a group of the boys who

T.. ,1k up and Joii; the crowd,

to talk about.
■ all know that for the last

lable as to which way the
Hunk would go. In football and
■tball we have not been as
sful as we have been in
?bjll. This very thing arouses

mes Begun
imost everyone is familiar with
t that in secondary schools
colleges there has been a
tendency in general to con-
rato emphasis upon competi-
t* ithletics for the superior group

}{roup compose the teams

tiiion. During later years there
developed a growing conscious-
of the importance of promot-
. competitive sports for all stu-
Out of this consciousness
developed the type of compe-
-! known as “intramural.” We
• '.« the word intramural from
I^tin words intra meaning
ithin”: and muralis meaning
ill”: by compounding these
!*ds the resulting term intramur-
v.as achieved.
^he gorjd intramural organiza-
ar»n> in schools and colleges pro-
:io a wide variety of activities

interests of all. Football, bas-
thall, tennis, archery, swimming,
‘ tjail. hockey, volley ball, ping

n*;. soccer, fencing, shuffle-
ird. and rifle art are just a
of the sports which are play-

By (;K.\NTI..\NI) kic k
(Keprinted from The Koothull Nrws)
Bill Jones had beon the .shining star upon hi.s collem* leant.
Ills tncklins was ferocious und his bucking was a dream;
When husky William tucked the ball beneath his brawny
arm
They had a special man to rins the ambulance ularni.
Bill had the speed—Bill had the weiRht—the nerve to
never yield;
From goal to he whizzed along while fragments
strewed the field;
And there had been a standing bet —which no one tried to
call—
That he could gain his distance through a ten-foot granite
wall.
When he wound up his college course each students heart
was sore;
They wept to think that Husky Bill would buck the line
no more;
Not so with William—in his dream he .saw the field of
“ fame
Where he would buck to glory in the swirl of life’s big
game.
Sweet are the dream.s of campus life—the world which
lies beyond
Gleams ever on our inmost gaze with visions fair and
fond;
We see our fondest hopes achieved and on with*striving
.soul
We buck the line and run the ends until we reach the goal.
So, with his sheepskin tucked beneath his brawny arm
one day.
Bill put on steam and dashed into the thickest of the fray;
With eyes ablaze, he sprinted where the laureled highway
led—
When Bill woke up his .scalp hung loose and knots adorned
his head.
He tried to run the ends of life—when lo—with vicious
toss
A bill collector tackled him and threw him for a los.<;
And when he switched his course again and crashed the
line,
The massive guard named failure did a two-step on his
spine.
Bill tried to punt out of that rut—but ere he turned the
trick
Hight-tackle competition tumbled through and blocked the
kick;
And when he tackled at success in one long, vicious
bound.
The fullback, disappointment, steered his features in the
ground.
But one day when across the field of fame the goal seemed
dim.
The wi.se old coach, experience, came up and said to him;
“Old boy,” spoke he, “the main point now before you win
your bout
Is keep on bucking failure 'til you’ve worn the lobster out.
"Cut out this work around the ends—go in there, low and
