Rage Sixteen THE RED AND GREEN work before them, but we think they deserve some credit. One Wednesday morning while singing our high school songs, one of the Sophomore girls said to a Junior: “I don’t see why they give one girl all the credit and leave the others out.” “Who do you mean?” queried the Junior. “Why, they are always singing about Alma Mater,” was the innocent reply. « « During Biology period Miss Baker asked a Soph boy: “Jimmie, where do bugs go in the winter?” “Search me,” said Jim. FRESHMAN NOTES Class Reporters: Mikiam Abelson.................A 1 Gertrude Van De Water..........B 1 The Freshman class of Glen Cove High School is not yet organized, but with all, the Freshmen have made themselves conspicuous both in and out of school. We cannot say much for their scholarship but their spirit is wonderful. They are the busiest little mites, always getting in the way of the upper classmen. Wherever you go—in the corridor, on the stairs—in the classroom—you will find the inevitable freshman grinning openly at you. On May 2, 1921, the B Biology class, consisting mainly of freshmen, went on a Botany hike to Appleby’s woods. The class was under the able supervision of Miss Baker, the Biology teacher. ALUMNI 1912 Genevieve Cocks is a clerk in the Nassau Union Bank. John Dunn is a priest of the Roman Catholic Church. Mary Germaine is a private secretary for a minister. Donald Mackenzie is an engineer in an aluminum factory in the South. Anna Mahon is married to a lawyer. Bertha Whiting is teaching at Cold Spring. 1913 Kathryn Cocks teaches Oral English in the Glen Cove High School. They built a camp fire and ate a light supper which consisted of frankfurters, rolls and cakes, while Miss Baker delved into the mysteries of Botany. Everyone had a good time, and looked forward to many other similar events. Their desire for hiking (or was it eating) was soon appeased, for on May 12th, the sewing class had their little expedition, when Miss Green and Miss Erskine were the chaperones. The class had an appetizing meal which consisted of about the same food as the one before. Then they were joined by the Junior tramps, who were also having a little outing on the same beach. Both parties joined forces and played games. All had a splendid time until it began to rain, when they all scrambled for the first place at the station. Some walked home and others waited for the trolley. These are the only two outings the Freshies have had, but they have tried to distinguish themselves in other ways. The freshman recitations in the Assembly on Friday are some of the best. The Freshman certainly made a mark for themselves in speaking when Miss Miriam Abelson, a member of their class won second prize in the annual prize speaking contest. This is the first member of a Freshman class ever to win a prize in the speaking contest. The Freshmen have tried for a place in athletics, but, of course, the choice was given to the more experienced classmen. However, if the promises of what they will do next year come true, our Freshman class will be transformed into a reliable Sophomore class. NOTES May Burns is a doctor, with her office in Glen Cove.

Page Eighteen THE RED AND GREEN FOOTBALL With the opening of school began the football season. What a sensation it was that first afternoon to see so many out on the field. Everyone wanted to throw the ball. How funny it seemed to try to throw the spiral pass! Captain Petroccit was seen talking over many of the problems with our coach. The first few days were spent in doing light work, but when the football material for the team had arrived, hard scrimmage began. Our coach, Mr. Gribbin had a hard time to pick a suitable back field. He wanted to keep Kabachnik on the end because of his good work there the year before. fter practicing for about a month, we received a challenge to play at Oyster Bay on October 2nd. Due to the presence of Dr. Mace of Port Washington, we were told to play only our first formation, but even this was too much for the Oyster Bay boys. With Wheeler, Kabachnik, Petroccia and Sheehan, in the back field, it seemed as if we were going to score one hundred to nothing. When Powers, Oyster Bay’s star halfback, carried the ball only once, and was heavily downed by Cohen on left end for a big loss, he immediately refused to carry the ball again. After forty minutes of one-sided playing, Glen Cove won by a score of thirty-seven to nothing. Now that we had won out first game of the season, we were determined to win the championship of Nassau County. The next Monday at 3:15 found us all on our field ready for practice, and the formation of new plays. Our next victim was Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn, to be played the coming Saturday. Because of the hard game they had played against us the year before, we were determined to defeat them. The day on which we motored to Adelphi was very warm. When the Brown and Gold eleven came upon the field, we were almost dumbfounded. What a husky bunch of men! We looked like midgets in comparison with them, but with a little encouragement from Mr. Gribbin, we were ready to begin our fierce battle. In the first eight minutes of play, Sheehan made two touchdowns. The old saying, “The heavier they are, the harder they fall” was certainly true. As soon as Kabachnik got his hand on the pigskin, they did not know where to run. Making gains of forty and fifty yards, four times did he carry the ball safely across for a touchdown. Dione, the right end of the Red and Green, was ripping the Adelphians out of the air right and left. In the last minute of the game, the forward pass was thrown by Sheehan to Cohen, which resulted in a touchdown. Thus we returned victoriously to Glen Cove with a score of forty-four to nothing. This overwhelming victory put such courage into our men that we were determined to defeat all the other teams. The next game, with Lynbrook on October 16th, was at Glen Cove. This was our first home game, and turned out to be a very easy one for the Red and Green. Lynbrook was stunned by Glen Cove’s line plunging and their stonewall line while on the defensive. The play was not very spectacular, except for the brilliant fake forward-pass of Kabachnik. This game resulted in another easy victory for Glen Cove, thirty-four to nothing. As we were to go to Port Washington next, we were taught new plays, that we might baffle our oU and bitterest enemy. The field was covered with cindeis, but this did not stop us. We had Port Washington always on the defensive. The game was another real walkav»«.v. j.'or every tackle the Glen Cove boys made, you could t ertr a Port man getting up groaning from his unexpected collision with the field. Port could not hold back our tackle plays. We marched from one side of the field to the other, smashing their line to pieces. The game finally resulted in another victory for us with the one-sided score of thirty-four to noth-
