THE SONG OF A IVOULD-BE OOVVBOY Oh, would that I were a cowboy Out on the grassy plain, I'd lift my voice up to the sky, And give my horse free rein. Oh, would that I were a cowboy With never a sorrow to mend, Witli only joyous thoughts to think And all the days to spend. Oh, would that I were a cowboy Thoughtless of power a11d pelf, Living and riding alone with God And finding the man in myself. Oh, would that I were a cowboy Driving my herd o'er the plain Across the green of the rolling hills- Wzltcliing the daylight wane. Oh, would that I were a cowboy The fruits of the day to reap, Under the roof of a, starry sky VVrapped in the wings of sleep. K. DOONAN, '26

Our prospects were not very bright for a winning team as there was only one letter man, Cuyle, left from last year. How- ever, by coach Wilson's efforts and the loyalty of the men, one of the most dangerous teams of the league was developed. Con- sidering the green material we had to work with we fe-el well repaied for our efforts on tl1e accomplishments of the team. Stamford Seminary should be in line for a championship basketball team next year. With the exception of Harris, Doonan and Cuyle, we will have the same team next year. MacLaury is the captain-elect for next year. He was elected unanimously at a meeting of the letter-men of this year. The following men received their letters for basketball this year: Cuyle Qcapt.j, Macliaury QCapt.-electj, Mackey, Doonan, Govern, Harris and Harper. The line-up of the team was as follows: F. Cuyle, fCaptai11j Rt. guard-left forward. H. MacLa.ury, fCaptain-electj Left forward. C. Mackey, center. M. Harper, Right forward. S. Harris, Left guard. F. Governfright guard. K.
