I 1 THE CLYMPIAN of . . . UGOQD SPQRTSlXlANSIfIIP VVhat is good sportsmanship? lt is the quality which enables men to enter into competition with an open mind, E111 earnest desire for fair play, and a may the best man win attitude. Good sportsmanship is more than a phrase: it is an essential factor in our lives. VVe need it not only in sports, but in every walk of life. Wlithout it. there is no zest in the game, no joy in win- ning, no warm glow of satisfaction in a task well-done. Good sportsmanship is team-work. In football, for instance, the most valuable player is not necessarily the star who makes all the touchdowns. The player who clears the way 'for the ball-carrier is equally important: for without him, there would be no touchdown. The. best football teams in the country today are those that work as a well-organized unit, each player doing his part for the good of the team as a whole. Ot course, there are stars, but it takes more than one man to score. Even while we read of the brilliant playing of the speedy quar- terback, we should not lose sight ol the fact that he is backed by a team of hard- working men, who are largely responsi- ble for his success. ln school, at home, and in business, situations are always arising which re- quire tactful consideration of others. There is more than one way to kill a cat, as the old saying goes. Wie have our choice of acting for our own per- sonal gain, or for the general welfare of those around us. ,ll we act sellishly, considering only our own interests, that, of course, is our privilege. ll, however, we stop to consider how our actions can beneht others, we are an asset to our community. That is how good sports- manship enters into everyday life. I can best sum up my conception oi good sportsmanship by repeating a con- versation I over-heard in the street the other day. Two grimy youngsters, about ten years old, were hurrying home for supper after a hard day on the playing lield. One of them clutched a hall'-deHated football. and the other proudly wore a leather helmet. Roth were chattering ex- citedly. As I approached them, I asked: lYell, boys. did you win the game? No, said one with a broad grin, but we had a lot of fun losin' l Moiumm Simriizo, '41 SCHQOL SPIRIT School spirit is not the enthusiasm shown after the team has just won a game, hub it is the unswerving loyalty to one's school, its traditions, and symbols, whether in ,victory or defeat. School spirit is not shown in cheering when the team is winning, it shown in cheering when it is losing. Real school spirit is shown in the wholehearted assistance and cooperation given all school activities, no matter what they may be, or who may be taking part in themg given not for praise or amusement. but lor the honor and glory of the school as a whole. School spirit is manifested outside of school as fell. for every student is a walking ad- vertisement for Biddeford High School, whether he wants to be or not. People iudge our school by us. our manners, the respect we give our teachers, and our actions at games. so it is up to us to be good. not bad advertisements for our school.

Seniors now, we. the Class of l94O, pause on the threshold of Biddeford High School for the last time, and glance down the corridors ot the last four years. Nineteen l-lundred and Thirty-Six, the years ot' innovations found us Freshmen at the doors of Biddeford High. Every- thing' was strange and new, but soon we mingled with the others and were carried away on the waves of trial and tribula- tion known to all Freshmen. Steve Ryan was llresident: Marie Gaetske, Vice-President: Virginia Scott. Secre- tary: and Michael Rizas. Treasurer. VVC were found everywhere-in the Glee Cluh, on the football team. on the haslcet- hall team, on the hasehall team. on the debating team, in the orchestra, and in the gym pageant. The girls had an inter- class lmasltethall team which won great renown as a Freshman team. lVe saw the Seniors olli on their trip to Wlasliing- ton and looked forward to the day when Freshmen would stand at the station waving while our train pulled out. Early in our second year we elected class officers. They were: l'resident. Steve Ryan: Vice-l rcsideut, Virginia Scott: Secretary, Eleanor Ryan: and Treasurer, lllargaret lieecrott. The XX ashington Cluh was organized and the ollicers were: President, James Tarpy: Vice-'l'resident, Esther Kennedy: Secre- tary. lane Emery: and Treasurer, Hy- man Osher. VVe chose our class pins. The Sophomores participated in every school activity, proving themselves to he a versatile class. juniors! At last we were important! VVe introduced the Freshmen at the Freshman Reception, and again partici- pated in all events. Vtle chose our class rings. Our officers were: President. I2l Steve Ryan: Vice-President, Virginia Scott: Secretary, james Tarpy: and Treasurer, Margaret Beecroft. XN'e pre- sented the play, Apron String Revolt. starring Esther Kennedy, Philip Tibbetts, and June Wialsh, supported by Rose lialcer, Lillian Masse, -lohn Qllinnihan, Margaret Beecroft, Paul Genthner.

The Senior Play, the Wash- ington trip, the Senior Prom, Class Night. and Graduation flash hefore our eyes. The olticers that guided us on our last lap were: Steve Ryan, President: Virginia Scott, Vice-President: ,Iames Tarpy, Secretary : and Margaret Bee- ci of t. Treasurer. XVe sponsored the Poverty Party, which is fast becoming an annual event and which was a sue- cess in hoth a monetary and a social way. The Senior Play had as its charac- ters, Esther Kennedy.

It was run by its oliicers: james Tarpy, President: Esther Kennedy, Vice- Presidentg jane Emery, Secretary: and Hyman Osher, Treasurer. Members of the club took turns ,in selling the food. and Lillian Masse and Eleanor Ryan had charge of the hot dogs for the whole year. The members of the cluh enjoyed the trip to VVashington. which enabled them to see our great capitol and its various branches in operation, such as the House of Representatives. the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, and the Con- gressional Library. They also visited many national shrines. Among them were Arlington National Cemetery. W'ashington Monument, up which many of' the moreramhitious walkedg the Lincoln Memorial. and Mount Vernon. They also saw Broadway, Chinatown, and Radio City, New Y ork. VVe sincerely hope that next yearis VVashington Club enjoys its privileges as much as we have.

Early in the year we had a class meeting to elect officers. The results were: President, Roland Hotte: Vice-President. 'Pete Mantis: Secretary, Ronald Ayotteg Treasurer, ljatricls Cacciapaglia. Later on oui Treasurer moved away and we elected Thelma Saperia to succeed him in this office. VVQ gave the 'Freshmen a hearty wel- l40'I come at the Freshman Reception, which is an annual event. On February 9. we presented the .lunior Play, our first big venture. A ring committee picked out four rings from which the class chose a gold one with a curved stone of black onyx. Vile are very proud of our class rings, which we think are unusual and distinctive. A class meeting was held in February to organize a Vtfashington Club. The officers elected were: President, joe Zoolcq Vice-President, Janet Baillargeong Secretary-Treasurer, Lucille Morris. THE OLYMPIAN .1 UNIOR CLASS PLAY On Friday. February 9, 1940. the .lunioi Class successfully presented the beloved story. Anne of Green Gables, by H. M. Montgomery. The story concerns Anne Shirley, an orphan child, who. by the aid of Mrs. Spencer and Miss Remson. is placed with Marilla Cuthbert and her brother, Matthew. Matthew likes Anne immediately but Marilla refuses to thaw out. Because of her friendly character, Anne soon makes many friends in Avonlea. One of these is Mrs. Allen, the minister's wife. whom Anne nearly poisons. Gil- bert Blythe. the wealthiest boy in town, likes Anne, but Anne won't have a thing to do with him. Anne had almost drowned. but she still refused to thank her rescuer, Gilbert. Matthew found that Anne had a business head. so he let Anne take care of his bank affairs. Anne soon changed the money to another bank. Then when The Bank of Avonlea closed its doors. Anne informed them that their money is safe in The Grand National Bank. Marilla thaws out and Anne is fully received into the Cuthbert family. Marilla marries her old beau. Ira Mills. and Anne becomes friendly with Gilbert. T HE CAST ANN12 SIIIRLEY, 1411 .-lclonzlrlv CD.

Y M P l A N ifnesi-ilu Norris There were 1-ll members of this class to enter Biddeford High School on Sep- tember ll. This was a day to be re- spectfully. but pleasantly. remembered by all ol' us. Officially and heartily received by the upperclassmen on October 11. at the Freshmen Reception, we wore the green, and responded to the other cus- toms of this annual event, a most con- siderate gesture for our welcome. On the first ranking period Honor Roll a long list of freshman names api- peared. Showing ourselves a 20,1 pe: cent class in standing for the second ranking period. there were twenty-eight honored. Gradually we have taken our places in the activities of the school. Several of our boys were in the substitute list for SOPHOMOR Now that we have shed our green hats and donned Sophomore sophistication, our number is 123. At the beginning of the school year we held a class meeting with Mr. Mc- Carn as advisor, a very dignilied class meeting with our new stateliness sitting proudly upon our shoulders. The follow- ing officers were elected: President, George Spirouniasg Vice-President, -los- eph Kenneallyg Secretary, Margaret Vtfelchg Treasurer. Paul Sullivan. Later another meeting was held and Eugene Amnotte. Pauline Lavallee, Bern- adette Pepin, and Lionel Provencher were named as a committee to choose class pins. At the same time, Edward Lane and John Poli were nominated to select a present as a symbol of our sympa- thy tor Mr. Marshall, one of our new teachers. who had submitted to a serious operation shortly after the beginning of the school year. The Sophomore class has been active in sports and other school activities this year. Donald jalbert is playing in the school orchestra. Bernice Brackett, Lu- cille Painchaud. and llflary VVhite sing in the Girls' Glee Club. l'2I football. The boys' basketball is played by two teams. namely. lXflaine Elllfl Colby, The names of those who made the girls' class basketball team are: Nancy Xkfilliams, Eleanor Sharkey, Theresa Sul- livan, Ethel Aguiar, Janice l-lartley. and Margaret Labelle. In the orchestra, sev- eral members of this class were accepted. ln the Glee Club. ten of us took part in the musical numbers which were so cred- itably presented in the program. Maine Schools On the Air. Mr. McCarn found two able representatives among the Freshmen for the Debating Club.

TODAYSCHALLENGET lN'GOVER The year 1940 is in its infancy. Not many days ago, we ushered it in with gay celebrations. VV e said, Happy N ew Year! to one another, and our voices were loud and boisterous. VV e were very jubilant. VVhy not? Do we not have our health and our youth and our lives stretching before us, a thrilling panorama of promise? And do we not live in America? Do we not enjoy that great- est of all blessings, liberty? Yes, we were very gay---and with reason. Yet, under- lying the gaiety was a vein of sadness that we felt almost against our will. VVc know that there are other people in other lands who did not celebrate the birth of another year. For them. there can be no celebrations. They do not go about exchanging happy greetings. They do not even smile, let alone laugh and be merry. For they are at war, and war is a grim business. The thought of these millions of un- fortunate people-many of them children -has an insidious way of intruding upon the senses. and casting a blanket of gloom over the brightest moments. True. we are still in school, but we know what is going on. There is no government cen- sorship here. Newspapers and radio keep us well informed. lt is impossible to shut our minds to world events, and we must recognize the responsibility which confronts us, the youth of America, the future law-makers of this country. l.et us analyze this responsibility. It is not enough to realize that the world is in chaos. VVe must go further and find the cause underlying the present condition. In order to do this, it be- comes necessary to go back a few years to 1933. An Austrian paperhanger has just come into power in Germany, and strange things are beginning to happen. XVe hear stories so horribly fantastic, so QJAMERHLUQYUUTH: NMENT incredibly gruesome, that we refuse to believe them. Vtlho is this man Hitler? XVbat is all this talk about Nazis, concen- tration camps, and Non-Aryans? It must be exaggerated! Such things don't happen in a civilized world! The Ger- mans will not stand for it! We soon learned dinierently. Things were happening-savage, bestial things. And the Germans were standing for it. More than that-they were voicing their approval, The rest of the world shrugged its shoulders and said, Nothing to be alarmed about-it will pass. That was ten years ago. Since that fateful january thirtieth, when Hitler be- came Chancellor of the Reich, the world has seen many changes. Now Europe is embroiled in a war, because they learned --a little late-that a lllilfllllllll with a Napoleonic complex must be stopped. They do not laugh at him any more. There is no shrugging of shoulders, no saying. 'fit will pass. Over here in America, we watch the conflict with anxoius eyes. VVe are neu- tral. Our sentiments are with democ- racy and personal liberty. of course, but as a nation, we take no sides. And, as we watch, we are aware of a challenge- a challenge that we cannot and must not ignore. lt is up to us to build a struc- ture of truth a11d justice and democratic ideals that will be a standard for the whole world to follow. It will not be easy to accomplish this, but it mu be done. The first step is education. Vtfe must educate every American to appreciate the privilege of having an active voice in his government. The right to vote is not negligible, and should be treated as an honor, rather than as a mere annoy- ing obligation. Too often we hear some- H THE OLYMPIAN one say, I did not vote in the last elec- tion-I did not have the time. Oh, well -l'm no politician. That is what peo- ple said in Germany, that is, prior to l933. Now they are saying-those who are still alive- Heil, Hitler! The second step deals with living in the American way. If it is a distinct privilege to help make the laws, it is an even greater privilege to help carry them out. The ideals set forth in our Constitu- tion should be before us every moment of our lives. inspiring us to be decent, happy, law-abiding citizens. Living in the American way means more than obey- ing the law, however. It means being tolerant, kind, and charitable. It is tragic, but true, that these three words have rather an old-fashioned ring today. The third step is the most difficult, and therefore the one we are prone to neglect. lf we desire to build a perma- nent structure for democracy. we must exterminate the termites. XV e must wipe out all un-American organizations. True, this is a free country, and everyone is entitled to tree speech. But there is no room for Bunds and Anti-this and Anti- that Leagues. lN'e cannot prevent them from existing, but we can spread a net- work of truth. even as they spread their insidious network of lies, and thus hght tire with fire. VVe want no isms in our land ot liberty. VV e want no menace to our happy lives. This, then, is the challenge: To make our country a shining inspiration to us and to the peoples of the world who turn to us for guidance since they have no other place to turn. Can we do it? It is no longer a question of ability. XVC llltlif do it. if we are to survive after this dark period. VVhen peace comes, as it some day must, and democracy triumphs over dic- tatorship, as with the grace of God it some day will, we will be able to say to tired, war-ridden people. Lay down your guns forever. lN'e will show you the road to 'lit'e, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness'.

His skin reminds one of a slightly bald, old man with a pink scalp and scurvy. His coarse, sparsely sprinkled white bristles come nowhere near covering up his ter- rible complexion. And his eyes! l.ong. sandy colored lashes, shading little squint eyes that seem. as l remember them. to be blue. lmagine a pig having blue eyes! His snout has a wet end and looks like a sawed-oti' elephants trunk that has been doused in water and then rubbed in gar- bage, The only pleasant thing about a pig's appearance is his tail. XVouldn't we women be pleased if our tresses were as permanently curled as the pig's rear appendage! lt gives the general effect of a corkscrew thumb-tacked onto his derriere. The only other thing that meets the eye is the pig's home. Knee deep mud. a messy trough hlled with milady's waste, mixed with some kind of grain and warm water. His home is a low-rooted but with a gloomy interior and old torn potato sacks to stuff the ehinks and soften his nightly repose. However. seeing a pig is nothing com- pared to smelling him! The odor is im- possible to describe. but its eHeets are a sullocating, nauseated 'feeling followed closely by a great desire to go home and have a bath. The table manners ot a pig are deplor- able. VX-'hy even an experienced social reformer like Emily Post would stand no chance with him! 'Whether he has a mouth or draws his delectable meal up through his nasal protrusion. I do not know: but whatever his table technique may be, a11d whether he masticates his food thoroughly or not, he makes a tas- cinating sound. described in animal books as slurp. slurp, slurp, ugh g the ugh denoting deep satisfaction. Think of all the uses he is put to! His dirty white bristles do the most talented things when fashioned into an artist's paint brush. His filthy boots, delicately Havored by years of mud wallowing, are carefully pickled and eaten. His tongue is, according to those who have known its epicurean delight. a real delicacy. He makes roast pork. ham. bacon, Vork- chops, and glue fthe glue coming from his bones, as does a certain something which goes to make gelatin jelll. He also makes tasty sausages. hot dogs. and smoked shoulders. His school girl skin is tanned and fashioned into shoes, bags. jackets. and footballs-no, not tootballs, l stand corrected. His salt pork goes into our Saturday night beans. No doubt there is some use for his tail: it there isn't, some genius will find one. But worst of all, imagine worshipping one! A dirty, smelly creature with an annoying grunt! VVell the Chinese and Hindus do! lX'lARGAR12T BIQECROFT, '40 OCTOBER l like the month of October. The month of falling leaves.

'40 H61 THE OLYMPIAN RETRIBUTION Peter Krag was standing just inside the entrance of the supply tent belonging to the Colonel Frederick Hates Expedi- tion, twenty days march deep. in the African jungle. His right hand was lirmly planted against the ivory tusk of a prime bull elephant. His left hand was hooked in his belt. Krag's sun- burned brow was deeply furrowed. There were twenty-nine more tusks in the large tent. ghostly in the dim light of early evening. Peter Krag was planning to make one-half of this fortune in ivory his own. lf any accident should befall the owner of an expedition while in the bush coun- try. the guide of the expedition received lifty per cent of the value of the cargo for conducting it safely back to civiliza- tion. 'llhis was the law of the bush country: it was recognized by the lirit- ish Colonel Troopers. who were the only law enforccrs. And Peter Krag was the official guide of the Frederick Hates Ex- pedition. Krag was not a villainous looking man. but looks. in his case were deceiving. lle was of medium build, possessing unruly brown hair streaked by the sun. l'lis eyes only betrayed him. They were hard and flinty and they mirrored his soul. The realistic looking smile, however. upon his pleasant mouth served to offset this characteristic. A native goat. destined to be used as lion bait by Colonel Bates for his eve- ning hunt, was tethered to a stake, just outside the tent. lts contented bleat mingling with the drone of evening in- sects fell lightly upon Krag's ears as he stepped out of the supply tent. Quickly crossing the small court, he entered Colo- nel Bates' quarters and took the Colonel's big-game riHe from the rack. The old Colonel was a methodical man: he was planning the next day's hunt with the natives. He had plenty of time, for tue old Colonel never came back to his quar- ters until after dark. There were still lifteen precious minutes of daylight left. All the natives would be in the main tent with Hates. No one would see him. King produced two medium caliber ritle cartridges from his pocket and dropped them into the breeches of the double barrelled .50 caliber ritle. The small cartridges slid well up into the breech. so that there was ample room for the regular .50 caliber cartridges to slide into place. VVhen the trigger was pulled and the smaller cartridges blew to pieces just ahead of the larger ones-well, the ivory was his. or half of it at least. Enough to make him rich,-he. Peter Krag! l-le could live a life of ease, but it was not over yet. he must hurry. He replaced the Colonel's rifle and stepped out into the court yard again. lt was growing dark now and soon Colo- nel Bates would embark upon his lion hunt. Krag walked past the goat toward his own tent. He stumbled, looked down and saw that one of his boots had be- come unlaced. Kneeling. he tied the boot, straightened up and looked into the eyes of a full grown male Nubian lion. Krag was between the lion and the goat l Neither Krag nor the lion moved. :Ns the goat caught scent of the beast he began to blat loudly. They stood there for what seemed to be hours lo Peter Krag until he heard a low whistle behind him. Turning his head slowlv so as not to aggravate the beast, he saw Dak, the Colonel's native man servant. approaching with a heavy rifie in his hands. Dak did not understand how to Ere the rifle. but he was absolutely fear- less. Wfalking slowly. he approached Krag, the rifle in his outstretched arms. Krag's eyes were again glued to the lion. who was becoming more irritated as Dak moved closer. I-le did not dare to look at Dak again, but kept his eyes on the lion. After many more long hours. he felt metal and wood in his hands. l-le was safe now! -lust bring the gun around. aim quickly and squeeze , . . Everything went black before the eyes of Peter Krag. I47 l THE OLYMPIAN Dak had picked up the gun that Krag had loaded for the Colonel. .X fragment of the gun barrel grazed the lion's side and the loud explosion startled him. causing him to Hee. Dak stoocl speechless. R E GA I N .-X boyish figure. leaning on the bridge rail. stood looking into the cold, running water .The night was dark. and the air was filled with mystery. VVhat a night for the end of all things. Vklhat peace! The boy looked homeless, broken, de- feated. Farther away, an old man was walk- ing towards the bridge. Although he was dressed shabbily, he looked as though he, at one time. had enjoyed the dignity and respect of all. I-Ie was distinguished- looking, in spite of the fact that he needed a shave and haircut. He too. looked homeless, broken, defeated. As he walked across the bridge. he noticed the frail boyish figure. and stopped to ask him where he could find a lodging for the evening at not an expensive place. The boy looked at him and told him that he could hnd. at the corner of the street. an extremely well-kept inn. Thank you. said the old man. I guess I will sit on this bench to rest a whilef' Silence prevailed for a few minutes. The old man broke the monotony by Sily' ing. Son. you' look extremely depressed, as if you were on the verge of jumping into that black. cold riverf' Yes. said the boy sadly, I was: but your abrupt arrival halted my impulse. VVhy, son, you're a young man-you have a whole life ahead of you. Wliat have you to be discouraged about? I'm an old man. The lighting youth in me has gone. But you, he mocked, you're young! VVhere's your lighting spirit? My lighting spirit? questioned the boy. 'Tm tired of hghting. Ever since I was born I had to fight for my exist- ence. You see. I'm an orphan. I was left at an orphanage at the age of six. l43l ll was as Colonel Bates had said when he viewed Peter Krag's body lying as he had tallen: A most peculiar accident. PAUL Gicnru N iam ED SOUL At the orphanage. the trustees were good enough to help me with my music. You see, I'm a violinist-or what's left of me. I went to New York as I had read much about the great fields it offered to people of all walks of life. There, I faced noth- ing but resentment from the upper class, and vulgarity in environment of the slum- classes. Somehow, I struggled along working as store clerk and doing other small jobs. Tired of struggling, I re- turned to this town-a failure. Night after night I've tried to end it all here. Son, the old man interrupted. you've just met the hard side of life. It is lar better to be a failure in your early twenties than in your late fifties. I-lad I your disappointments in early life. I wouldn't be sitting here today. Once upon a time I enjoyed the greater things of life. I was born in wealth. I had everything. Iiut still, son, I failed. I was too sure of myself. and instead of thinking of my inability to do any thing, I enjoyed life. VVhen my beloved parents died, I made blind investments with my inheritance. Now, I'm penni- lcssf' I-Ie gazed out into the night try- ing hard to keep back his tears. The young boy broke the silence say- ing. I feel silly having told you my sor- rows. Y ou. sir, you had something. But I had nothing to lose and weep about. I feel as though my lighting spirit is in me again. Good-bye. I must go now. You see, I've got to start early tomorrow and look for a job. As the boyish figure slowly dimished in the dark night, the old man gazed into the black water, and grumbled, I've saved that boy's life, even though I told a white lie. Vtlell, I guess I'll catch that freight.'J NIARY MARIELLO THE OLYMPIAN SYMPHONY The street lamps glowed dimly through the misty fog drifting in from the Thames. as London began to stir with the usual night life. Glittering women alighted from limousines, Hanked by the severe black and white of their compan- ions. while the air seemed to be filled with their light chatter and the trailing scents which followed after them. Everyone in l.ondon seemed to be go- ing somewhere, even Nicholas More. But he seemed curiously alone as he paid the cabby. and mounted the broad steps of the concert hall which was already fill- ing with people. A tall, well-formed man in faultless evening dress, he paused on the threshold after checking his hat and coat. then walked quickly down a side aisle to a seat in the dimly-lit wing. and sat there. waiting. The great hall was now filled to over- fiowing. and the high chatter of the wom- en, the buzzing undertone of the men, and the general movement, had increased to a small. roar. for all had come to hear the great -Tosef Volyanov conduct. The members of the large orchestra had slipped into their places. and had tuned their instruments. Suddenly a hush fell over the audience. as a short, white- haired man walked quickly across the stage. up to the small raised platform. and bowed to the applause. Turning, he rapped sharplv on the stand, raised his baton. let it fall. and the room was swept away bv the stirring strains of Dvorak's New VVorld Symphony. At first sight of the energetic little man. the thoughts of Nicholas More turned back, back to a rose garden in the south of France, where he had known Josef- and his daughter, lovely Ellen. The sun had shone down from brilliantly blue un- clouded skies in the day. the moon had shone softly down in gleaming radiance at night, and there he had loved Ellen- Ellen, who had had dark, laughing eyes. the blush of the roses in her cheeks, and a heart encased in an ivory shell! Painfully, he went back over the af- fair, from the first breathless beginning, to thedisastrous climax. .-X poor, young music student at the conservatory, he had met the great Volyauov, and the master had become interested in him, often inviting him to the villa in which he and his daughter were staying. More had met Ellen in the garden, and there he had carried on his shy courtship. Then one day, he heard that she had gone with an officer of the regiment. the night before, to gamble at the Casino. He rushed to her, filled with fiery indignation, to tax her with the truth. She admitted it, said that he. Nlore, was too poor to give her everything she wanted, and laughed in his face. Something broke within him, and cold and sick at heart, he stumbled away. XYithin an hour, he was on his way back to l.ondon. But he never knew that in that hour after he had left her, she had met with a grave accident, and had lain nearly dying for many weeks. After a time, when he had partly re- covered from the heartache, he had ob- tained a small position on the staff of a London paper, and since then had risen to the position of a music critic. Suddenly. More woke from his reverie with a start. Volyanov was speaking in loud. yet thin. tones which seemed to try to reach out over the audience. l have here a composition by this, as yet unknown. composer. She is my daughter. Ellen Volyanov, and I take pleasure in introducing her first sym- phony. More started violently, then shook his head in disbelief. Now the music began to steal out, dancing and tinkling, like the shallow brook: suddenly he saw Ellem in the garden. laughing. Higher and higher chattered the music, then a poisonous un- dertone of discord crept in. and grew and grew. until the music was not laughing any more. but was harsh and grating.

The audience burst into wild applause, renewed again and again, but Ixlore sat as if in a dream throughout the rest of program. VV hen it ended, he arose and made his way past the excitedly murmur- ing groups of admirers, past the con- gratulatory groups around Josef V al- yanov. and behind the stage to the dress- ing room.

FRANCES PARISEAU, '42 l50l THE CLYMPIAN IMPGSSIBLE Gathered around an old stove in a small general store in the town of Bear Creek. Canada. was a group of trappers and traders. Everyone seemed intensive- ly interested in the story an old half- hreed was telling. Everything about the old fellow pro- claimed him a veteran of the wilderness. his heavy fur-lined jacket, his worn moosehide mocassins, and even his wrinkled, weather-beaten face. Among his listeners were two young men who, by their dress and actions, seemed to be more or less tenderfeet. Strangely contrasting were the 'features of the two boys, for they were hardly men. hut both. had something about them that was the same, It would he hard to decide just what. but something. They were dressed much alike in heavy boots, corduroy trousers, and leather jackets. One was a lad of about medium height, dark, and muscular. Thei other was tall. fair. and slender. just the opposite. Both were as intensively interested in the story as were the rest of the group. As the old half-breed finished his story there came a silence. it was broken after a few moments by another old trapper, who said loudly. lmpossihlel The two boys did not speak but it was evident that they were thinking. VVith the end of the story the group broke up. The hoys put on their jackets and stepped out into the starlit street, the main street and only street of the town. They walked silently toward their shack on the edge of the town. Both were silent as they undressed and climbed into their hunks. After about half an hour, and neither was asleep. the tall fellow said, slack, do you believe that story ? I don't know, Dick, returned jack sleepily. He might be telling the truth but I think he's stretching it. Again all was silent for a few moments. then Dick said, jack, let's find out for ourselves ! His answer came in the steady snoring of black, and a moment later he, too, joined in. The next morning was cold. crisp, and sunny. A perfect day. The boys iinished their breakfasts and started for the frozen river to inspect their plane. As they neared the landing they saw their red Bellanca gleaming in the early morning sun. They examined it carefully, then went up to the store to get a few days' supplies. The storekeeper was rather curious as to where they were going, but found out nothing except that they were going north. An hour later they took off under the admiring eyes of most of the town. The more I think about that, the less l believe it. said Jack. T can hardly believe it myself, re- plied Dick, hut we'll lind out for our- selves. Say. jack, get me the map will you? It's in the locker over there. 'W hen jack returned with the map. Dick spread it out on his knees and traced their course with his hnger. Wie ought to he at Hudson Bay by noon. if nothing happensf, he said after a moment's hesitation. just at noon the Bellanca circled down to a perfect landing on the ice in front of the trading post. The hoys had a lunch and took off again at one o'clock. This time. however, Tack Hew and after gaining altitude headed' northwest toward Alaska. It was about four o'cloek when the motor began to sputter and finally stopped altogether. Below was nothing but a barren ex- panse of snow with groups of trees and bushes clotting it here and there and off toward Alaska, mountains were visible in the last rays of the sun. jack held the plane in a steep glide toward one of the small open spaces. The plane came down fast and just as it was l51l THE CLYMPIAN about to strike, -lack pulled the stick all the way back. The ship dived into the snow, raising a great cloud of Hakes as it skidded forward onto its nose. After a moment of silence, Dick ap- peared in the door. Hey, jack. are you all right? he shouted. l think so. said jack. and a moment later appeared in the door beside Dick. A fine mess. said .lack grimly. Your telling mel replied Dick, as they climbed down to examine the extent of the damage. The landing gear was crushed up against the fuselage of the ship and the bottom of the fuselage seemed to be dented up somewhat. No other damage was visible in the snow. ' lt'll take at least ten days to fix thatf' said lack, after thev had finished. There was no time left to work on the plane. so the boys ate an early supper and went to bed. About twelve o'clock. Dick was awak- ened by a scratching on the metal of the plane. 'Fle listened for a minute. then . said softly. black, are you awake?' Yeah, answered lack. what do You suppose it is? l don't know, said Dick. climbing out of his bunk, but l'm going to End out. He picked up his rifie and flashlight and tiptoed to the window. He flashed the light toward the wing-tip where the sound seemed to be coming from and there in the ring of light made bv the Flash. stood the biggest bear he had ever seen. blinking stupidly in the direction of tl1e light. Hlack. come here quickfl whispered Dick. excitedly. Holy Mackerel. exclaimed Jack when he reached Dick's side. As if he had heard, the huge bear l52l turned and lumbered toward the cabin. Dick thrust the Flashlight into lacks shaking hands and leaped toward the door. VVith a quick jerk he had it open and taking quick aim, he fired. The bear staggered slightly, then came on toward the door. It seemed hours to Dick be- fore he snapped another cartridge into the chamber. Again he tired. and still the bear came on. Dick leaped back- wards and quickly slammed the door. Vllith another leap he was at the window again. The bear lunged angrily at the cabin door, shaking the whole plane. lf he ever gets in here XVC'1'C donef' said lack. The bear turned and started for the window. I-lhhe's coming right in the windowf, cried lack, stumbling back away from the window. At this sound the bear stopped and listened. ln that, second Dick raised the window and thrust his rilie into the startled bear's face. llfhaml The bear stood totteriug for nearly a minute. then fell forward against the plane--dead. lVhew, was ,lack's only comment to Dick. who leaned weakly against his bunk. l,et's take a look at him. said Dick. a moment later. Together the boys climbed down from the cabin after opening the badly bent door. Gee, said lack, if he'd ever gotten inside . . . There on the ground lay a huge grizzly that must have weighed at least four hundred pounds. The boys looked at him silently for a moment, then climb- ed shivering back into the plane to bed. As Dick stretched out in his bunk again. he said to himself, Impossible, eh ? CALVIN BURUQIGH, 43 FRESHMAN THE OLYMPIAN THE PRECIOUS MANUSCRIPTM It was just before the end of see- ond period and Miss Thomas was speak- ing to her English class. I know it is early, but I want to prepare you ahead of time. On june twelfth there will be an essay due, not less than seven hundred words and not exceeding one thousand. The topic of the essay will be, VVhat I Plan to Do During My Summer Vaca- tiou.' I will select the best according to ueatness. originality. and naturalnessg and the winning essay will be read in the assembly hall on the last day of school. This announcement was greeted with many ohs and ahs, and eveiryone seemed to talk at once. The hell rang for the end of the period and the class left the room. Two girls lingered behind, intent in their conversation. I-Iow I would like to have my essay read before the entire school. But I have no plans for this sunnner. I suppose I shall stay in the hot city all season, said Laura with in- dignation. But, said the other girl, named I-lelen Taylor, I am going to New York City this summer to visit my uncle, and what an exciting time I shall have! There will be the Empire State Building, Radio Ljity. and so many fascinating places to visit to tell of in my essay. A cold stare for talking so loudly from Miss Thomas end- ed the conversation' for the time being. But as Laura Mitchell hurried home from school that noon her thoughts were only on the essay, and as she rushed into the kitchen of her home a stream of chat- ter burst forth from her young lips. Take your time, dear, and tell me what you're trying to say, said her mother, and Laura was 06 again, with every last detail. Suddenly a frown ap- peared upon her pretty face. But what am I going to do this sum- mer ? VVe'll think about that later, you have plenty of time, said Mrs. Mitchell. By the way. a letter came for you this morn- ing, it's on the dining-room table. I think I recognized your cousin Anne's hand- writing. Laura went into the dining- room, and after being gone about two minutes, returned. as elated as before. 'iJlXl'I1lC has invited me to the farm for a month of this summer's vacation l said Laura. Ancl now, said her mother, as en- thusiastic as Laura, you know what to write about for your English essay. That evening found Laura Mitchell and Helen Taylor intent upon writing about summer vacations. For the next two weeks it was the topic of conversa- tion in school. By this time both girls had finished their essays and felt confi- dent that each had written the better work. Laura. after finishing hers, won- dered where she could keep the precious manuscript until it was due. After care- ful consideration she tncked it away neat- ly in the side pocket of her new suitcase. 'lThere, she said. as she locked her case, I won't have to worry about that for a long time. Little did she realize what this incident would mean to her later. School work continued as usual and the days passed quickly for the girls and 'Tune twelfth was drawing near. Five days before the compositions were due, most of them had been passed in. One afternoon Laura said to her mother, I think I'll get my composition and take it to school. Now where did I put it? Oh. of course, in the desk. She searched the desk in vain. VVhere could she have put it? She searched every corner of the house with her family's help, but to no avail. Laura cried herself to sleep many nights after and in school she had to listen to Helen Taylor tell of her vaca- tion and how hopeful she was of win- ning the contest. School would soon be over and Laura began to think of her summer vacation l53l THE OLYMPIAN and the wonderful time she would have with Anne on the farm. She was to leave on the fourteenth, after the close of school. Laura, said her mother one evening, why don't you take your suitcase out and clean it? It's only three days until you leave. Laura left the room to do as her mother suggested. a bit sulky, the thrill gone out of the trip because of the lost manuscript. She retrieved the key from her dresser and began unlocking her suit- case. The lid snapped open and Lo! and behold! the familiar white sheets of l1er essay appeared before her startled eyes! She knelt over the pages and began read- ing' the lines. Laura's spirits soared and she ran downstairs to tell her family of The principal of the school was just rising. It was the last day of school. Today is the day we've all been wait- ing for. The best essay has been selected. You all remember our English teacher told us the best essay would be chosen for naturalness. That is why this one was chosen. Many others were also ex- cellent but not as hne as Miss Laura Mitchellisf' Everyone was surprised and glad for Laura, and as the familiar essay was read aloud. she 'felt it was the happi- est moment of her life. And, continued the principal. nl wish to announce that Miss Helen Taylor received honorable mention from the judges. At the close of school, Helen came up to Laura and shook her hand. You de- served the prize, Laura, but didn't you the glad news. The next morning Laura sci Z! 'UUUCY P1526 Ol' ?1UY!!!i1l2fH Mitchell walked to school on air with her head high and the precious manu- script tucked securely beneath her arm. She passed it in to Miss Thomas on the very day it was due. No, said Laura proudly, only a mil- lion dollars worth of glory. THERESA SULLIVAN, 43 MIGHT IS. RIGHT The snow fell down in a veil of white, The branches bent 'neath their heavy load, Softly, gently, a blanket at night Covered the iields, the roofs, and the road. The sun shone down on the world next day, On a world with its sins all covered. The people rejoiced and knelt to pray, Vlfhile about them the enemy hovered. Then down the hills shot their men on skis And ruined a Russian divisiong The orders were. Fight men! Fight if you please, Or our maps will need a revision! The world was stripped of its white disguise, And its sins lay exposed to the heaven. There was no remedy in Godys eyes. He'd said, Forgive, thou shalt be 'torgiv'n.,' Son Christ, thought God, didn't die in vain, Although there are those who believe it. And Truth, crushed to earth, shall rise again, just open your hearts and receive it. NIARGARAT VBEECROFT, '40 l54l THE CLYMPIAN TH E 'IlIIIRTE.EN CHIIVI ES 'KOh, dear, I wonder what time it is ! The time happened to be half past eleven at night. The place was a church in Boston, Massachusetts. At midnight the janitor always rang the tower bell. This night was the dark- dullest night that had ever passed during his forty years of service. Noth- ing had happened. No one had asked the way home. This was boring to a man who was used to having things happen. At last! Midnight! Then bed. VVhen I think of all those stairs to climb, my bones start to creak. Oh, well. I might as well fret it over with. I3 One, two, three. four. Oh. I shouldn't count. it may mean that it is my death walk. This building seems to creep with mystery tonight. The bell rang clear and far that night. Twelve times it rangg and then--silence. Suddenly the janitor jumped! 'Whihat was that I heard? Another dong? It couldnlt be possible, I didn't ring the bell again. But, there it was g a thirteenth chime where there should have been only twelvef, The old man shivered in his boots. I-Ie thought to himself. Could it be my sins paying me back, or could it be the devil trying to steal my soul? Before he knew what was happening, his house loomed into sight. I-Ie acted so strangely that his wife asked him what was the matter? I-Ie answered, Either my sins are catching up with me, or the devil is mighty near my heelsf, His wife laughed and said, Stop fool- ing yourself. Hurry up and come to bed, I'm tired. For the rest of the night the old man remained awake, thinking about his sins, such as not going to church two weeks ago. The next night his wife had all she could do to persuade him to go to work. In the end she finally had to go with him. All that evening Tom, the janitor, kept looking in back of him. peeking a1'ound the corners. anad listening for strange noises. Finally midnight came! Tom wondered, XVill the same thing happen tonight? It did! just like the night before except that two people ran home instead of one. Tom's wife was so frightened that she stayed in bed for a week afterwards. Tom tinally decided to tell a detective this story. Isle told four detectives and all but one laughed at him. The one who didn't laugh was Mr. Gault. Mr. Ganlt asked Tom to tell every- thing that had happened those two nights. Tom did and added that he thought it really was the devil trying to steal his soul. Mr. Gault laughed at that and said that he would solve the mystery in forty- eight hours. He also told Tom that he would go to the tower at midnight and see if it had really happened. Night came. Dark! Still! Silent! Tom was peeping all around him as he had the night before, expecting some- thing to jump out at him from some dark place. Then Tom rang the bell. One, two, three. four. hve, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. eleven, twelve. Silence! Bong ! There it was. The thirteenth chime had rung again. Mr. Gault was so surprised that he jumped out of the chair that he was sit- ting in and let his favorite pipe fall to the floor. He looked at Tom and this is what met his gaze: iss THE CJLYMPIAN An old man who was holding his head, quaking in his shoes, knocking his knees, popping his eyes, and slowly sink- ing to the floor. It was such a funny sight that Mr. Gault roared until tears were streaming down his eheeks and dropping on his vest. This frightened Tom all the more but finally he became quiet. Mr. Gault took Tom home and went baek to the tower for a private investiga- tion. This is what he found. 011 the rim of the bell he found three small indenta- tions. But what made them? Not the weather. VVell, what did make them? That was what Mr. Gault had to find. VVhen Tom eame to the tower in the morning, Mr. Gault asked, By the way, Tom. who lives across the street? Tom answered, Oh, just some College boys. They come over and talk to me some timesf, That's all for now, said Mr. Gaull. But it was not all. Mr. Gault went aeross the street and asked the names ol' the people who roomed there with windows facing the street. He jotted these down in a small notebook. The ones that he thought most about were a 'Xkientworth Brown and a Robert Dun- bar. They were always up to some mis- chief or another. The next step that M r. Gault took was to search the rooms of these two boys. He looked high and low in VVinnie's room ClVentworth Browns roomj, but nothing came to view, but in Dunbar's he found one thing-the thing he was looking for-a gun. Robert Dunbar had been eramming for exams. The bell at midnight had dis- turbed his studying so much that he had sought revenge. The revenge was ear- ried out by his shooting at the bell and making it ring another time. No one has ever been able to think out a better way to seek revenge and make a person feel as if he were going insane. That was how Tom had felt and you may be sure that he was glad to find out what made the extra chime.

I56I FIQLIX JACQUES, '43 THE CJLYMPIAN jnxrs GREAT SURPRISE One day in early june, .lim Collins, a boy of about fourteen years of age, was walking along the lonely road to the gen- eral store. The general store was at the junction where the road which led to Sweetwater, j'im's home town, meets the road which leads to Blairtown. As he walked along he heard someone call- ing his name. He looked around and saw his friend, Pat Donavan, running to- ward him. VVhen Pat reached Jim, he waited to catch his breath. Have 'ou heard the news? askcd . , 3 Pat excitedly. VVhat news ? asked Jim loudly. Ku f v X ' ' VK hy I uke Melton saw 1 mountain ' 4 Y C C K. lion out behind his barn, was the answer. A mountain lion? Gosh. what did he do ?', VVell, said Pat, he ran into his house to get his gun, and when he came back the critter was gone. Gone, but where? Lions don't disap- pear in thin airf' remarked Jim. However, Pat insisted that Luke couldn't nnd hide nor hair ot the beast. By this time they had reached the store where many men had gathered to talk about the lion. Jim went into the store and ordered the things he wanted, while 'Pat stayed outside to talk with the gang. VVhen jim came out of the store, the gang had laid plans to go hunting for the lion that afternoon. Jim and 'Pat hur- ried home to dinner, while the rest of thel boys, who lived near the general store, laid more plans for the afternoon. All the boys were to bring some sort of a weapong some had guns, and others had bows and arrows, or clubs. Wfhen Jim reached home, he rushed into the house and shouted, Mom, get my dinner ready. we're going hunting tnis afternoon. b c b Gracious son, what are you going to hunt, asked his mother. Mountain lionsf, said Jim. Where are there any mountain lions around here ? asked his mother sarcastic- allv. Luke Melton saw one out in back of his barn, this morning. XVell, you be careful, and don't get hurt. I've got to visit the Donavansf' said his mother. i O, K. have a Wood time. mother, ' - b 99 said jim. Good-bye. jim finished his dinner, and hurried to the road where Pat was waiting. The two went to the general store where the gang of boys were waiting for them. All set, said jim. You bet, they all shouted at once. Then let's go, cried one of the boys. Off they went to hunt the mountain lion. The boys hunted all afternoon, and though they saw some tracks they couldn't find the animal. lt was late when jim got home and his supper was getting cold. He ate slowly. telling his mother about the fun he had had during the afternoon. Late that night his mother sent jim to the store for some meat. VVhen he left his house Iim's dog, Shep, started to follow him, but Jim sent him back to the house. VVhen jim reached the store he bought the meat, and started home. He left the store at about quarter past nine. As he reached a lonely stretch of road he looked back. There about twenty yards behind him. he saw two shining eyes. and immediately he thought of the mountain lion. He quickened his pace, but didn't run. for he knew that if he ran the lion would be on him within a few bounds. jim then climbed a barbed- wire fence, and started through a Held. just then the moon came up from behind a cloud and jim looked around and saw a large. tawny form crawl under the l57l THE OLYMPIAN fence. The frightened boy' then took out his pocket knife, and prepared to die bravely. During this time the beast was getting nearer and nearer. There about one hun- dred yards ahead of Jim was his house. The boy started to run and as he reached his steps, the meat was grabbed from his hands and the animal trotted behind the barn with the meat. Jim ran into the house and told his father about the lion. jim and his father came running out with their guns and went behind the barn. There. sitting under a tree eating the meat. was -Iim's dog. Shep. ,lim's father looked at him and laughed. mountain lion, I-Impf' R A v Mo ND Kia N NEALLY FM GLAD I'lXfl AN AMERICAN Sometimes I used to envy The people across the sea.

Moiumgig SHAPIRO, '41 REACHING FUR THE STARS By Nora llfaln The article which Mrs. VVahn wrote in the july. 1939, issue of The Saturday Evening Post entitled, Marching '1'hrough the Mulherriesf' was read to me. Wlhen 1 noticed this hook hy the same author, 1 decided on it immedi- ately as the one for this second hook report due in my class work on this date. This is the story of the author's four years under the Nazi Hag, and tells how she learned to understand and love the German people. and to have pity for them in their present plight. Mrs. Vllahn was born and raised as a Quaker in Pennsylvania. For ,thirteen years she lived with her hushand in China. and in 1934 she went. with him to Germany. She has given a fine tribute to the people in Germany as she found them and also told truly of Hitlerism. She recorded countless numhers of experi- ences in her diary which she carefully kept while there. It is difficult reading for most of us, hut I should most cer- tainly recommend that all read this book for you will End her visits interesting and her description delightful. You will feel that you have personally met many of her friends and you will have seen pictures of Germany that you never get in geography. F1mNCizs lnvmc: 1591 THE OLYMPIAN KELLYSIQ One night as l sat in Kellys. I spied a roughly clad fellow sitting a few seats away from me, apparently trying hard to chew a large helping of roast beef and mashed potatoes. There was nothing especially different about his looks, ex- cept that he seemed to be enjoying his meal a little more than the rest of us. Kellys was not the best place in Fall River to eat, nor was it the worst. Some- times the spinach was a little sandy and the coffee a little muddy but outside of that l could say only good for the place. The last of his roast beef tucked away. the man called for a piece of raisin pie. The waiter went to the cupboard, re- turned with a big piece of pie, and set it on the table. The man lined it up with his fork, whacked off a big chunk, and crammed it into his mouth. I-Innn, mighty good pie you have here. The waiter replied with a broad grin, Thank you, sir. The second and third chunks went down easily, but on the fourth slice arose a turmoil. Something, to be sure, was wrong. But something had to go wrong at Kellys every so often: probably a chipped plate or something even more ridiculous. Nevertheless, Kelly, a good business man as he was, quickly appeared on the scene. Sure enough, there in the middle of the piece of pie, nestled be- tween a couple of big raisins, lay a big, brown, dead cockroach. Kelly began to sputter. as only Kelly can sputter, I'1n. Tm. aw-, awfully sorry, old fellowf' this is the First time anything like this has ever happened in here. Kelly had his tongue in his cheek. The man raved and pounded his list on the table. W'hen I order raisin pie. VW ESTAURANT I don't want pork chops! Kelly was beginning to get excited. Already eus- tomers were leaving their seats Zl.11Cl eas- ing toward the door. In ten minutes the place would be closed for the night if this man couldnit be quieted. But he went right on yelling, And you expect me to pay for this meal? VVhy, I ought to go out and tell them all about this 'feeding cockroaches to people. Those words struck close to Kellyis heart, Man you can forget the check, the meal is yours. Wlell, the fellow was glad that he did not have to pay for his meal, but still muttering he took his hat and disappeared through the door. Kelly breathed a sigh of relief. That, I thought, was the end of the drama, but not for long. Hardly had I Hnished my own piece of raisin pie, keeping careful look- out for strangers, when a policeman burst into the restaurant, dragging our late companion behind him. Hey, Kellyf, said the cop, what's going on in here P Kelly sadly told the story, concluding and so the guy had us coldf' The officer wasn't quite so credulous and with one hand he thrust a match box into Kelly's grasp. Kelly opened the box and looked inside. I-Iis face grew red with increasing Irish rage, but before he could explode the cop came to his rescue. There's yur evidence, Kelly. The department has been look- ing for this fellow for six weeks. I-Ie's been sponging off restaurants for the last two months with that same box of cock- roaches.

Sam thought ahout his early life. Tle was an old man now and he had just hegun to swing a haton a little while ago, hut he was happy that at last his dream of a musical career had come true. All his life he had wanted to hold a hatou in his hand and heat out the time on the music rack.

M .N in 1 aint as ts jug: ' Biddeford High suffered one of their most disastrous football seasons in years. winning only one and tying one game against eight defeats. The team was handicapped throughout the season hy lack of suitable replacements and found themselves unahle to cope with heavier opponents when the starting line-up started to tire. BIDIDEFORD Q61 WESTBROOK 1101 Although Biddeford pushed a much lighter VVestbrook team all over Alumni Field for four periods, Lady Luck refused to smile and Wlestbrook slipped out on top. Biddeford scored hrst when Stebbins went over into the promised land on a wide end sweep from the two-yard line, and led until late in the third period when a fumble in the Biddeford hacklield paved the way for the VVestbrook touchdown. Although the try for the extra point was blocked, an alert VVest- 'brook back caught the entire Biddeford team napping and raced around the end after scooping up the ball for the point that gave VN-festlirook a lead they never relinquished. Vtfesthrook added an unnecessary three points late in the game on a field goal from the twenty-yard line. BIDDEFORD COD PORTLAND C131 For two periods a lighting Orange and Black eleven looked like state cham- pions when it ran roughshod over a heavier Portland team only to tire i11 the last half and watch Portland push over two hard earned touchdowns. Twice in the first half, Biddeford drove inside the Portland ten-yard line only to End Lady Luck again looking the other way. The first time they lost the ball on a fumble on the five-yard line and on the second occasion time ran out when they were only seven yards from pay dirt. This game, more than any other, proved that Biddeford lacked the replacements so necessary to check their opponents in the late stages of the game. BIDDEFORD C01 DEERING fl9J In this game at Deering. Biddeford was outclassed hy a heavier and more resourceful Deering team, although battling on pretty near even terms for a half. Deering scored about a half minute before the first half ended o-n a steady drive down the held. The Biddeford line tired in the second half and Deering pushed over two more touchdowns to tuck the game safely away. This game, as was the Portland game, was played under the lights. 1 A s - H , s THE OLYMPIAN FOOTBALL BIDDEFORD C181 EDVVARD LITTLE C01 Displaying one of the greatest aerial offensives ever seen on a local gridiron, a fighting Biddeford team looked like state champions as it swept Edward Little off its feet. Biddeford was red hot as it went out to win one as a going-away present for Coach McKinery, who had resigned to accept a better position in New York State. BIDDEFORD C61 CHEVE-RUS C131 After leading the Fighting Irish for two periods, Biddeford tired badly and permitted Cheverus to score twice to gain a hard earned victory. Biddeford scored firsti when Pete Mantis crossed the goal line after a thirty-live yard jaunt through the Cheverus line, but superior replacements again told the story in the second half as the Biddeford line buckled under the smashes of 'Moe' Denbow, giant Cheverus backlield ace. BIDDEFORD C01 SOUTH PORTLAND C01 ,For the only time during the season, Biddeford was outplayed badly in the first half as it fought gamely to chalk up its second victory of the year over an unusually weak version of South Portlaud's Red Riot. Biddeford reversed its procedure of previous games by displaying its best offensive in the second half, and nearly pulled the game out of the fire only to fail miserably when the chips were down. The game was marked by the brilliant goal line stands of the Bidde- ford line in the first half. 'BIDDEFORD C61 KENNEBUNK C141 Although outplaying the Bunkies in every department of the game, Bid- deford was forced to accept another defeat when a blocked punt and a fumble paved the Way for two Kennebunk touchdowns. Biddeford scored early on a Cal- lahan to McNabb pass, but the lead was short-lived as the Kennebunk line crashed through to block a Biddeford kick for a touchdown and a pass for the extra point was completed. The only measure of satisfaction that Biddeford gained was that it succeeded in bottling up Johnnie Babine, one of the! state's best backs, through- out the game. BIDDEFORD C61 SANFORD C141 For two periods a Fighting Biddeford High School team, on the strength of two determined goal-line stands and a steady lifty-yard march climaxed by a touchdown pass to Lemire, led a highly touted Sanford l-ligh School eleven, o to 0, but cracked wide open in the second half as the Plushtowners, led by Tetreau, diminutive backfield ace, pushed over two touchdowns and kicked both points. BIDDEFORD C61 ST. LOUIS C131 The Orange and Black played its worst game of the season and bowed to a smaller and much lighter eleven representing St. Louis lfligh School. Louis Scored the deciding touchdown in the last period when a Biddeford pass went awry. BIDDEFORD CO1 'FHORNTON ACADEMY C191 After nearly two periods of battling the Southwestern Maine Confeience Champs to a standstill, Biddeford folded up before the Thornton power in the annual holiday battle. Slippery Hngers in the Orange and Black backtield paved the way for two Maroon and Gold touchdown marches, while the third came on a long pass from Fitanides to Brownlee.

BASKETBALL IQETTERMEN Murray Stebbins, Cajvfailz Peter Mantis Daniel Reardon George Simard Robert Reardon Eugene McNabb Steve Spirounias Michael Rizas George Spirounias Christo Antonalcos Paul Cabana Reynald Ayotte Biddeford displayed unusual strength on the polished surface and completed a successful season by chalking up eleven victories against live defeats. The crown- ing achievement oi this year's team was an invitation to the llfestern Maine Tour- nament, a feat that has not been accomplished by any high school team since the state championship live of 1924. BIDDEFORD i31j OLD ORCHARD 120D Biddeford started its season oit on the right foot by easily trouncing a weak Old Orchard team at the local ff fm. For three periods the frame was close, but ' . by D ' l m . Biddeford uulled awa ' in a last ieriod drive. , 1 5 1 BIDDEFORD 1411 KENNEBUNK H301 The Orange and Black journeyed to Kennebimk and had a rather easy time, posting a 41-30 victory at the Bunlcies' expense. 'BIDDEFORD f30J YVELLS f20l Although trailing at the end of the third period, Biddeford came back strong to easily outseore the lVells quintet for the remainder of the game. l73I HI THE OLYMPIAN BASKETBA LL BIDDEFORD 11,21 CHEVERUS 1211 ln a purely defensive battle, Biddeford dropped their lirst game of the year to the defending Southwestern Maine Champs. Although leading at the end of the hrst period, the Biddeford basketeers were unable to find the hoop consistently enough to stay in the running with the Fighting Irish. BIDDEFORD 1231 VVESTBROOK 1191 ln another tight defensive game, Biddeford managed to return to the victory path by edging out a victory over VVestbrook, although Westbrook nearly upset the apple cart by a strong last period drive. BIDDEFORD 1321 TRAIP 1271 Although trailing at half-time, the Orange and Black managed to find their shooting eyes during the third period and pace away from the visiting five from Kittery. BIDDEFORD 1281 Biddeford took Traip into camp for the second time of the season on the l:itfer's home court after being given a hard battle for a half. TRAIP 1141 BIDDEFORD 1321 ln a hair-raising game, a fighting Biddeford live managed to outlast Sanford and pull away in the last live minutes for a comfortable victory. SANFORD 1231 BIDDEFORD 1111 THORNTON 1311 Biddeford picked its first game of the annual series with Thornton to have its only off-night of the season. This fact, coupled with the small playing surface of the Saco court, forced Biddeford to accept its second defeat of the year. BIDDEFORD 1321 SANFORD 1281 In another spine-tingling contest that saw Biddeford build up a comfortable lead only to have Sanford whittle it down to almost even terms in the last period, Biddeford showed promise of being a possible entree for the annual Southwestern Maine Tournament. BIDDEIFORD 1271 CHEVERUS 1381 After creeping up to within two points of a highly favored Cheverus team, the Biddeford defense blew wide open and allowed Cheverus to hang up another hard earned victory. This was the second time during the season that Biddeford bowed to the Fighting Irish. BIDDEFORD can wEs'rBRooK 1241 Biddeford took to the road again and managed to earn a rather easy victory at the Paper City. Biddeford led all the way and was never threatened, BIDDEFORD 1221 THORNTON 1151 After trailing for three periods, a lighting Biddeford team finally found itself in the last period and evened up the series with their arch rivals by posting a 22-15 win in a thrill packed game. FNDDEFORD 1351 KENNEBUNK 1331 fn one of the most exciting games ever witnessed on a local court. a lighting Kennebunk live forced Biddeford into an overtime period before bowing before the local club for the second time this season.

Although the Alumni managed to chalk up a victory hy only one point it was quite evident that they were carrying the high school just to make the game interesting for the fans. TOUR N A M ENT GA ME BIDDEFORD 1153 PORTLAND 1311 For two- full periods, and part of the third, a Hghting Biddeford team nearly scaled the heights as it threatened to kick over the well-known apple cart and upset a highly touted Portland live, favorites to cop the Wlestern Maine diadeni.
