Comeback of Lowells Football
Team is Characteristic of Life
In winning 1 the A. A. A. championship
Thursday. n« well us downing' our traditional
foe. Poly, Lowell'* football team
taught us a lesson in lift* we should not
forget.
Look back a year. It was the name
Lowell team, un victorious in its previous
same*, pitted against an undefeated Parrot
.squad. No hope was given for that
Indian eleven. They would break under
the pressure and .strain of the game. But
history tells a different story. True, they
lost the game, but only in the last minute
of play. Those boys fought their hearts
out in that game. Even when the gigantic
Poly machine threatened to explode any
minute, no signs of disliearteiiment found
its way into their spirit. Yes. that fighting
spirit, not the defeat, still stands in
the minds of all.
This year, that team stepped on the
gridiron with that same spirit. But this
year, in contrast to last's, found them
sweeping all opposition aside. Victory
was their'*.
Life, as we will find out, will be like
that football team. There will be times
when it seems as if the whole world is
against us. Everything goes wrong. But
when crises as these arise, don't dispnir!
There is no problem so great that w« can't
conquer if we fight back. Remember this
Ml football team. They proved it.
