In basketball, football, baseball, and all varsity sports, the Raiders through the years have acquired a tradition as the team to beat on the Shore. Yet, not too many years ago many sports, such as golf, and tennis, were non- existent in school, and the stronger sports like football and baseball, struggled along with what equipment could be begged, borrowed, or brought from home. But through all, Cambridge High has displayed the spirit that makes a winning team.

Football has always been an integral part of CHS life whether the season was victorious or not. Even though they lacked uniforms and much of the other expensive equipment available for today’s players, the 1908 gridders fought hard to bring glory to their school. LYING DOWN: Briley Wright, Spence Phelps. SECOND ROW: George Hudnut, Gilbert Mcckins, Lloyd Shorter, Vaughn Stevenson. BACK ROW': Henry Bramble, Ray Goslin, Harry Phelps, Coach Pete Basset, Robert Warren, and J. Richard Smith. Although the letters earned by the members of the 1909 CHS football team look quite different from those worn by the 1964 squad, they were certainly no less proud of them, for getting them required many hard hours of practice. The Cambridge High line-up in 1909 were: FRONT ROW: George Hudnut, Gilbert Meekins, Tom Kerr, Spence Phelps, Lloyd Shorter. SECOND ROW: Vaughn Stevenson, Harry Phelps, Briley Wright, Howard Matthews. BACK ROW: Ben Robbins, Bob Warren. STANDING: Edward Harris.

This scene is a basketball game played in the old gym. To relate to the present locations, the boys on the stage would be in the art room, the players would be in the hall between the art, French, and home economics rooms, the fans at the lower left would be in the French room, and the photog- rapher in the home ec room. In addition, all the area above the exit sign is now empty space, with the ceiling supported by cables hung from the roof. A trap door and ladder in the Shrine Room closet give access to this space. Tennis is not a new sport at CHS. For many years it has been one of the most popular Spring activities. Although play- ing facilities were not as good in 1938 as they arc today, the team performed remark- ably well. The clay tennis court shown above has since been replaced by two asphalt courts and the dress of the players has changed considerably. The 1938 net- men were: Margaret Richardson, Russell Davis, Charles Hurlock, Vcach Hurley, Arnold Nichols, Irving Feldman, and Margaret Mowbray. 10
