LOVE'S LABOUR LOST Throughoui our Tour years aT Midwood, all ol: us have sTored away several never-To-be-TorgoTTen in- cidenTs and impressions, abouT which we shall re- minisce long aTTer bidding our alma maTer Tarewell. For many, iT is The aThleTic phase of high school liTe which will have The deepesT and mosT lasTing im- prinTs. UnTorTunaTely, Midwood, lmuch To The chagrin oT Those who have pals aTTending rival schoolsl has never been able To boasT oT consisTenT aThleTic prowess in any Tield. BuT perhaps This made The rare Triumphs all The sweeTer. We resigned ourselves To The TaTe oT having vicTorious Math Teams, and sorry aThleTic squads. Few oT us will be able To TorgeT The happy day liT will probably go down in hisToryl when we FIN- ALLY WON A FCOTBALL GAME!! lIT Took seven long years Tor Mid-gridironers To accomplish This TeaTl. lT didn'T maTTer ThaT Manual's eleven, lour vic- Timl was considered The cousin oT every Team in The loop. lT also didn'T maTTer by how many poinTs we won. All ThaT maTTered was ThaT aT long long lasT we had won! No sTudenT body was ever more proud oT Our Team Than we were. Looking back, how many of us wenT home and shed Tears aTTer our quinTeTTe dropped +ha+ hearTbreaker in overTime To Madison during The '52 campaign? . .. T-low many oT us Thrilled To The Triumphs oT The '53 Tennis Team, Midwood's TirsT CiTy Championship ouT- TiT? . . . And how many OT us can ever TorgeT The names oT Toorock, Dusenberry, ITshin, Murphy, Melni- coTT, AlTer, RubinsTein, FeTner, and all The oTher aTh- leTes among The graduaTing ranks who gave Their all in order To bring our school a liTTle glory?
