THE HUTTLESTONI AN 21 Nathaniel Guy—basketball star forward, tennis (Junior Champion), baseball pitcher. Henry McGowan—center on the basketball team, star pole vaulter and high jumper. Edmund Freitas—halfback on the football team, third baseman on the baseball team. Otto Blaha—Bristol County Football Team, track. Very little is said about the managers of our various teams; they are the unsung heroes of sport. Few of us realize their duties and responsibilities. They have charge of the equipment, and the transportation and condition of such depends greatly upon them. So, in order to partly compensate them for their labors, we think it fitting to dedicate this column to the managers of our various activities and may they profit by the realization that we, at least, think of them! Harold W. Woodcock, ’37. GIRLS’ ATHLETICS Basketball After a successful hockey season, the girls of the Fair- haven High School formed their regular basketball teams. Al¬ though there have always been girls’ basketball teams, these teams are different from those of other years. In the past only a varsity team and class teams were formed. Now, however, every girl who wishes is allowed to join a team. This plan seems to be working out very successfully. Bowling Something new and different has been started by the girls’ gym instructor, Miss Anna E. Simmons, — a bowling team. The girls who have joined this team meet every Wednesday

20 THE HUTTLESTONIAN BOYS 5 ATHLETICS Football is undoubtedly the most important sport at Fair- haven High School. We have always been proud, and justly so, of our football teams. We have cause for honorable pride, too, in the team that showed such cooperative spirit, and such fine playing ability during the past season under the able leadership of Joseph Gomes, Captain. The following is the record achieved by that team: Fairhaven 42 Fairhaven 13 Fairhaven 21 Fairhaven 7 Fairhaven 6 Fairhaven 0 Fairhaven 26 Fairhaven 13 Fairhaven 2 Fairhaven 26 Colt Memorial 0 Coyle 0 Dartmouth 0 Durfee 6 Bridgewater 0 Whitman 13 Burrilville 6 Attleboro 0 New Bedford 6 Kingston 0 The student body should also be complimented for its fine support of its teams and for its excellent conduct at the games. In almost every school there is one student, at least, who distinguishes himself extraordinarily in athletics. Fairhaven has more than its share of these, but like other schools it has one student who, because of his versatility in all of the major sports, and marked ability in each, deserves a spot a little above the others. We salute you, Frank Perry, Bristol County Football Team, Captain of the basketball team, miler on the track team, and member of the baseball team. Commendation on their prowess should be given, in addition, to: Alfred Wylodyka—Bristol County Football Team, Cap¬ tain of the track team, co-captain of the gym team.
