22 THE ROUND TABLE Boyles: So you see if the tempera- ture of the earth was reduced to 158 below zero all of the air would become a liquid. Irwin: Gosh! We’ed all be drowned! Eddie: Fix has been shooting Mr. Hesse’s ducks! Voice: Yes, that’s all he can shoot! Fix: But I don’t shoot my own de- coys like you do! Look out. Jack, beware of red hair! Watch your step, Waldo. After all, it’s the little ones that count, isn’t it Henry? Keep your eye on him, Virginia. Bet- ter make it both eyes! Yes, Harvey, Keyport teachers are sorta tricky!

THE ROUND TABLE 21 20 yard gain after which Red Bank gained slightly, 4 yards and then was penalized. After another gain of 5 yards Taylor plunged still farther than before and covered all the lost territory of 35 yards. The third quarter ended. It was the last quarter that Red Bank met its doom. At the start we were penalized and in another instant fumbled. Leonardo began a serious at- tack, making three first downs in suc- cession by means of line plunging and end runs until finally the enemy was on our 20 yard line before we realized it. By a clear forward pass, Leonardo se- cured her second touchdown and also after, the extra point leaving R. B. trailing by 1 point. Leonardo kicked to our 35 yard line but on the first down she intercepted our forward pass. R. B.’s line held well and Leonardo kicked to our 20 yard line. R. B. began an aerial attack attempting three passes in succession but finally kicking. Leonardo recovered but was tackled for a loss as the final whistle blew. Once more we met defeat but we hope all took it as a good sport should. We are confident that our boys “did their stuff.” As this was the last game of our foot- ball season it seems proper at this time to comment upon results. Maybe there are a lot of excuses plausible enough but let’s not try to find excuses. Let’s be above that and congratulate our team on showing their “stuff” as they did. Those boys have represented our school, and given their best; what more can we ask? Let’s forget the knocks and get ready to support them even better next year! -------o------- GIRLS BASKETBALL NOTES P. P. H. S. 8; R. B. H S 87 Nov. 21 at Red Bank. On the Y.M.C.A.
