BIZ Berion Braler

\ Re plays The game and plays to win
/ with allof. his ability;
He takes his chance and plunges in,
with vlsor and agility;
OF knocks and bumps he takes his share,
And never whimpers tearfully;
He plays to win-but on the square,
courageousiys and cheerfully.
And n he wins he won't grow vain
And tell the world how good he is
And If he fails he won't complain
How much misunderstood he is;
But With an undiminished verve
And with his heart atlame again,
Hen summon aiithis grit and nerve
And plunge back in the game agatnl

And cool and calm tenacity;

He takes lIte largely as it comes
And makes the best he can of It,
