A new college song has been writ
ten for BoWdoin by Joseph Henry
Newell of Richmond, of the class of
1912. and bids fair to become one of
the most popular college songs. New
eli is interested in music and is an
expert cornetist. He made the Col
lege Band in the fall of Freshman
wear anu UeCduSc VI illo etDiity NiiSAi
the band elections came the following
spring was chosen to lead the band
this year, which he is doing with great
success. The song is set to the air
of the "OficeN of the Day." a lively
march which the College Band has
used much this past fall. The catch
mess of the music with which all
have become familiar is one of the
great attributes of the song which will
do much towards it's success. The air
was transposed for the song by Frank
Z. Kendrie, 10 of Ocean Park.
Following is the song:
Well sing now to dear Old Bowdoin,
The fairest of the fair,
The college of good fellows,
With cheers we'll rend the air,
Fair play and may the best man win,
boys,
This motto we display.
So off with hats for Bowdoin dear,
And may she live for aye.
On gridiron, track and diamond,
Old Bowdoins sons excel,
Urged on by Bowdoin spirit,
They do their work right WELL
And when it comes right to a pinch. boys,
You'll always find them there,
They hit the line and hit it hard,
But always do it fair.
May Bowdoin ever in the future,
Uphold her standard white,
And strive for greater hOnorS,
BY valor, truth, and right,
Fair play and may the best man win,
boys,
This motto we display
So off with hats for BoWdoin dear,
j. H. Newell, ~.
