THE TEAM ......... By Edmund V. Cooke

But when the teams slowing

With some glass in the arm and
some wood in the head,

Or bowling and hooting?
Is the ink in our arteries yellow,

A towns reputation
Is judged through the nation
Ry its spirit Of sport and the brant
Of its ball,
But surely you've noted
