We have seen how she has taken a genuine interest in us and with patience and understanding has helped us with our problems. We have seen how she has given unselfishly of her time and talents in everything that we have undertaken, despite our shortcomings and irresponsibilities. To Miss Zimpel we owe our heart-felt thanks.

With a nucleus of last year,s team, including seniors Harry Paquin, Frank Rychcik, Dave Campbell back, the B.H.-B.L. kickers got off to a rousing start this fall. They went undefeated through their first games until they ran into tough Waterford. There, in one of the best soccer games seen in years our boys lost a heart breaking 2-0 decision. After another loss to league champion Watervliet they started another winning streak which included sinking our new arch-rival, Schenendehowa, for the second time. They ended a very successful season with a T-4 record. SWL, Y :Mali K, i 7' S- . 'S ' Opponent B.H.-B.L. Opponent B.H.-B.L.

Paced by senior Charlie Carder, they beat our new arch-rival Schenendehowa in their first start. They then went on to win their next games until running into tough Stillwater. Here they met their first defeat. However, they never stopped fighting and ended with an 8-6 league record and a 12-6 overall record after narrowly missing a chance of winning the close Saratoga County League.

'Dig V70 R .si Here is the end of Bernt s letter and here we are at the last page of our hook. We are now in the last lap of twelve or thirteen years in public school. As these years draw to a close we look forward with some apprehension and regret to an event in the near future which will mark The End-Graduation. They say these years have been our happiest years. Maybe. Certainly we have many happy memories and acquaintances to remind us of these years. But now we are on the threshold of a new life-one of a new independence and added responsibility. Some will go on to higher educations and others will take jobs and establish new homes in this great country of ours. We hope that this hook will be instrumental in reviving cherished memories when we become widely separated. May God bless us the Class of 1954- and may we have many happy reunions. Sic vale.
