'A' ir -lr -k Junior Varsity Football HIS year's B squad is one to be congratulated. Against I much heavier and more experienced teams they showed a lot of laudable Hght and spirit. Even during practices when they were thrown against the varsity they played so hard that much of A squad's success was due to these hard fought practices. In the V.'s first game, which was played with Newburgh, they won by a good margin much to the delight of the onlook- ing Corps. This was the only game which B squad played at home. Their next game was with Wfalden High School varsity at Wfalden. The AI.V.'s were out-played but not out-fought here. Again playing away at Cold Spring with Haldean High School, B squad gave a repetition of their previous fine sportsmanship and Hght. Although playing a superior team on a strange and wet field every man played hard and to the best of his ability. Again they lost but they played so fine a game that they had nothing to be ashamed of. With the memory of these two defeats B squad went to Oakwood with the intention of do or dief' They did and won, thus evening up their average. As a reward for their spirit and play, B squad started against Highland High School, an A Squad game. They were taken out and the varsity replaced them but in the last quarter B squad again Went in. They played as good a game, if not better, as did A squad, but several of the most outstanding players were moved up and given places on the varsity. Teamwork and fight as shown by B squad must be founded on a Hrm base. This foundation was supplied by the able and understanding coaching of Mr. Boisseau and Mr. Dunning. Through their work and efforts B squad was molded from inex- perienced material. On the whole this year has been a successful year for both B squad and their coaches. We only hope future teams have as much spirit and Hgh: and as fine coaching as this year's. Page nm' linmlrul llurlg 1 I t t wars I

'A' 1515, um' lrizmlriwl ffiirli-ina 'k 'lr 'A' Intramural Football N THE heart of every American youth lives the desire to play football. He craves the excitement of the action, the physical contact and the strategy which the game involves. In the past it has been difhcult to give every cadet an oppor- tunity to play football because much of the thought and super- vision given to this game was directed upon the Varsity Team in order to make a successful season. This year it was decided to put every able cadet to playing football. An intramural program was arranged consisting of three leagues, Senior, In- termediate, and Junior. These leagues each played a series of games for the championship of their league. The coaching was provided by the instructors, who in many cases showed real ability in their Work. The intramural system was a success from the beginning and great enthusiasm was shown. Not only did it provide recreation for the whole corps but it uncovered and developed much good football material which will be valuable for future varsity teams.
