QI, MANET 'R' BOYS' Tl-ILETICS i . . - X N A QNQ .A-., Kenneth Dowd NORTH LOSES FIRST ONE The first venture on the athletic field by North Senior resulted in a 2-0 loss at the hands of the Plymouth High School Soccer team. A TVeight and experience swung the scales in favor of the Plyiiioutliites. The light Blue tllld Gold forwards could do nothing against the much heavier Plymouth backs, but the North ltacks did fairly well against the big, rangy Plymouth forwards. The North front line 111911 had very few shots at the invader's goal, but Murray in the North net had plenty to do. The game was played at the Atlantic play- ground before a good crowd of rooters. NORTH 3--TRADE 1 Showing a nice brand of soccer the North Senior High booters took the Trade School ankle-tappers i11to camp to the tune of 3-1 i11 the second game of their season. A short, fast passing game had the Trade School boys in the air for the first part of the game, but after the Tradesters settled down, the game was more closely contested. Leadbetter, Allen and DeYoung counted for North. all on pretty shots. The backs cleared tl1e occasional flurries Trade ran and the for- wards were usually inside the Trade backs. PLYMOUTH WINS AGAIN For the third game of the season the North Senior team journeyed to 'Plymouth and took another whitewashing, this time by the score of 3-U. The story of the first game was just repeated in this one. XVeight and experience again took the toll of the North eleven. Heavy forwards and heavier backs spelled ruin to the North Senior hooters. The boys are looking forward to more games with Plymouth next year, when they will have added weight and experience to cope with them. TRADE SCHOOL 2 -NORTH 0 The Quincy Trade School soccer team de- feated North at Faxon Field 2-0 to even up the count in their two game series. This was the fourth game for the Northerners. The winners scored both points in the first half on well placed shots that gave the goal tender no chance to save. The work of the forwards in this game was very weak. Time and time again they had the ball ready for a shot only to fumble it or let a Trade back take it away from them. The Trade School is another 0119 we want on our schedule next year. ANOTHER DEFEAT Playing in a high wind that raised havoc with the ball the Quincy High seconds kalso- mined the North Senior soccer eleven 6 to 0 at Faxon Field in their last game of the season. Francis Haynes and Dougie McBride bagged all of the winners' points, scoring three goals apiece. Haynes put one in the goal with his head on a cross from MacGibbon and the other were scorchers from the forty yard line that just went under the bar. McBride came in close for all three of his. The Quincy boys knew just too much for the Northerners and they were also too fast. SOUTH DEF EATS NORTH Playing in nice form the South Junior High soccer team lowered North Junior's flag to the tune of I3-0. Frankerio, McPhee, and Fezzetti accounted for the goals. Lamb, in the losers 11et had a difficult time and the goals that beat him were all real goals. South had a rather easy time of it as North never really threatened. . This game played at Faxon Field opened the soccer season in the junior highs. POINT 4 - NORTH 0 The Quincy Pointtsoccer team showed North -lunior how champions play soccer when they whitewashed them -l-0 at Faxon Field in a league game. Playing with a nice offense and a steady de- fense the Point boys had no trouble at all in wading through the North team. Both for- wards and backs were completely fooled time after time by the clever playing of -.'. -the Point boys. ' ' North played rather listlessly and could use a bit of pep. , NORTH IN LAST PLACE A battling 'Central eleven pushed' the North Junior team into last place in the soccer league when they pinned a 6-2 defeat on them. This game marked the first time North has scored since the league opened. MacMillan and Fay accounted for the North goals with Dunn, Rookie, Tappa, W611tXVOTtl1, Dale, and a. North back who accidentally knocked the ball into his own goal bagging the markers for the Central- ites.

MANET 25 Elinor Reilly OUR NEW INSTRUCTOR This year we have with us a new physical instructor for the girls to take the place of Miss Mullarkey. She is Miss Elizabeth Baker and she comes from Hot Springs, North Caro- lina. Miss Baker attended Sargent School which is right here in Boston, Cambridge to be exact. Before coming here to North she taught at several other places: at VVinnetka, Illinois, XVll1l1lllf.l'lOl1, North Carolina: and at Sullins College, Bristol, Virginia. Besides teaching her regular classes, Miss Baker coaches all girls' athletics and is sponsor of the Girls' Gym Club. BASKETBALL lVhat an improvement over soccer! There were about a hundred girls out for basketball, the whole gym was cluttered up with prospec- tive stars. This year a new plan is being carried out. There will be no school team to monopolize the gym while those less talented sit on the bleach- ers and look on with downcast countenances. There are to be as many teams as the number ot girls will permit. Also there will be a divi- sion between the junior and senior units, each having its' separate practice period. At the beginning of the season the players are drilled in preliminaries, such as handling the ball aptly, and shooting baskets accurately. NVhen teams have been organized they will com- pete. Then the winning teams from the junior GIRLS' ATHLETICS and senior groups will play a game to deter- mine the school's champion team. At the end of the season this team will play with the best sophomore team from Quincy Senior High. NVe were glad to see so many girls down for basketball and it there are any of you who have not come down as yet, remember you 're invited. SOCCER This year, for the first time, soccer was in- cluded in girls' athletics. It was played as a substitute for tield hockey which is the custom- ary fall game for high school girls. But owing to the tender age ot our school we were a trifle financially embarrassed and were not able to buy the equipment necessary. So we played soccer and liked it. lt's great fun and I hope that next year there 'll be a whole lot more girls coming down to find this out. The game is played just like the boys, with not quite so much brutality. As it happened only eighteen girls came down for soccer, so we made two teams of nine each. Three games were played and the winning team won two of them. The girls on that team were as follows: Hazel Winders, Lorraine Stevens, Rita Darling, Elinor Reilly, Natalie Archer, Margaret Deer- ing Betty Atkinson, Rita Mcliean and Betty 7 Donna. But next year we want a whole crowd of girls coming out for soccer, about fifteen teams instead of two halt teams. VVe'll be looking for you. 1-0-1 NVhat is worse than raining cats and dogs?
