NE w SLETS
Weeks ago the season opened

| Here and there a convalescent
Only needs the aid OF cane,
| There are others who are nursing
Arms they're carrying In slings.
| And they're stunning all crowds, fearing
Contract with their crippled wings.
I But the veterans are lining
Up as boldly as before;
Every muscle they are straining
In their eagerness TO score.
They've been toughened by the jostling
And the bumps they had to share,
But each one OF them IL showing
The effects OF wear and tear.
Here and there an ear is missing.
Or nose is turned awry;
Here and there are twisted fingers,
Here and there bandaged eye.
Some around the field are limping,
There are many stiff and sore.
Yet In all the plays they're mixing,
For they're gritty to the core.
But before the seasons over
Therell be others borne away
Bruised and shaken, torn and crippled.
From the scene OF fearful fray.
Many heroes will be missing
When is raised the final shout,
For OF veterans In football
There'll be few TO muster out.
