STUDENT COUNCIL The Hamden Hall Student Council reached new heights this year under the able direction of Mrs. Tuttle, the faculty adviser, and Evelyn Rademacher, the president. Reorganized two years ago on the basis of providing for the students a knowledge of the Hamden Hall regulations and inspiring in them the proper school spirit, the council has now branched out and taken the social life of the student body into consideration. Many interesting activities were sponsored successfully, ranging from bowling parties, swimming parties, and roller-skating parties to a trip taken in the spring to a United Nations Meeting at Lake Success, New York. The Council was also kept busy making preparations for the presentation of a modern comedy, and collecting clothes for a Care drive. At the students' request the Council has sponsored a program in the dining-room whereby a different grace is said each day by one of the students. The student body is proud of the many achievements of their representatives this year, and rejoices with them at the final seal of approval-their acceptance into the National Association of Student Councils. zbirzy-eight

The first score was pushed across with just two minutes gone in the first quarter as Glen Furbish swept right end from twenty yards out. Although the Milford team had some good interference on their plays, they could not stop the hard-charging Hamden Hall line of jim Cave, Pete Fiskio, and Alan Wright. At the half the players from Hamden Hall had piled up a score of 31 points to Milford's 0. During the second half, the reserves playing most of the time, Milford could not stop these yet-to-be-denied Hamden Hallers. In the second half Hamden Hall went on to score another 31 points paced by Ray Blakeslee, hard-charging back, and jim McKinster, an able back. At the end of the game the weary Milford team found itself on the short end of a 72 to 0 score. High scorers were Ray Blakeslee with 4 touchdowns, Glen Furbish with 3, and Pete Fiskio with 2. At Guilford, on October I3, the varsity football team took in its stride the powerful, well-drilled, blue and white of Guilford. After a fairly hard-fought first quarter, Ray Blalceslee swept left end from forty yards out to make the score 6 to 0. In the second quar- ter Pete Fiskio scored on a pass from Glen Furbish, giving the green and gold a I2 to 0 lead. The second half was fought mostly on even terms with the exception of a pass from Ray Blakeslee to jim Cave for the third and final Hamden Hall touchdown. Legion Field in Mount Carmel, on October 22, was the scene of the third victory for the green and gold of Hamden Hall against an inexperienced Chester High six.
