tae, MY THANKS While lying here, in deep, sublime content, I feel afloat, as clouds above do soar, Sweet peace that seemed to me from heaven sent, As quietness that our free souls adore. This solitude made me begin to think, How fortunate, in peace, it is to live, While those across the sea, are on the brink Of death, with others ready their all to give. The noise and din of battle rends the sky, As we about our daily chores do go, Our thanks and praise we give to God on high, While some afar this peace will never know. My thoughts return, and now my dream is o’er, May heaven guide our peace forever more. Stanley Littlefield.

BASEBALL Despite the transportation difficulties facing them, New Bedford fielded a baseball nine this year. For the most part, the games were played in the near vicinity. The nine was sparked by Mickey Sullivan and included the following seniors: Victor Chausse, Denny Moniz and Harold Cooper. Lou Rebello, Mickey Sullivan, James Downey, James Ryan, Gene Sullivan, Harold Coop- er, and Antone Pina comprised the starting nine. New Bedford won eight games and lost six. Ne Dee pp: N.B.

The Crimson made a good showing but its performance was not the same as those of the past few years. A lack of veteran material shows in the lineup. The only real veteran is Lou Rebello. Coach Dodge usually comes up with a good basketball team and we feel sure that the Red and White will win a good share of their games. Because of mid-term graduation, there are no members of the senior class among the players. 1943-44 SCHEDULE Cranston West Pawtucket, Brockton, West Pawtucket, Vocational, Taunton, Durfee, At- tleboro, Durfee, Brockton, Fairhaven, Taunton, Attleboro, Vocational, Fairhaven.
