26 THE INKWICLL THE PASSING OF ARTHUR All ruin, land of Britain art thou come! No Arthur now, nor knights of Table Round To help aflicted men, so helpless now. No judgment for the wicked and not one Good knight to win a lady's hand so fair. Honest people plucked and plundered, killed! By robber bands who ride from town to town In crumbling armor dressed, which once belonged To brafve and honored knights who won their fame In noble battles. One band will reach the city Camelot with its magic and its mist. W'hich clothes the streets of Arthur's taintless city. They will enter, kill the keeper of the gate And rush along the old and weakened streets When lo, a rumbling sound will rise from out The palace, which now stands alone in holiness. The other castles shake and fall to dust But Arthur 'll stand surrounded, in the mist, The pain and all the failure in his e- es And cling to this one shrine of greatest purity. Another crash, and out the heavy mist A white hand rise which holds a gleaming sword Excalibur! Another thunderous crash- The magic mist thickens-clears away. Gone is the mighty castle of the King. 0'er the horizon rifver floats the mist And disappears into the watery distance. Gone is the King and all his love. -MARX' Lunwxcx

Z8 T H IC IN lx XV IC l. I. ATHLETICS The outstanding sports this year at Cape lway were Football and Track. ln Football, the Bluenblack bruised, blasted and otherwise clubbed into sub- mission such worthy opponents as Had- don Heights, Palmyra, and VVoodstown. Hammonton was also laid by the heels. However, a paper really should present both sides, so we remind ourselves of de- feat at the hands of Toms River, Had- donfield, and alas, Wildwood. Cape iVIayans claim this last to be a Huke. V. ildwoodians look wise when the sub- ject is broaehed. VVe choose to remain silent on this matter or else point blithe- ly to the 0-0 tie with Middle. ln Track, we can honestly and with pride point out our County and South jersey Champions, a repetition of last year's record. However, this last year's record has been augmented by the Fresh- men. These coming athletes brought home the Freshmen trophy at the Atlan- tic City Relays. Besides this, the team brought hack eight medals. Nunc ap- plauditel CNow applaud.j Basketball and Baseball were weak sports this year but we look forward to the strong teams to come from the ver- satile underclassmen.
