HOW WE PLAY

HOW WE PLAY HERE are no dullards in W.L. H. S. Here, at times, we put aside learning in order that we may add a certain zest to life. Play fits admirably into our daily round. | We have fun during those cold nights in the fall, as we watch our star half-backs make endless runs across the goal line adding victory to victory for W.L. H. S. And what a football team! Will we ever forget them—those boys who learned the rudiments of the game when they were kids? Playing together for years, they achieved a splendid teamwork, so that in their crowning year their success was never-to-be-forgotten. What fun we had on the train trip to Peru or the long jaunt to South Bend in the drizzling rain when the fans used their precious gas coupons freely. We are not just football minded in our love of athletics, for we cheer the scrapping five in basketball quite lustily. At an out-of- town game six loyal rooters, surrounded by the foe, were seen and heard yelling themselves hoarse. W.L.H.S. is not satisfied with two sports. On the first spring day the track team goes forth at the sound of the gun to bring home rib- bons of victory won by steady pace and fighting hearts. Each season our teams prove that they know how to play competitively. All of our play is not done on the track, or the gridiron or even the hardwood floor. We have fun in the school halls, or in the cafe- teria at noon. We shall never forget the fine dances that the clubs and classes give. On certain nights the school is transformed by the magic of lights, and drawings on the walls, and reams of colored paper. On certain nights we are transformed by the magic of for- mals or new sports clothes, and the spell of music. Each day we have a good time with one another, both in the class- room and outside. The spirit of the school is that of work and play, of loving life and building it in the best way we know. Page forty-three
