FUOTBALL TARTING on the comeback trail, The Green Wave broke even in the won and lost columns with three wins and three losses. Headed by our All-Scholastic guard, Jay Abrams, whose punting and tackling will long be remembered by our opponents, the Owls showed some of the Hght of former Lynbrook elevens. The team was captained by Abrams and quarterback Rich Maf- fucci. The backfield consisted of such stars as john Burkle, who backed up the line, George Keenan and Armando Maiorino, both of whose punt runbacks thrilled the crowds, Al Bueffel and Gus Buttner, who alternated at fullback, Ed Doremus and Bill Karas, whose passes and end runs ate up valuable yardage. At the ends were Bill Carl and Jack O'Shaughn- essy, while Ray Scratchio, Henry Jaworowski, and Red Dougan were the fast charging tackles who Frorlf Kaufman Izisman Whittombe Heytn Francis, Fchl, Maiorino.

HE LYN NEWS, with its famous and ever-present Penny Column, marches on Despite the enormous financial barrier set up by the present high cost of white paper, every other Wednesday throughout the year a complete issue of the Lyn News ap- peared. Many strange and unforeseen news stories and editorials had to be coped with by editor-in-chief Newton Dadirrian and his staff. Air-raid alarms, conservation of paper, savings stamps and bonds, air raid wardens, Red Cross, and defense schools, all figured in the headlines, besides the usual subjects covered by a school paper. Other additions were occasional articles for the Nassau Daily Review-Star school page. Credit is due to Ebba Duffy and Warren Stumpe for giving their all to keep the paper going. Also Mrs. North, literary advisor, and Mr. johnson, business advisor, gave much time and effort toward increasing its prestige. The large number of subscriptions from the Freshmen promises the Lyn-News a secure future. L YN-NEPVS Smhal-Poth, Smith, Dadirrian, Bali- 3 Iar: Holmes. Duffy, Mrs. North, Lffffdfgj' Arlzixur.

The Green and Gold started the season with wins over Malverne and Woodmere on successive weekends by scores of 6-o and 12-o. Keenan's 90- yard runback of a kickoff highlighted the Woodmere victory. The long jaunt to Bronxville did the boys no good, as they lost to the Westchester champs 12-o. They bounded back nicely, however, by trouncing Hicksville 21-14 the following week. Central, our traditional rival, proved too strong and we succumbed to them 26-7. We closed the season poorly as Southside defeated us in a fumbling contest. The season as a whole, however, marked a welcome change for the better. VARSITY CHEERLEADERS ITHOUT cheerleaders no football program would be complete. How the team needed them when losing a game! How everyone appreciated the sound of T-E-A-M yea! team! This yearls squad should be praised for its excellent work and effort.
