Elecf, Thal. joollaf Barnard opened iTs T947 TooTball season by iourneying Tar ouT To Hacliley, only To lose by The score oT 20-O. They never admiTTed deTeaT unTil The Tinal whisTle had blown, even Though They were TighTing againsT vasTly superior Torces. Many Times The Bears had The goal line wiThin easy reach, buT, Through bad luclc or mischance They were never able To cross iT. Coclcy and conTidenT because oT lasT year's 34-O Thrashing oT Woodmere, The Purple and WhiTe challenged The Long lslanders on Their home grounds The Tollowing week. Barnard led aT The halT by The score oT only 7-6, buT sTill TelT conTidenT of a vicTory. During The Third quarTer, Barnard was on The verge oT scoring anoTher Touchdown, when a Triclc pass was in- TercepTed by Woodmere. The Long Islanders Then proceeded To gain back Their losT yardage, and climaxed Their drive wiTh a long pass ThaT resulied in The game's winning Touchdown. Al- Though Barnard losT The game, They learned someThing ThaT will sTand Them in good sTead, now and in laTer years. ThaT imporTanT lesson is The danger oT overcomfidence. On The following Friday our Team played iTs TirsT home game oT The year, and The boys showed how happy They were To be on Their own home grounds by Trouncing Friends' Academy, 26-O. The resulT oT The game was never in doubT, as Barnard had iusT Too much power Tor Their worn-ouT ppponenTs. Near The end oT The con- Tes,T, Vic Connor senT his enTire squad inTo The game Tor some much-needed experience. 6reaT crediT musT be given To The line, which, ThroughouT The enTire game, ToughT viciously and Threw The opposing baclcfield Tor Tremendous losses.

By lar lhe mosl evenly conlesled game ol lhe season was lhe one againsl Columbia Gram- mar. For lhe lirsl lhree quarlers. neilher leam was able lo score. allhough Barnard was deep in Columbia lerrilory much ol lhe lime. Wilh only live minules lo go. lhe Bears plowed across lhe goal line. Seconds laler,' Parnell drove over lo score lhe exlra poinl, and Barnard ended oul in lronl. 7-O. Againsl our lradilional loe, Fieldslon. lhe Purple and While slruck paydirl early in lhe lirsl quarler. The exlra poinl. however, was nol good. Aller lhe louchdown, lhe resl ol lhe lirsl hall and mosl ol lhe second hall consisled ol an exchange ol punls. Barnard's slrong line conlinually held Fieldslon in lheir own lerrilory. and Barnard lhus emerged lriumphanl. 6-0. This was lhe lilleenlh game played belween lhe lvwo greal rivals. wilh Barnard winning eighl. losing six and lying one. Our ioy lasled only a week, however, as in our nexl. and linal game ol lhe season we were badly bealen by Oakdale Mililary Academy. Early in lhe lirsl quarler lhe Purple and While were slopped dead on lhe one-yard line. Oak- dale drove us back, and was able lo score in lhe laller hall of lhe' lirsl quarler. Throughoul lhe second and lhird periods. bolh leams lhreal- ened, bul neilher-was able lo cross lhal lasl while line. ln lhe lasl quarler, however, Oakdale ripped lhrough lhe line lor l9 poinls. and won lhe game. 26-0. Much credil lor lhe success ol lhe leam musl be given lo lhe vicious lackling and oll-lackle plunges ol Pele Parnell, lhe heady signal calling and brillianl running ol Don Flinn. lhe sensational broken lield running ol scalback- Howie Frankel, lhe bull-dozing blocks and sweeping reverses ol Bill Drake. and lhe line pass-snaring ol caplain- elecl Herbie Thal. The lion's share ol lhe credil. however. should go lo Barnard's seven blocks ol granile whose lask il was lo clear lhe palh lor lhe speedy backs and lo slop opposing leams slone cold dead in lhe markel. Oulslanding in lhe line were: Bill Bruce, whose lerrilic line-backing broughl him All-Prep honors: Arl Israel and Dangerous Doug Trower, lwo hard charging, aggressive lackles, who broke lhrough opposing lines so consislenlly lhal lhey were ollen lhe lwo besl men in lhe opposing back- lield: Wee Wally Berch and Joe Schalfer, whose hard charging blocks and jarring lackles made lhem conslanl lerrors lo opposing backs, and lasl bul nol leasl, Jim While whose speclacular pass receiving. made him as dangerous on ollense as he has always been defensively. Barnard is looking lorward wilh greal anlicipa- lion lo nexl year's loolball season-,- and we are all conlidenl lhal il will be a highly successlul one.
