THE SHIPBUILDER THE CLASS OF '27 We entered High together In the fall of '23, And we have had a pleasant time In our High School History. As Freshman we were angels We dared not crack a smile, But it surely didn't hurt us For we studied all the while. We had a Wonderful time But oh, how fast it went, For it only seemed a few days When our Sophomore year was spent Then we were jolly Juniors A year we'll never forget, For that was the year we won the cup With a Junior at the bat. But the best and last of all Was the dear old Senior year When the hall we decorated And made it ring with cheer. We mustn't forget the teachers Who led us thru those years, Who guided us so kindly Thru laughter, and thru-tears. We say farewell to High School To a' ve ' g I1 fair, er rippling waters, It seems to be everywhere. - It sweeps through haunted woodlands, And shakes the leafy trees, And blows the fisher's sail boat Out on the mighty seas.

What is a more pleasant way in which to exercise the body than through sports? Sports not only promote good bodily health but also good sportsmanship which tend to make good American citizens. As the ancient Greeks had sports in their schools, slowly but surely are the American schools reaching that standard. Sports have been carried on very successfully in N orwell High School during the past year. The teams have not been un- sp-ortsmanlike in any of the games in which they have par- ticipatedg nor have they lost a great number of their games. The latter has not been stressed as much as the former, we. being told never to be licked even if we are defeated. ' There is a considerable difference between being licked and being defeated If you are defeated you can take it as a good sport and not as a sorehead. BOYS' BASKET-BALL The boys basket-ball team has been especially successful this past year, having defeated many teams of much larger towns. They won twelve games and lost eleven. In the tournament at Brockton Y. M. C. A. they defeated Sharon, considered the best in Class B5 won over West Bridgewater in the semi-finals, but lost to East Bridgewater in the finals. At no time in their basket-ball career have the boys been licked, In my estimation we have a right to be proud of our basket-ball team of 1926-7.

We were very successful in basket-ball this Vear which was largely due to the hearty cooperation of all the girls, everyone working hard and long to make the
