CLASS OF 1937 Nelson, Stella jusikiewicz and Stella O'Kulovitch. On March l7, eight more girls en- joyed a splash party in Brookline. Those sent from Norwood were: Helen . BOYS' SPORTS FOOTBALL Early in September, the football candidates reported to Mr. lVlurray. The squad was the heaviest in years, but it lacked veterans. This proved to be a great handicap throughout the season. Norwood's first game was with Hudson High, a little corn-patch town in the western part of the state. Played under very unfavorable conditions, the game proved disastrous. Nine of the Hudson players were veterans and they knew where the stumps and mounds of their field were locatedg whereas, the Nor- wood boys, green to begin with, had difficulty in keeping from tripping in the briar patches. The partiality of the officials might further explain the score of 27 to 0. lt was in the No. Quincy game that Norwood really showed its mettle. Stars of this game were Naimi Bader, Marty Kelly, and Ralph Surrette. The final score was 7 to 0. Much is owed to promising, young Donovan, who di- rected a powerful Norwood assault, in a manner well befitting his athletic background. Our traditional, annual battle with Dedham resulted in a glorious defeat for the sons of Norwood. The game was characterized by the 70-yard run made by Dedham's great back, Lyman Avery, who made the single touchdown of gg 23 Simaski, Albina Thompson, Stella O'Kulovitch, Martha Taylor, Stella Jusikiewicz, Lucille Riemer, Betty Schroeder and Lucille Fenton. Annie lVlike '37 the game in the first few minutes of play. BASKETBALL proved to be a big disappointment this year, the team emerged the loser only too frequently. Among the really keen competition that we faced this year was that team which came out of Natick and which proved unbeatable. The team, composed mostly of veterans, was coached by Norwood's own Tom O'Donnell. Nor- wood's chief scorers were Bubber Smith and Nit Gustafson. Norwood's INDOOR TRACK team, coached by Mr. Wheeler, had a fairly successful season. Robert Zoboli, a dependable and consistent broad jumper, could always be relied upon to win his points. Harvey Nutter, Fred Frueh, Charles Diggs, Peter Amirault, Donald Alden, and Franny Quiann were others who performed brilliantly throughout the season. As this goes to press, Coach lVlurray's BASEBALL team has not yet got under way, but the prospects look bright. With the two veterans, Tommy Thornton and Ralph Surrette, and such proven players as Early, Conroy, Amirault, Flaherty, Donovan, Stanavitch, and Smith, we cannot help having a smash- ing season.
