Picture Not Available CLASS HISTORY The History of the Class of '58 is compiled of four letters, one for each year of high school. North Kingstown High School June, 1955 Dear Sue, Well, a lot has happened since I last wrote. We entered our Freshman year full of zip. We weren't merely eighth graders anymore. We were “The Freshmen, and boy were we! Getting the old ball rolling, we had election of class officers. They were as follows: President, Ralph Bowen; Vice-President, Ken Anderson; Secretary, Kay Busby; and Treas- urer, Lynn Comer. Don't you think that this was a good selection? Then our class decided on twenty-five cents a month for class dues which, incidentally, hardly anyone paid. Heck, everybody's not a mil- lionaire. This money that we are saving is to go toward our Senior year when we will go on our trip to Washington. Isn't that the most? Oh yes, we chose navy blue and white for our class colors and the red carnation for our class flower. On April 15 we held a dance which was named the Spring Hop. Gee, kid, you should have been there! What a ball! Our next big project was a food sale which we held at Earnshaw's. Anyone who didn't bring food had to forfeit $.50 so most of us managed to throw together something that looked like a cake or a pie. We decided to go to Lake Mishnock for our class picnic on the fifteenth of June. The original date was postponed because a battalion of 250 Seabees was having its picnic there the same day. So we missed the Seabees and went another day, but we still had fun. And to top the day off Kay had to pull one of her tricks and fall into the water with all her clothes on (or did someone push her?) Our biggest thrill of the year was being allowed to participate in the Class Day exercises, which we all enjoyed. Well, Toots, guess I'll ink out my John Hancock and say good-bye. Marion North Kingstown High School June, 1956 Dear Sue, In September we came into school as Sophomores. Big deal! When we looked at the lowly Freshmen, we could hardly believe that we were ever so unimportant. Well, anyway, we decided to get right down to business with the annual election of class officers. Remember that handsome he-man. Bill Mudge, that you had a passionate crush on when we were in diapers? Isn't he the one who cut off your pigtails? Anyway, he was elected President. And that real tweedy Britisher, Brian Metcalf, was elected Vice-President. How about that? Remember Sonia Smith, the pretty girl who came from Providence in the eighth grade? She was elected Secretary. And Penny Aldrich, who always had a mind for figures, was elected to take care of the money bags. We decided on $.50 a month for class dues. This really broke us. We sold beanies, pennants, and sweatshirts to help the Washington cause along. They didn't sell as well as we thought; (do you know any- one who would like a sweatshirt cheap?) We held a food sale in November, that wasn't very successful, because we didn't start selling food until late in the day. At Christmas time we had a party with a talent show in the auditorium for the whole class. The talent scouts were Dolores Salisbury, Lina Ken- nett, Virginia Deming, Brian Metcalf, and Mike Freedman. As a matter of fact they were most of the talent, too. In February we decided that as Sophomores we would again sponsor a Spring Hop. The dance was a $56.00 success, which, in our eyes, was pretty good. As the end of the year came around, we again decided to go to Lake Mishnock for our annual class picnic. This year at Mishnock we had paddle fights in the middle of the lake, and everybody was soaked. So the year ended. We were tired but happy. Well, that's all the news for now. So as they say in Spain, Hasta Luego, Cocodrilo. (Translation, see ya Later Alligator.) Marion North Kingstown High School June, 1957 Dear Sue, We started our Junior year off with a bang by our annual election of officers. Bill Mudge was elected President; Sonia Smith, Vice-Presi- dent; Penny Aldrich, Treasurer; and Yours truly. Secretary. We raised our class dues to $1.00 a month. Honestly, this high cost of living! On October 11, we held a Harvest Dance, where fun was had by all. When December rolled around, we had another Christmas party in the auditorium. We could hardly recognize it. We Juniors had the best party in the whole school. We had entertainment, good food, dancing, more food, and just about everything to make a party com- plete. In February we received our class rings. They are the most beautiful rings you have ever seen. When we first got our rings, we flashed them all over the school although some of us didn't keep them too long. Next we started working on our class play, which was quite a proj- ect. The name of it was Come Out of Your Coma. It was the funniest comedy you have ever seen. A real scream! Our class hams really did a swell job with it. To withhold the tradition of recognizing the Seniors before their de- parture from Old N. K. , we invited them on our annual outing at Lincoln Park. I guess that just about wraps up our Junior year at N. K. We worked hard and had a lot of fun. Will say good-bye for now. Yours truly, Marion North Kingstown High School November, 1957 Dear Sue, Well, here I am again with a little news. Just think, here we are. Seniors! Doesn't it seem kind of odd not having a class to look up to? It's awfully hard to believe that this is our last year at N. K. The time has gone by so fast that it has traveled almost as fast as Sputnik. Well, for class officers this year we have: Ralph Bowen, President; Bill Mudge, Vice-President; Penny Aldrich, Treasurer; and Yours truly, Secretary. One of our biggest projects this year is our Yearbook. Ralph Bowen and JoAnne Perry are the co-editors of the yearbook, and they are doing just a terrific job. This year our parents are taking the responsibility of taking us kids to Washington. Gee, if they only knew what they were getting them- selves into! They are helping us to raise money in every way they can. Last summer our parents sponsored a softball game between the N. K. Police and the S. K. Police. That really helped us out quite a bit. Some of the things that we plan to do to raise money for our trip to Washing- ton are food sales, dances, class play, and anything else that will help us raise money. We are already selling Christmas cards and plan to sell Christmas trees real soon. We have started work on our class play. The name of it is Curtain Going Up. It's going to be real super! Graduation will be drawing near sooner than we think, and we will be taking N. K. covers off our books for the last time. When graduation does arrive, many of us will wish that we were just starting out again as Freshmen. Well, here it is only November, and it is a little too early to make predictions about the future. We hope to have a very successful year with loads of fun. Sincerely, Marion LaBelle Class Historian Class Colors Blue and White Class Song Our Cingering Memories by JO ANN BROWNING (Tune— Halls of Ivy ) As we leave these halls behind us, With our eyes up to the sky The spirit of North Kingstown will never, never die. We look towards a great tomorrow Knowing not what lies ahead; But we will face it strongly Thanks, our dear school, to thee. We ne'er shall forget the classes where we met, And the memories in our hearts we'll always know— The smiles of the years, the memories and the tears Will linger with us even though we've gone. From the halls of Alma Mater to wherever we may go We'll ne'er forget the things we did so long, long ago. Class Motto Today we follow; tomorrow we lead. Class Poem Weil Remember yesterday by ROSE COII I NS The fun we had in classes Behind the teachers backs When cough drops were excuses For simple little snacks. Self-conscious football heroes. The cause of all our tears. Our class of '58 We'll remember through the years. Lectures so convincing To which we lent an ear Are memories we'll cherish As they prove their worth each year. While future classes take our place When we grow old and gray. Dear old Alma Mater We'll remember yesterday. Class Slow Red Carnation CLASS PROPHECY As Judy and I sat watching the waves, we realized that graduation would soon sever the ties of school life and that our classmates would drift apart. What would be their fate—and ours? Looking down, we saw a Sand Crab; he winked merrily, waved a waggish claw, and said in his tiny voice, Would you like to know the fate of your classmates? Scarcely believing our senses, we urged him to proceed. As he began his tale, he stopped and said, Wait! I'll take you on a mystical journey to the future. Follow me, and he plunged into the sea. Although we were skeptical, we did not hesitate for we knew that the future of our classmates would be revealed. Soon we landed on the ocean floor, and came upon the opening to a tunnel; he urged us to enter. As we did, a suction pulled us into a spacious cave which, although completely surrounded by water, con- tained air. In the center of the cave was a bustling metropolis. Here is Wickford, said the Crab and then he disappeared leaving the future for us to discover. After entering the metropolis, we saw two women pushing baby carriages; when they turned around, we recognized them as Penny Aldrich and Lynn Comer. When we had all recovered from the surprise of seeing each other, Penny and Lynn explained that they were shop- ping for their children's school clothes. Penny for her quintuplets and Lynn for Dave Jr. Lynn told us her husband, Dave, was owner of Reynhout's Lingerie Factory with Bruce Caldwell and Norm Dickerson as official testers for durability. We asked Penny about our classmates and she quickly told us we could see them if we went to the reunion of the Class of 58 This was to be held the following night at Moshier's Magnificent Mansion, a swanky hotel that had recently been remodeled and renovated by the architectural firm of Rudgers, Inc. In the meantime they said we might be able to see some of them at the annual Village Fair to be held that night. We said that we wouldn't miss either one. Just then we noticed a sign which read Jerry Harrington's Dance Studio. Being anxious to see Jerry, we decided to go in and visit. In the studio we found Jerry instructing Kenny Anderson and Dolores Salis- bury in a new ballet routine, tights and all. As they were busy, we decided to look over the studio. We heard Hawaiian music in another room; Judy peeked in first and started laughing. Being very curious, I peeked in, too, and found that I couldn't keep a straight face, either. There was Chris Cooper scolding Tom Swivel Hips Jones for starting the Hawaiian War Chant on the wrong hip. As we stepped out the door we heard Cha-cha music from a room down the hall. Jerry appeared and explained that the room was Studio J, a place for private instruction. Here Barbara Crowell was instructing Paul Crabtree. Starting to get hungry, we asked Jerry if he knew of a good place to eat. He suggested Dewey's Chewy Diner which was just around the corner. As this sounded good to us, we said good-by and headed for the diner. On our way we saw a sign which read The Detective Agency of An- drews, Bradley and Wrightington. As the names were familiar to us, we decided to go in and say hello. It was good to see Betsy Staniunas at the desk. We asked if this agency was run by Georgia, Polly and Nancy. She told us that it was and that they were out working on the Case of the Missing Tooth. She explained that Brian Metcalf was being sued for breach of contract for not being able to fulfill his Ipana commercial with Bucky Beaver. It seems that Brian had lost a tooth in a fight with Richard The Rock Pegnam. We said good-by to Betsy and made our way to the diner. There we had a long chat with Dewey while eating a Charlie King Delight prepared by one of Dewey's top chefs. After leaving Dewey with all his pretty waitresses, one of whom was Mary Lou Jackman, we decided to hail a taxi and go to our hotel. A Volkswagon pulled up. On the door we read Schiebenpflug's Super Safe, but Speedy Singing Cab Service. As we opened the door, smoke came pouring out. Above the roar of the 20 cylinder engine we heard the driver singing Smoke Gets In Your Eyes. When the driver turned around, it was none other than Kay Busby, her specks fogged with smoke. She was so surprised to see us that she almost lost her Stogey. We asked her to take us to Moshier's Mansion. She had us there in two seconds flat. As we started toward the hotel, we saw a crowd gathering near the door. There in the center was Kempton and Ralph Razee playing a trumpet-trombone duet with Amos Strickland passing the hat for the Salvation Army. Pushing our way through the crowd, we managed to get through the door and into the lobby. At the desk we finally got the attention of Jenny Gooden who was busy reading the telegrams and post cards of the guests. Jenny rang for the speediest bell-boy they had, Ralph Hopkins, to take us to our room. As we were passing the honeymoon suite, Jimmy McGovern came running out the door with a shoe directly behind him. Marilyn Boyer followed with the other shoe in her hand, ready to throw it. Must be their first argument, Ralph said laughing. Upon arriving at our room, we asked Ralph to make an appointment at- the hotel's beauty salon for us. We arrived at the Fair just in time to see the Stopettes, a sensational group of can-can dancers. It starred Joan Gypsy Rose Lee Smith and featured Myrtle The Legs Booth, Gail The Hips Testerman, Darilyn The Knees Moore, and last but not least, Donna The Remains Eldridge. Accompanying the Stopette's was Wickford's famous Town Band. In the band we saw Charlie Mowrey playing the tuba, Norma Beckman playing the bass drum, and Dick Nagle playing the piccolo. In the middle of the dance, we heard a yell. Allan Bucklin had stabbed Frances Willis with his trombone slide as Frances was reaching C. An ambulance was immediately called to the scene by Rose Mary Pratt whom we later found to be North Kingstown's new high school principal. Two minutes later the ambulance arrived with Ann Devine as driver and Carolyn Wirz as her co-pilot (knowing Nancy, she would be flying). They soon had Frances on the stretcher and were ready to take her to McIntyre, Mulvey, and Morra's Institute of Minor Cuts and Bruises when a flat was discovered. This was due to a faulty tire which was manufactured by Marion LaBelle's Super Tread Factory. Marlene Edwards, chief mechanic at Romano's was called to repair the tire. She quickly changed it and the ambulance went on its way. As Judy and I were very concerned about Frances, we decided to take a bus to the hospital. We took one from Jimmy Gray's Hound Bus Service, the most efficient in the city. The road we traveled was under construction. Tak- ing a closer look we saw that Phyllis Northup had taken over her father's job as road commissioner. She was driving a three-stage bull dozer. Phyllis was driving so fast that the third stage flew off into Jane Ogren's super-sonic sand truck. What a mess! Before long we arrived at the hospital and immediately went to the reception desk to inquire about Frances. We were referred to the head nurse who was coming down the hall. We recognized it to be Mike Freedman all dressed in his starched uniform. We all laughed when we remembered his part in the junior play. Mike told us that Frances was coming along fine and would be out in time for the class reunion. He also said that there was someone on the maternity floor that he would like us to see. As we entered the room we saw Mary Davey in her fashionable baby-doll Johnnie. At the bedside was her nervous hus- band, Harold Maynard. Poor Harold didn't recognize us, but he gave us each a cigar while boasting about his new 20 pound premature girl. Judy and I left the happy couple, said good bye to Mike, and left for our hotel. We arrived just in time for our appointment at the beauty salon. We were pleased when we found that Pete Koch, the famous hair stylist, was going to do our hair. Pete, not knowing which style would suit us best, consulted his assistant, Patti Webber. She thought the famous Chicken Cut would be best for us. At the end of our appointment we thanked them and returned to our room. We turned on the TV to watch This Is Your Life. Gerry Ralph Edwards, master of ceremonies, had just surprised Beverly Breard, the first person to master the art of toe twirling. We were so interested that when the commercial came on, we were thoroughly disgusted until we saw Billy Upper Mudge doing his commercial for Revlon. He proved his skill by testing a new kiss proof lipstick worn by the model, Carolyn Matheson. At breakfast the next morning we bought the morning paper. The headline read, AT PHIL'S DRIVER TRAINING STUDIO GERRY LAVAL- LETTE BREAKS SOUND BARRIER IN '54 CHEVROLET. Under the headline we read that Jo Ann Browning, in competing against Dave McCombs, won her 100th blue ribbon with her famous Frog Kick at Tony's Water Carnival. At the same event Tiger Brown proved his strength by rolling Cold Spring Rock at low tide. Turning over the second page we saw the gossip column: (NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH), written by JoAnne Louella Parsons Perry. ELLEN SHUTTLEWORTH ELOPES WITH RALPH BOWEN! LORRAINE ROY, CHIEF PROFESSOR AT CHING CHOY'S CHINESE ACADEMY, AWARDS CAROLYN ARD AND JOANIE SCALISE HON- ORARY DEGREES FOR SKILLFUL USE OF CHOPSTICKS. We glanced down at the movie section— PLAYING AT THE STRAND Billy Ferguson starring as Tarzan in Monkeys in the Treetops with Judy Gardiner as his tree top love. Held over! The day went by quickly, and before long, it was time to dress for our class reunion. When we arrived, Jean Wellman, hostess of the even- ing presented us each with a corsage. She escorted us to our places at the banquet table next to Claire Loignon. We were glad to see that she was doing well. She had taken over her father's dairy business, catering especially to Milkaholics Unanimous. At the head of the cottage cheese division was Ben Dyer, who was forever trying to please his dis- contented cows. Claire told us of an amusing incident which happened at the farm. Liz MacLennan was busy one day milking a cow when the cow sud- denly kicked the stool from under Liz. Liz fell off, and in so doing, knocked over the milk bucket. Her husband, Phil du Hamel, came on the run and found poor Liz sitting in a big puddle of milk. How he laughed! After our banquet, the orchestra played a few dance numbers. Then Bob Allocco, master of ceremonies, announced that entertainment would be provided by some members of the class. Mary Whitford began by playing Twelfth Street Rag on her harp. She was followed by the Flatones Quartet with Ruth La Fountaine, Virginia Deming, Joanne La Freniere, and Ruth Kettelle. Last but not least was Rose Collins, Ven- triloquist. The dummy on her knee was Ed Wilson who played When the Saints Come Marching In on his trombone. After the entertainment Bob Allocco made a toast to the future suc- cess of our class. Here the Sand Crab appeared. That's all, he said. But what about us? we cried. Time will tell, he said mischievously. When we started to question him further, we found he had vanished, leaving only the dainty trace of his claws in the sand to prove it had not all been a dream. Now that we have turned to realism, we find that we are on the edge of our goal—graduation. A few steps more and we shall plunge into the Sea of Life and taste its bitterness and sweetness. Behind us is a straight path, a record on the sands which time, tide, and travelers may dim, but never obliterate.

The Show must go on , and on this club the Skippers have got their eyes we're sure. Driver Zraimng Under the careful supervision of Mr. Haggarty these students learn the rules of the road. They practice in their 58 Chevy what they have learned in the classroom. The theme of their class is DRIVE SAFELY which they try to do. Tire Department An organization that has been with us for a good many years is the Fire Department. This department is made up of senior high boys and they are advised by Mr. Lewis. The boys are awarded certificates when they learn all about the equipment and pass their test. We're all proud of the help they have given and will give in the future to the community in time of need. OFFICERS Chief___________ Lieutenants ____ Bob Scheibenpflug ________Pete Ward Bill Ferguson Charlie Carpenter Calvin Tyrrel Jrmck Club Along with the flood of new clubs to N. K., came the French Club. We are sure it's not going to be a past tense project, but it will remain and grow in the future. Under the direction of Mr. Palmer, this club is de- veloping into a worthwhile organization. BON SANTE Juture Jarmors of America North Kingstown, being a rural school, maintains ag- riculture as one of its chief interests. The FFA was organ- ized with this in mind. Training in agricultural leader- ship, citizenship, and co-operation is their main objective. Under the direction of Mr. Lewis, we are certain that this organization will continue to prosper and enrich the lives of each member.

Under the direction of Miss Tew, this group serves as hosts and hostesses at school activities and receptionists and guides in the office. Among their projects for the year is the collection of food for the Lions Club Christmas baskets in an effort to aid the needy. The school certainly holds this club in high esteem. fjuuior High Juture Homemakers of America These girls are getting an early start in the career of homemaking. Betty Crocker will certainly have nothing on them when they take their place at the range. Miss Eastwood sees many burnt offerings we're sure, but by the end of the course everyone is time and tem- perature conscious, and the results are very tempting.

Up and running again this year is our school paper. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Herchen, this club is certainly mak- ing up for lost time. The papers have been published as regularly as clock work this year. Each student is anticipating what will be next. Keep up the good work, we all appreciate your ef- fort. North Kingstown ‘ ‘Skippers’ ’ Sand It's for sure we'll March to the River Kwai if the sound of N. K.'s band is in the lead. With those snappy twirlers the whole scene comes alive as the band marches between half times. Under the direction of Mr. Hill, the band always seems to have that winning quality and this year is no exception. N. K. certainly recognizes and appreciates all the time and effort put in at rehearsals to make concerts and as- semblies more pleasing. Projection Club This group of students has as its purpose the showing of films on various topics in an effort to aid student and teacher alike. The club is kept on the go throughout the year scheduling and showing films. We sure do appreciate the effort these students have put forth toward the betterment of N. K. At the beginning of each school year, new members are trained for this club which is under the direction of Mr. Hellewell. Radio Club Under Mr. Desforges' able instruction these boys make their own radio sets. They not only have instruction pe- riods, but they have practical experience. Some are good hams already, and the others are striv- ing to better themselves to that goal. President Vice-President ____ Bill Deegan Gordan Salisbury Senior High Suture Homemakers of America Still ever present is the housewife, and we think this club, under the direction of Miss Grace Eastwood, is turn- ing the members out each year better and more prepared to fulfill the needs of the home. They are a credit to our school, and we feel that they will continue to prosper in the future. President Vice-President Secretary______ Treasurer _____ ....Rose Collins Winnie Douglas ------Pat Senior Jean Ingram Special Chorus What would an assembly be like without the chorus. This organization is new to N. K. by the fact that each voice is chosen on its ability and the student's desire to sing. Along with this newly acquired organization, N. K. was fortunate in securing a new music teacher, Mr. Higby, who directs this group. The group rehearses three times a week, preparing for their choral concerts. Accompanists Elaine Townsend Ralph Razee Student government Here for its second year, under the capable direction of Mr. Sprague, is the Student Government. This group of students is well on its way with the plan of a miniature government composed of and run by the students themselves. We are sure this group will imbue in each student a sense of responsibility for school, town, and nation. Here is a group of girls who certainly win the approval of the N. K. teachers with their fine lunches. Keep up the good work, kids. A good lunch makes for a happy teacher. Zcacker’s Clinch Club MR.

Billy Mudge Leads Skippers to Victory The Skippers opened the season with a win over its neighbor. East Green- wich, 12-7. Co-capt. Bill Mudge was the chief factor as he scored both touch- downs with help from brother Dave and Walt Hazard. As for the defen- sive angle, the Aveng- ers were held to a min- imum of yardage by Co-capt. Ken Anderson and Jerry Harrington. After winning its opener, N. K. traveled to Colt very confident even though they had beaten us the year be- fore. Colt broke into the scoring column first, but N.K. came right back a few minutes later. N. K. came close to scoring in the fourth quarter, but a fumble stopped our efforts. Even though the game erlded in a 6-6 tie, everyone agreed it was a great game. BRONCOS SCUTTLE SKIPPERS With N. K. starting out with one of its best seasons, they were hoping to get by BurriviHe, the largest team in the conference. It was a sad day, however, for the Skippers as they were turned back 27-6. Most of the Bronco's scor- ing came in the first half as our de- fense stiffened in the second. Frank Glawson scored the only TD on a pass from quarterback Bill Mudge in the fourth quarter. WARREN PINS 13-0 SETBACK ON SKIPPERS MURG'S MEN DUMP SKIPPERS Mwm NORTH KINGSTOWN DEFEATS VOKE BY 14-0 SCORE North Kingstown, scoring touch- downs in the first and second quarters, notched its third victory in Class C, 14-0, over Pawtucket Vocational. Frank Glawson scored the first TD capping a 73 yard drive by going over on a sneak. He also rushed the point. Scoring in the first and third periods, Warren won a 13-0 tri- umph over North Kingstown at Wickford. North Kingstown threatened but it couldn't cross the 'Skins goal line. North reached the War- ren nine-yard line in the second period and the four-yard line in the third, but the Redskins' de- fense tightened and halted the Skippers' drives. .-a, After losing its co-captains, Bill AAudge and Ken Anderson, N. K. journeyed to Barrington to play against its former Coach and the N. K. class of '58 advisor. Even though our valiant Skippers were playing under a handicap, they held the Eagles for the first quar- ter. But after this the Eagles be- gan to find the weak places in our line. The Skippers were led by David Mudge and Walt Hazard who did more than their share in holding back the Eagles. When the game ended the Eagles were ahead 18-0. Not disheartened the Skippers readied for the Paw't Voke Game. SKIPPERS SWAMP OVER SPARTANS At this game Bill Mudge had a field day as he scored 35 points. It is in- teresting to note that this is the highest score ever made by the Skippers as they won 53-6. It seemed that every time our Skippers got the ball they scored a TD. In this game our second team really got a chance to show their stuff. This was the Spartans first football team, and we wish them the best of luck in the future. North scored again midway through the second stanza. They recovered a Voke fumble on the Voke 18 and cov- ered the remaining distance in 6 plays with Walt Hazard going over from the five on a reverse. Voke came close to scoring twice,- but luckily for the Skippers, time ran out on them. T _ 5; REBELS SLIP BY SKIPPERS South Kingstown defeated North Kingstown W 13-0 in the annual meeting at Meade Field. The favored Rebels pushed across a second- period touchdown but were then held scoreless by a tight North defense until the final period, in which a scintillating 60 yard jaunt by Joe Harris set up their second score. North, which lost the services of quarterback Billy Mudge when the latter was injured in the second period, offered its biggest threat in the initial period, in which it drove 50 yards to South's 10-yard line. A holding penalty put back the threat, however. ‘ V ------- 5 . Lr V SECOND TEAM Here are the boy who it on the bench faithfully in ca e they are needed. Occasionally our boys get into the game, and they make a good accounting of themselves. FRESHMEN Here we have part of a future N K. team. If the boys keep growing under Mr. Malkonean, it looks as if N. K. has a good football future. Good luck! football Antics D. Reynhout; J. Reynhout; B. Mudge; B. Metcalf; K. Anderson.

SENIORS '58 RALPH DAVE ■ ••hi The Skippers opened their season with a 61-54 loss. Our Skippers opened thier attack with a foul shot by Jick Metcalf. At the first time out the Skippers were leading 10-5. This lead, however, was shortlived. At the end of the first period the score was Warren, 14— N. K. 11. After fast action in the second period we were still down 23-28. The fourth period also proved to be exciting, as time after time the Skippers came close to tak- ing the lead. Metcalf was high scorer of the game with 22 points. On the return game at home, the Skippers were once again outmaneuvered 48-41. COLT After taking its first de- feat by a close game, the Skippers were breathing for revenge. Colt moved off to a 14-6 lead in the first period, bul this lead was short lived. During the second half things began to close in on them as they were only al- lowed 1 5 points during this time. Our own Jick Metcalf was high scored with 17 points. The final score was 38-29. The second game Colt turned the table and defeat- ed the Skippers 84-64. BARRINGTON After a hard fought first quarter the Skippers were on the short end of a 20-9 score. This, however, didn't discourage them. They were slowly gaining as the half ended with a 30-22 score. At the end of the third quar- ter the boys were still 8 points behind. But Barring- ton opened up in the fourth quarter and defeated us 62 43. In the second game the Eagles came to Wickford confident for another vic- tory, but the Skippers sur- prised them with a 67-66 •victory. COVENTRY Coventry, the runner-up to South, was very, confident for their victories. They, however, had their problems as the Skippers gave them a battle for their money. At Wickford Coventry barely made it as the Skippers matched them basket-for-basket. It finally ended 55-53 with the Skippers still full of fight. The second game, however, was a little more disastrous to the Skippers as we had trouble stopping the Coventry baskets. The game ended 71-50. SOUTH KINGSTOWN South, the power house of the league, was a little too much for North. Al- though our boys never gave up, we couldn't hold South's quintet. The first game ended with a 94-56 score and the second with an 81-39. EAST GREENWICH We split the series with our neighbors from E. G. The first hectic game, includ- ing an overtime, ended wilh a 46-39 score, and the sec- ond with a 45-42 score. SCITUATE After being defeated in the Round Robin, North was determined to beat them both times, which they did. The first game Scituate wasn't able to put their feet on the ground as the Skip- pers made too many bas- kets for them to equal. The score ended 63-47. The second game was a little closer as we needed an overtime to finally clinch the series. We ended the season the right way, a 43- 42 score. 9 5 7 WILLIAM MUDGE —Seniors— MICHAEL FREEDMAN baseball MJ [LI’ t i RTv- ) ' L- 7 itffv - K A Front row. T. Foley, R Jones, R. Osborne.
