r ,, X M zu few ff , al Fw i My CL eerzza Llefd This year Chelmsford sport fans were thrilled by the spectacle of twenty-four cheerleaders in red and black velvet uniforms. Coached by the capable and peppy Miss Hehir into a snappy and well-drilled team, they were an impressive part of every athletic contest. Captain janet Bomil led the group, assisted by the sub-captains, Fay Valentine and Rita McDonald, and by the remarkable little mascot, Dottie Ayotte. Our cheerleaders functioned at every football and every basketball game, and concluded their season by entering the cheerleaders' tourna- ment at Littleton, where they received honorable mention for their pyra- mid, Conga line, and locomotive cheers. ty ' 1 l. - rx Each cheerleader wx awarded a letter. f NX K 4, v N 1 N. l .

Q .JK jooldaff The law of averages seems to apply even to athletic success, and certainly the Chelmsford High School football squad has Proved no ex- ception to this rule. After tying our first game with Punchard, we im- mediately ran afoul of bad breaks of all kinds. Many times we came close to victory, but when our hopes were highest, fate slammed the door, and we never quite achieved the desired end. Captain Douglas MacElroy, who turns the controls over to Bruce Campbell, Captain-elect for '48, feels confident that with the aid of the many underclassmen who are returning, next ycar's squad will turn the tables, and with their renewed efforts and valuable experience, change bad luck into good.
