 Bring forth a hero medal.
 For now begins the fray.
 Put on the loudest pedal.
 And let the music play.
 Let bards his praises carol.
 As modest, yet severe, UnmoVed by thoughts of peril,
 The umpire doth appear.
 We loudly hail the pitcher, | The catcher, too, we laud.
 Each year we make them richer,
 And we gather to applaud.
 But the man who dares untearing
 Each swift and wrathful ball. We mention him with jeering
 If We mention him at all.
 And when the chariot carries
 The victors from the fray
 He goes, and never tarries,
 Unnoted on his way.
 In splendor they are riding,
 Meath the worlds s admlTing glance. | While the man whom they are ending
 Has to take the ambulance.
