TIPPLE CCoachD BURWELL NICBEE BRERETON BALLOU CORP NIACLEOD CROSS CCapt. and Mgrj WATERMAN OTIS CLARK COOP LOWE Track The Track Team for 1911 has been the most successful one in six years. It began with a cross-country run at Roger Williams Park held in November, 1910, in which the Hope team took second place. At the Armory Track meet in February we carried off second honors, easily. A relay team of four men, and two other men Went up to Boston to the B. A. A. Meet,-and came back again. At the Y. M. C. A. meet we tied Techni- cal for first place. We won the dual meet with Moses Brown and also won the triangular meet with English and Classical. At Kingston, the team had rather a hard time in get- ting third place. The Interscholastic Track Meet for the Championship, however, we won, making the third pennant for the year of 1911. Many times it looked as if Tech- nical was going to beat us, but the excellent work of Capt. Cross in the Hurdles, High Jump and Pole Vault, along with the record-breaking throw made by MacLeod in the Hammer and by Burwell in the Discus pulled us through so that we won, by only a very small margin. 13

George School in an eleven-inning game by a score of 7-6. East Providence and Woon- socket were easily disposed of and then came our next important game with Pawtucket. Aided by MacLeod's masterly pitching we defeated our ancient rivals by a score of 2-0. The season was now half over but we were soon to fall. Technical, Cranstonf and La Salle were defeated and then we gave East Providence a terrible coat of whitewash, scoring 14 runs to their O. Flattered by our great showing we went to Pawtucket and, in a game in which the umpire was the star attraction, we were defeated by a score of 741. This defeat necessitated a play-off of the tie which now existed between Hope and Pawtucket. Melrose Park was chosen as the battle-ground. On the day of the game over 2,500 people gathered to witness the game. The brilliant pitching of Mac- Leod won a 7-1 victory for us and the pennant is now hung near the clock in the hall. The three leading men in fielding were: Carroll Ccaptj, Waterman, and Brice. In batting: Wate1'1nan, Gerber, and Parson.
