CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM The cross-country track team opened its first season in seven years under the leadership of co-captains Dick Gysan and George Weeks. Under the super- vision of Coach Olsen the team trained earnestly, taking trips out into the coun- try where the boys built up their endurance by strenuous training. Several members showed definite signs of improvement. The team showed up very well this year and there is promising material for the coming year. i 12 }•

RIDING CLUB The Challedon Riding Club is one of the many active clubs in the Belmont High School. The club consists of about twenty regular riders. This group rides every Tuesday afternoon and meets every Wednesday noon during utility period for a business meeting. They also study the parts of the horse and its equip- ment. The members of the club have had felts made for their jackets and later some of the members hope to have club pins. The club has been guest of and host to the Watertown Riding Club and have had very enjoyable associations with them. In the spring the club is going to put on a horse show for the student body. 03
