Pfpljtfixj i '- The Nebraskan-Hesperian ttr fcr 4 Whoa touch-downs bring a goal Into request Ho draws his foot back and you know tho rest. Then here's a health to burly John Westovor; Show him a foot ball game and he's in clover. Next year wo call him captain uC the te"hm And verily unless we nil do dream Tho 20th century shall be well begun By the victorious team of Nlnieen One. Another sorrcMop is right end "Cort." A civil engineer and foot ball sport Ho plays iu every game and In them all He keeps his eagle eye upon tho ball. In every scrimmage like a beacon light His red head marks tho thickest of the light. Now comes . young Raymond widely known as "Iko" For full-back, him the most of all we like. But fearful, timorous parents Interpose So "Ike" must wait a while until he grows; And meantime let him bravely bear tho brunt Of cruel fate which says thou shalt not punt Full many another hero could I name Who well deserves a heavy meed of fame But some of them have names that will not rhyme And I am trespassing upon your time. I ask your pardon for this foolish verso Because I know it could not well be worse. A resolution extending a vote of thanka to those wbS had contributed to the fund for the banquet was passed before adjournment. zi&tSs SOCIETY Alpha Tau Omega entertained in formally at dancing at their chapter houso on Inst Friday evening.
