l JUNIOR VARSITY Hockey 64, Game! 61. Gagqzn Maybe all the adult persons hereabouts were thrilled with the mild, open winter just passed, but our puck chasers were chagrined by the lack of ice on Roberts Field and the impos- sibility of practicing together. Lest this sound like an alibi, we'll stop here to congratulate the league winners and give the story of our own games. Mr. Gerard Deeley again acted as coach and like every good competitor he simply says, WVatch us next year ENGLISH 4-DORCHESTER 2 Captain Bill Cahill made a valiant attempt to save the day for Dorchester as English High School scored a 4- 2 victory. Bill scored two goals with able assists by Mal MacLeod and Bock Leonard. Joe Kelly, Jack Ioyce, VValter Hughes, Danny O,Toole, and Paul Degnan also played outstanding hockey throughout the fast game. BOSTON TECHNICAL 4- DORCHESTER O The Red and Black suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of two fast-skating Artisans with Bob Anderson winning the high scoring honors. Bill Cahill, Dan OiToole, Joe Kelly and the rest of the squad made gallant tries but all were in vain. DORCHESTER 3 - ROXBURY MEMORIAL 2 The Dunbar Durables pulled a 3- 2 victory out of the bag as they bested the Memorial co- horts at the Boston Arena. Entering the game as underdogs, their victory was so much the sweeter. Harvey Goldstein led the Red and Black attack by scoring two goals one of which was a major penalty shot, and Bill Cahill kindly obliged with the final score which marked the margin of victory. Dan- ny O'Toole and Oscar Cohen were brilliant on defense. RED AND BLACK 49

BASKETBALL SQUAD Basketball dy Spam Akeafzjky The Dorchester High School Quintet, playing a good brand of basketball finished the season with a nine and five record. Losing their first game to the Conference Champs, English High, they played inspired ball to win their next five games. One of these wins was over runner-up Boston Trade. After this five game streak, the team slumped losing two close games to Boston College High and Technical. With any break at all, this team could have come in second or possibly first place. Much of the team's success is due to the expert coaching of George Barry who was ably assisted by manager John Cunningham. The high scorer was Captain Larry Bushey who was second to joe Ross of Trade for Con- ference High Scorer. Captain-elect Dick Zmud- zien and Dave McSavaney also gave a good ac- count of themselves in the scoring department. Dick Tracy and Tom Jolley steadied the team down with their great defensive play. Prospects for 1950 look very good with the return of six lettermen and the great showing of the Iayvees late in the season. The following were awarded letters. Bushey, Coghlan, Cunningham, Hine.

l HOCKEY SQUAD DORCHESTER 4-BOSTON TRADE 0 The Dunbarites romped to a 4 - 0 shutout over Trade as Harvey Coldstein won the high-scoring honors with 3 goals, assists being rendered by Bob Stuart, Bill Cahill, and Danny O,Toole. The final Dorchester goal came when Paul Degnan streaked a beautiful pass to Bock Leonard who lit the light to close the fray. BOSTON LATIN 2 - DORCHESTER 0 The Lads from Dunbar were far from being outclassed as they battled it out with the Scarlet and YVhite from Public Latin School.

Fine hockey from the Dorchester angle was played by Danny OlToole, Bock Leonard, Mal MacLeod, Harvey Coldstein. Bill Cahill, and manv others. DOHCHESTEH I -COMMERCE I Harvey Goldstein of the Red and Black sextet scored in 22 seconds of the third period to break the ice between the contestants.
