HOWE HIGH INDIANS Football The Howe High Indians, coached by Mr. Lampson and assisted by Mr. Federico, had a mediocre season this year. The team opened the season unofficially by playing a strong Clinton eleven in the annual Hudson Jamboree. The Indians displayed great spirit and fortitude, in tying Clinton, 0 to 0. The official opener was Methuen, and Howe dropped a hard 26 to 6 count. The boys next met St. Charles of Waltham, whom they downed by an easy 25 to 7 score. The next encounter on the rostrum found Howe journeying to Dra- cut, where they lost 15 to 0. The next game brought a favored Northbridge High to Howe, but the rejuvenated warriors upset their opponents, 13 to 7. The following week found Howe at Lexington, and again came out on top with a close 7 to 6 upset. Then Tewksbury invaded Howe, only to be stopped by a 28 to 7 win for Howe. . A strong Concord team defeated a fighting Howe delegation, 25 to 0. The following week brought an unexpected setback by Johnson High of North Andover, 15 to 6. Howe then entertained Burlington, by defeating them 20 to 6. In the annual “Thanksgiving grid battle,” Howe displayed superb teamwork to defeat a valiant Chelmsford team by a score of 26 to 6. Though such stars as “Hezzy” Hulett, “Hank” Wilson, “Billy” Cu- sick, ‘Bobby’? Corkum, ‘‘Chester’”’ Sylvester, Dale Crandall, Gordon Gur- ney, “Charlie” Condon, and Paul Sullivan, will be leaving Howe’s lineup, many replacements will be found among the remaining members of the squad, with co-coptains Wentworth and Baroldi to lead them.
