BASEBALL The 1942 Hamden Hall baseball team, coached by Thomas Tileston, in the field, hopes to follow up their successful soccer and basketball seasons by clinching the League Cup. Although the Spring practice was delayed this year, Captain Pete Wastrom will lead the team in an excellent schedule with Cheshire, Milford, Center and Redding Ridge. The second team was coached by Mr. Todd, of Arnold College. V JUNIOR FOOTBALL The Junior Football Team, coached again this year by Mr. Thomas Tileston, had a very successful season, winning the Connecticut Private School Athletic League Football Cup with Larry Munson as Captain of the A squad. The first league game was played at Unquowa, with a score of 20-20. On November 7, at Fairfield, a score of 24-13 was rolled up in our favor. Eighteen points were scored by Donald Fouser, star of the day. The next week, Center was beaten 38-25 with Howard the star of the day. The final game, played at Daycroft, was tied 6-6.

BOYS SPORTS I Soccian The progress of this year's soccer squad, co-captained by Frank Reynolds and Charles Berlepsch, managed by Peter Wastrom, and under the competent guidance of Leo Tuchinsky of Arnold College, was very encouraging. The team competed against such worthy opponents as Choate, Hopkins, Cheshire, Taft and Redding Ridge. The team was the best in the history of Hamden Hall, succumbing only to the pow- erful teams of Hopkins and Taft. The team showed excellent examples of teamwork and sportsmanship. Next year's squad will sorely miss the brilliant teamplay of Frank Rey- nolds and the strong defense of jack Rasch and Henry Hastings. Our hopes of a successful season next year are upheld by such experienced upper classmen as: C. Berlepsch, B. Duffy, F. Colburn, G. Fouser, D. Miller, B. Neumann, L. Rashmir, V. Anderson and H. Lackman. With such support soccer should take a great step in becoming a very successful sport at Hamden Hall. BASKETBALL The Hamden Hall Senior basketball team, coached by Mr. Thomas N. Tileston, had a most successful season. Led by Captain Frank Reynolds, the team won the Connecticut Private School League Cup, scoring a total of 175 points. Games were played with Day- croft, Milford and Community Center. The members of the team were: Captain Reynolds. H. Lackman, V. Anderson, I.. Munson, L. Rashmir, J. Buendia, D. Steffen, R. Howard and S. Twitchell. Page Twenty

GIRLS SPORTS GIRLS HOCKEY TEAM Last Fall everyone took part in the hockey practice with the result that we had a fairly successful season of play. The Varsity Team lost to Prospect Hill twice, 1-6 and 3-53 lost to Mrs. Day's 0-5, but defeated Daycroft 1-0, and Hamden High 2-l. The lineup was as follows: Steffen, captain, CF, May, RI, Miller, RW, Bushell, LI, Judd, LWg Lar- son, CI-Ig DeWolf, RH, Kelly, LH, Behre, RF, Thalheimer, manager, LF, Teasdale and Mack, G. Much of our success was due to the coaching of Mrs. McNeil and Miss Hoyt and Miss Wilbur from Arnold College. The girls of the fifth through seventh grades, under the direction of Mrs. McNeil and Miss Hoyt, played soccer in the Fall. The eighth grade played one hockey game with the Foote School team, holding the score to a 2-2 tie. In the winter the girls skated at Davis Pond and went sliding on the school grounds. Baseball is their spring sport, with a probable game with the Foote School in the near future. At this early hour there is no dehnite baseball news, unless we count the new bats supplementing the Georgia Peach. However, the initial enthusiasm of a new season and the coaching of Mrs. McNeil and Miss Eldridge, of Arnold College, leads us to hope for the best. Martha May has been elected captain, and Carolyn Bushell, manager. GIRLS BASEBALL TEAM Page Twenty-Two
