IIS The l,f1ff1yf'lI1r 0111: A GLIMPSE AT TI-IE YEAR'S SPORTS INAUSPICIOUS I+'OOTl5Al1L SEASON AVING the punch when they lacked the breaks and lacking the punch when they got the breaks makes the story of l1afayette's 1513-1 football warriors a sad tale, for it is the story of three triumphs and six defeats. Opening the season with Chris- tian Brothers on October 6, the 1 ' Green and Gray suffered a 13-0 de- feat, after holding the Eagles to a scoreless tie in the first three per- iods of the game. In one of the most sensational, fascinating, hard- fought games of the season, Lafayette defeated the Savannah Savages 3-0 on October 14. We won by a drop-kick. Out to revenge last year's beating, Central bested Lafayette on October 21. After the Sham- rocks had fought them to a standstill in the first half, the Indians took to the air wherein they netted two touchdowns. Hard fighting and deceptive plays paved the way for our 12-8 triumph over Trenton October 27. Hurling long passes for three touchdowns and scoring two more - X on length runs, the Shamrocks swept to a 31-O victory over Mary- - 'L' ville November 14. The big, powerful Bears of NVilliam Chrisman, Independence, crushed the pluoky Shamrocks in a hard battle on November 11, defeating them 13-0. Still weak from their previous defeat, the Green and Gray was bested 20-0 by Hamburg, Iowa, on November 17. Weis it a jinx? The Shamrocks wondered, for, on November 24, our team succumbed to a 27-0 defeat at the hands of Excelsior Springs Tigers. Tackling hard, using their heads, and playing their best all-around game of the season, the Shamrocks were bested 13-0, on November 31 by Benton. The Cardinals intercepted two passes in the last three minutes of play and scored two touchdowns. IEASKETISALI. SEASON lS GOOD TRIVING to maintain the standard set by last year's squad. the 151334 Knights of liasketball fought through a fiftes-n-game schedule, scoring nine victories and suffering only six defeats. The Shamroeks entered both the Savannah and city tournaments but placed in neither. The team was made up largely of sophomores, there- fore, we have hopes of a great season next year. The results of this year's games are as follows: Dee. 16-Lafayette . . . 2-l Uanieron . . .

Part of this act provides for the Reserve Officers Training Corps, the senior units in praetieally all colleges and universities, and the junior units in most of the high schools. The R-. O. T. C. Unit at Lafayette comprises one company, known as Company H , This company has had an eventful year and has hopes of becoming an Honor School, a designation given by the lieadquarters at Omaha at the annual in- spection of units throughout the Middle West. Company HH sponsors two military organiza- tions, the R-ifle Team and the Clip and Cartridge Honor Society. The Rifle Team entered the Hearst Trophy Match this year but failed to place. The Clip and Cartridge was more active than in any previous year. Besides giving advanced military training, it. held three successful parties. R. O. T. C. offers a splendid opportunity for the development of better citizenship. Its mission in high schools is to awaken in the student appre- ciation of the obligations of citizenship, to prc- pare him to discharge his duties as a citizen, and to qualify him as a military leader. It is expected that the enrollment for Lafayette will be one hundred or more next year. HUR-RAII FOR THE GIRLS HE Girls' Athletic Association started out with a bang when a great many new mem- bers were initiated into the elub at the beginning of the school term. A hike to 1Vyeth hill and a big feed were the events of the day. Many interesting sports filled the year's pro- gram. A soccer tournament resulted in a tie be- tween seniors and juniors. Next came volleyball, with great rivalry among the three teams. Per- haps tlie major sport was basketball. A Round Robin Tournament was held with the seniors com- ing out victorious. ln a home rooln game between juniors and seniors, the seniors again held the upper hand. Baseball and track, with many girls participating in each, were the next sports to be practiced. The greatest event of the year was the first anual G. A. A. Day on March 23. In a junior- senior baseball game played at home room, the seniors again showed their prowess, marking up a score of 27-7. Popcorn balls were given to all who attended. A round-up party, with each member bringing another girl as her guest, closed the year. QIWND ....ACKNOWLEDGMENTS....
