JUNE 1935 27 r ,,,., TRACK Timm' ii Red and White track season opened with a defeat suffered at the hands of Johnstown. Gloversville took more first places than Johnstown but the boys from ftown kept taking the second and third places and these all added up to as much as C-loversville's. The relay race was won by Johnstown- that decided the winner of the meet. Jimmy Gisondi, star of the Gloversville team, captured four first places to lead in individual scoring. The following week, minus the services of Grant and Eute- mark, the local boys captured first place in the meet held at Gloversville. Gloversville, Schuylerville, Warrensburg and Granville participated. Granville captured second place.

'QW ' .1 gf :riff-' Aff, -7-'tg 'lf J . 4+ brig ' E 1 JW , CL. ,J ' in WHEN WE MUST CARRY ON It was April, and Mr. Dwight Carter was thinking of moving out to his summer home. Every April, when the snow had disappeared and the leaves began to appear on the trees in Central Park, Mr. Carter would close up his Fifth Avenue apartment and go out on Long Island to the big, ramshackle Carter Mansion. The Mansion was very much in need of repair. The roof leaked, the porch sagged, and the paint was 29 peeling off, but Mr. Carter didn't have the money to fix the place up, and as he wouldn't think of parting with it, the Mansion continued to become more dilapitated with each pass- ing of a year. So now it was April. The apartment was closed and Mr. Carter drove out with Ling San, his Japanese man. They took some food, and their clothes, and reached the Mansion around noon. Mr. Carter sighed inaudibly as the car went slowly up the drive. The spacious lawns were badly in need of trimming, and the porch was sagging frightfully. He would have to try and fix it up before Merideth came. Leave the car here, Ling, Carter directed, as the car came to a stop. Yles, sir, answered,Ling San, and jumped out' swiftly, to open the door for Mr. Carter. Dwight Carter stood there a moment, thinking of the past, and the happy days when he had brought Merideth here, as his bride. That was twenty-three years ago this June. Carter turned to get the bags out of the car, trying to blot out the memory of those,care-free days, when the Carter Mansion was one of the most beautiful on Long Island, and when his young wife had danced through the gardens, on winged feet. But it was hard to forget. Each year when he first came out, Carter had those illusions spring up magically before his eyes, to disseminate his thoughts. Ling San was opening the door into the dim hall when Carter went up the steps, bags in hand. Klinda dlark, Mlister Carter, remarked Ling. He hastened to pull up the shades in the front rooms. The sun- light made it at once more livable, and soon, when all the windows were up, the house was comfortably warm, because it was a very warm day for April. . The first thing to do was to get something to eat. They couldn't work on empty stomachs, and there was plenty of work to do. ..:f- -- v ORCHESTRA
