As another years teams have come and gone, turn back with us into their closed record books. Look, not with an eye for mistakes made, but rather with fair tolerance. If we observe the facts in this manner, we cannot help but realize that our athletes gave their best at all times. And we are proud. ll'l'HLll'l'lC

SERVICE CLUB FOOTBALL SQUAD The Babylon Panthers ended their 1944 football season with an unenviable string of seven losses and no wins. Nevertheless, the team showed itself to be spirited and entitled to a better showing. We switched to a new formation this year, the The speedy backfield needed for a successful T was composed of Don Hot Buns Cross, fullback, Bill Hofmann, right halfback, and Marty Albert, left halfback. Both Don and Bill plunged over for hard earned touchdowns. King Westerlintl and Arty Schucht, a newcomer who also played on the line, did some fine work in these positions. George Klein was one of the quarterbacks, who called plays, and he chalked up three touchdowns for the eleven this season. Wzilly Brown did a creditable job as quarterback. Ed Prohaska and Charlie Moore came back again this season as ends. Charlie did some nne offensive playing and with Ray Annino, represented Babylon in the All-Suffolk squad. Until he was injured in a Lindenhurst game and unable to play thereafter, Captain Ray Annino was a valuable guard. He was co-winner of the 1943 plaque. Alan MacQuarrie, a junior, took Rays position after that and filled it ably. The other guard position was filled by Cal Taylor and then by Carroll Fischetti, another newcomer. Tackles Don Rosencrans, winner of this years plaque, and Phil Piccione, veteran, held the line Hrmly, and Phil was successful in kicking the conversions. 38
