Football Most Massachusetts coaches feel that the Bay State League is the most improved and best bal- anced league in the state. To finish second with a seven and two record is quite an accomplishment for a team whose record two years ago was zero and nine. A look at the record shows how close they came to an undefeated season. Two-touch- down losses to undefeated VVellesley and powerful Framingham marred their otherwise perfect record. There was a diiferent hero, it seemed, each game. Lineman Jack Oliva and Bill Farrington, and quarterback Johnny Morris were elected to the All-South Shore team, honors richly deserved. Morris and Farrington were co-winners of the Owen B. Kiernan award for their part in the 30-0 mauling of Braintree on Thanksgiving Day. Sometimes completely overlooked- usually be- cause it has no Seniors -is the Junior Varsity squad. This year we feel it should receive recognition for a job well done. Enjoying little of the limelight of their Varsity counterparts, these ready, willing, and able youngsters are the main reason why Mil- ton High School's record for 1961 reads seven wins in nine games. To the coaches, the players, the bench warmers, the managers, the students who cheered so loud and long, to all who contributed in any way to this great season-may we say, Well done! J. V.
