THE MAGNIET 17 — ATHLETIC Within a very few days after the opening of school the football team commenced to practice. William Lane, who coached the team so success- fully two years ago, was appointed coach this year. wv Four members of last year’s team are to be found again this season, Captain Barrett, George Shields, Sherman Platt and George Merrick hav- ing made their ‘L.”” These men form the nucleus of a team, which under the skillful hand of Coach Lane, should do great things on the gridiron. 2 The first game of the season was scheduled for Sept. 27, but no team could be found for that date. ft fi evlem|{a wW Milford High School came up here on Oct. 4th, and we played our opening game. Neither'team put up much of a struggle, although L. H. S. got two touchdowns, and Milford one. The touchdown on the part of Mil- ford was allowed, owing to some error in the coaching of forward passes, the Leominster team making no effort to stop the Milford runner. Never- the-less the game showed up some of our weak points, and knocked some of the rough corners off the new and inexperienced players. The final score was 12 to 7 in our favor.

16 THE MAGNET yee V aS A most hearty welcome to all our friends, both old and new. During the coming year we sincerely hope to make the acquaintance of many others, and we hope to receive and return helpful criticisms in the same manner, as In previous years. The Blue and White, (South Bethlehem, Pa. High School). You have a very attractive paper, although we think that the arrangement of your differ- ent departments might be improved upon. Where is your Exchange column? The Student's Review, (Northampton High School). The commence- ment number of the Review was excellent; your Exchange column was ex- ceptionally good. The Hopkins Arms, (Hopkins Academy, Hadley, Mass.). A few cuts . for the various departments of your paper would be a great improvement. Why do you not criticize your exchanges instead of merely acknowledging them? The Oak, Lily, and Ivy, (Milford, Mass HighSchool). You have a well appointed paper, and the contents of your commencement number were especially good. The Orange Peals, (Orange, Mass. High School). The Peals is full of very interesting material. Your cuts are good, and the ‘ Will” of Class IgI3 was fine. The Picket, (Shepherd College, West Virginia). The Picket is a very in- teresting paper. The description of Green Knob, in the May issue, was particularly good, as was the poem entitled, ‘‘ Shepherdstown.” We failed, however, to find the Exchange column. The Record, (Newburyport Mass. High School). Zhe Recora is about the largest high school paper which we have received, and contains excel- lent material. Your graduation essays were remarkably well written. The College Signal, (Amherst, Mass.). Your paper is a very interesting one. We especially congratulate on having the largest entering class in the history of the college. Among the other exchanges received were: Zhe Quarterly Bulletin of the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy, and the Harvard Alumni Bulletin.

Grayson, Milford; Timer, Leroy Barrett; Linesman, Maston, Leominster. Time, 10 and I2 minute periods. Attendance, 500. w The Worcester Trade School next offered themselves for sacrifice and, owing to good consistent playing, L. H. S. defeated them to the tune of 25 too. This game showed great improvement over the former one. w The managers of the team wish to express their most sincere thanks to those members of the school who so obligingly gave their services in get- ting the field ready for the opening game. Their true school spirit only being overshadowed by their spirit of good fellowship. Also Mr. Clarke and Mr. Roberts are to be commended for their valuable suggestions and practical ideas which were gladly and thankfully accepted. Joun E. McDONNELL, ’15.
