VARSITY FOOTBALL No one speaks. We siT There, silenT, while The coaches oTTer lasT biTs oT advice, rough slaps ThaT we'don'T Teel. The Trainers apply bandages, wrap ankles., Someone laughs gueerly. Then we're ouT on The Tield, geTTing used To The ball, limbering up, working ThaT Tunny weakness ouT oT our legs. lT's always ThaT way beTore The game. + 'l' + The whisTlel The ball arching slowly in The air.

We're losT in The exciTemenT oT The game. + 'l' + And This year again we emerged Trom all buT one vic- Torious. We'll never TorgeT The Oak Park game. The Tield was a sea oT mud, and yeT we made a game oT iT. Oak Park scored early, and Then seTTled down To deTensive play. They had a sTrong Team. Time and again our onslaughT was checked by inches when iT seemed we musT score. Then, laTe in The game, while rain-soaked EvansTonians wenT wild wiTh ioy, we crossed The goal and earned a Tie. As a resulT we shared champion- ship honors wiTh Oak Park. 'l' 'l' + We remember, Too, The Tinal game wiTh New Trier, and The cheers Tor our men who wore The orange and blue Tor The lasT Time. CapTain Ed' lvlarTin, l-larry ConsTable, Earl Cook, Bill Dolke, Gene Deck, Benny lvlasak, STan Naidowski-These men our class Takes wiTh iT.
