HE success of the school monthly, The Coyle Review, during its second year of labor- ed existence is due, in the main, to a handful of students whose indomitable will, and unflagging zeal made any journalistic work possible. True, there was a wealth of material in every department, capable writers, competent reporters, and expert Cartoonists, despite these assets, difficulties presented themselves throughout. Of these, the actual as- sembling and printing were the chief problems facedg the meager number of proficient typists caused the burden to fall on a very small group. It is to these latter that the credit for the school's'publication must go. Bernard Fitzpatrick, joe McAloon, and Ned Donnelly turned in representative work as reporters and columnists. As a news hawk, Jack O'Neill managed to keep tab on local hap- penings. Buzz Toner, Quinlan Regan, and Jim Conway drew the cartoons, original as well as piquant.

Oofgalf OYLES second football team, while not equalling the record of their predecessors, turned in a fine perfor- mance for the season. Although several first string- ers were lost by graduation Coach Burns found many prom- ising candidates to take their places. Practice got under way the day before school opened. Many vigorous set-up ex- ercises and long drills helped the Coach to whip a varsity squad into shape. THE SEASON : October 6. CASEgTwo famous traditions were effectively upheld as the Warriors clashed with the men from Swansea: Coyle came off victorious, with its goal line still uncrossed: and a terrific rain storm, a deference paid to week-end sporting events in and about Taunton. Anyway, through the mud and mire, the sons of Coyle fought to decisively whip their valiant opponents, 27-0. Daley scored the first six points, with Lynch convertingg later on Lynch crashed through for another touchdown, again successfully converting. ln the last quarter, Bird snatched two dripping passes from the murky air, running over the goal with both of them: after the last, Toner took a short pass to add the extra point. Though the day was anything but congenial, Coyle began auspiciously its I934 campaign. October IZ. ST. lVlARY'S OF WALTHAM-Although their record for an unblemished goal was broken the Warriors chalked up their sixth straight victory at Woodley Field when they nosed out St. lVlary's of Waltham, 7-6. The battle was hard fought with both teams about evenly matched. Coyle had the edge in first downs, hammering out five to the visitors three. Coyle's score came early in the third period when Dooley snared Toner's pass and raced 32 yards for a touchdown. Toner kicked the extra point from placement. ln the fourth period Flynn, right end for Waltham blocked l.ynch's kick, retrieved the ball and scampered over the line to register the first touchdown ever scored by an opposing team on Woodley Field. October 20. BARNSTABLE- An undefeated Barnstable team swept the Blue and C-old eleven off its feet at Hyannis. It was the first loss of the season for the Warriors. Coyle just couldn't keep up with the overwhelming last-period play of the Cape Codders and went down to a I9-O defeat. The first score came in the third period when Barnstable marched down the field to tally. The kick for the extra point was low. ln the last quarter Barnstable came back to score twice more and converted the extra point. Page twenty-five
