N. C. Allen Wood, Cotton, is a handy man in any position.. His best game was at Wabash where he capably filled Capt. Francis' place. Russell Bratton, Herb, is almost as good at playing basketball as he is playing football. He has two more years. Donel Smith takes care of the floor guard position in great style. He has three more years to prove his ability. Shirley Shake is one of the best forwards of the State. Although he was somewhat handicapped by a slight injury he proved himself to be a very valuable man. Paul Franklin, Sap, is one of the best pivot men of the State. He seldom fails to get the tip-off. Floyd Reeves, Ginger, has a record of making more noise as well as more baskets than any men on the squad. Orville Reeves is one of C. N. C.'s lighting freshman who can pass and dribble well and shoot when necessary. . Eighty-Four 7' m5 I x fl f n fi D. were p interes result + manen Eighly

After a few days of coaching under the direction of Coach Cook the squad was considerably reduced and the favored ones remained on the varsity squad for the season. The record of the season shows that the War- riors won nine out of seventeen games and it may be said that they enjoyed a very successful season.

C. a series of baseball games were played between the various classes of the institution. A great deal of interest was shown and much good baseball material was discovered. As a result of these games the Director of Athletics hopes to make baseball a per- manent part of the athletic program of Central Normal College. THE MEASUREOF A MAN The test of a man is the fight he makes, - The grit that he daily showsg The way that he stands on his feet, and takes Fate's numerous bumps and blows. The crowd can smile when there's naught to fear, And nothing his progress barsg But it takes a man to stand up and cheer, While some other fellow stars. It isn't the Victory, after all, But the fight that a man makes, The man, who, driven against the wall, Still stands erect, and takes The blows of fate, with his head held high, Bleeding and bruised and pale. Is the man who'll win in the by and by, For he isn't afraid to fail. It's the bumps we take, and the jolts we get, Q And the shock that our courage stands, The hours of sorrow and vain regret, And the prize that escapes our hands, That test our mettle, and prove our worth 5 It isn't the blows we deal, But the blows we take on this good old earth Which prove that life is real.
