OCEAN CITY LOSES HARD FOUGHT GAME Ocean City A. A. Defeated by Wilduoodt Last Saturday,! 1-0 i

I •' - i- k that this shift, however, Is. 11 proven of little value :lnri in" it* There is, however, one requisite of- 1 all that lias not rhungeri ami M , .or ■ ill ami that i- .si ..f '• men who play clean, hard, viriou " r....thall ami play that up to the last ' , Alto. There i* probably .... other »■ game-in -which a man ha.- to put every- v thir-v he has, as he does in "-football. ' There ran Is- .no half-way measure*. N .-a aie "either playing your utiim.-l '' not at all a- far a roadl* an- ' nW In the days "guard 1 hark- anil the "tandem play-" it Junk I1 I .Sit heavy men anil (In Thought v. a 1 given tif speed I , Then with the coming of the for- 1 • , ..id -pa— intr game the inaction came ..l.out and light, fast men weir the ' rule. And now we cine to modem 1 fontliair jvhere. the all-around man i - chief requisite. He .dust be h-avy . " ' .'.r.nak.- 1 I e rfe. re nco equn 1 1 > well; and 1 throw himself into any position of ' play. Thi,* man is called a "threat" defensive team. They cannot tell ' whether he is going to run. pa— or ' kirk ami cannot diagi. o the play un- 1 til it has started. But fundamentally , th- saitte men 1 an- required as ever. The modern • foothall player must still have the c fighting spirit or he i n olo- -. In the ' recent Swarthmorp-Muhlrnhurg game 1 the vastly superior garnet team was 1 held hack by the Muhlenburg men I simply liceause they would not Islieaten. For seven downs the Swarth " ( more liacks hammereil at the Muhlenburg line and for the last three downlarked only a font of a touchdown ami still they Could not put it over lie- i cause the Muhlenburg line was like a ; stone wall — thejrnen lighting shoulder ( to shoulder. It i« this unlieatable. spirit that fm.tlmll tearhe.- one. ami I can think of no other game that troche- it as well. It is inspiring even to watch modern foottijll. The fierce abandon with which the players go into the ' play is iftipressive. Th.-y do not do this solely because of loyalty for their Alma Mantel, but l.-cnuro they love .the game and the principle the game stands fpr. i- true, the injuries m e gets from the game sit- sometime- serious. Still I think the advantage- greatly outf wi-igh the pcyouble injuries and. nothworth while ran Is- had for the asking. It seem* I" me that football anil lite lessons that it teaches an- the principals that make this country what it is to-lay. In some of the foreign countries if a mob of eighty thousand |M-op1e were to *e< n q.-.me similar to thi- the game would end in a free-fur-all and the men would Is- nulling out stilleto* en euch other aim n riot' would probably ensue. But liere nil hard feeling- are dropped with tin- game. The association w ith a football team -cannot help hut help one. Football i never talked in the room- or after practice. The men put into practice what they think on the field and one tarely hears football talked after the scrimmages. The football season i- a long, hnrd grind ami the eililtc must Ik- fast and exciting to Is- able to carry the men's interest through the long season, and even then the men err glad when iti* over It is Interesting to look at the men loll around the "gym" floor in their tog- waiting for the. coach's final speech licforc the game. Some nre visibly nervous and can't keep quiet; others are as calm as if nothing were % going to happen, but one can rrud determination In every fare. They know that the whole sfhool i- there expecting their liest and there is no such word- as failure. Ocean City High School should go in for football with just this same spirit. Any school that has turned out men like BrecklcCy. iti lor. Christian. Norcom. Foplds. Collins. Schneider. Hancock. Smith. Cronecktt, Corson and countless other-. !-i - a tradition to live up to ami-should show that these men's efforts ami records were appreciated and lastly, they arc playing iiecause they feel that the principle- football inculAtes are right and • are their own principles, that it teaches- honesty, loyalty, a clean fighting spirit against odds, large or small, and self-reliance.
