WDESTLING 3 The wrestling team, coached by Mr. Forrest, who supplanted Blr. Mac- Donald as wrestling coach because of the latter's inability to give the time to the team because of outside affairs, had another highly successful season. Under the leadership of Co-captains Ed Cameron and Dick Hourahan and ltlanager Jimmie de Pourtales, the team won five matches, lost one, and tied one. Weymouth and Needham were among the teams defeated, while Quincy won one match and lost another to North. Highlights of the season were North's defeat of Weymouth and the tie with Phillipps Andover, a team which is on a par with many college wrestling teams. By winning the Old Colony lYrestling League Championship for the third time, the boys earned for the school permanent possession of the coveted Old Colony Wlrestling Trophy. North also won the State Wrestling Championship, Class A, for the fourth successive time. Ed Cameron, Bill Cameron, John Carleton, and Art Connors won individual championships, while Dick Hourahan, Dave Brown, and Ken Anderson placed second. Phil Navin was a sure bet to win a championship also, but was forced to content himself with a third, because of an injured arm. In Class B, North lost the State Cham- pionship to VVeymouth by one point, Van Gemert, Richards, and Cavicchi receiving titles, while VValker, Sullivan, Assmus, and Vogel also placed. The outlook for next year is promising, with Bob Bradley, Dave Brown, and Art Connors, along with Junior High wrestlers Bob Leavitt, Ozzie Morin, and Eliot Patten expected to hold varsity positions. Congratulations to Mr. Forrest and the boys! 66

Because of the many popular activities carried on in the school gym during the winter months, the girls could not get together for practice until February. livery Tuesday afternoon over one hundred Senior girls faithfully reported to the gym for active playing. Although Miss Perkins had selected two teams com- posed of the speediest girls, unforeseen circumstances prevented her from staging the annual Alumni and Quincy tussles. Pndoubtedly, had these games taken place, our girls would have brought home added honors to the school. Janet Vheney and Helen C'ollins, who were guards in last year's first team, have again come through in top shape. Mildred Parsons, a fast stepping Junior, has been one of this year's dangerous guards. Small but fast are Violet Le-Blanc and Sarah Diffarlo, forwards. Helen Butts and Barbara Keith, the two alert centers, are the linking chains of the team. Each year this sport is becoming more popular among the girls, and with the supervision of Miss Perkins, the future will undoubtedly hold great prospects for Nortlfs girl basketeers. 65

TIDACIY lhe 1958 llrack Team, with such veterans as Gilday, Durup, lYalker. Goode, Huddenhagen, Hanson, Dc-Vries, and Jago, is in the midst of a very successful season. Voach Don lYest feels that this year's team should continue along the primrose path of victory in the same manner as last year's undefeated aggregation. The Red and Black tracksters ran their first three opponents, Needham, Weymouth, and Attleboro, into the cinders in impressive fashion, and the boys showed their power by placing high in scoring at the New Hampshire Inter- scholastics. Before the season was half over several new records had been placed on the books by the North flyers. Dnrup reduced the mile record to 4 min. 37 4- f'l0 sec., and the half mile record to 2 min. 5 sec. Gilday the 4-40 to .31 4- X10 sec., and Fisher raised the high jump record to 5 ft. 82, in. .Iago and l'nderwood have shown speed in the dashesg Nliriek and De- Yries have been consistent in the jumps, Goode, Rnddenhagen, Dunn, and the Terrio Twins are constant threats in their events: llanson and Ruggles have improved in the weights. With a group such as this, ably flanked by Foley. XYalker,llellish, Hardy, Schofield, and Duggan it is hoped that North this year will annex the highest honor possible--the state championship. 67
