HOL- BROOK Howard High beat Sumner by a narrow margin. The score was 6-5. The condition of the diamond was very poor and interfered considerable with the playing of the Holbrook boys, the pitcher’s box being some inches below level. Sumner played in rather bad luck, two of her play- ers, Hadfield and Hayden, being in- jured in former games, which neces- sitated a change in position, result- ing in throwing its team out of gear. Even so victory was in sight for Sum- ner when E. Hill was hit by a pitched ball and incapacitated for further playing and two errors made by him while in a groggy condition allowed two runs to come in. For a while Holbrook was on its feet in the 5th. when with three on Hiltz lined a fast one past third and only Dwyer delay- ing his dash for home prevented a winning score.

Hill was in fine form, striking out 12 and passing 1. Hadfield resumed his po- sition as catcher, his finger having healed up. The feature of the game was Hadfield’s home run, a beautiful line drive. Keep it up “Bunny” and you will make the A. A. Thayer put up a fight all through the game. The Holbrook team worked well on the field, making only two errors, the best so far this year. The game showed up Holbrook as a hard hit- ting team, getting 14 hits to Thayer’s 4.

AVON Holbrook met and defeated Avon HOLBROOK AT SCITUATE The third game of the season was won by Holbrook when it met and de- feated Scituate to the tune of 27 to 5. It was a losely played game by both sides, especially Scituate. Scituate had a very poor team and their twirlers were hit terribly by Holbrook men. Hill pitched a good game but received little support, Holbrook making 8 errors. There was one home run by Hadfield and 3 three-baggers. Holbrook made 27 safe hits and Scituate 12. The Hol- brook team is coming along well with the sticks. We can count on the next Scituate game as won unless they improve very much. at a close game, the score 9-5. Avon shewed up well at the first of the game. Hammond started in the box for Holbrook. Holbrook could not seem to go smooth with him in the box. He was yanked and R. Hill put in. Then the team settled down to its regular stride. Wonderful effect those Hill brothers have on the team. Holbrook hit the deliveries of the Avon pitcher for 14 safe hits. E. Hill was the heavy man with the stic k for Holbrook. Osgood for Avon. Avon played good in the field, only making two errors, but at the stick they were weak, only getting 5 hits. Holbrook came along strong. This makes the last game with Avon as Holbrook has won both games.

It is probable that the batting averages wdll be maintained in relatively the same position. Dwyer, however, may rise to second or third place, as he has an uncanny knack of hitting dif- ficult pitchers, although he does no spectacular batting. E. Hill . Hadfield . R. Hill . . Dwyer . .

However, it is probable that Holbrook will defeat Avon if we are to judge from the last meet. All the Holbrook stars stand ready to equal or better their previous records. Long, Kearns, Hammond, and Hill are the most prominent men. In the high jump Long and Kearns stand first with a practice record of about 4 feet 6-7 inches. Long stands to take Holbrook’s entrance in the broad jump. He has hopped 17 feet. Pole vault also goes to Long at around 8 feet 9 inches. Hammond is premier man in the shot put with 35 feet his longest throw. Hill and Long stand out in the discus at 80 feet. Practically all the dashes either go to Kearns or Long with Hill a close second. Hayward, Nylands, Briel, and Hiltz, are the expected en- trants for the Freshman relay and Kearns, Long, Hill for the first three positions on the school relay, a new event, the fourth place being con- tested between Roberts, West and Hammond. Up to May 29 the team had an average of .666 on the games, an average incomparably higher than recent years and only equalled by Chet Beals and his team — if we can keep it up. As for the remaining games, we are practically certain of the coming Scituate games and have a very favorable chance with the re- maining. The Cohasset game will conclude one of the most successful seasons Sumner has ever played. Physical Culture Class On our return to school after the Christmas vacation, a physical cul- ture class was organized by Mr. Neal, our athletic instructor. Twenty minutes a day were devoted to this exercise. There was much grumbling at first, because the girls developed lame backs, arms, and legs ; after two or three weeks this feeling wore away and they began to see the sunny side of these exercises. They realized that these exercises were for their own good. Mr. Neal had ten assistants, Paul Long, Ed. Hill, W.
