we tried their experiment, but their line held equally as well. The second quarter ended with the ball still near the center of the field. ' The third quarter started with vim and dash that brought the crowd to their feet. The men on both teams were unable to stand the terrible strain of the fierce struggle for supremacy that was on and they were being laid out, and some of them were carried off the field weeping, unable to do anything but lie in their blankets and watch their teammates finish the struggle. Neither side scored in the third quarter. Wlhen the whistle blew for the beginning of the last quarter, both teams lined up with a determination to carry out those instructions pounded into them by their coaches. Roanoke High School must win. The State champion- ship was at stake. The signal was given and the battle was on again. It was a question of which side could stand the awful strain. Lynchburg had the ball in their possession and, again and again, sent their full back at our line. For a moment we weakened and Lynchburg made their downs. The visiting root- ers grew more confident and yelled themselves hoarse. Our men made a wonderful stand. Each time--the men piled up, our line holding nobly. Soon the ball was ours on downs. Time was sho-rt and a goal was needed. Quick as a flash the ball shot back straight into Nelson's hands. The opposing team lunged at our line, trying to break through, but our de- fense was perfect. The drop--kick was successfulg the whistle blew, and the championship was ours. FINIS. LLOYD ENGLEBY, 'l3. X lst 70

Be Strong Be strong, We are not here to play, to dream, to drift, We have hard Work to do, and loads to lift, Shun not the struggleg face it. 'Tis God's gift. Be strong, Say not the days are evil-Who's to blame? And fold the hands and acquiesce-O shame, Stand up, Speak out, and bravely in God's name. Be strong, It matters not how entrenched the wrong, How hard the battle goes, the day how long, Faint not, fight on. To-morrow comes the- song 72
