The following Thursday our cross- country squad defeated Manhattan Prep by a score of 30-25. Johnny Nowak took first place for Bronxville in the near-record time of twelve minutes, thirty-five seconds. Other Broncos placed second and fifth, concluding an impressive victory as this was the first cross-country team in Bronxville's ath- letic history. In assembly a group of the Dutch sea- men appeared on the stage and told us of their experiences at sea and in for- eign lands, and even tried to teach us some of their language. On Saturday we played our first home game against Blessed Sacrament. And what a game! The final score was 59-0, and we fans sat on the stands with mouths agape, watching our boys score nine touchdowns and break all previous scoring records. About this time the Community War Fund drive got under way, headed by Bill Coldwell. Representatives were chos- en from the advisories, and throughout the year hammered at us regularly for the promised cash. The next football game was still an- other triumph for Bronxville. We broke our own record of the previous week and rolled up a score of 67 to Hastings' 0. Ten whole touchdowns! An almost constant wail from our Senior femmes resulted in a dateless dance dreamed up by our hard-working social committee. Senior girls and both Junior and Senior boys were invited, in an attempt to equalize the majority of the girls over boys. All those who at- a. '13, 6' f .

Our first goal period ended on a happy social note, though we shall omit all mention of our scholastic achievements-most of us would rather forget. The first day of the second goal per- iod brought us back to school, beaten into submission by ire-filled parents whose opinions of us had unfortunately been somewhat higher than those as- sessed us by our pedagogues. All of us solemnly resolved that we would take the necessary precautions to avoid a similar circumstance six weeks later. We kept the resolution about five days. Our next assembly program was an interesting one with Mrs. Annalee Ja- coby, wife of the late Melville Jacoby, widely known photographer and corre- spondent, speaking of her experiences in the Far East and of problems origin- ating there. A group of students, stim- ulated by her talk, met in Mr. Tauben- eck's room to form an East-West Club. Bud Budinger of the Sophomore Class was elected president, and Barbara Fri of our class was chosen secretary. The club met every Wednesday noon throughout the year with Mr. Tauben- eck and Mr. Hong to thrash out the problems they had encountered having to do with the relations of the East and West. The night after their first meet- Mr. Taubeneck's forum was devoted to the discussion of home issues. The re- ception we must prepare for a mentally and physically changed group of men coming home from war, inflation, and the practice of tolerance at home were all explained and made clearer to an in- terested audience. Another victory was chalked up for our roarin' Broncs on Saturday when they vanquished Albert Leonard High to the tune of 27-13 Cthese victories got almost monotonous!J That formidable trio, Michalski, Miller, and Trapp, click- ed again to complete our fourth grid victory. A great week in the field of sports was rounded out when the soccer team scored a 3-1 triumph over a Field- ston squad. Hallowe'en saw strange creatures Y V V PICTURES . Ah, MEN!!! .
