But the team showed eagerness, worked conscientiously, and gave their every effort to accomplish victories. 121 Coaches . . .

As Lab's spectators go from game to game, town to town, they not only take the name of Lab to many parts of the state, but they constantly display the great spirit and sense of fair play for which the Lions are known. Though the game may not always be won, self-discipline, sportsmanship, and courage, points which we value in the game of life, have been gained through participation in the interscholastic sports pro- gram.
