GIRLS’ TENNIS ’49 Alice E. Daughraty, Coach (irace lagazii Rackets were flasliiiig constantly and the Braintree High courts were seldom neglected last spring when the racket- happy Wainp lassies were preparing for the matches ahead of them. Cap- tain Janet Munroe proved to he an e.xcellent leader when she filled in her position as head of the tenids team. Aunty .Mice’s girls played eight matches this season, winning three (two to Wellesley and one to Needham ) and losing five. Janet Munroe, (cap- tain), Carol Moulton, Silvia Ripley, Alary Comeau, Judy Rohinson, Joyce Le A’angie and junior Muriel Norris were all winners when tennis letters were passed out hy Coach Daughraty. FACULTY MANAGERS AND COACHES Jeanne Johnson The success of athletic activities at H.H.S. d uring the past year has been due mainly to the excellent managers and coachitig staff which includes Miss Alice Daughraty, coach of the girls ' activities (field hockey, haskethall, and softball); . rigo LaTanzi, head coach of varsity football; Paul Toolin, coach of cross country and track; Principal James L. Jordan, director of the Rifle Club; Fran Mear, coach of varsity basketball; .Alton Perry, boys’ tennis; John Crowell, coach of fresh- man basketball and baseball; IL AVard Manghue, freshman football; AVilliam Foley and Edward Oakman, faculty managers. CHEERLEADERS .Alice E. Daughraty, Director Nancy -Allen “AA ' e’re from Braintree High School and no one could be prouder!” This has been the cry issuing from the nine peppy cheerleaders and their loyal Wampville supporteis. With the magnificant stadium and glamorous gym as inspiration, howling wind or snow never dampened the spirits of the fellas and girls who loyally sup- ported the pigskin and basketball out- ings. The nine toters of the blue mega- phones who spelled out Braintree were (B) Merylle-Lee Rhodes, (R) Rita (-’handler, (.A) Margie Stevens, (I) Nancy Jane .Allen, co-captain, (N) (linny Natolie, (T ) Dot Mahar, (R) -Alice Sweezy, (E) Connie Pratt, co- captain, (E) Sue Giles.

BASEBALL ’49 Fran Mear, Coach Fred Nelson Braintree High’s ’4!) baseball team be- gan the season facing a schedule which featured powerhouses Wellesley and I5rockton. Starting slow, the boys lost a well played, hard fought game to Wellesley aud were unable to find the winning combination until they handed a decisive 8-0 licking to ( ' anton. They continued to play in hard luck until near the end of the season when they found themselves and wop three out of the last four games. This rally started with the loss of a nij) and tuck heart- breaker to Brockton, followed by three smashing victories over Weymouth, ( ' anton, and North (Quincy. TRACK ’49 Taul V. Toolin, Coach Everett MacLennan As usual. Coach Toolin’s track team came through with another fine year, winning all its dual meets, placing sec- ond to Brockton in the South Shore meet and making a fine showing in the State meet at Newton. Alan Carlsen, Dick IMacCormack, Hugh Huleatt and Frank White showed fine form all year in the distance runs while Bob Brooks and Dave White were consistent dash winners. Don itagliano and Fred Bickford were the dependable shot putters. Bob Dee displayed promise in the high jump, and Paul Trapp, Dick Brickley, and Ken Williams were con- sistent point winners in the other field events. BOYS’ TENNIS ’49 Alton C. Perry, Coach Fra n eaney The racket men did not have a too successful time of it in 1949. They bowed to every school on the schedule with the sole e.xception of North (Quincy whom the boys defeated not once but twice. Practically the entire squad was lost through graduation. I ' id ' ortunately, the status of boys ' tennis here is not very healthy. Coach Perry cannot produce a winning com- bine unless a goodly number of athletes are interested enough to try out for the team. Cndergraduates, it is up to you to put tennis on its feet. Co to it.
