The veferans relurning were: Jim Hallock, Bill I-leikkila, Kip Wells, Hugh Semple, Bob Woodworlh, Lyman Dickinson, Rundell Maclean, Jack Chrislopher, Tommy Lewis, Ross Dunham, Charles Frascali. To provide for +he lulure, a junior varsily lacrosse 'ream made up of junior high boys was organized. Bob Woodworlh coached Ihe midgels. In games wifh olher midgel 'reams The youngslers fared remarkably well, downing Nollingham 9-O. and lhe Onondaga Indians, 3-O. The older boys had several scrimmages wilh Nollingham prior Io 'rhe opening of lhe season. Valley emerged viclorious in Ihese and showed lhe spec+a+ors some excellenl passwork which resulled in goals. The firsl varsily game was a Ihrilling Till on a muddy field wi+h lhe crack alumni Ieam. Valley foughl an uphill baffle Io overcome an early alumni lead and lhe game wenl info an overlime period. I-lard defensive play was Ihe highlighr of mosl of Ihe game. Bill I-Ieikkila sank Ihe winning goal for 'rhe varsily as Ihey won out IO-9. I-leilckila, Jim I-lallock, and Kip Wells were Ihe oulslanding players on fhe a+'rack for Valley. In a league game al Geneva, Valley mel deleal al 'rhe hands ol Ihe powerful Geneva Ieam 20-IO. Valley was off ils usual cool, well-shooling game and as a resull was unable Io cope wilh lhe smoolh-passing Geneva aggregafion. I+ was a very rough game which saw many Valley players in Ihe penally box. Kip Wells was Ihe shining Iighl in a losing cause, nelling Ihree goals. Coach Bill Davison has been assisfed Ihis year by a slalil of former players in- cluding Slanlon I-Iudson, AI Paige and Burl I-Iallock. Praclice has been held daily and Ihese fellows are Io be congralulaled on Iheir palience and lailhfulness in helping Io whip Ihe leam inlo shape. The Cenlral New York Lacrosse League has been well-organized, 'rhis being lhe second year of ils exislence. Skaneafeles organized a Ieam and joined lhe league on The condilion Ihal' il should play Ihe second 'reams of lhe olher members. Some enlicing ouf-of-lown games were arranged, among Ihem being an over- nighl Irip 'ro Springfield, and a game al Cornell.

Lyndon Clark reiurned io cover 'rhe keysione sack. and Sieve Blazek provided punch ai shor'rs+op. Third base was an open baiile beiween Bob Walsh and Frank lvicC5lauilin.

The piiching was decidedly weaker fhis year 'rhan in former years, bui Paul Baum, Don Francis, Fran Re+zback, and Lloyd l-lar+ figured 'ro sfrike ou'r lheir share of opponenfs.
