There was Woodbury Kane, an Ivy League dandy,
Joe Stevens, the world's greatest polo player,
Dudley Dean, the famed Harvard quarterback,
Bob Wrenn, the nation's number-one-rated tennis player.
Hamilton Fish was there too, former captain of the Columbia crew,
and there were footballers from Princeton, high-jumpers from Yale,
gentlemen huntsmen named Wadsworth and Tiffany,
and elegant blue-blooded Englishmen.
You've heard so much about them,
and you never knew any of their names ......
