PRING, why do you cover me with your green silk? Why do you weave me in your golden nets? I want to slide away in the cold autumn's fog- O, let me slumber the autumn's sleep alone. With rosy fingers you paint your mornings And in far thunder your nights are lost. Your blossom slowly downward drops And more impetuous palpitates the earthly pulse. You take the new returning swallows And throw in air like strings of pearls Much sweeter sound than nightfalls singing, For you have turned the accords of their harp. O, you far nights, O, you far mornings! O, you dream filled young soul, Why so you wither in your blossom so soon? You seed corn filled poppy. Of no avail, you build across the whirling depth, The beam suspensions to the ancient remoteness. In vain you try to lift me up to thee, Your lightness can not bear my heaviness. Vija Peterson INCONSISTENCY OMB tremendous change of mood! Turn tenderness to laughter lewd fSlow in the snow, slow in the snow The footsteps plow in aching holes, Prints in a row, prints in a rowj By a quick glance, under a pause, Emptiness steals without a cause. CGun-metal shy, gun-metal shy, It claws and scrapes the frozen air, Soft winds cry, soft winds cry.J To cover the gap we babble aloud And love shrieks by with the passing cloud. CLife is a role, life is a role. With lines never learned and a prompter deafg Another hole, and another hole.D LOVE OVE brings no joy to the heart For it comes and goes like the wind. Love brings tears to the eyes As the morning brings dew on the red roses Love is like a rose. It blooms for a while, But then it drops its petals And slowly withers away. Love brings sadness to the heart. But if I were not in love, My heart would be as if dead, Dead as a corpse in a grave. Diana Hitt Gertud Wenzel

1 st, BOYS' BASKETBALL The Boys' Basketball team had a schedule of only live games, due to the play, Death Takes A Holiday, influenza and inadequate time in which to practice. The team won only one game and dropped four, three of which were lost by the margin of one, two, and three points respectively. The eight members of this year's team were: Barry Bandler, Steve Shapiro, Govert van Dis, john Cazale, Dick Everett, Fernando Rosich, Playing Manager Pete Stubbins, and Captain Charlie Lord. Much credit is to be given to Koch and Bill who not only coached the team but re- lieved the manpower situation during practices. Without their help and that of the girls at practices, the boys would never have been able to work as a team. Returning players, Barry Bandler, John Cazale, and Steve Shapiro are promising ma- terial for next year's team. 29
