Sports Brown and Gold will receive the kickoiT! Play ball! Jump Ball! They're off! These are all familiar sounds to the sports fan and the players. There were sports at B-V for everyoneg if not on the interscholastic level, at least on the intramural level. They were an enjoyable outlet for all our extra energywhether on the field, in the bleachers, or on the bench. We enjoyed playing, Win or lose. We'1l never forget the night we trampled Mindszenty's victory signs or the night we sang victory songs all the way home from Notre Dame in Ba- tavia. These things Were loads of fun and the memory of them alfords even greater enjoyment. On the following pages we hope to bring back some of the memories of this Wonderful year. 47
