CLASS OF1935 31 Football HE football season was a fairly successful one, as the team went through the season with live wins and two defeats. For the first game the team took a strong Tabor team into camp to the tune of 6-O. Although the play was a bit ragged, the game was well-played and hard-fought. Next Moses Brown defeated Country Day, 13-6, on a very muddy, slush-covered Field. The score was 7-6 until the last play, when the visitors scored on an end sweep. Beacon was the next opponent and proved to be an easy one as Country Day trampled over them rough-shod, 3845. Next, Rivers fell, 19-O, in a line football game. Johnny Perry sufered a hip injury which kept him out of the running for the rest of the season-a sad loss to the backfield. Country Day then journeyed to Milton, and after a hectic struggle with a very powerful Milton Academy eleven, came out on the short end of a 28-0 score. Bob Gorham joined John Perry on the sidelines with a broken rib, which meant one less backlield man for the Roxbury Game. The game with Roxbury Latin was one of the highlights of the season, and Country Day won by a 7-6 score in a close, hard-fought struggle. Much credit is due to Captain Miller who played a line game and was largely instrumental in pro- ducing the victory. To round out the season, the team defeated Browne and Nichols 19-0 in a rather one-sided game. This year. the team was greatly aided by Mim Daddario, a product of Tilton, who is an all-round athelete and a sterling football player. Captain Miller was an inspiring leader because of his indomitable spirit which was a great factor in keeping up the morale of the team. Johnny Perry was missed, because his former experience made him a valuable asset to the team. No small credit is due to the rest of the team who aided those three by their remarkable support, without which nothing could possibly have been accomplished. Much credit is also due Mr. Wales and Mr. Clarke for their interest and tireless work throughout the season. Those who were awarded their C are the following: Captain Reed Miller, Emilio Daddario John Perry Robert Gorham, Eugene O'Donnell, John Haley, William Bennett, Phil Smith, Duane Treeman, 'Richard Everett, Edward Mitton, Phil Downes, Edgar Tucker, Richard Brickley, Calvin Hill, and John Cranshaw, manager.

CLASS OF1935 33 Hockey Team HIS year the hockey team suffered from lack of practice. Although we had the use of the rink on Noyes Field, it was really too small to be of much use, and we were forced to share the city rink with Newton High School. With the end of the season we had won 3 out of 9 games. However, much satisfaction resulted from winning the Rivers game. The season began with losses to the Harvard Freshmen 2nd and Belmont Hill teams. Both games were well played, but the game with Belmont Hill was played on very poor ice. In the next game we defeated Hudson High 4-3 in a very sloppily played game. On a very cold day we were next defeated by Watertown High. This game was very even and the winning goal was a freak. VVith the next two games we reached our peak. VVe defeated Rivers 2-1 and Governor Dummer 342. Both games were played on excellent ice and were the hardest fought of the season. After these games we lost successively to Roxbury Latin, Wellesley High, and Milton Academy. Even though we lost these games we very stiffly contested the result. Captain Gorham was the best player on the team. He is good enough to make any college team. Other standouts were Mim Daddario, who played center, and Reed Miller who guarded the nets after the first three games. Both of these also stand an excellent chance to make college teams. Johnny Perry was very valuable for his speed and light. The other players who played regularly were Roddy Madden, John Cranshaw, Endy Smith, Richard Everett, Jack Haley, and Jack Andrew. Mr. Babcock deserves great credit for his untiring efforts with the team. The following received letters: Captain Robert Gorham, Mim Daddario, John Perry, Reed Miller, Robert Madden, Endicott Smith, john Cranshaw, Jack Andrew, Jack Haley, Richard Everett, Robert Jordan, Arthur Santry, Phil Downes, and Gene O'Donnell, manager.
