ICE HOCKEY Over the years Hanover High's ice hockey program has been on a shaky basis, due mainly to the lack of ice. This year for the first time ice was available in Dart- mouth's new artificial ice plant, and H.H.S. was able to use the rink for seven of its games and occasional practices. This year's hockey team, lacking the experience and depth of many of its oppon- ents. but showing spirit and good material, found it rough going over a nine-game schedule that netted only three wins. Captained by Dave Duclos, the team did well, considering their lack of practice, and on occasion they played excellent hockey. lce hockey is a sport that should rise to new heights as the ice program develops, and it should take its place in H.H.S. as a major athletic attraction.

Taking the State Meet by copping seven firsts and winning eighteen medals was but a fitting climax to an exciting and extremely successful season for a terrific team. Paced by their big triple threat Q15 pointer Gordon Willey who was continually breaking one record after anotheri, the team fared well against practi- cally all competitiong they were undefeated in dual meet competition and won the Twin State Valley Meet for the third year in succession. It was a very well-balanced team with high morale: strong in the Weights with Willey and Frankie Hayes, a good all-around running team led by George Rogers in the dashes, middle distances and the mile, and strong also in the pole vault, high jump, and broad jump. With Mr. Hefferman as head coach the team also received some fine coaching from two Dartmouth football startsg Dick Collins with the runners and John Springer for the field event men.

It applied to the coaches, a scoreboard, an afternoon schedule, and the team itself. Miss Barry, assisted by student teachers Miss Flanagan and Miss Temperly, worked hard to build a comparatively inexperienced team into a smooth unit of hoopsters. Afternoon games for the great part of the season enabled the coaches to keep a larger squad and form a J.V. team. The record of the losing column, was heavy, but the three wins over Hartford. West Lebanon, and Woodstock were big ones. At a home game with Woodstock on February 2, the guards successfully froze the ball for a minute and a half to insure a close victory of 30-29, and Captain Patty Hoag was carried off the floor on the shoulders of her teammates. The tradition of throwing the coach into the shower failed when Miss Barry escaped up the other stairs.
