THEY RACE AGAINST TIME. CROSS COU NTRY Another successful year for the Cross Coun- try Team under the guidance of coach Harold Spealler is indicative of the amazing growth of this team at Harriton. This was the Harriers' most successful year with a record of 8 wins and 2 losses, and this year's initial turnout of 32 boys showed the rise of this sport's status at Harriton. This was a year for the exceptional. Captain Ken McClosky, previously undefeated in two years of duel competition, was sidelined by sickness. ln spite of this, he placed first in three of the four meets in which he ran. Bart Frame, while participating in varsity soccer, managed to run in three meets, placing second each time. Five boys - Bruant, Clark, Howard, Reynolds, and Thornber, ran lOO miles over and above daily practice qualifying them for the lOO Mile Club. Captain-elect John Howard and Coach Spealler anticipate an excellent season next year. Of this year's varsity runners, five will be returning. They will be backed by this year's Junior Varsity, whose fine quality is shown by its undefeated record. Cross Country is rapidly Mr. H. Spealler, Coach, K.

Since Hallowell and Uphouse will return next season along with Moneta, Block, and Dubin, Coach Stanley Westover anticipates another good year for l963.

FOOTBALL The 1961 Football team finally ended a losing streak that lasted alnrost three years. October 27 was the day that hundreds of Harritonites saw the Rams down Cheltenham hy a score of six to zero. ln spite of this great boost to morale, the Harriton team was not able to claim any more victories during the year. Nevertheless, the victory of October 27 seems to be a good sign for better sea- sons in the future. The team was led by Captains Steve Butler, Dick Harrington, and Pete Stevens. Dick Harrington received the Sportsmanship Trophy The Most Valuable Player award went to Pete Stevens, who was also selected for the Main Line Scholastic All-Star Foot- ball Team. The squad started practice during the hot summer days of Au- gust. Fighting hard and showing excellent spirit, the boys exhib- ited the typical Harriton will-to-win throughout all ot their games. With this spirit and fight, 1962 promises to be very successful. VARSITY SCORES Harriton Opponents 7 .. .. Conestoga .. 34 O.. ..Radnor .... ...39 O . . .. Springfield ....... ... 21 O .. ..
