Of the twenty boys pres- ent for practice, all were kept on the squad except three. Iohn Callahan was chosen manager and Bruce Ingalls assis- ant manager. Our first game was played at South- west Harbor with Pemetic High on De- cember 2nd. Pemetic clicked well on their home floor and the Bulldogs were sound- ly trounced 62 to 39. The scoring for Machias was evenly divided among the first five. Then on December 6th, M.H.S. played host to the Ionesport Five. The Bulldogs. starting with a bang, led at the quarter 15 to 5 and went on to defeat Ionesport 60 to 38. Woodman, Bridgham, and Vane held down the scoring honors for Machias with sixteen, fifteen, and fifteen points respectively. On December 12th, M.H.S. invaded Eastport to play the Shead team. It was a hotly contested game with Shead taking an early lead over M.H.S., who fought hard and tied the count at the final gun 47-47. Then in the three minute overtime, Shead scored two floor shots to Bulldog's one and took the game 51 to 49. Vane and Moore held down the scoring honors with 13 and 18 points respectively. On December 15th, Lubec traveled to Machias with a strong team which was beaten 68 to 52. It was a close game at the start, but Machias pulled away during the second half.

December 16th, Pemetic High School traveled to Machias to play the Bulldogs for the second time. The Bulldogs started slowly, being on the short end of a 14 to 7 score at the end of the first quarter.
