BASKETBALL On the first of December, Coach Oliver issued a call for basketball players. About thirty-five men answered. After a week’s practice a game was played with the Alumni, and due to the excellence of Captain Wright and Bob Coakley, the high school was able to win. The next week, a game was played with Madrid, in which the Yellow and Brown was again victorious. The next week, the league season opened. Al- though defeated by Norwood in the opening game, Canton soon began to hit her stride and played good basketball until Christmas vacation. Because of the absence of Carl Barber, the team seemed at a loss, and never, until too late in the season, did they show the unusual form which was displayed in the first games of the Northern New York League race. Coach Oliver is losing Wright, Barber, and O’Brien from this year’s team, but the outlook for a winning team next year is very good. Larry O’Brien. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL The girls’ basketball season turned out more favorably this year than in preceding years. The team worked well together under its captain, Cath- erine Howard, and succeeded in defeating Potsdam High School twice and the “Aggies” twice. The C. H. S. team made a good showing against 0. F. A. in each tilt of a home and home series, although they were defeated in both games. The Pyrites team proved a hard match for the Canton girls and C. H. S. again suffered two defeats. Next year our only hope is to produce a cham- pionship team. Most all of the players of this year’s team, with the exception of “Kate” Howard and Marion Crary, will be with us again next year, to aid in the development of a championship aggrega- tion. Marla Snyder. Larry O’Brien. FOOTBALL The outlook for a championship team was very good when about forty-five men reported to Coach John Oliver at the beginning of the school year. Among the last year’s team members who reported were Jimmy Fadden, Glenn Wright, Frank Pitts, “Jerry” Poole, Karl Mayhew, “Doc” Sanford, and “Larry” O’Brien. The team rapidly rounded into shape, so a game was scheduled with St. Mary’s, which was won by Canton, 2Q-7. The next week, the league season opened, which proved to be a very disastrous one for Canton. Al- though the team did not win a league game, they showed their loyal followers that they still had the fight for which Coach Oliver’s teams are always known. A charity game was played with Potsdam on Armistice Day, In this, game, the boys that were ineligible were allowed to play. Although Canton was defeated, it showed that she had some good material and that a good team would be developed next year. We, the members of the Senior Class, wish the best of luck to Coach Oliver and his teams in the years to come, though of course we realize that his most talented athletes are graduating. Larry O’Brien. TRACK The track team reported immediately after Easter vacation, and the following veterans were among the first to sign up: Donnie Crary, Will Thomas, Red Wood, Bob Womack, Harry Wheeler, and Larry O’Brien. Out of this group, and another larger, but less experienced one, Coach Oliver developed a well balanced team, which did its best in supporting the Yellow and Brown in the season of 1933. Several of the members took first places in various meets, and many second places were earned. Due to graduation, Bob Womack, “Red” Wood, and Larry O’Brien will be lost, but the remainder of the squad promises to develop into a good team for next season.
