lees. --.- Lol D. H,.9. RECORD Delaware City Newark Sudlersville Middletown Chestertown Chestertown Betty Jane Hurd, left inner, clashed sticks with the left halfback of Chestertown, while Claire Melton (13) left wing, waited for the ball to come her way. In the background two Chestertown players were racing to aid their team-mate. The game resulted in a Dover win. During halftime of the Newark game, the varsity waited for their energy-giving oranges and Mrs. Watson’s comments on the first half. Nancy Whiting (8), Claire Melton (13), Maggie Behen, Margaret Roper, and Mrs. Watson watched the J.V. take the field for the first half. Margaret Anne Behen (blurred) tried desperately to get the ball from Newark’s left halfback, while Nancy Whiting, right wing, and Rosemary Hagey, right halfback, backed her up. The first half was played in pouring rain, which drenched both teams, ending in a loss for Dover

Traveling to Sudlersville for the next game, Dover was beaten in a hard-fought game. In a close game with Newark, Dover again went down in defeat. Then the Senators downed Middletown to even the record. In the Chestertown game Dover posted another win and then again over Chestertown on their home field. Although the young and inexperienced junior varsity lost to Newark 2-1 and Middletown 2-0, they were full of fight and zeal.
