CLASS OF1935 35 Baseball N April 12 the baseball squad came out for the first practice. The prospects for the season were not too brilliant, inasmuch as there was no pitching staljf. Bob Jordan was the only pitcher we could rely upon for more than four innings. Johnny Perry and Masoa Yatsuhashi also worked out during the early part of the spring as pitching possibilities. Bob Gorham, once more, spent the spring guarding home plate. Dick Brickley, Reed Miller, lXlim Daddario, and Yatsuhashi completed the infield. The outfield consisted of Johnny Perry, Fndy Smith and Jack Haley. Dick Everett has been filling up the vacancies in the club very efficiently. The first game was with Wellesley High School and our team won a closely fought contest. Down at Moses Brown, however, the team got off to a bad start and was unable to regain the lead, although they made a great attempt. On May 2, the Cambridge School club came to Newton for our first home contest and the boys did a great job of trouncing dear old Cambridge. The next two games were rained out, but when Beacon appeared for their game the boys gave it to them on the chin and brought home the bacon. The anticipation of the Roxbury Latin game must have been too great, for the boys were throwing the ball before they caught it and chalked up many errors to give the game to Roxbury. The next two games with Brooks and Rivers should be victories for Country Day. If the boys win both these games they will have had a very good season, losing only two out of seven games for an average of .71-l. If they should lose these two games they would have an average of .-l28. Most of the team graduates this year and they join me in wishing Coach Moginot and the squad the best of luck next year. W. E.

36 COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL The Dramatic Club JOHN S. HALEY . . ...., . Preyidenl JOHN A. IANDREW, JR. . Trmfurer MR. H. R. VVILES . , . . Coach JOHN A. CRANSHAXV . . , Siege illamzger HAROLD B. CRANSHAW, JR ..........., Propergv Illamzger HIS year's presentation of the Dramatic Club was Ian Hay's The Midde Watch, a rollicking comedy of the British Navy. The story centers around a love affair in which three or four high-ranking officers become involved. Thanks to past experience, both on and behind stage, the play was run off in faultless style. Jack Haley, the Oldest member of the Dramatic Club, and Dick Everett turned in roles which showed their experience at acting. Duane Treeman and Bill Bennett were in the other important parts. The girls were headed by Bobby Chase and included D. Locke, John Calhoun, and Jack Frenning. Comedy of the funniest kind was furnished by Malcolm Remick and Chauncey Waldron. The part of a Chinese servant was played by David Henry. Back stage, John Cranshaw's efficient crew shifted scenes in a professional manner. After the play an orchestra made the evening success- ful and complete with dancing.
