24 ROUNDUP A Few Words About Jensen Without a doubt the reason that the football team representing our High school this year was so successful was because of the spirit which was instilled into every member of the team by Walter Jensen, who helped coach the team. No man who played under such a man as Mr. Jensen could help but wish to do everything possible to win the championship for his school. Having graduated from the Great Falls High school in 1905 and from the Montana State School of Alines in 1910, and having played on the football teams of both schools, he was in all respects capable ( i rounding a team into championship material. Induced by no other reason except his true loyalty to his school and the burning desire to see the Great Falls High school represented by a football team that would be a credit to it. he spent two hours of his time every afternoon for three months, under all sorts of disagree- able weather and unfavorable conditions for training a team, out on the practice field. Never once during- all practice was he ever heard to complain about the poor training accommodations afforded, nor did he ever do what so many coaches are likely to do, teach some little trick that is illegal and is very difficult for a referee to detect. It can be truthfully said that no coach could ever have been better liked or more greatly admired and respected by his players than Walter Jensen was by the squad of players that represented the Great Falls High school last year. If every student in the G. F. H. S. would only display some of the same loyalty, same spirit, and same enthusiasm that was displayed by Mr. Jensen this year, the Great Falls High school would have a spirit in its student body that could not be surpassed by any school in the country. What ' s the matter with Jensen? He ' s all right. Who ' s all right? Jensen. Who says so? Great Falls High School!
