18 THE GREEN AND WHITE formances will know what High School Seniors can do in that line, and considering the coach and the cast, the class are sure that these plays will be superior to others in every way. The Class of 1921 is about to graduate. We can well expect their work in the world to conform, as it always has, to their motto, “Honor lies in Honest Toil.” E. SANFORD. ’21. TO THE SENIORS Here’s to the Seniors so bright and so fair, We are the class that will work with great care. Soon we will leaving be. Won’t that be sad? Don’t you suppose they will be very glad? HELEN SYLVESTER. •ywYWUWwwwwwwwuuAV wwwYWYS ATHLETICS ij At the beginning of the season the spirit of base ball was inflamed in the heart of every pupil in the Colt Memorial High School. Early in April the school assembled to elect a manager, and William Rinaldi, class of 1921, was elected. Mr. Albert Hudson, the Agricultural Instructor, offered his services as coach. Mr. Hudson was captain and pitcher of his team when he was at Rhode Island State College. Prof. Wisbey of the Chemistry Department, also offered his services as faculty manager. About the middle of April an athletic committee was elected, consisting Of four boys and four girls, a girl and a boy being chosen from each class. Those chosen were: Mary Connors, William Serbst, Seniors; Norman Vermette, Charlotte Le-Clair, Juniors; Margaret Nerone, Edward Rinaldi, Sophomores; Thomas Kennedy, Arleen Holm. Freshmen. A little later the veterans of the 1920 base ball team met and elected Frank Rinaldi captain. Practice soon started and over thirty boys responded to the call. They were always on hand four days a week, and at least two and one half hours a day. Many ways were resorted to in order to raise money for the coming games. Candy was sold in the school at recess, and two entertainments were given during the season. These were: Professor Harrell on April 8, and “The Musical Bouquet” on May 11. All the pupils of the school showed their interest in some way; those who could not in a physical way did SO financially. The spirit of loyalty predominated over everything else and no matter where the team played, in town or out, there was always a group of “rooters,” especially girls, who helped a great deal in winning the game by their cheering. We played Our first game at Central Falls, Friday, April 15, most of the time in a pouring rain ; nevertheless, we went on to victory, and obtained our first scalp by a score of twelve to four. The second game was played against Warren, whom we succeeded in defeating by a score of ten to one. After this victory we had a little hard luck, losing three games in succession, New Bedford, South Kingston and Warwick. After these defeats we came back by defeating Central Falls a second time by a score of six to four. There are still tne following games to be played, and we expect to win a good part of them; May 27—Taunton at Bristol. June 1—C. M. H. S. at Warwick. June 7 New Bedford at Bristol. June 10—South Kingston at Bristol. June 17—C. M. H. S. at Taunton. June 22—Alumni. Mr. Hudson, Mr. Wisbey and Mr. Strong have done a great deal to help the team along, Mr. Hudson especially. He will long be remembered by every boy in the school. R. CARD. 21.
