wiv has been unmatched in this community for many a year. The first three games, Shrewsbury, Methuen, and Maynard, were rather easy for Hudson. They were to meet their first real test in Class B Gardner High. After a brilliant game, which saw the Night Hawks stave off a mad and furious Gardner Wildcat for eight straight plays inside its own ten yard line, ther was much speculation that Hudson would beat Con- cord on the following Saturday. During the week the papers were filled with the subject of Hudson's beating Concord. Saturday Oc- tober 18, 1952 saw three thousand Hudsonians in a crowd of six thousand, observe the Night Hawk tear the Minute Man asunder 21-7, snapping Concord's fifty-nine game winning streak. Milford fell before the Crimson, and then came Clinton. Clinton held a fifteen year victory record over Hudson, the Jinx. That Friday night the jinx went up in smoke to the tune of 19-O. johnson High and St. Bernard's games were warm-ups for Turkey Day, as Hudson won handily, Thanksgiving Day dawned bright and sunny, but fell dark and gloomy for Marlboro who had high hopes of beating Hudson. The final score was 55-13. The last barrier was downg the Record-Breakers were Midland League Champions and had their first un- defeated team in twenty-six years. The success of the 1953 football season was due both to the splendid coaching of Mr. Bondelevitch and Mr. Colombo, and to the unusual spirit of the entire squad. -.gi 91' 'fwxagj , '19 ova' 'B' Y I .J -it 'Ty gi S.
