East Boston in our first quad meet 121 to 67. The following week we trampled Trade, Commerce, and Dorchester. Ancient rival, Boston English, snapped our winning streak by edging us 107-7526 in a hard fought battle. ln the G.B.I. Meet we captured the -lunior Trophy gathering 22 points. Outstanding juniors in Class A-B were: lfoley, Madigan, and Caughan. Class C members were: Bond, Marley, Cunningham, Melionald and Mike Heffernan. Early in November we were greeted by Mr. Leonard Mahoney, SJ., Over 75 can- didates reported to the East Brookline St. Oval. Our first victims were: Brighton. East Boston, Hyde Park and Brandeis. There were no running events in this meet due to a leak in the armory roof. In the second meet we were cut down by Tech. The scoring was: Boston Tech 153 B. C. High 8512, Trade 31M and Commerce 27. In our third meet we were trampled by vastly superior English and Tech. We took only 4511 points. Memorial was fourth with 43 points. Our final armory meet was February Iarst 18th. We gathered 141573 points defeating Roxbury, Memorial, Commerce and Dor- chester. In the Third Annual Greater Boston Intcrscholastics, one point separated East Boston and B. C. High. However, B. C. High was unable to garner one point trailing lfastie 37 to 36. East Boston took ll points in the -Iunior Class which indeed was a tremendous help. The Relay Squad established a new meet record pounding around the Carden Oval eight laps in 2.3 1.7. Congratulations to the Intermediate Division winners, B. C. High's Class D team. B. C. High has defeated among others, New- ton, Commerce, Malden, Lynn English, and Lynn Classical. We are now looking forward to a success- ful out-door season. However, we will more than likely lose some of our members to the Baseball and newly-formed Golf and Tennis Squads. The B. C. High Track Squad, one of the largest in the school's history, also has an abundant senior group.

ACROSS THE BOARDS ln the year 1944 we were freshmen and track was under the direction of Mr. Casey, This year we were welcomed into Bos- ton Track competition at the East Newton St. Armory. ln the first three quad meets B. C. High finished second. In the final quad meet we romped to victory. Later on this year at Boston College, we defeated Mission but were defeated by Roxbury Latin. As Sophomores we rejoined Mr. Casey, S.-I., in November. Our first meet of the season was against a tough Malden team. We were just edged out. Facing Weymouth we were again knieked', in a tight battle. At an d the Armory we won two quad meets also finished second and third. The Re- lay Team ran second to LaSalle in the B. A. A. Meet however turned in better time L 116 than the winner of the afternoon's State Meet. Bob Gaughan was a member of the Relay Squad. B. C. High captured the Greater Boston Interscholasties and the Frederick O'Brien Trophy. Among others we defeated Boston Latin, Boston English, and Lynn English. In the warm spring air we faced St. Johnls Prep finishing just behind our host. W'e were again edged in a meet at Newton. The Relay Team again made a superb show- ing in the Belmont Class A Relay Car- nival winning the half-mile jaunt. In our Junior Year Mr. Richard Burke, SJ., took over the coaching duties after Mr. Casey, SJ., left for Weston College. Under the guidance of Mr. Burke, SJ., we had an excellent indoor season.

Now, as a senior, he has been showing his heels to numerous competitors. I will do my level best to give you a complete verbal picture of each senior track- man. Tall, thin William Bond, exponent of the quarter-mile, has added many points to quad meet totals. Another 440 Speedster is diminutive Dick Madigan. Dick has been on the Track Team for three years, a letter winner in his Sophomore Year. B. C. Highis high-hurdles' duo of John Cunningham and footballer Mike Heffer- nan have placed consistently iniboth Quad and Garden Meets. Mike is also a fine high- jumper and shot-putter. George Foley, one of B. C. High's great- est athletes, is a proficient shot-putter. A constant winner, George has gathered a colossal number of points. Eddie Donovan and Harry Jennings are 1000-yd. runners. Eddie is a good football l t . 1 X player. Harry has been on the Track Squad for three years. Tommy Mulvehill and George Burke, both from Newton, are also thousand-yard runners. In Class CH Senior runners are: Bill Cal- lahan and Leo Stankard. Callahan is a crack quarter-miler, Stankard a speedy 220 dash man. Gerald Cleary and Ed McDonald are top- poinr gatherers in the 'broad jump and high janp, respectively. Ed is a five-six jumper and Gerry is a consistent placer. John Di Anni in the 440, James Dow- ney, Lawrence Silverson, and John Sullivan, milers have garnered their share of points. Bob Gaughan, although greatly hampered by injuries, has been one of the mainstays of the Track Squad. Senior Manager, John O'Neil, is to be congratulated because of his fine work in keeping our belongings together. Finally, but far from being last, is B. C. High's State and Northeastern Meet high- jumper, Bob Kelley. Kel is really great. Liao F. STANKARD, JR. isj
