Lost through graduation from last yearis team were Russ Philbrick, Ed Trentini, and Dick Morell. Arthur Comolli, though a veteran senior this year, was unable to play due to a skin infection. The boys did not have as successful a season as last year, nevertheless they made a good record. They won twelve games and lost eight during the season. They missed qualifying for the State Tournament by one game. At the Townsend Tournament they won their first game but were eliminated in the second by the ultimate champions. They finished second in the Mon- adnock League. They will lose three regulars through graduation: center, Dick Brown, forward, Ralph Stinson, and guard, Dennis Comolli from this yearis team. Prospects are bright, however, for next year with two-year veteran Tom Forsyth, plus regulars Bob Fraser, Bones Germino, and Ioe Villane. The second team and Jayvees will give valuable help.
