64 De Padua -- Ashland Game 1941 T'was the 15th of Jhnuary, I know you all remember, That held as much excitement, As the 25th of December. Let's go back again and view, The game that's for the books, And watch the teams both confident, Dribble--shoot--try hooks. The whistle sounds--the game is on, The tenseness issupreme, As Anderson tips the ball, To Innes, hear us scream. With steady hands they pass the ball, The team work and precision Is ourstanding in the game, But OH! there's a collision. You're right its a jump ball, And Ashland gets the tip, But Trush gets a free throw, A Purgolder tried to trip. Trush stands before the basket, And says a silent prayer, To our patron St. Anthonv. Not to forget he's there. He shoots and as it clears the net, The crowd gives out a shout, And now the game again proceeds, With De Padua's win enroute. Mo Auliffe intercepts a pass, And dribbles down to score, And all the gym is in a din, That's heard from top to floor. Ashland's planning-playing a nice game, Both teams are out to win. And the agressors sink a basket, Which gives our Team new vinn. The score is getting plenty close, As fourth period draws near, The buckets swish in left and right, Both teams have much to fear. Goose is at the free throw line, The foul is known as hacking, He shoots--it hits the rim--and in, Our team has nothin lacking. With closing minutes drawing near, The score is almost tie, Here Ashland gets a free throw, It's goodt 0H ME! OH MY!! A so-called over time is called, Three minutes more of fight, The Bruin's on the floor again, To show their mighty might.

Hugo, rather small but quick, When fighting's in the middle, And his height just goes to show, It's no disgrace to be little. Bill Innes so dependable, .Sinks the ball to score, And again the Bruin's show, De Padua's might once more. The whistle sounds--the game is won, The joy of victory swells, Congratulations to the team, Is shown by rahs and yells. The Ashland team shows sportsmanship, Prove worthy of their name, By congratulating the team, With Nice game, fellows, nice game. And De Padua's student body, And the faculty as well, Say, we're proud of our team. And Nice game, fellows, it was swell. Virginia Paiment 41.
