BASEBALL Coach John Burke found a sizeable group of re- turning veterans on which to build the foundation for this yearls varsity. Among these are: John Burke jr., Bob Heywood, Bob Ayres, Charlie Hall, jim Dowd, and Brad Palmer. Newcomers include: Bo Farmer, Bill Broas, Roland Batsoh, Don Walsh, and Mike Dowd. Ralph Emerson, Ted Villanueva, and Steve Palmer, head another group of prospective can- didates. We opened the season with an 8-6 triumph over Morristown School. Our team rallied for four runs in the fifth inning and then duplicated the feat in the last frame. Bob Ayres and John Burke provided timely hitting. After losing to Pingry School, we trounccd Montclair Immaculate Conception High School, 7-4. John Burke pitched masterful ball, allow- ing only two hits, and the hitting of B0 Farmer stood out. All signs point to an outstanding season. Seated, left to right: Bo Farmer, Bob Ayres, john Burke, Brad Palmer, jim Dowd.

We don't claim that this has been the best book put out but we do claim that we have worked hard to gather material that would interest everyone and that would give a clear concise picture of the year passed. The staff should be congratulated not only for cooperating whole heartedly with each other but also for giving their time to write the articles. We wish, in addition, to express our sincere thanks to Mr. Wilkie for always being on hand to advise us. STAN: lfllzfm' .. RODMAN D.

FOOTB LL The Carteret football team made its first season under Coach John Burke a suc- cessful one by winning three out of Hve games. A squad of about twenty reported for practice the first day, and though many of the boys were inexperienced, they all showed the ability to learn fast. C teret lost it's initial game to an experienced Montclair Academy team, but came . . d ar back to trim Rutgers Prep, 12-0. This latter contest was featured by particularly goo line play by the victors. The next week our boys traveled to Morristown School and lost a very close game 21-13. We almost pulled the struggle out of the Hre in the last quarter with two touchdowns, but a short- age of time and too capable an opponent proved too much for us. The team then finished the season in a blaze of glory with two straight victories. Led by Bo Farmer and Jim Dowd, we beat our big rival, Pingry, 13-0.
