I V Players Displa Potential and kill As the junior Varsity plays before the varsity at each game, so does it play and train before re- ceiving full pass to glory on the varsity. These players look into the future days when they will attain the cool skill and calmness of an expe- rienced player. All these abilities come through a period of incessant training, practice, and indomitable de- termination, all these come through constant loyalty for Flora. In the end the players have learned there are great rewards! Tony Herman, m a n a g e r, straightens the locker room before assisting the players at a game.
