Sometimes It Seems That Way
Simon Bolivar;
Man of Glory
P Li BLISHE:C BY THE STUDENTS OF THE WASHINGTON
by Thomas Rourke
UNION HIGH SCHOOL
With the sudden wave of friendliness toward South Americans, and
interest in South American history
and customs, it is surprising how
little people know of the hero, Simon
Bolivar.
This is a biography of the young
rich playboy who gave his health
and fortune to free South America
ft·om Spanish oppression. Bolivar
was a general supreme,gaining victory over tremendous odds; yet several times he was <!efeated at critical times by the plots of his fellow
r evolutionists.
"Man of Glory" tells the brutal
atory of Bolivar's rise to fame as the
Liberator of a continent. Withont
dressing his character, the force that
presses him to his goal is strongly

her studies, but feels ill at ease with

sports, much fLLss over little. She lives in a narrow little

that
she misses.
The other student is full of life. She does well in her studies,
too. But afternoons find her hitting a hockey ball for the glory
of Period "::'\...". Active in class activities, she also belongs to

All The way; Martinez Plunges Over From
The One, As The Final Gun Sounds
.After backing each other over the
gridiron all afternoon,· the Washington Huskers finally got going in the
last three minutes to pull the gamto
out of the fire and spill.the favored
Santa Clar10 Panthers by the score
of 7-0.
In a game that turned out to be
a dog fight all the way. the two
teams battled to a standstill in
the first half. Washington kicked
off to Santa Clara. It looked as if
the fireworks were starting early
as Santa Clara went to the Washington 15, aided by a very nice run of
40 yards by Frank Perry, a Panther
halfback. At this point, Santa Clara
fumbled, and Henry Borghi recovered
for the Huskers. Santa Clara
never came any closer to scoring again
durinc the rest of th~ gamv.
Apparently heartened by this tum
of events, the Huskers marched on
consecutive plays to the Santa Clara
47, where they fumbled and Santa
Clara recovered. The 'merry-goround' began once more. The Panther
started prowling again, but a pass
interception by Gene Martinez stopped them on the 36. The half ended
shortly aft(,r with the score 0 - 0 .
In the second half, the play was
just about the same as the first, being mostly defensive play. Finally,
in the waning minutes of the fourth
period, Huskers shifted into over-drive and tore down into Santa Clara
territory.
With about three minutes of playing time remaining, the Huekers
pounded down to the Panther ~2.

Then it came! l'he teams lined up,

the ball and hit for all he was worth.
A hush came over the stands. A

Th{' officials debated, and raised
their hands. A score on the last play
of the game! Bill Pine made the
conversion good.
By virture of the Huskers' win
over the Panthers, Washington
moves into undisputed powsession of
second place in the league standings.
