The 1929 TRAIL wee- ee e -1 - - Q bog Baltimore City College, which the visitors took over 3 to 1. The clever footwork and fine coordination of the Collegians proved too much for the rather slumped Blue and White. The next Tuesday Severn was beaten 1 to 0 in a fast game. On the very next day another game was played, this time with the Aberdeen booters, and the outcome was 1 to 0, again in favor of the Tomesters. The traditional Gilman foes were next met twice within two weeks, in the most important games of the year. In the first of these, a fast, well-played game, featured by exceptional performances on both sides, Tome's soccer warriors well earned their 2-1 victory. The second Gilman game, the only one of the season played away from the home pitch, was contested in a drizzling downpour and dense fog. Gilman's two pointers, made by Purnell in the first quarter shortly after the game had started, proved to be the only goals made. Gene Hire was the mainspring in Tome's playing. Booters from the Rockville Athletic Club dealt the Tome men a 1-0 defeat in the final game of the season. ' Those men who so well deserved their minor T's were Captain Law, Captain-elect Pease, Earl, Hasson, Koppe, Bailey, McCord, Sansbury, Meyer, Hire, Barr, Rodgers, Warburton, Harrell, Clagett, and Manager Sherburne. Since the reserve material on hand has been admirably developed it is hoped and thought that next year will see an equally successful season. Captain Ted One Hundred and Twenly-one

Handicapped by the loss of several valuable mem- bers of last year's team, and held to the disadvantage of working with many new recruits, Coach Ryan turned out a delegation worthy to represent Tome. Through the winning of the South Atlantics at Baltimore, Tome's aggregation proved itself still the predomi- nating power in that sport in this section of the country, winning the annual contest for the sixth consecutive time. Not long after the Thanksgiving vacation the first practice was called, the result being that more than fifty candidates, of which approximately one-sixth were letter men of last year's team, reported for training. After several weeks of intensive work- outs the varsity squad was cut to less than half that number. Captain Bastian, Wise, I-Ianway, Murphy, Hawtin, Craven, Cummings, and Spallholz composed the structure about which the team was built while Palmros, Boyce and Beaudry added new strength to it. As Christmas vacation interrupted the preliminary training period, the first meet was not staged until january sixteenth. Upon that date the team succumbed to Central High School at Washington, losing by the score of 39-29. Only three first places were secured by the Tome swimmers, Bastian and Spallholz doing best. In general the times for the different events were not up to the usual standard. Unfortunately, the competition at the Penn Interscholastics, to which the natators next journeyed, proved too stiff for Tome's representation. Nor did Mercersburg, a bitter rival of Tome in this phase of sports, fare any better there. The few points to Tome's credit were secured by Bastian, who finished fourth in the 220-yard event, and the 200-yard relay team, which managed to tie for third place in its race. West Catholic High won the important contest. However, fate smiled thereafter on Coach Ryan's men, for the remainder of the One Hundred and Twenty-three
