Hamden Hall Varsity football was distinguished this year by the brevity of its season. Under the coaching of Mr. Flory, the team was led by Captain Fred Earle, while Bob Bamberg was high-scorer in the games played. Beginning in the first scrimmages, a record-breaking list of injuries rapidly decreased the number of eligible players and terminated the team's short career.

The weekend of Febrmzry 8th was one of greasepaint and colorful costumes flavored by a touch of Shakespeare. Under the ex- pert and inspiring direction of Mrs. Dentan a truly superior performance of A Midsum- mer Nights Dream was given. The next weekend, February 14th, took on a festive air as everyone turned out for the junior Prom. March brought spring vacation, first pre- senting us with Co-ops. The night before vacation the juniors gave an informal party. April found the Seniors rushing about emitting loud groans.

It is with a sigh of regret that we Seniors bid goodbye to Hamden Hall, where we have spent so many happy days.

This year the junior basketball team was under the direction of Mr. Delano. The first game caught the Hamden Hall team unawares due to only a week of prac- tice. Bridgeport came through with a score of 23 to Hamden Hall's 18. The second game showed the results of strenuous practice, and through fast playing and teamwork we scored a victory over Trinity Parish-I9 to 14. Four more games on the schedule resulted in four more losses. Though unsuccessful in these attempts, the team was noteworthy for its sportsmanship and teamwork.
