Were we courte ous to visiting teams and did we treat them as Did we make a bad, impression on jtjie minds of our visitors by yelling “catty” raying at the opposing team ? Did we, when defeated, lose our self-control and shout, “Unfair! the refree called the game in favor of the other team?” We, as good sports, should have been able to take defeat as well as victory. We hope that we did ppt make excuses for our oppon ents. Did we, as winners, boast of our winning; get over-confi dent and forget the feelings of the other team ? We also say, “Well done,” to the cheerleaders for their com mendable work during the past season. Did we, who are respon sible for their position, support them in the yells, or did we leave them singing a duet? * We thank the students of Bur nsville High for keeping up the sports tradition of our school. Indeed, we have had splendid co operation from them all. A famous sports-writer once said,..“lf you can’t learn self-con trol, fair play, and clean sports— manship. try solitare, where you l can fight and cheat the. dummy," Phis applies to the students as well as to the • players. Teacher: (to a noisy class) I’ve told you twenty times to keep quiet. Now don’t let me have to tell you the second time.
