ATHLETICS Cape Elizabeth High School Athletic Association An Athletic Association was organized this year in our school with the aims of fostering school spirit, furnishing finances for athletic expenses, and getting the stu- dents interested in athletics. One year's membership, which cost the student 31.00, entitled the subscriber to one year's free admission to all home basketball games, to the use of the games and equip- ment purchased and owned by the Association, and a vote at all meetings of the Association. Over two-thirds of the student body enrolled and the Association proved to be a success. Besides the athletic equipment purchased for the various teams, several games were bought for the amusement of the members. These games and equipment con- sisted of four ping-pong tables, a shuiiieboard outfit, and badminton and volley-ball nets. Surplus funds were spent on the tennis courts. In order to raise more funds a drive was made to sell season tickets to outsiders. This drive swelled considerably the funds in the treasury. The gate receipts from the games also went into the treasury. Rallies were held before all the games and the Association had a bleacher section reserved for the members at the games. The Association has a constitution which was formulated by Mr. Peterson. The officers of the Association were chosen by the Student Council and are: President, Howard Tukey Secretary, Phyllis Pray Vice-President, Harry Quinn Treasurer, Richard Dearborn Summary-Triple C Track Meet IC.

Cape Eliza- heth took second place to Falmouth's powerful and well-balanced team. Winners for the Cape were llarry Quinn and Clayton Erskine, who took second and third, respectively, in the 220-yard dash. Andre Benoit, an inexperienced runner, tied for second with Morton of Falmouth in the most exciting race ot' the entire meet. Rod Gardner placed third in the discus and t'harles Martin second in the high-jump. Philip llarmon ran a game mile but was nosed for third place. The star of the meet and high point winner was Bob Brink, who got first place in the shot-put, discus, high-jump, and tied for tirst in the ln'oad-juinp. lle set a new record in the high-jump. Considering that the squad was made up ol' almost entirely untried men, the team did well. lf faithful practice and constant improvement mean anything, our school has a good chance of placing well up among the first in the Maine State lnterscholastics, which will probably be over by the time this book is published.
