Football With a turnout of twenty-eight men for football, Coach Granger and Captain Kaye set to round out a winning machine. After weeks of hard practice, Oceanside was reputed to have one of the best teams in the division. A tough season was predicted as the other teams also had strong line-ups. Through several tough breaks” Oceanside was beaten by Malverne for the championship. However, a fighting spirit predominated throughout the season. Arthur Stein, Manager. Qirls Hockey Team Coach — Miss Ruth A. Lewis; Captain — Florence Nau; Manager — Miss Gladys Hill. Field hockey is a new inter-scholastic sport in Oceanside. Florence Nau was elected Captain of Oceanside’s first hockey team. She was strongly supported by the other ten players, as well as by those who came out regularly to practice. Thanks to Miss Lewis and the girls, we feel that we have established ourselves in this new and interesting sport.

Boys' Basketball The Oceanside boys opened their 1930-31 season with four spectacular victories and they looked forward to a successful season. Luck, however, was against them. Playing faster teams the boys won but one league victory, although several games were lost by close scores. On a whole the boys showed up well, considering the opposition which they had to face. Those who received varsity letters were Captain Benjamin Simonson, Donald Aisenbrey, Thacker Kaye, Walter Langdon, Arthur Stein, George Gulick, Franklin Moffit, Donald Lucas, Aubrey Bain, Joseph Ganter, Albert Lichtenberg, and Bertram Mitchell, Manager. Qirls’ Basketball Team The Girls’ Basketball Team of Oceanside High had a very suc cessful season this year. Not only did they win the championship of the South Shore, but they completed the season without meeting a single defeat. This year at Graduation we are losing three of our best and well-known players, namely: Captain Kay McCartney, Florence Nau, and Violet Taylor. Melissa Pearsall will be back again, and so will Ethel Balbin and Margaret Anson. The whole squad is to be congratulated for the loyalty and the backing up it gave the regulars, not forgetting Dorothy Pettit, a very able manager. To Miss Lewis goes the appreciation of the whole school for the work she has done for the girls’ teams since her coming to Oceanside. D. Pettit. T wenty-nine
