The season opened with a victory by the slimmest margin over Marlboro and ended with a decision 14-0 win over highly favored Framingham. Only one black mark marred the record of the Red and Blue and that was a 14-19 reverse suffered at the hands of Norwood. Milford and Natick tied earlier in the year and that tie also served to end the Midland League season in a deadlock between the two teams. Outstanding stars of the team from the class of '44 were Captain Artie Fair. Ed Clasby, the than-whomern of passers, Ken Channell who left us early to play for Uncle Sam, Skippy Howard, Bullet Byrne, Frank Wigglesworth, Barney Barnacle. junie McGrath. johnny Rego, Walter White, Dave Sanborn, Paul Shakespeare, Mike Solari, Dugout Parker, Bob Mahoney, Gerry Deveraux, Roger Casavant, Leonard Chiacchia, and Ray Slamin, Manager. To all these boys who performed so nobly for Natick High, the class of '44 and the coaches extend their heartfelt appreciation and wish them luck in the future undertakings. v

'l'ht- followers of this 1943-44 tive had much occasion to be proud of them 1,94-gitiw of the sustained spirit, the unwavering perseverance and on the whole, the good teamwork. .X glance at the record will prove that this club left much to be desired in the way of a winning combination. However, if we were looking for reasons for Iii apparent failures. malty could be found, chief of which would be the loSS of itf captain joe Ifranciose who joined the Navy.
