CROSS COUNTRY In Cross Country, a sport which separates the men from the boys, Warde's men had rough going going this season against very strong competition. Although lacking in equipment and runners, the team was excellently coached by Mr. Frederick Klee. The team was well represented by Don Smilovitz, who placed first in several meets. Don also came in thirteenth place in the County Meet, which had about one-hundred and seenty-five entries competing. The other lettermen who composed Warde's first Cross Country team are Steve Tower, Lenny Sohlberg, Glen Shaffer, Joe Pechulis, and Seth Weintraub. Although defeated by a close score of 28-29, Warde's harriers made their best performance against Harding, one of the better teams in the county. Scores of the other contests consisted of one forfeit by Stratford and five losses. With an established team, better equipment, and a larger turnout, along with returning veterans next year's Warde's Cross Country team promises to become a winning one. Row I: R. Byiteck, D.

Carlson, M. Hayes, Coach Sierup Coach Tetreau. The first football team to represent Andrew Warde High School, coached by Mr. Fern Tetreau and captained by Russ Jennings and Bob Kasvinsky, was ably managed by Bob Noga and his assistant managers Lenny Blum and John Vince. A successful season was prevented by the lack of ex- perienced players, Kas was the only returning Ietterman on the squad. Although lacking experience, we faced our opponents with spirit and determination. A veteran-filled Greenwich team handed us a 40 to 7 defeat in our first encounter of the season. Ben Slesin sky had the distinction of scoring Warde's first touchdown The touchdown climaxed a sixty-five yard drive, which fea tured the running of Al Greco and Joe Renaud. As a result of breaking his leg during the kick-off, Dick Galley was sidelined for the remainer of the season A strong Milford squad defeated us by a count of 39 to O. Though never striking paydirt, our passing attack netted one-hundred and twelve yards on seven completions. In the Darien game, our offense was sparked by the Fading back for a pass . . . F001 gl
