On Wednesday, October 30, we journeyed to Weston for a return game, determined that tliis game would not end in a tie. With the absence of Lois”, the all-famous Weston half back, we had nothing to fear. During the first half it looked like a scoreless game, but in the second half the girls really began to play, and Helen Arcisz scored the first and only goal of the game. The seconds also scored in the last half with a goal made by Jane Dockerty. Fourth Game Maynard at Acton November 6, 19i6 L’irst team Maynard 2 Acton 0 Second team Maynard 2 Acton 0 As a result of our warlike practices we were without a first team goal keeper for this game. After switching this girl and that, and calling in one of the ever faithful subs, we finally had two full teams. After some hard fighting the first team scored in the second half. The goals were made by Helen Arcisz and Teresa White. The .second team also came out on top in this game with two goals made by Josie Cutaia and Jane Dockerty. Fifth Game Concord at Maynard November 13, 19-16 First team Maynard 0 Concord 1 Second team Maynard 1 (ioncord 0 It was a cold, clear day and ever) one was ready for this the most important game of the season. Never did the girls play with more spirit or gusto. It was a fast, furious game w ' hich was enough to tire .anyone, but the girls stayed right with their opponents. Concord’s goal in the first half was the only goal of the game — a heartbreaker ! This was the only game in which the first team was defeated. Our hopes for a victory next year are bolstered by the second team’s win over the Concord seconds. Janj- D()(.k,i:kty, ’4« H: H: REVENGE Wednesday, the thirteen of November, Is a day we seniors will always remember. For then we fought Concord’s hockey team That battered and shattered our every dream. If we had won that memorable game. We would have been showered with undying fame; We would have had honor, we would have had praise. We could have shunned Concord for the rest of our days. For us seniors that w ' as our last game forever. But those who step into our places must never F ' orget our defeat, but constantly try To bring victory over Concord for Maynard High.

The Owl Speaks Down in the depths, beside the wall Where the moon shone brightly in the fall. Amid the darkness where no one could spy. There we were, the Wise Old Owl and I. Softy, ever so softly, it was he Who told these rhymes to no one but me. So for anything strange appearing here. Don’t blame me — I’m in the clear. First he told me of all the romances; Next he gave me the dope on the dances. Later he talked on topics of all sort. But it’s just the gossip that I’ll report. It’s plain to see that Johnny T. Is oh, so fond of Barbara G. Evelyn and Jerry are still a team. Mention his name and watch her beam. Be it Walter or be it Paul, Gloria Novick charms ’em all. Carlo sees Red” when she looks at another; Does he like Bernice? You tell me, brother! Many’s the time that I repeat, Isn’t it swell? . . Joan still likes Pete.” Ru.sso and Luker are quite a team — Not in football, ’tis otherwise I mean.
