I-} yWof .- THE HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM Who came up with a half and half proposition at the end of the season . . . Having won seven and lost as many .... So no one was too unhappy . . . And Bohuny, star pitcher, was beaming . . . He wound up with six wins and three losses . . . Not bad. Blood. Sweat- and Queers THE H IGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM Composed of forty green prep underclassmen . . And one man with varsity experi- ence . . . All of whom did pretty well — for tenderfeet — in scrimmages with Eastchester and Children ' s Village . . . Won one game . . . Riverdale, six to nothing . . . Sported a broken ankle and a fractured collarbone . . . Rough.

Of Keyhole and Basket COACH VINCENT OLSEN Whose official capacity was Director of Physical Education ... In which he coached high school football and col- lege football basketball . . . When he was not playing bridge ... Or hustling some work out of an innocent new- comer ... Or babbling on about any subject whatsoever. HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL TEAM Who had a fairly good year and a fairly good team . . . . . .Under the wing of Coach Elmer Dobberstein . . . And Captain Dick Duerr . . By making the best possi- ble use of their main asset, height averaging well over six feet . . . Using what in the technical jargon of an en- thusiast was the Big Three Triple Post Offense and Two- two-one Zone Defense . . . All of which got them a spot in the Westchester County Pri- vate and Parochial Schools Tournament . . . And that ' s not bad. COLLEGE BASKETBALL TEAM Whose season was average . . .For lack of a more definitive adjective ... It took lots of self-persuasion to get in there and fight some of those times . . . But New York State Tech took a beating . . . When the team was hot . . . And Weyer- mann.put in thirty-four points . . . Virus X put all but six players in bed just before one conference game, even Cap- tain Fred Heineman . . . But Coach Olsen, assisted by school nurse Petts and the Olsen Blue Bus, always pulled ihem through ... In some condition . . . And so the season went.

For the Sake of Spirit THE CHEERLEADERS Who cheered Team ' s Ho: when it was the truth and when it was only a wish . . . ' With Co-captains Kempf and Garttner . . . Plenty of bruises . . . Plenty of noise . . . Plenty of praise . . . And wide eyes on the bench . . . Which were not so wide but just as admir- ing for the four High School boys who yelled as well . . . Sometimes good, sometimes bad . . . We loved em all. JL he basketball pep rally in the gym ... A near riot . . And loads of fun . . . Complete with Ish Gezinte and the of- ficial band . . . Posters, bal- loons . . . Loud colors and louder noise. THE TWIRLERS Rainbow-hued arms of black, blue, and green hidden undei what the gals described as out- grown uniforms with choking collars . . . But they brighten- ed up a few games . . . And, I suspect, had fun in the process . . . With Captain Eleanor Wendte.
