SANDALPHON SIIYLUCK Cguardj : You call me unfair and rough- Ofttime, e'en from the sidelines I hear The hiss of ignorant mortals and their complaints Well then, it now appears you m-ed my help: 'l'l1e1'efo1'0, you come to mo, and you say, Shy1ock, we must not let them have a basket. You, that did scorn me after 'l'u0sday's graino xvllllll you said that I committed too ma11y fouls- And thus we lost the 'll0llI'I12ilIl011t. What should I sav to you? Should I not sa 6 n U I 1 .

SHYLOCK .......... .... L . G. lll'ARC ANTONY Cforwardb : Fans, rooters, spectators, lend ine your cheers, I come to shoot the ball, not to fumble it. The scores that forwards make, encourage them,-M The fouls oft lead them to their doom! The noble coach hath told us That long passes are seldom completed. If we throw one, 'tis a grievous fault And grievously must we answer it. I-IAMIIET Cforwardj : To shoot, or not to shoot,-That is the question: Whether 'tis better on the tioor, to suffer The bold affronts of persistent guards, Or to take a chance 'gainst enormous odds, And, by shooting increase the score U!-to win,-A to conquer, No more, and, by a trick pass to center To win the cheers and applause That basketeers fall heir to-,Tis a sport Greatly to be admired. To win, to conquer ,- To win, perchance the Tournament! Aye, there's the rub! lllACBETH Ccenterj : Is this a basket-ball I see before me, Descending toward my hand? Come, let me tip thee: I'll catch thee not, neither will I drop my arm. Art thou not, oh pigskin, liable To punishment from mortals U! or art thou but A spherical body, proceeding through the ether? I jump, and it is done, the whistle calls us. Mark it Well, playersg for it is a sound That signals us to victory or defeat. HENRY Cguardb : Once more into the fray, 0 guards, once more, And break up that pass with outstretched arms! On the sidelines, there is nothing so becomes a player As peaceful quiet and solicitude: But when the shrill whistle sounds in your ears, Then put up a front like a brick wall, To grit your teeth, and steady all your nerves, Hold fast the ball, and rouse up every spirit To its full height! page one hundred twenty-nine

'l'l1e First Rhetoric Ulass has been well represented in basketball as may be seen from the number of girls on their two teams. Team A furnished many thrills during' the season. Its predominant characteristic, last-second victory, was evident in the games with the Second Rhetoric B and the Graduates. In one ease they tied the seore and in the other they won by a free throw in the last second to play. Although this team was not in line for the championship, its skilful l1K'l'f0I'lll2!lli'CS caused their opponents considerable IIllSQiVlHQl'S and found them a foe worthy of their steel. Team B is an excellent example of per- severance, for i11 spite of repeated defeat it remained in the games just for the sheer joy of playing, which, after all, is the true spirit of athletics. page one hundred thirty-one
