FOOTBALL COACH E. A. MARKEY A toast to a swell fella and the best football coach a school could ever have. Northeast is proud of her football coach. Coach E. A. Markey's eleven provided variety de- luxe for the fans of the 1942 football season. Al- though he lacked experienced men, Coach, with the assistance of three returning lettermen managed to guide the team into fourth place. The Vikings finished with a total of ninety-nine points scored against their opponents throughout the season. Only fifty-six points were tallied against them. The Norsemen fought hard on the defense and harder on the offense. Being smaller than the usual Northeast team, the wearers of the purple and white had to rely upon trickery and speed. These tactics proved successful and once the Vikings got started, they were hard to stop. Carl Capra, co-captain, acted as team captain all during the season. His decisions were wise, his experi- MR.

He secured the position of right end on the All-Star Team. Fullback Sal Franks, also voted co-captain, was smaller than Capra but he picked up many a yard by his line bucks. The second team also fought hard during the 1942 season. Their efforts were appreciated by their oppon- ents more than those of the first team as they finished in first place. Mr. George Calvert, coach of the second team of years past, was called to serve his country, so Jay Anderson, Northeast alumnus, took over the job of coaching the second team. Nine lettermen will be returning next year to give glory to the purple and white. SCHEDULE AND RESULTS NON-LEAGUE EXHIBITIONS LEAGUE GAMES Northeast . 0 Wm.

BASKETBALL nm., M, if if it K . . , ' A .F T 'V ,,... CQACH REEVES PETERS Managers- Pee Wee,' Frederick and 'KCurly Feiring Nine times the Northeast track squad has taken first place in the city meet and for more than twenty years her basketball team has fin- ished in the upper brackets. Coach Peters has been the inspiration for all of the above teams. Northeast is proud of Coach Peters. CHEERLEADERS Upper left is one type of inspiration but here is another. These were our razzle-dazzle kings and queens of 1943. Princess Carolyn Weins, mascot, is shown with the other members of her troupe. Note the original outfits. The fives of Chrisman, Ward, and Rockhurst proved too powerful for the Viking basketeers and their single lettermen. Off to a poor start, Coach Peters' Norsemen fought gallantly to redeem themselves in the Interscholastic League race. In this, they fought an uphill battle and although they were defeated four times, the purple and white waved over victory thrice. Foreseen hopes are established in five returning lettermen. Chuck', Shields, forward, was elected to the second all-star team and Mike Miller, center, was given an honorable mention. 22 9
