Ezra I. Fenton, O,S,A,, coach. A few weeks after school opened, a meeting was called for all varsity bas- ketball candidates. After many tryouts a team was selected by the coach, Rev. Ezra J. Fenton, O. S. A. On this team there were only three returning letter- men: Thomas O'Brien lcaptainj, Richard Gallagher lco-captainl, and Silvio Fittipaldi. However, many members of last year's Junior Varsity moved up to play on this year's Varsity. They are Lawrence Seaver, John Semon, James McGarry, John Foote, Robert Harvey, and James Finnegan. Two able new- comers are Edward Martin and David Smith. The manager of the squad this year is Kilro Ferretti. The backbone of the team is comprised of Tom O'Brien, Ed Martin, Bob Harvey, and Richard Gallagher. O'Brien and Harvey have supplied the scoring punch of our quintet. The rebounds have been handled very admirably by big Ed Martin and little Richie Gallagher. Lacking sufficient experience, the team has been slow to break into the win- ning column. But the indomitable spirit and enthusiastic cooperation of the members of the team is assurance in itself that the taste of victory will not be denied them.
