M. F. H. S. PILOT 23 H 1 Hl'f.TiC BOYS' ATHLETICS Although the results of most of the inter- scholastic activities were somewhat against the Mechanic Falls boys, they by no means tell the whole story. None of the victories of the opposing teams was easily gained, because the fine teamwork and sportsmanship exhib- ited by participants made each contest close. Sports officially got under way on Septem- ber 27 when the football team traveled to Winthrop and the Cross Country squad ran at Lisbon Falls. Both teams, however, suf- fered defeats. The football squad, ably directed by Coach Coach Morrison's first call for basketball, on November 18, was answered by 25 pros- pective players. During the first of the sea- son their victories weren't very numerous, but in the latter part they defeated Casco. Especially in the tournament they did very well, ending a close second to Livermore Falls in the Final game. During the year the squad was slightly handicapped by loss of players due to injuries, or sickness. The squad was composed of: C. Quinn, H. Allard, D. DeBiase, R. Goss, C. Iordan, M. Purington, R. Iordan, I. Quinn, R. Klain, I. Trinward, and R. Kyllonen, R.

F. H. S. harriers were less successful than last year. Under the diligent management of Coach Edwards they placed well in the State meet held at Bates College. The team was as follows: W. Greenwood. E. Bradford, W. French, I. Trinward, W. Bradford, L. Iordan, R. Thayer, I. Palardis, L. Fitts, and F. Whittier. With the coming of Spring, baseball will get under way once more. As the team did not lose many members by graduation, the prospects for a winning team are good this year. A great deal of credit is due to Coach Morrison, Mr. Diehl, and Mr. Edwards for the work and interest displayed in our ath- letics and we wish to thank them for their unfailing assistance.
