A lad set out one bright fall day,
The school his destination.
His one intent, or so they say,
Was higher education.
The varied things that him befell
Is what we shortly aim to tell.
The frat men soon had spied him out,
And fell upon him gaily.
The football coach said, "You look stout.
Report to me, sir, daily."
'I'bat took his time from two 'til four,

An triumphed as an actor.
He served with vim as football sub.
In track be was a factor.
And when they beard his tenor voice,
It made the Glee Oub's heart rejoice.
Then midyears came in French and Greek,
Each question was a teaser.
He wrote and wrote for one whole week
On bist'ry, math, and Caesar.
And when be failed they said,
"Poor Jim! His school work was too much for him!"
Here's our thought for the week: "TO BE ALONE IN SOMETHING

cerns and it is in connection with
these that we have evidence as to
his ability as a coach.
: During his first seven years here
at Point, Coach consistently produced championship teams. In fact,
during that period Coach won a
ehampionship in either football or a
basketball in every year. No doubt
9ne of his ·greatest thrills was re~eived when his 1932 championship
team defeated the U. of Wisconsin
team in an exhibition game at Wisconsin Rapids.
~ This fall again finds Kotal with a
Ukely looking squad of boys and it
is not impossible that Coach scents
l}.nother championship in the offing.
Let's make it a successful season and
a happy homecoming and hats off
to All-American Eddie Kotal.
