with heads and hands and every part
Of their bodies against brave and act
i've opponents. who contested every
inch Of ground and took advantage of
every error n a way that did them

honor TO Ocala's hard won victory.
The Tampa team was not as heavy
as the orlandos. but its members were
more wiry and skillful and gave Ocala
closer battle. The visitors were
such a bright and clever set Of boys
that il was impossible for even a pa

sorry that they did not win. or. rather
that there was not victory enough for
them TO have al least a slice
