BOYS’ SPORTS By RAY YAUK Whenever year books are written, the sports section most frequently com¬ mences something like this: . . During the past year the athletes of our school have had a very successful season . . Unfortunately, however, in the case of Isaac Newton High School this is not wholly true. One has only to visit the Newton mantel for the answer. The silverware that is so often present is not to be seen. Mr.Avery’s Grade 10 and 11 soccer kids were the only “Red and Black” representatives to cop city high school honors. RUGBY Before Johnny “Butch” Petersen opened the turnstiles to the throng of cheering high school football fans, local sport scribes had our boys picked to finish no less than second in the five- team circuit. However, when the cur¬ tain was rung down to conclude the 1948 grid season, statistics revealed that the “red and black” horde failed to chalk up a single victory, and were only able to tally four points against their opponents. Genial Mr. Armstrong capably man¬ aged the squad, while Kip McFadyen and Moe Simovitch took charge of the coaching duties, with Gene “Porky” Charbonneau assisting. Throughout the entire season Bill Senyk, Basil Furgala, Joe Sawchuk, Frank Cielen, Stan Kali- nowski, Dave Yacheson and little Bob Daski turned in starry chores in all their outings. Hats off to Joe Sawchuk, who was the unanimous choice as all-star guard on the city’s three newspapers, and to rugged Bill Senyk, who garnered a berth on the Citizen “dream” squad. Also, bouquets to the coaches, man¬ agers, members of the team, and last, but by no means least, the cheer-leaders and waterboys—they all worked tire¬ lessly throughout the entire campaign. The prospects for the ’49 grid season appear much brighter, since most of the previous squad was composed of num¬ erous “rookies” who have now gained a great deal of valuable experience. Following is a brief summary of the four grid clashes staged: St. John’s .... 5 Newton .... 0 Over-confidence played a prominent role in the Newton defeat. However, Bill Senyk, Basil Furgala, Joe Sawchuk and Captain Frank Cielen did yeoman service for the “red and black.” Kelvin. 15 Newton . 4 With Bob Daski playing brilliantly, the Newton horde staged their best performance of the campaign against big Chuck Lumsden and his fellow Kelvinites. Booting a terrific field goal and one single, Daski garnered all his club’s points for not only the Kelvin tussle, but also for the entire grid season. Along with Daski, Paul Wer- bowski, Bill Senyk, Stan Kalinowski, Mike Sawka, Lloyd Rigby and Joe Pawlik worked hard throughout.

The only bright light shining in the “red and black” line was the brilliant defensive display put on by Dave Yacheson.
