A Athletics GEORGE TADT. At the close of this school year it seems fitting and proper that a brief review of the physical work of this school should be placed in the same book with the mental. Athletics have always Hourished in the Fredonia Normal School and the teams which have fought for the school during the past school year are well deserving of a great amount of credit, some of the Victories being won under very adverse conditions. The first sport in the course of the school year. we know is football ; and he who has not played that game, has left out some of his life's interesting work. It is somewhat of a tender subject to those who played on this year's team, for our victories were not numerous. yet we were not left in the dark. The reasons for our Hhard luck in football you will not find here, for there never was a team that has not been defeated once and this time it was Fredonias turn. May next year's football team take courage and go hone better than ours. Second in the course of athletic events in our old F. N. is basket ball. It is needless for me to go into details concerning the basket ball team and the season's record, for you, who wit- '39 J44 ll ll -44E Eil' nessed the games have in your mind the team and what they could do. Yet, it seems too brief to stop here. Let us think together for a few minutes of our team. Although the Blue and W hite was defeated in two of the out of town games, yet when these two teams were found in our own gym, they were readily beaten by the Fredonia Normals. Out of five games played the Blue and White won three splendid Victories. i Track and baseball finish the years athletic events. For our track team this year we had some very promising men and the same might be said of the baseball team. It might well be men- tioned that this year's baseball team was fortunate enough to have two stars from out of town. But. friends and schoolmates, we are sorry, yet glad to tell the rest. When the call came to defend our country's Hag, those who were to be on the diamond and on the cinder path, were the first to answer the call. Consequently the Alma Mater has no track or baseball team this year. May those who have gone forth bring back to memory the splendid exhibitions of physical strength for which this school so fittingly prepared them. In lifeis small things be resolute and great To keep thy muscles trained: , knowist thou when Fate Thy measure takes, or when she'll say to thee. I find thee worthy, do this deed for me? e8 M
