I-OU 56 fififill, Warned Gramps, as the yougng, ine?-:perieneed trapper started toward the appleorrhard with a hall-doze i- ramp Duran's sma est hunting traps. I will, Gramps, :lssured Tommy, CvFLll'IlfvS eleven-:ear-old frandson, as he trudged down the patn. Grarnps chuckled at Tomrnj. 's air of importance, After all, Tommy thou,.ght, not manyof the boys in hiselass had a ighanee so so outto their grandfather's farm trapping. Of course, this was hisfirst time, and the traps were-not rnadefor the purpose of rgiiteiiing anythin,.g larger than a rat, but he was trapping, and that was all that mattered. Gramps, a likeable old fellow with a twinl-:lent his faded bl11ee1.es, had beenbanhinq the honsewhen Tornrnl. Came to set his traps. Ile resumed l1is Job, humminaa rather toneless song as his brown, leatheryhandsftrmlj planed the brush against tne bottom rows of white clapboards. Tommy had finished the task in the or' hard and returned to help Grampswith the bankintg. Got 'em all set so ig ln-H? asked Gramps. Sure, boasted Tomrny, and I buried 'ern all wttlideadxjrass lilteyoutold me to. I guess no bear will suspect that there are al.y traps tnere. Bearl chuckled Gramps. Don't bears eat apples? retorted Tommy. Maj.'be, replied Gramps, But bears don't live around here. Maybe I'll eatch a porcupine. said Tommy, whose faith was better than his Judgment. Csramps didn t have tne heart to tell the boy tnere was onlya rarepossibility that there would be anything at all in the trans, not to mention a bear or poreupine. A The next morning, Tomrnywasup bydawn, ready to trend the traps as he hadtold his grandfather. He started off at-ross the frosty field toward the traps, pausing now and then to listen for any noises that Illlglll be Coming from the orchard. About tenminutes later, Tornmywaswell on tieway baelt tothe house to show Grampswhathe had caught, but his game did its OWN 2ldVSl'IlSl11g5. j-X strong, familiar odor brought Gramps from the barn, where he was doing his morning chores, tofind Tgmm hurrying toward him with a half-,grown skunk cradled in his arms. ' H Tommy looked up. Tears had welled up in his eyes from the strong smellof this strange animal, but his faee beamed with pride. I cauight him in the first trap, Llrampsl he ealled exeitedly. Then he added, I thought you mi 'htlet me kee him on the farm . V X , , I 4 , A P with your eat til the smell wears off: then I ll take him home for a pet. ' That afternoon, after Tommy had spent a considerable amount of time in the batht lb, and the skunk had been put out of its misery, Gramps had a long conversation with ills grandson. .fitter their talk, Tornmywell understood the nature of a skunlf, but to this day Gramps than t figure out how the animal was rauight in so small a trap.

The following Saturday the iniury-riddled Bucksport team suffered its first defeat of the season, losing at the hands of Ellsworth T8-0. A determined Bucksport team journeyed to Dexter the next Saturday and battled the defending Little Ten Champions to a T4-I4 tie. The Orono Red Riots who were destined to become the T952 State Champions handed the Bucks their third loss of the season T8-O. The Golden Bucks playing host to a fast improving Belfast Club, edged their down river rivals I3-0. The Bucks came into their own in the Bar Harborgame and trounced the Seasiders by the large margin of 33-6.

Lord led the scoring parade with 204 points. Although the team of 52-53 did not have o very successful seasonia great deal is to be said for the undieing efforts of Coach Sell and the spirit with which the team played throughout the season. The co-managers of this year were Colin Sheehan and Donald Mattson who did outstanding work in this field. 474 f'f4,.4 C,7f,jgfx.Q .Gy-A,9'll' rf -7 ,Am-fx 2-tJKL,N,Z.'J ml The record for this year was as follows: 'Bucks Bucks Bucks Bucks Bucks Bucks Bucks 'Bucks Bucks Bucks 'Bucks 'Bucks Bucks 'Bucks Bucks Bucks Bucks Belfast Pemetic Brewer Ellsworth Mt.

The team this year got a bad start losing the first game to Belfast. As the season went on, the J.V. 's got some players who helped them win more easily. Hutchins started out playing varsity ball, but soon came down to the .l .V .'s to really pour the points through the hoop. Then Patterson, also a good scorer, after spending some time on the varsity, decided he would like to play J.V. again. Between the first team consisting of Perrigo, McDunnah, Patterson, Hutchins, and Doucette and a good bench, they had avery successful season.Perrigo and Doucette played the guards, McDunnah and Patterson, the forwards and Hutchins, the center post. Spooner, Soper, Atwood and Crocker were all good reserves. The J.V. 's had a good season with about 8 wins and 10 losses. Next year the Varsity should have many of these boys playing for them.

Although the team - hard and managed to defeat several of the larger schools, it was handicaped at the b ginning ofthe season by inexperience. With most of the boys returning next year, it is expected that they will trample all opposition, FIRST ROW: Mr. Trask, P. Oliver, V. Carney, B. Gross. B. Good, N. Jewett, J. Herrick, J. be Clair, H.

JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL The Junior High basketball team had a rather poor season with eight games and only one win. The game that we won was Bar Har- bor, here. Old Town gave us the worst beating with a score of 5I to I3. Robert Smith made IOI points for the season. unior CAeerLac!er:i THE JUNIOR HIGH CHEERLEADERS The Junior High Cheerleaders, led by Sharon Drake, were very snappy in their purple skirts and ties and white blouses. The faculty of Bridge Street School selected the girls from grades seven and eight. The girls did c good job cheering the boys on. LEFT TO RIGHT: N. Cunningham, I. Cropley, L. Smith, S, Drake, C.

Cheering has become more organized and more enthusiastic since the for- mation of the group last year. With a different captain each game, this group has supported the cheerleaders well, and done its best to promote good sportsmanship in the school. DRIVERS' EDUCATION The Drivers' Education class, which began the last of October, is an innovation in the high school, and is under the direction of Mr. Elmer Ream. The car was donated by Harriman's Garage. The class, consisting of twenty-four persons, is taught the fundamental operations ofa car, rules of safety, and the correct operations of the car in all types of weather. At the end of the school term, an inspector will come from Augusta to administer a driving test and to issue the drivers Llicenses.
