Surrounded by friends I am lonesome,
In the midst of my joys I am blue:
With smile on my face I've . heartache,
Thinking, dear John, of you.
Getting used to being lonesome,
That's the hard part to bear;
Getting used to all the sorrow
You were once SO quick to share.
Getting used to all the heartaches,
Night and day from missing you:
Getting used to being lonesome,
That's what I must learn to do.
Some day hope to join you, darling.
Some day, I know not when,
To be with you in the holy land,
Never to part again.
Keep him, Jesus, in Thy keeping
Until / reach that blessed shore,
Then. o Master, let me have him
And love him as ! did before.

burg could not get past the
Marysville %, and tried a field
goal with Jones doing the kick
ing. It was short and Marysville
took over on its own 20. This
was the start of the last Mon
arch touchdown march, with the
scoring actually coming in the
fourth quarter. Bob Paterson
scored the touchdown on an end
run from the 3-yard stripe.
After this, Coach Wenzel sub
stituted even more freely than
he had been, and it was finally
Mechanicsburg's turn to score.
The Indians took the kickoff
and advanced the ball SO yards
in nine plays. The touchdown
came on a pass, Gest to Fraley,
which covered a distance of
seven yards. Jones place-kicked
the extra point.

each touchdown. To register that
many conversions without a miss
in a single game is remarkable
accomplishment for even col
lege player; for a high school
lad it is almost unheardof.
One thing contributing to the
ease with which Grimes was
able to boot those six perfect
placements, however, was the
line in front him. Heavy and
with perfect blocking, the Mon
arch forwards gave him all the
time in the world to get his
kicks off.
Score on Kick OFF
The Monarchs scored twice in
the first quarter. The first touch
down took less than Is seconds
to manufacture as Hill took the
opening kickoff, raced right
through the entire Mechanics
burg team with perfect blocking
to clear path for him, and
crossed the goal untouched. 1t
was an 85-yard run and the big
gest thrill of the game.
Mechanicsbug took the follow
ing kickoff which was short and
started a march of its own. But
after getting to the Monarch 80,
the Indians were held for downs
and had to punt, Boyd bringing
the ball out 5 yards to the
Marysville 10. Hill ripped off a
51-yard gain, and six plays later
Buddy Hoffman plunged over
from one-yard out. Again Grimes
converted.
Second Quarter Scores
The third touchdown came on
the second play Of the second
stanza, as Hoffman again tailed
from yard out This score cli-
NAKED a 34-yard drive which
started after the Burg had again
been forced to punt.
Nine plays later, Johnny Day
ton scored the fourth touch down
on an end-around play from 10
yards out, Gaping march
which had started on the Mech
anicsburg 40. The Menarchs
were again knocking at the
touchdown door when the first
half ended.
In the third period, Mechan-
icsburg fumbled on the first play
after the kickoff, with Tackle
John Schwartzkopf recovering
for the Monarchs on the Indians
40. 1t took just four plays to
score the fifth touchdown of the
game, with Hoffman making it
on an ll-yard off tackle slant.

MAAA Again Denied Permit
For Fights by Ring Board

The District Boxing Commission
yesterday reconsidered the Metro
politan Amateur Athletic Associa.
tons application for permit te
stage an amateur fight show, but
did not change its earlier decision
to turn down that application.
AS a result Of that earlier decision
the MAAA recently filed suit against
the commission asking court order
for a permit. The MAAA was or
ganized about year ago to promote
Negro amateur athletics. 1t is not
a member of the District Amateur
Athletic Union.
Chairman Heinie Miller of the
Boxing Commission told MAAA
representatives at yesterdays hear
ing that he had been informed by
the AAU that fighters taking part in
MAAA shows would be barred from
future events sanctioned by the
AAU. Miller said that the COM
mission thought it would be in the
best interests of the fighters in
volved not to permit a show that
would result in those fighters being
barred from other amateur events.
