Intramurals The most extensive intramural program in the history of the Mount was put into effect during the ’51-’52 school year. The touch football league proved to be a great success, with many of last year’s varsity squad participating. The men played with a spirit of fire and determination that marks all truly great competitors. Third Bruté, with “Ace” Adams and “Herky’’ Dawes at the helm, won the championship with 10 wins and 1 loss, while Second McCaffrey, lead by former varsity halfback Ed Ward, placed second with 9 wins, 1 loss, and 1 tie. Third DuBois and First McCaffrey both had fine teams, coming in third and fourth respectively. At the end of the football season, all-star teams were chosen from each class. The senior all-star team had little difficulty defeating the freshmen while the sophomores won a close, hard-fought game from a It’s gonna be close. 128

Tennis After a one year lapse, the Mount tennis team returned to action in 52. Much of the credit for reviving this spirit at the Mount goes to Dr. Dillon who encouraged the form- ing of a team and its entry into the Mason-Dixon Con- ference. In the absence of a coach, the members of the team have helped each other. Ed Wyatt, who is considered one of the most promising players in the state, has been particularly helpful along these lines. All the members of the team except Frank Grubic, a junior, are freshmen and sophomores. With young talent Camilletti makes a vicious return as teammate Keene showing the promise that this year’s squad has, the next looks on. few years should see the Mount as a leading contender in tennis competition.

The champs ended with an unblemished record of 11 consecutive victories, made possible by the excellent playing of Headley, Evers, Murphy, Ronan and Lyons. Third Mac finished a strong second with ten wins and one loss. The intramural basketball league was blessed with a combination of the finest and most closely matched teams in many years.
