lflf' Sporty HREE YEARS have passed since our first experience with hockey sticks, base- balls, and baseball bats. As timid sophomores we were slammed and battered about the field, but we did manage to come through and win the baseball tournament in our first year of sports. As juniors we offered more competition. We snatched the hockey tourna- ment away from the seniors. To make our junior year still better, we won the basketball and baseball tournaments also. As seniors we have taken every tournament on the record, including hockey, basketball, volleyball, bowling, and swimming. jenny Karpeck was winner of the archery contest, with Mabel Valenti and Kathleen Green finishing second and third respectively. As we go to press, the baseball championship has yet to be decided. In all the years of girls' intramural sports competition in Pittsfield High School, no other class has received so many monograms as the Class of 1940. At the close of the ninth annual physical training demonstration of the girls' athletic department, the following girls received one monogram: Mary Maruk, Grace Houston, Wanda Naprava, Dorothy Yarmey, and Alta Miller. Lillian Blair and Margaret Ward received two monograms, and it is our proud boast that one of our number earned three monograms. jenny Karpeck is the first girl to attain such an honor in the nine years of intra-mural sports at Pittsfield High. We take our hats off to you,jenny Karpeck, and to all the girls who have helped to make our class outstanding in the realm of sports. 109

Track s this is written the prospects for the track season appear bright. Several of last year's men answered Coach Carmody's call for candidates along with a large group of promising newcomers. The only source of difficulty lies in the fact that Captain Sylvio Conti will probably be out for part of the season because of a knee ailment. The team should prove strong with the experienced Raymond Sawyer running the mile and Bill Pierson on the half-mile. The 440, usually run by Conti, will be taken care of by Dick Sabin. Everett Gleason and Frank Limardi are good material for the 220 and 100 yard dashes. The broadjump will have likely candidates in Edward Germanowski, Sam Arena, and Leland Grady. Grady and William MacHaffie will also be out as high jumpers. Everett Tatro is a promising man for the pole-vault. The weight-men will probably be Richard LaBarbera, Edward Haddad, Anthony Calabrese, and Ed Germanowski. 108
