In its ear- lier years it witnessed the difficulties of the youthful United States in the Na- poleonic era ending in the war of 1812. It witnessed the war with Mexico, the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, and, only some twenty-five years ago, the first of the great World Wars. Now students during the school year 1942- 43 have experienced the disruptions and difficulties attendant upon a new na- tional crisis. During all these periods, the school has maintained its existence and played its full part in contributing to the needs of the country. Cheshire alumni in generous numbers have dedicated themselves to their country in war. Of these we need only mention such national figures as Admiral Foote, Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy in Lincoln's cabinet, and Commodore Hitchcock, who gave distinguished service during the Civil War. During the fall of l942 the student body at Cheshire again lost many to the armed services of the country. As a result, normal scholastic life was dis- rupted and changed. Many school activities were modified or to a great extent eliminated. With all the resultant restlessness on the part of the students, their spirit was unbroken. If anything, their work in the classroom was improved, especially that of the older boys, who ambitiously prepared for entry into train- ing schools for officers or specialized branches of the Army or Navy. To help the student adjust himself better to a world at war either in a civilian or military capacity, the Academy made several significant changes and additions to its flexible curriculum. Though greater emphasis was naturally placed on Mathematics and the Sciences, the fundamentals of a good liberal education were not neglected. The English courses stressed the elements of good composition and vocabulary building: and the study of a book like Thus Be it Ever gave one a knowledge of the contrasting concepts of democracy and fascism and an understanding of the fundamental causes of the present con- flict as expressed in the literature of the past and the present. The American History course stressed not only facts but the development of American dra- matic ideals. To help the student prepare himself for the Navy V-12 and simi- lar service training programs, elective courses in Aerodynamics Qincluding the principles of Flight, Machines, Aerial Navigation, Meteorologyj and the stand- ard United States Army Signal Corps Morse Code were given. Thus the student left the Academy, if he took advantage of his educational opportunities, well prepared to make his maximum contribution to his country in war or peace. The editors of the 1943 year book realize that the record they have pre- pared of activities on the Cheshire campus during this year is of necessity in- complete, since much of the activity is not to be expressed in sports nor in glee club concerts nor similar student affairs, but rather in a greater understanding and realization of the significance of world affairs and of their part in the pres- ent and future of their country. However, it is well to have even an imperfect memory of the stirring year through which we have all passed: and we trust that what we have here prepared will serve to recall throughout the years of the future, fond memories of one critical year in the days of our youth. 20 Rolling Stone Board Editor GERALD SUGARMAN Managing Editor DAVID HANNEGAN Art Editor ARNOLD SABIN News Editor MARTIN ROTHBLUM Business Manager MURRY SCHWOLSKY Exchange Editor JEROME FREEDMAN Sports Editor JOSEPH MCGRATH Junior School Notes XVILLIAM SHAW Advertising Manager ROBERT ORTON Features.Department RAYMOND PAYNTER Faculty Advisor J.

Patterson: Secretary- Treasurer, R. Hall. WHEELER: President, R. L. Smith: Vice-President, B. Craig: Secretary- Treasurer, D. Russell. The Council was made up of these nine boys and Messrs. Chubb, Crans- ton, Golden, Motroni, MacGoWan and Harvey. Bill Harney, Bryan Broad- foot and Bruce Craig were President, Vice-President and Secretary-Treasurer respectively. Its function during the year was mainly advisory and it was not otherwise very active. The competition among the clubs was not particularly keen, as the Welles Club excelled in practically all branches of inter-club competition, particularly in club sports. The individual competition was particularly good, through the all around ability of both Podoloff and McGrath, Podoloff winning because of a greater participation in varsity sports. ff iii M - gil law m !

Uncle Sam caused us to change Treas- urers twice and Presidents once. Mr. Robinson, who started the year as Treas- urer, resigned, because of the pressure of his duties as State Director of Selective Service. Mr. Motroni, who succeeded Mr. Robinson, was inducted into the United States Army shortly after he took oliice. Mr. Golden, who succeeded Mr. Motroni, iinished the year but asked for a leave of absence at the end of the year to serve the State Department in Spanish Morocco. Bruce Craig, who started the year as President, graduated in February and entered the Army Air Corps. The student membership was somewhat below normal but since we had a considerable sum of money left over from the preceding year it was possible for us to make generous contributions to our usual charities, such as the Red Cross, the U.S.O., the British-American Ambulance Fund, and the Infantile Paralysis Fund. The Chapel of the Good Shepherd With the renovation of the old Chapel above the library in Bronson Hall, one more link in the tradition of the school was strengthened. Boys of the school of all creeds and faith worked together in the re-establishment of the Chapel, which has developed rapidly during the past two years. During the school year 1942-43, our Chaplain, Mr. Parker, was very helpful indeed, working to good advantage with a Chapel Committee and in particular doing much to further the accumulation of a special Chapel fund. the main purpose of which is eventually to provide a new organ. Mr. Keedy was faithful in furnishing the music for Sunday morning serv- ices. 85 Debating SHALL THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PASS LEGISLATURE REGULATING STRIKES was the topic of debate last year. Members of the team led by Joseph McGrath and David Hannegan pro- duced worthy arguments both pro and con. Lee Rich and Bill Rickerd, also members of the team, were capable opponents for any point of contention. Although there were few inter-scholastic meets last year, Cheshire found its greatest tilt in a meet with Taft. Led by Howard Taft, grandson of the founder of the school, the Taft School debaters put up a great fight. In looking forward to inter-scholastic meets during 1943 and 1944, the debating team shall face its old rivals again. and shall see several new addi- l'1OIlS. Whatever the topic and whoever the opponent, the Cheshire debating teams could be relied upon for interesting, scholastic and sportsmanlike efforts. Camera Activities This year although no concrete camera club was organized, the boys who were interested in photography did pool their knowledge of this hobby and together produced some really fine work, John Ettlinger was the leader of the group and donated much time and knowledge for the benefit of the others. The entire group consisted of Arnold Sabin, Leonid Ehin, Merwin Liss, Lowell Cohn, Dowling Frank Stackpole, and Richard Raphael. These students made much use of the dark room and gained valuable experience shooting sports events, campus shots, informal pics of students and masters, and classroom activities. John A. Ettlinger, President Richard Raphael Arnold Sabin Leonid Ebin Merwin Liss D. Frank Stackpole M Glee Club 'llhe Cilee Club during the year was relatively inactive. No concerts were given but members of the club gathered weekly under the direction ot' Mr. liianlt Keedy. 'liheir numbers were few, because so many senior students were forced to leave the school or were forced to concentrate their efforts on more pressing activities, Those who were able to come out regulzirly, however. en- joyed the singing and derived much beneht.

Dur- ing the fall and winter on nearly every Monday evening a group of the Acad- emy players presented rt program of historical sketches from 8:15 to 8:30, over the radio station XV.A.T.R. of Waterbury. The program, entitled Amer- ica's Yesterdays , included such episodes as Braddock's Defeat , The Johns- town Flood , Nathan Hale , and The Pony Express. The faculty ad- visors were Mr. Arthur Stephen Von Glahn and Mr. Alexander Hay Leh- mann, Jr. John Ettlinger and Jerome Freedman acted as Production Man- agers, and during the fall Lester Lonergan, 3rd, was Director of Productions. Jimmy Jones served as Press Agent. Among those who distinguished them- selves in this series were Stephen Tiebout, Leslie Cahill, Lowell Cohn, Byron Clark, Bryan Broadfoot, David Hannegan, Dowling Frank Stackpole. John Claffey, Gerard Meyers, Herbert Frumkes, John Robinson, Arnold Sabin and Alvin Wagner. During the month of May, under the direction of Mr. Lehmann, players were successful in presenting George M. Cohan's farce comedy, 'TThe Tavern, on May 8th for the students, and on May l0th for the general public. The stage setting was excellent, the direction was of the best, and the acting was both amusing and thoroughly done. Much of the credit for this success should go to Mr. Lehmann, because of his direction and of his casting. David Han- ncgan was particularly effective in the leading role and was given worthy sup- port by all members of the cast, among whom should be mentioned Bill Rick- erd, Gerry Meyers, Bryan Broadfoot, Jim Jones, Winston Elstob, Roger Jack- son, Frank Stackpole, Tom Golden, Jack Claffey, and Joe McGrath. Behind the scenes, led by Bill Scripps, the technical staff did excellent work. Among them were William Rickerd, Gerry Meyers, Winston Elstob, Philip Cockefair, Bill Montgomery, Frank Stackpole, and Mrs. Porter, prompter. 69 Outing Club The Outing Club was organized early in the spring of 1943 and was very popular with the more open air students. Those students who took an active part in the club were John Edman, Sam Shope, Milton Wuischpard, Ronald Parslow, Edward Harrison and Byron Clark. The officers of the club were Joe Yadgaroff, President, Jerome Freedman, Vice-President, and James Braxton, Secretary-Treasurer. As its headquarters, the club proceeded to clean up the log cabin behind the Commando Course, which at the time was in great disrepair. The clean-up of the cabin and its environ was the great task, its interior furnishings and decorations having been completely vandalized. The boys prof ceeded to construct six bunks, fix up the interior and clean up surrounding woods. In all, the group made several trips out to the cabin and each proved equally enjoyable. Next year the club will be continued with John Edman and Byron Clark as leaders. Q 90 l The Infirmary In 1941 the infirmary was moved to a house acquired by Mrs. Porter and leased to the Academy for this purpose. This was done because our former infirmary had proved inadequate and was often overcrowded. The present in- firmary is larger and has a well equipped kitchen. The rooms are all bright and cheery. With the new infirmary also came a new nurse, Florence N. Colf, R.N. Mrs. Colf graduated from Buffalo Hospital, the city from which she originates. Mrs. Colf has had many years' experience practicing in Buffalo and New York. Although this is her first experience at an academic institution, she was not once fooled by boys feigning illness in order to escape the drudgery of daily classes. The patients were well looked after by the School doctors, Dr. Moore and Dr. Oxnard, who have examined the boys at least once each day. Mrs. Colf looked after the comfort of the patients, and there was no rationing of fruit juices and medicines. Also at the infirrnary was Miss Grace Donahue, who has been for many years in charge of the school linen room. Miss Donahue is very capable in her job as head of the linen room and she assisted and relieved Mrs. Colf in the infirmary. 91 S. S. S. I. C. The Secondary Schools Society of International Cooperation. This society Qwith its sibilant initialsj was organized at Westover School, November 27, 1927, in accordance with the proposals of Miss Hillard, head mistress of Westover, who had always been much interested in international cooperation, and who for several years served as its president. Since her death in 1933, the society has continued in a simpler form, to hold two meetings a year at the various member schools, in rotation, to which are invited five delegates, including one faculty member, from each of the twelve member schools. The meetings are held on Sunday, from 10 AM. to 4 P.M. Each school has charge of its own program, which includes a discussion of some pre-arranged subject, followed in the afternoon by an address by a speaker from outside. The member schools are: Avon, Canterbury, Choate, Cheshire, Ethel XValker, Hillside, Loomis, Rosemary, St. Margaret's, Taft, Westover, Wyke- ham Rise. Mr. Bernard M. Allen has been the faculty representative from Cheshire at most of the meetings until the last school year, since when Mr. H. Vigor Crans- ton has taken his place. Under the direction of Mr. Cranston, Cheshire was again represented at the two meetings of the S. S. S. l. C. The first of these was held at Choate on December 6th. The topics discussed naturally had to do with the war situation, and included the degree of cooperation among the United Nations, the sub- ject of unity after the World War, and various aspects of pOSt-War reconstruc- tion. These discussions were followed by a talk by Professor Fletcher of Yale University. The second meeting, held on Sunday, May 9th, took place at St. Mar- guret's School in Waterbury. This time Mr. Cranston attended as faculty ad- visor. The subject of the conference was the Negro problem. Papers were read by representatives of our schools among whom was David Hannegan of Ches- hire, whose topic was The Negro of Latin America. Those who attended the meetings, in addition to Mr. Cranston, were David Hannegan, Truman Boyes, William Clark, Thomas Golden and James Braxton. 92 Publications 1942-43 This year the Publications were hampered in many ways by the effects of war on our student body and the fact that the Board was functioning under a new faculty advisor, Mr. Joseph K. Atkins, and was itself relatively inexperi- enced. The first issue of the Academy Review got under way with an indefi- nite staff composed of students best fitted for their respective positions. The staff changed much for the first term as several boys were called into the service at the time. Later in the year, however, an election of permanent editors was held and Gerald Sugarman was elected Editor-in chief of th: Rcuferu and the ROLLING STONE Board. Because of war stringencies, issues during the year were limited to six, but these were well done, especially the Commencement issue, which was able to include detailed news of all commencement features, Alto were included up-to- the-minute photographs of the Commencement Ball, held the previous evening. The staff of the Academy Review was quite large and proved capable and efficient. Much credit is to be attributed to Gerald Sugarman as Editor-in- Chief of the paper and the year book. David W. Hannegan likewise was an energetic helper and contributor. The complete list of all editors and contribu- tors will be found elsewhere in this volume. The Review was divided into many interesting sections in order to cover all events and happenings at the school, as well as provide an outlet for the journalistic ambitions of many of our students. Other departments beside the News and Sports departments, were: the Exchange, by which news of doings at other schools could be written up for the readers: the Alumni Notes, provid- ing news of Cheshire alumni: Features: Editorials: and i'The lnquisitiv: Re- porter . Among the many interesting contributions were special articles dur- ing the year by Herman Spitz, John Ettlinger, John Phelan, Harold Cross- lcy, Jerome Freedman, Arnold Sabin and Byron Clark. At the last meeting of the Publications Staff, an election was held in which the Editor for next year's paper was elected: David Hannegan. .:.-I3 1-W,-4-Qld? 1 X in , 5 rat 4 E g M , f 1 Q!! fl , , f Heswnus f sal ' !QEA3E IIHUI li --: '1 iliilifh, MW t -:rl We ,Q iw 'H W tl TA! , , 'Thx 'X ii. ll.Yl ' .. 93 Senior Dances Although the spirit of the times during the year was not exactly condu- cive to such relative frivolities as dancing. the seniors of the Academy were suc- cessful in this respect on two occasions. On Saturday night, March 6, 1943, the first of these occasions, which might be characterized as the 'lluke Box affair, was held in Bowden Hall. No orchestra was engaged, the music for the dance being provided entirely by the small colored box sitting prominently on the stage of the hall. The room was attractively decorated and the library proved to be a pleasant place for relaxation between times. The guests were en- tertained at a dinner in Hurley Hall preceding the dance, which began at about nine o'clock. The annual senior prom was held in the gymnasium on the evening of May 24th. This affair also was opened by a dinner in Hurley Hall. The gym- nasium was very attractively decorated and the music was furnished by Eddie Wittstein's excellent ten-piece orchestra. The only interruption was a surprise black-out at nine-twenty p.m., but this did not last long and dancing continued gaily until one o'clock in the morning. For these dances students were indebted to the members of the senior com- mittee, including Andrew Joseph Jackson, Bruce Campbell Craig, George Thompson Russell,pWilliamA Robert Harney, Lee Weiland Rich, Albert Ham- ilton Shafer, Harold Buffington Crossley and Gerald Sugarman. jfffxl f a W PROM Qt tw ,ia i I . x xl 4.1 ,iw li 3 b 'll f,Y. if i ,, K.-Fff?, 1 H .W .

I , M V ' D8 Sports Review Because of the acuteness of the war situation, athletic activities at Ches- hire, as at most private schools, were necessarily greatly curtailed. The foot- ball season was complete and, on the whole, successful. True enough, the team lost the majority of its games, but the members played well and with a very line degree of spirit. Difliculty was occasioned in securing games for other than the first team: the junior varsity, the intermediates, and the juniors not par- ticipating to any great extent. After the football season, senior boys began to be called into the Service. Such representative athletes as Captain Poulakis of the football team, Les Cahill, Edward Mariano, and Charles Fogarty, were lost to the school either in December or soon after the Christmas vacation. As a result, although a pro- gram of hockey games was carried out, it was without real success: and even the basketball season, which was largely informal, although it included a num- ber of games with worthy opponents, was hardly a representative one. During the spring some games were played in baseball, but track was restricted to in- tra-mural competition and the tennis team had only one important match, that against Columbia freshmen. As a partial substitute for athletic competition, more stress than usual was laid on calisthenics and body developing exercise, including the newly construct- ed commando course. Morevoer, competition among the clubs was particularly spirited. ' All in all, although athletic competition during the year 1942-43 could not be considered a success from the normal point of view, it did reflect the times during which we were passing, and it did have its own significant contribution to the needs of the day. 99 gif? Football The high spot of the Academy's five-game schedule last fall was the un- expected victory over a powerful LaSalle Military Academy Eleven in the third game of the season on Cheshire's home grounds. Of the other games, three were lost. SUPFIELD, 8-CHESHIRE, 0 In the first game of the season, on a windy September afternoon, the Acad- emy was beaten by the well-drilled Suffield team on the opponents grounds. In the closing minutes of the third quarter, Suffield scored on a safety. Within the next few minutes Eddie Mariano's pass was intercepted by a Suflield player. who ran a beautiful 30 yards for a touchdown. Savage and Smith successfully blocked the attempt for extra point, the score remaining at a total of 8 to O. For the last quarter, both teams drove up and down the middle of the field, with little chance of either's scoring. CHESHIRE, 6--VJESTMINSTER, O On the following Saturday the Academy traveled to Simsbury to meet the Westminster eleven. On a reverse from Mariano to Fogarty on the opening kickoff, Fogarty raced sixty yards for the only score of the game. Poulakis's attempt for the extra point was blocked. Booming spiral kicks by Roger Hall kept Cheshire's opponents deep in the shadows of their own goal posts for most of the game. In the second half, the Academy's passing strategy was hindered by a light rain: but Poulakis and Savage intercepted two Westminster passes, and both teams roared up and down the field at a tremendous pace until the final gun. CHESHIRE, 7-LASALLE, 6 An impressive LaSalle team came to Cheshire with every surface indica- tion of being able to walk away with the third game. The power of the Ches- hire team surprised no one more than the Cheshire boys themselves. and under its impact Poulakis raced fifty yards with an intercepted passed ball for a touch- 100 down. Gus himself kicked the extra point. LaSalle scored in the last minute or two of the game, but the extra point was not good. The line consisted of outstanding players, including Smith, Cahill, Harney, Jackson, Mills, and Savage. The whole team played a really brilliant game, from opening whistle to closing gun, with beautiful kicking by Hall and running by Fogarty, Mari- ano, and Poulakis. , COLUMBIA ERESHMEN, 13-CHESHIRE, 0 '. On October 30th, the Academy team traveled to the Big City to compete against a heavy and well-drilled Columbia freshman team. The-Academy boys played IOOW football throughout the game. Not until :the second half was the first score made. Then the greater weight of the opponents began to tell, and in each of the last two quarters the Columbia locomotive pushed the ball over the line. NEW YORK MILITARY ACADEMY, 28-CHESHIRE, 7 Heavily outweighed by a team that everybody admitted in the first few minutes of play was the best in every respect that Cheshire has faced in years, the Academy went down to a not inglorious defeat in its last game of the year. NYMA had weight-but it also had precision and know-how such as few teams have had in the experience of the watcher of the game. The Academy held the score to 7-0 for the first half. In the third period, NYMA scored on a short pass and the extra point was good. A few minutes later a line plunge produced another touchdown, with its extra point bringing the score to 21-O. In the closing quarter it happened again, making the score 28-0. Later Mariano faded back to his own 47-yard line to throw a perfect pass to Poulakis on the NYMA 30-yard line. Poulakis carried the ball over. and successfully kicked the extra point. The iinal score was 28 to 7, in a game gallantly fought to the last echo of the closing whistle.

THE SCHEDULE Suflield, away Cheshire O Westminster, away Cheshire 6 LaSalle, home Cheshire 7 Columbia, '46 Cheshire 0 NYMA, home Cheshire 7 Totals 20 Q 0 N BAIEBAL X Baseball The 1943 Cheshire Academy baseball team, under Coach Paul Davis. ended its worst season in recent years with 'a record of no wins and four losses. Although the personnel of the club was good, it never functioned smoothly. Opening its season against a strong Yale J.V. club, Cheshire was downed 1 l to 3. Blake Walker, a Yale varsity pitcher, held the Cheshire team in check with his blazing fast ball. A week later, under a gray sky, a lanky right-hander named Jackson held Cheshire to four hits and two runs, Crosby winning ll to 3, battering Yale and Curren unmercifully on the mound. Several days later, a spirited Cheshire team took the field against Choate, a team with a powerful batting attack. ln this game, Coach Davis made numer- ous changes in order to break the losing streak of Cheshire. Don Russell was nominated to pitch, Bill Moore moved from first to third base, and Jacobson came in from the outfield to play first base. But once again it was too much Choate power plus a loose Cheshire infield that gave Choate a ll to 3 victory. MacPhie pitched well for the winners, scattering four Cheshire hits. In the final game of the season at Columbia, Cheshire suffered its fourth straight defeat, being beaten ll to 3 to the Columbia freshmen. George Rus! sell, pitching his first game all year, was leading 2 to l going into the fifth. But in that disastrous frame the Collegians garnered nine runs to put the game away. For Cheshire Joe McGrath, who played great ball all year at short, got three solid hits, to be the individual star of the day. Cheshire suffered a bad break when Al Shafer, star second sacker, hurt his leg in infield practice and was unable to play. Although the Academy nine showed no wins to its credit, it had great spirit all year and with the aid of some better batting and some better breaks, the story may have been quite different. The Cheshire lineup throughout the season was lb, Moore: Zb, Shafer: ss., McGrath: 3b, D. Russell: l.f., Jacobson: c.f., Mills: r.f., Patterson: p., Curran: G. Russell, and Yale: c, Jackson and Dretzin: p and infield, Hall. Manager, Polito. 103 ZX' XA-1 X BASKETBALL say M J'ZlPl 10 NSKY Basketball The Academy varsity basketball team began light workouts before the Christmas vacation and settled down to real practice only after the recess. Coach John Foots Roller, picked the starting line-up for the first game against Leav- enworth High School of Waterbury, on our own court on January 15th. Moore and Werner were at the forwards, Webster and Mariana at guards, and Fogarty at center. Cheshire played well, but not quite well enough. The Leavenworth boys took the game with a score of 28 to 22. The Academy high scorers were Mariano and Fogarty. On February 4th the Academy five traveled to Naugatuck for two games. The second-string game was won by Naugatuck by 46 to 21: but the Acad- emy seconds showed good form, and Duke Daley led the scoring honors with 8 points. The varsity game proved exciting, because two of our men, Fogarty and Mariano, had been members of the New England Championship team- Naugatuck, no less-the year before. Bill Harney played at forward, succeeding Werner, who had graduated in January. Cheshire stayed in the game for the first half, but in the third half Mariano went out on fouls. Webster led the at- tack with 8 points, and Moore followed with 5, the iinal score being 60 to 28 in favor of Naugatuck. 0 The following Monday Branford College came to Cheshire for the third game. Branford started with a bang: but the Academy rallied in the last quar- ter to raise the score by 20 points as against the opponents' 8, producing a final score of 43 to 4l in favor of Branford. Mariano and Fogarty tallied 26 points between them. For the next two days the team had a hard workout preparing for the Yale freshman game on February 10th. The Academy five invaded the Payne Whitney gymnasium in high spirit and played one of the nicest basketball games in the history of the Academy. From the starting whistle to the final gun, Cheshire was in the game, the final score, in Cheshire's favor, being 43 to 36. Fogarty won the honors with 14 points, Mariano tailing him with ll. After the loss of our Captain, Eddie Mariano, to the Navy, Cheshire traveled to Hamden to play the high school. The Hamden team outplayed the Academy and won by a score of 47 to 20. Fogarty again took scoring honors, with 13 to his credit. On February 24th, Cheshire played its last game of the season, against Taft, at Watertown. The less said about this game, the kinder: for the boys came home with a trouncing to the tune of 55 to l8. Bill Moore scored high for the Academy, with 7 points to his credit. The season as a whole could not be considered too successful. Sickness, just serious enough to interfere with hard and regular practice, accounted for most of the trouble. Fogarty and Mariano were high scorers for the season. Underclassmen who won their varsity letters in basketball were Dretzin, Clark, Golden, Jackson, Daley, Easterbrook, and Yntema. 105 THE LINEUP VARSITY Right Forward ......, .,..

Clark Hockey The 1943 hockey team consisted of Shafer, Yale and Boyes on the lirst line. Patterson. Rowland, and Podoloff made up the second line. The defense men were Hall and Geary, with Polito in the nets. On the second defense were Savage and Mills. Substitutes were Buendia and Stern. The team was coached by Jack Goddard, resident of Cheshire and Academy alumnus. Except for veterans Hall, Geary and Polito, the team was composed of relatively unsea- soned material. All of the games were played in the New Haven Arena against Hillhouse, Hamden and West Haven. These teams together with Cheshire composed the high school league. At the end of the year Cheshire was at the bottom of the league. This was due to Cheshire's inability to practice. The material and spirit of Cheshire's team was excellent. The other teams, all coming from New Haven, were able to practice at the Arena three and four times a week, which Cheshire could not do. The outdoor ice for 1943 was also very bad. This clinched matters and Cheshire was going on the ice without any practice from game to game. This was n shame, as the material was of the best, and with some practice it would have made a line showing at the Arena. Boyes was elected Captain for 1944. 106 Soccer The problems of wartime transportation made it seem advisable to con- Hne our soccer activities to intra-mural contests. A series of inter-club games was started in October and continued through the first half of November. Each club played about fifteen games, most of which were very spirited. Oftentimes the keenness of rivalry was greater than that shown in inter-school games. After a fairly close race throughout the season, the Foote Club Wound up the winner. - Tennis With bad weather as the biggest hindrance, the tennis team was called to practice under the able direction of Skipper Cranston. The way the six-man team was picked was through a tournament in which every student was eligible to compete. Al Shafer was chosen Captain and number 1 man: Bryan Broadfoot, 2: Don Russell, 3: and Tommy Golden, 4. The fifth and sixth men were the two promising juniors, Bob Easterbrook and Byron Clark. On account of difficulties of transportation there was only one match. On May 14th the team traveled to New York, where they met a powerful Columbia freshman team. The Cheshire netsters lost 8 to l, with Shafer taking the only winning match. Track Track activities were confined to an inter-club meet held May l4th. No remarkable records were made, but the events were keenly contested, and keen rivaly was shown by all three clubs. Wheeler was the winner, gaining 69 lf6 points: Foote barely nosed out Welles. 4816 to 46 lf3. Golden of the Welles Club was the individual winner, scoring 28 points, closely followed by Rich of the Foote Club, with 23 points. l 07 f. , ir 'k -k 'A' f a Members ofthe Class of Iune '43 Who Are in the Service William Bakerlt Vance Patton Braxton.

Never backward falling, Never fear appalling, On we press, we never rest, For victory and glory we are calling! Teammates fighting, comrades cheering, Each for each the pathway clearing, Victory is surely nearing. Glory for C. A. Cheshire fields with age are hoary, Cheshire ways are paths to glory, Proud tradition tells our story, Honor, truth, and light! Ever fighting cleanly, Never winning meanly, Fair to foe and true to friend, In winning or in losing we play keenly! School and home and God and nation, Faith to all is our salvation, And in faith is exaltation, Vict'ry for thc right! 119 'fi xy if-Af. .vA., 1-.mg , In K 3 QM 2.51: .Q.fya3',ILW ,.
