1945 FISHING HIS is one of the most expensive sports and one of the cheapest. It is a sport for rich and poor men, for big men and for little men. This sport is one of the most common and yet it is popular. Every day thousands of dol- lars are spent on Hshing tackle, clothes, and traveling expenses. It is divided into many fields. There are fly-fishermen, plug-casting, and live bait fishermen. All of these types stand Firmly in the field and say that the others are outcasts, foreigners and xxxxxxxxxx. As time is brief I will not elaborate on any one kind. Fishing does many things for a man. It takes him back to nature, gives him an appetite, and gets him away from his wife. This last statement is often not true, however, because now the little woman usually goes along, too. One thing always remains true. While men are mep and there are Hsh, there will always be a sport called fishing. T -A. Brooks ,45. TO THE BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC Over mountains, over rivers, over seas and oceans too, Our soldiers and our sailors have fought for me and you, To show the Ia s and Germans what we are . P going to do. Our troops go marching on. Chorus: Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! Our troops are marching on. From Pacific to the Arctic and all places 'neath the sun They have found they can not beat us with a tank or ship or gun. And you bet there will be quite a fight before our side has won, And our troops come marching home. When instead of fighting battleships the liners sail the sea, And our soldiers and our sailors have set the world a-free, We have right to speak of fairness, justice, truth and liberty. And that God is marching on. -Stewart Bradeen '45. THE MOUNTAIN Do you know the mountains? Do you really appreciate them other than in saying, Isn't that mountain pretty? This phrase, heard so many times in pre-war days when all one had to do to see a beautiful view, was to climb into his automobile and drive to a vantage point on some hilly road, is such a vast understatement that it almost hurts me. May I try to describe just one mountain? I know that my attempt will be inadequate, for words cannot describe the majestic beauty of a mountain. This one is small as mountains go, but in its immediate region it is the tallest, so it really wears a rather important and smug ex- pression. But why shouldn't it be conceited? It gazes down on the valleys that it waters, and feels content, for where are more peaceful val- leys than these which cluster around its feet? And as for raiment--this lord of the land is clothed in all colors. Never need it wear the same garment twice, or if so, a cloud scattered here or there relieves the monotony and same- ness. In the summer from a distance, it appears to be a hazy blue, but on closer examination it proves to be of the customary green. But don't let me mislead you. This mountain's green is not the same as any other's. It has a light green scar up its side-the ravages of man-and around its top it wears a collar of evergreen which lumbermen call black growth and which lends a rather somber attitude to the whole mountain's appearance. f But across the top and trickling down over one side is my mountain's greatest pride. A vein of white quartz shines through its grey granite like a white feather drooping from the crown of a grey hat. Of this the mountain is especially proud and on this strip nothing grows
