H ockey FTER only two days of practice the Pittsfield hockey squad journeyed to Springfield, where they were trounced 15-1 by an experienced Cathedral sextet led by the versatile Angelo Bertelli. Some much needed practice before the second game, however, enabled the team to blank the Albany Academy jay- vees 3-0. Holyoke then stopped us 2-1. After beating Philip Schuyler High School of Albany 4-1, the squad turned in another victory over the Albany Acad- emy Jayvees by the same score as the first game, 5-0. We next dropped a 4-3 overtime game to Darrow. Berkshire Industrial School proved an easy victim succumbing 6-0. In the following game, Holyoke repeated their earlier win by holding us scoreless while they pushed over three goals. The final game of the season took the form of a victory over LaSalle 2-1. The consistently fine work of Roche, Olinto, Kellar, and Smith, to name a few, was a big factor in increasing the popularity of hockey among the other sports in Pittsfield High School. Ski Club UCH interest has been shown among students in the increasingly popular sport of skiing. For the second consecutive year a large ski club was organ- ized under guidance of Mr. john Leahy. From this club a team was chosen to represent the school in inter-scholastic contests. Captained by William Eckerson, the team included Robert johnson, Wesley Ashley, Richard Pomeroy, and Albert Polito, president of the club. The first meet, in which several schools participated, was held at the Pitts- field State Forest. The Pittsfield A team emerged with top honors. The out- standing performer was Captain Eckerson, who carried off individual laurels. As a result of this victory the school was presented a plaque by the Greylock Ski Club. The weather permitted only two more meets, which were taken by Adams High and Berkshire School. Besides participating in these three competitive meets, the entire club spent many enjoyable hours on the well covered slopes and trails of Berkshire County. 105
