'avg Wins pile up, spirits soar There's a time to exercise the brawn as well as the brain, and that's when our athletic teams take the field amid cheering fans. End runs, line drives, churning water . . . signal that the boys are in action. All during the school year we turn out to support our teams, at home and away. There is something catching about the frenzy created during a close game. It is contagion that follows us far from the fields of play. We are sitting high when the teams are riding a winning streak, sunk into bleak despair when they are losing . . . and we enjoy every minute of it. Yet, there is more to it than just playing the game. Some of us grow muscles, others increase their cheering ca- pacity, but all are learning sportsmanship, the spirit of competition, and how to face conliicts and decision. It is an education . . . in living. And it is fun. 79
