uliip % agfianampf r 31)? Ktuirk?r You see him out at every game. The man who knows it all; And whenever things look squally You hear the knocker bawl, “The punkest work I’ve ever seen. Who told them they could play? Our team is surely on the bum. That’s all I’ve got to say.” He can’t distinguish flies from strikes, A safety from a punt. But he tells ’em when to work a pass Or when they shouldn’t bunt. Whenever our opponent scores A touchdown or a run, “The game is lost!” the knocker cries, “Our trouble has just begun.” Where’er he goes he takes along His hammer strong and trusty. And knocks most everyone he knows With a voice that’s loud and lusty. He never sees the sunny side Or takes things with a smile. Or stops to say a helpful word. Thinks it’s not worth while. We all can name a lot of men Who love to bark and growl. Who, when their luck is running bad. Are always quick to howl. But are we sure that on the list Of those who knock with glee. No man who knows us as we are Can number you or me? —Genevieve Harkins, ’15. 31)? $must?r Oh, here we have the booster. With his loud and lusty yell. That can be heard thru’ battle’s din. When things aren’t going well. He is the backbone of the team. The power behind the squad; He’s always there with a helping hand, A cheery smile or nod. E’en tho’ the team has lost or won. E’en tho’ the price is paid; He is the one who helps along The down-and-out brigade. Then here is to the loyal booster. To his exhorting cry; Let all the school be boosters. And the game will never die. —Howard Morrow, ’ 1 4.

We have had a fair representation on the “A” and “B” lists throughout the year. Members of the class have won individual honors in the various branches of athletics and, also, in theatrical performances. We fully believe that we have lived up to our class motto, “Climb, though the rocks be rugged.”
