The sticks were raised mid shouts of enthusiasm, and the team ran out onto the field. The long laps of running, the incessant dribbling, driving, and attacking practice, and the uncounted black and blue boo-boos were all forgotten as thoughts turned to the hard white ball being batted back and forth between two deter- mined forces. Twenty minutes later the half was over, and the girls stood around sucking oranges and talking over the game. The opposition was strong this year, but the Maroon and White pucksters man- aged to come out on the plus side of the record with four wins and three losses. Defeat came at the hands of strong teams from Lebanon and Claremont. Despite the loss of four first string Seniors, the 1954 season should be promising with a large group of underclassmen returning.

With the good seasons come the off seasons, when everything seems to go wrong. With the victories come defeats. Every team is faced with ups and downs. Last fall was one of those seasons for the H.H.S. football team, when all the breaks were bad onesg success just cannot be bought. Everything seemed to backfire: first, five first-stringers were lost by graduation, then four more regulars before the season even started due to injuries and otherwise, and an overwhelmingly tough schedule at the beginning of the campaign. However, everything wasn't gloom. It was a game and spirited team that had its proud moments: the rousing win over Plymouth, a moral victory over Berlin, and the fine play of many individuals. Even though the boys didnit win many ball games, they deserved credit and praise for the tough task they tackled. On certain occasions if only a little luck had been with them, the tables might have been turned, like the Littleton game when freshman Johnny Robes ran seventy-five yards only to be stopped on the two-yard line. With Captain Chip Wright leading the team and Ken Mayette in on nearly every tackle, the team fought hard, but it was just one of those seasons.
