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.

were Fraser's and Chalmers machine
shops, the Consumers Ice company, tho
stock yards and both Swift's and Ar
