GIRLS' BHSHEIBHII Wliat a trying season! Wlmat scores! The games won were won by scores much too close for mental eomfortg those lost were lost by much too much in points! Never was there a dull moment during the season. We worked hard, we played hard, and we had fun, The backing we received from the townspeople was just wonderful, and especially we appreciated the tangible evidence of that interest our new uniforms. We are indeed grateful to everyone who helped us. Our deepfelt appreciation goes to Mrs. Ruth Cote, our jolly, cheer- ful coach. A banner next year, girls!

BUUS' SUCCEH Pembroke once again lielded a formidable soccer team for its abbreviated four game schedule. Coach Gordon Pratt encouraged greater interest in the game locally and it is sincerely hoped that next season we may enjoy a more extensive program. The team consisted ofa speedy and aggressive front line, composed of Don Gauley at center, Bob Winchester and Lenny Willett as inners and Hunky Saunders and Paul Brennan as outers. Charles Mix. Eugene Peterson, and joe Federico in the half-back position, and Bob Gillette and Lenny Creeden at full-back aided in preventing the onrushing opponents from sending the ball between the posts, which were guarded by Dick Grilliths. Kingston High journeyed to Pembroke, with only conndence and the willingness to learn. When they arrived their knowledge of the game was such that our boys had to teach them even the most fundamental of plays. Desiring greater competition, the boys challenged the girls to a game, only to have the soccer team's over-anxious half-back become so distracted by the opposition that he failed to keep his eyes on the ball, and unexpectedly found his face in the dirt. Chagrined by their crashing defeat. the girls asked the boys to play them at their own game field hockey. Here, the boys showed their extreme versatility by emerging overwhelm- ingly victorious despite the fact that they were playing this game for the first time.

Despite the broken-down bus en route to the-Jamboree at Plymouth, we did not lose our courage and went on fin private carsj to win by defeating Cohasset, 28-16. Thus began a season which was on the disastrous side as far as scores went, but one which showed the Hght and courage ofa team that will go on to the stars since only three squad members will leave at graduation: Richard Grifliths, Forrest Saunders, and Paul Brennan. In the final game of the season we gave the champion Duxbury team a scare for they won from us by only three points. Again the team wishes to express its gratitude to its respected and admired coach, Gordon Pratt, whose faith in the team is inspirational.
