . . things evened out and were history, and the important purposes-the real goals of making men-were attained as the players achieved them.
