The lack of reserve strength and experience proved to be the main stumbling blocks throughout the season. When co-captain L'Sonny Scardocci became ill and was unable to play, he left a vacancy which was never filled suc- cessfully. Discouraged by the loss of its co-captain and many injuries in key places, the team just couldn't instill itself with a burning desire to win. Constant shifting from one position to another to compensate for vacancies due to injuries left the boys in a state of confusion. Despite these many handicaps, the team showed hashes of brilliance. ln the Belmont game when Joe Fabiano broke off tackle for two touchdowns and the team had piled up a 19-0 half time lead, it looked as though the crimson and gray had finally found itself, but the boys ran out of gas and were crushed 27-19. Against Braintree when Joe Fabiano, on the first play of the game, went the distance and Frank Fitz- henry threw a touchdown pass to Ed Hickey, Dedham's chances looked good, but the same thing happened and Braintree won 26-13. In the Norwood game, Allan Haynes played a magnificent defensive role and almost single hand- edly held Norwood down to a 6-O half time lead, but again the second half jinx caught up with Dedham and they were routed. Even though the team failed to win a game, let it never be said that they didn't try. - L, .1 -,,..tj, I N... 2,4 , M F if E 1 fuk M fJ Alb

Second crow: Marion Findlen, Jean Flannery, Jane Ryan, Mary Lou Brown.i Wearing their new uniforms of red and gray wool the girls of the cheer team loyally cheered at all the football and basketball games. The 1954 cheer team won a tro- phy at the Westwood competition and placed second in two other com- petitions. The biggest dance of the year was the competition when the cheerleaders were hostesses to twelve other schools. Besides the wonderful memories of the football and basketball games, the Thanksgiving rally, rides on the basketball bus, the Bay State Tourney, and competitions, the girls will long remember the Sports Banquet, at which Jean Flannery, Marion Findlen, Anne Jones and Ruth Corey received sweaters.
