Arouse Spirit And Active Competition. Sports are not just for people who know and enjoy them, but also for students who feel an at- tachment and a respect for their school. They give everyone the opportunity to support their team and to ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE of sportsmanship. The pressure of an athletic con- test is felt by everyone attending the event, for the players and the fans alike realize they are re- presenting West Side. But the match is more to the player himselfg it is the climax of continual practice and hard work. It is a game in which his experience and skill are tested and he can learn to work as one unit with his teammates. Win or lose, the player finishes the contest with experience and know- ledge which he can use in the future and which he will never forget. The players and the fans all have their part in making sports a primary interest at West Side. .9. Competing against others, a Red Devil matman works hard to pin his man. Arms fly as players scurry to get the ball.
