Our school-wide audience has requested by telegram that sonic of our old numbers be repeated—favorites that have lived down through the years. Pull up your comfortable rocker and while you are transported to the early years of our endeavor; stand by. On the eighth of September, 1918, forty little tots came slowly up the steps of the great R. H. S. tugging on the skirts, hands or sashes of their maternal parents. Each little girl in a fresh gingham dress and each little boy with a new tie. Things were different and the little girls and boys learned the A. B. C's and how to do reading and 'riting and rithmetic under the kind supervision of Miss Mary Brewer. Advancing one year in age. importance and size, the little tots meandered into Mrs. Ward’s room to continue on their journey of reading, 'riting. and 'rithmetic and the hard and fast tables were brought before their eyes. All was calm except for the hair pulling' staged rather often by Ann Knight and Leonard Nicholson. Soon another year had passed and now our “travelers” reached the third grade and where discipline began under the guidance of Miss Yirgic Brewer. A new thing in the next year with Mrs. Kingdom was the organization of the room and election of officers. In the following three years the “happy warriors” grew in all things for it did come to pass that they entered contests for reading, reciting and athletics. In athletics Hazel Bennett, Rose Lee Clagett and Dorothea Hoskinson were especially prominent. These three years of trouble and happiness combined were directed by Miss Maude England, Miss Margaret Morton and Miss Elberta Rice. At the graduation exercises the forty little tots had grown to children and were preparing to take a big step higher; much higher. As they received their diplomas the smile of the conqueror's was spread on each one’s face. And on September morn in 1925 sixty-eight grown up little tots came to join the chorus of knowledge seekers at Rockville. They were a happy lot seven years gone and only four more to do but how? Their arrival attracted no further attention than occasional critical remarks from the upper classmen who seemed to forget how they themselves had once started. Miss Lane and Miss Bordeaux with the rest of the fac ulty “laid down the law” and the poor Freshmen shivered as if chilled A bit of studying was seen for several weeks—the first reports were inde? worth of envy.

After a silence of three months “the troupers” took over the S-O-P-H-O-M-U-R-E station for some better broadcasting. This station was directed by Miss Hickerson and Mr. Gardner. Caesar seemed the only cause for worry while the station sent out reports of the events of the lordly Sophs night and day. The organization of Student Government was the first step towards attracting attention. Every room had the same procedure. The Soccer team was highly successful during that year. Babe Welsh, a sophisticated Soph, represented that class on the Varsity team. In Basketball; Sonny Dawson. Frank Marshall, Rose Porter, Betty Reading and Dorothea Hoskinson were Varsity stars. With spring came athletics and dramatics and Field Day in full swing. On the track the stars were Luther Burdette, Sonny Dawson, Frank Marshall, Babe Welsh, Newts Williams, Ardean Owings, Lucille Penn, and Betty Reading. One hundred and twenty-five points were achieved by Rockville High School—more than any school at the meet. On the stage Sonny Dawson, Frank Marshall and Mary Fisher were found in “Kicked Out of College.” The Sophomore girls won the inter-class Volley Ball Championship undefeated. The first volume of the Rocket appeared that spring, 1927. June brought exams and partings and thus for a second time the station signed off. Juniors! What a strange and dignified term for a station. The “Old Guard” was again at the microphone planing for the best of years with Mr. Blackwell and Miss Sherwood. The rough places of high school were gone— gone except for initiation—what a dreaded word. On nice little cards which each Junior received from the Seniors, they were ordered (not invited) to attend a party in their honor on December 22, 1927. Thei day which was just preceding the Christmas holidays was a veritable nightmare. The party was a very enjoyable affair—for the Seniors—who presided without mercy. However, there were no deaths and each awaited patiently his chance at revenge on the 1930's. In return for the paddling and highly flavored foods stuffed in them on the memorable night, the Juniors gave the Seniors a dance, indescribable with adjectives. The orchestra kept everyone moving. The food and favors proved attractive. It was one of the best ever given, the only damper placed on the affair was the error of the weather man for it poured without ceasing. k Soccer was foremost in their minds in the fall and it was rumored to the greatest of all times. The scheduled games seemed to prove that (nor contained some truth. However, at the semi-state meet between Havre de Grace and the boys, the Orange and Blacks were downed by a goal, j vj “Carrie Comes to College” found many in support to the cast—and thp Faculty play, “The Man from Toronto” was quite a hit. 'f In the middle of the year when excitement was waning the class rings came along to thrill the heart of every future Senior. 'Che Girls’ basketball team jumped to honors last year when they defeated the lower half and clashed with Poolesville for the County Championship otily- o be downed 13-11. Euhice Leizear, Dorothea Hoskinson and Rose Porter carried the Junior colors in every meet. VpieHt Day found more and better Junior representing R. H. S. on the V io . - ■ Page thirty r (Tljr ocbft ■ % ' ;! -! track. The Junior girls won the Volleyball inter-class games and the boys the inter-class Baseball. June again found the nearly grown boys and girls at the end of their third school year. Three years were gone and one to go and a new feeling of the value of a high school education and the knowledge of one year especially well spent would prepare us for the future. Time passed as it is wont to do. Autumn brought them back to Rockville High School to further equip themselves for life's battles. The Soccer team had begun to practice and among the candidates for varsity positions were many members of this class. The line-up front the class of ’29 were: Mason, Marshall. Dawson. Darby, Magruder, Spates, Mathers, and Orndorff. Again the team came into prominence but Pooles-ville won the championship. The best treat for the Senior class was the construction of the new gym which proved in every phase of the word to be ultra-modern. The thought of receiving their diplomas in this new edifice brought a little more studying from the Seniors. Christmas arrived with the delightful holidays that accompany it, and departed leaving them staring into a dull three weeks at the end of which loomed exams. Exams passed, however, and only a few of the class went with them. I he sun came out again and for a few months more the Seniors were especially happy—for the initiation came off February fifteenth with paddles, long dresses, and odd leg apparel for the Juniors. Lordly were the Seniors, the educators and tormentors of the Juniors. The Juniors seemed to forget their maltreatment of the previous week for on February 23 they showed the high and mighty Seniors how to have a real party with fun. The Seniors bowed low to their entertainers in appreciation and thanks. With the completion of the new gym a pageant entitled “The Light” was put on for the dedication. Charles Brewer took the leading male role. Basketball loomed again and for the first time the entire school was able to participate in this sport. The “Old Liners” carried on as before, modest in victory and sportsmanlike in defeat. Inter-class games were staged. The Senior girls and boys both won high honors. Following mid-winter athletics came the school play “Welcome Home Jimmy.” The Seniors were represented in full. Those making the cast were: Frances Jenkins, Sonny Dawson, Betty Selby, and Claude Orndorff. The Rocket became better and better. The class of ’29 were in full attendance on the staff. The editors were: Charles Brewer, Sonny Dawson, and Mary Fisher. A On Field Day the Seniors outnumbered all the others and came throlugW with many points for their Alma Mater. And now as they await their diplomas they look back over the elfpeti years of toil and pleasure, of the dearest of friendships and some eneinic 'jf too, and are reluctant to commence their new existence, because it Will mean separation from all they have held most dear. Their only solace will,: be returning to the old school and finding it with wonderful improyemCjitsL and their under classmen even excelling their greatest hopes. Yet thqy will go forth into the world and carrv with them the standards of Jioekvillg High School. You have just heard the History of the class of ’29 Broadcast by Mtirv Vj Fisher through the courtesy of the Rocket Studio. a 'y (Stand by for further announcements of the class in future years.)

H. S. You have just heard the last words of the Class of ’29. This program was especially arranged for our Rocket audience by Theodore Mason. Please Stand By. Class Jkopljerp “Just let me use that radiovision receiving set for one hour?” 1 asked a rich friend, as I wondered what marks the class of ’29 had made in the world to date. “All right, he said, “but remember, be careful, because that set is powerful and can get any location in the world.” The first person I saw through the radiovision receiving set was Edward Spates taking the oath of office as President of the United States. In looking at the parade which followed I was able to distinguish Alger Barbee marching up the Avenue and playing a cornet in Sousa's Band. Turning to another station 1 heard and saw an Automobile Show in Cleveland and Ardean Owings was on hand to demonstrate the new 1949 Chevrolet. Turning the dial farther to the right 1 tuned in on a typewriting contest in New York and was able to see Leona Harmon, Dorothy Kraft, Margaret Burroughs and Florence Young receiving the four prizes. The next thing I saw was a reducing joint on Montgomery Avenue and Bridge Street and the proprietors were none other than Tubby Jenkins, Evelyn Pepper, and Inez Ballengar. Some new station interfered and this time it was the Rockville Women's Athletic Club, managed jointly by Nell Floyd, Rose Porter, Rosalie Lewis, Dorothea Hoskinson and Frances Fulks. A burst of static and then I heard some one say, “I pronounce yiu man and wife.” Who were the newlyweds? Claude Orndorff and Lucille Penn. 4 r . The next thing 1 heard and saw was Mary Fisher making a campaign speech for A1 Smith, who was still running. Ann Knight and Theodore Mason followed with short talks on Citi- ' y Page thirty-three Ujr ftockrt ' NV UJ : V. H in zenship and Student Government. Incidentally, Mr. Mason is now happily married to a prominent brunette of the class of ’30. Tuning the third dial to 60 I got in touch with a sort of Quaker meeting being silently conducted by the Misses Ilarding, Lowry, Stone, Uni-stead. Moxley, Benson. Bogley and Brake: and Messrs. King. Mathers, Main-hart and Ashby. At 70 1 saw a studio in Hollywood where Rose Lee Clagett and Carl Tucker were “on set . Increasing the magnitude of one of the tubes I received, “True Confession Hour under the guidance of Misses Dronenburg, Dunlop, and Inez Moxley. Way down on the dial, at about 10 1 got Mount Vernon Hills, Virginia, where Frank Marshall, who has taken Woodville Brown’s place was broadcasting on his saxophone—and How! Buddy Maughlin, Ted Barnsley, and Sonny Dawson followed with a joke hour. From New York I heard and saw Betty Reading and Newts Williams showing the latest styles in dress wear—even shorter than the dresses they wore at school. Getting more impatient, 1 tuned to a beauty contest at Atlantic City. Flsie Purdum—Miss Kensington, Ruth Tuohey—Miss Potomac, Betty Selby—Miss Germantown, and Eunice Leizear—Miss Rockville, were among the participants. James Navy Ryan, Admiral of U.S.S. Hyattsville followed with a short talk entitled “Those Hawaiian Girls”. At another location Eleanor Bowman. Gertrude Sherman, and the White Sisters gave short talks on how to teach French. After their talks someone announced that since the radio fans could see as well as hear. Margaret Ward had been forced to stop giving lectures on how to grow. Edith Collins and Violet Ricketts, editors of “Good Housekeeping followed with hints and advice for the housewife. t Memphis. Tenn. I saw Ridgley Howes receive a beautiful trophy for .attle judging and heard him give a speech of gratitude. Ruth Pope. Wall Street Banker, told fans how to play the stock market. She said that everyone came to Wall Street as a bull or a bear, but most of left as monkeys. Fifty-nine minutes of my hour were up so I tried to pick up one more station. 1 was successful and just in time to hear Dr. Charles Brewer tell how he had memorized, “The Lincoln Library” backwards as well as frontwards. f “Well. 1 mused, “the hour is up, and say. that’s the best class that ever hi rassed four years from the lives of the faculty.” Page thirty-four Zi)t ftocbrt ! f Class ongs of ’29 i.

Minuet Gives Good Laugh. The Junior-Senior Return Party was a howling success. The Gym was attractively decorated by all those not on the decoration committee. “Here” Lehman’s Orchestra was really “hot” especially the pianist. Just before refreshments four couples of Juniors and Seniors danced the Minuet. They got more iaughing than applause, although they had worked hard to put it over. Among those present were Miss Sherwood, Miss Schwartz, Miss Wolfe, Mr. and Mrs. Edwards, and Mr. Petrie, some of the alumni and some of the town boys. Everyone had a fine time.

On February the fifteenth a sorry crowd was put through the mill. Pumphrey got the worst of it. Afterwards refreshments were served in the lunch room and the rest of the evening was spent in dancing and cards in the new Gymn “Here” Lehman and several members of the school orchestra furnished the music. The tenth scene, or glimmer, of the pageant was called “A Warning.” It was a one act play, given by the Juniors, representing the need in certain schools for more teachers and better supplies. The pupils represented a noisy school room of seventy-two children. Their teacher was Maude Wilson who was uneducated and unprepared for her work. All during the scene desks, pencils and books were broken up and the talking was incessant. WISE SAYINGS Triumph surpasses defeat. Dempsey. - Truant Officer to Mr. Christie—Why haven’t you sent your son, Alfred, to school ? Don’t you want him to learn to read ?

SOPHOMORE PARTY We are planning a party which we hope will be given soon. We waited until the last of the year so we could have it in our new “Gym.” Charles Prettyman is our prize Latin student. A number of our boys are trying out for next year’s team. Our girls have a “pep” of basketball team. They are doing their best. Oh! Fireman, save my roommate he has on my best suit.

Sophomores are not errorless. SOPHOMORES ACTIVE We now have a cheer leader of whom we are very proud—Diantha Bowie. Margaret Huntington trying her ability in the oratorical contest. Have you noticed that Sophomores do a lot of cheering at the games. Mary Gettings has a patent on the “frog leap” which she uses when she plays basketball.

During Basketball Season the Freshmen appeared with green and white bands and ready for real yelling. Irvin Brooke and Rose Williams were our elected cheer leaders. We proved to the teachers anyway that the class room wasn’t the only place we could make noise. Although we lost many games, our team was really worth the yelling. It wasn’t because our team wasn’t good that we didn't win: it was that the other team was better. On March 1, we found a team we could beat: we defeated the Sophomores sixteen to nine. Ray!

The officers have worked efficiently. REAL FRESHMAN ATHLETES TURN OUT Margaret Lohr and Joe Steinberg were elected captains of the girls’ and boys’ teams. Margaret Lohr made a splendid jumping center; added to the tallness she could really jump. Rose and Ruth made perfect forwards. Josephine and Alice cer-' tainly make a second Nell and Frances, and Shirley is developing into the real side center. The boys team is equally as good. James Floyd has prospects of being a Jack Mark-land. The Joe’s know how to put ’em in! Most any ball is stopped by our guards, Stokes Moulden and Bill i Reading. Mrs. S c h n e i d e r—Slack Nicholson, give me a sentence using the word “chagrin.” Slack (innocently)—The girl she grinned. HONOR IN SEPTEMBER In September and October the A Section of the Freshman class held the real honors of the school, the attendance and scholarship banners. Oh! but weren’t the Juniors Jealous!

Slack—Oh, that would break my heart! FOR CURIOSITY’S SAKE Ask Stokes Moulden how he pulls tacks with a wood chisel. BUT SERIOUSLY, NOW Joe Fisher leads efficiency contest in Manual Training class.

It is the law making body of the school. It consists of one representative from each.home room. These representatives are elected by the students of their respective rooms. i Recognizing the fact that the best preparation for life is living, and that i AlW best training for citizenship in a democracy is citizenship in a democracy, i jthvischool is endeavoring to give every boy and girl in the school an op- yV i i Mfctumty to receive that living and training.

The Council meets every Wednesday, with the Advisor and the prob-lems | ertaining to the welfare of the school are dealt with. . A Page fifty (Cljr fcockct The Citizenship Society was organized in January 1925, under the direction of Mr. Schott to promote the morale of the school and to prepare the student for a worthy Citizenship in our country. To become a member, the student must put forth one hundred percent effort and conduct herself or himself as a lady or gentleman at all times. A new qualification, that of taking a definite part in school activities, was added this year. I c With Miss Schwartz, the Faculty Advisor, the officers who held over from last year were: Ann Knight, President; Evelyn Pepper, Vice-President; Theodore Mason Secretary; Dorothy Wootten. Assistant Treasurer The officers remained the same until the second term when Frank Marshall was elected Vice-President. In January, Frank Marshall, Vice-PresidonJ. became President and Edward Spates was elected Vice-President. The Freshmen became eligible for membership in January.

The Brotherhood has chapters in many of the progressive high schools and colleges throughout the United States V and foreign countries. The national organization issued a chapter to R, H. S. —________— Page fifty-three iCf)C i QChft ■ | which has been framed and hung in the corridor of the new gymnasium. Pins which are easily recognizable are available for all members. In June certificates will be awarded to the twenty students showing the highest degree of sportsmanship in all their school work and their participation in activities. The Sportsmanship Brotherhood takes the place of our former athletic association. The main purpose of our athletic association was to promote good sportsmanship. But now that we are members of the Sportsmanship Brotherhood our purpose seems to have become greater. We not only mean to have a purpose but also to strive to attain it in an unexcelled spirit. This is the only national organization in the school and we feel honored to be members of such a worthy one. Every member is earnestly trying to carry out its ideals. The Brotherhood emphasizes the truth that real sportsmanship pertains to every phase of school life and not only to games as many people seem to think. By continuous striving we are developing a higher and greater spirit of sportsmanship than has ever been known in the history of Montgomery County High School. We may say that we are doing what Theodore Roosevelt said: “Aggressive fighting for the right is the best sport the world affords.” Come, boys and girls let’s make the world safe for sportsmanship. For it is only through cooperation that we may attain our ideals. May this truth be operative in the minds of the people! “Sportsmanship is that quality which enhances the benefits of work and the pleasures of play.” It encourages all mankind in every phase and form of endeavor: personal, national, and international; when exhibited we can see that it gives to the stage of life more fairness and generosity. If only all peoples could realize this and do everything in their ability to comply with its meaning a huge and great contribution would be made to our common, everyday existence. Even many puzzling, trying problems in our national life yould be solved if the code of the Sportsman was ever alert in the minds of the people and probably international problems would vanish. If we early learn the trait of good sportsmanship, we will be able to better enjoy life in the future. To sponsor this sportsmanship every members of the organization strives to be physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

Page sixty-six I , o ----- Rockville s Soccer team proved successful this year in every phase of play except one and that was when fate stepped into the picture at Georgetown “Prep and blew defeat in our faces at the tune of 5-4. The Soccer team was later getting started this year than last. This delay was caused by the lack of a place to practice. Welsh field being still under construction, the Rockville Fair Grounds was secured as our home field. Coach Burdette was successful in building a winning combination from a small squad that consisted of only three of last year’s regulars and three substitutes. The members of the ’27 varsity who returned were namely: iEarp, Dawson, Jenkins, Edward Spates, Edwin Anders and John Gandy. Anders, true to expectations, was the backbone of the defense along with captain Spates center-half, and Darby stellar goalie. The difficulty in getting a field and the handicap of having only a small sWffad was thrown in the background by the determination of the boys to jrV' i-w veijiulate if not surpass the record of the championship team produced by lb’ II. S. in '27.

The first of these engagements took place at Poolesville anil Rockville left Poolesville harrassed, by a clean defeat. The last two games of the series went to Poolesville by such a close margin that if the deciding game was played again R. H. S. would enter the clash with the odds even. The loss of the championship, however, was consoling in two ways. Primarily it is not as hard as it might he to lose to a team that shows as much sportsmanship, affability, and clean hard play as Poolesville did when they played Rockville, and this opportunity is taken to congratulate Poolesville on their success. Secondarily, the sportsmanship which Rockville exhibited during the entire season was of such high caliber that our Principal, Mr. Schott, presented the members of the team with silved soccer balls in token of what he declared the best sportsmanship that he has ever seen displayed by any team, at any time, anywhere. Another encouraging factor was the winning of the District Scholastic Championship which was played in the District of Columbia. The team was managed and coached entirely by the boys themselves during the time they were playing in the Scholastic league. Much credit should be given Manager Dawson and Captain Spates for the initiative they exhibited in entering the team in the league and in furnishing transportation to the games. The silver trophy which went to the champions was presented to the team at the annual banquet hcid at the New Willard Hotel, under the auspices of the United States Football Association.

Pali Miss Wolfe, the Volley Ball coach, moulded into fine shape a team that well represented Rockville High on the Volley Court. The team had a fine record for the year winning five games and losing two. Rockville High feels proud of its Volley Ball Team as it knows the team strove untiringly for every game won. One outstanding characteristic of the team was its sportsmanship. The first game of the season was played at Silver Spring, old Rockville being victorious. The next was played at Bethesda. This team provided a surprise for Rockville and a hard fight was necessary to suppress the B. H. S. Team. The last game of the season was played at Gaithersburg with Sherwood, who had lost one game to Rockville just as Rockville had lost one to Sherwood. The game was hot, tight, and hard fought, herwood won by one point. Here the members of the Rockville Team ved they were good losers as well as good victors. Seven members of the team graduate this year. To them Rockville iTfffh wishes much success. i The team expresses its sincerest gratitude to Miss Wolfe for her untiring efforts to produce a winning combination for R. H. S.

Frances Fulks Page seventy JBops’ pasfeetball The Rockville Basketball team got away to a late start this year due to the delayed completion of the new “Gym.” This greatly deterred the early start that had been planned by everyone around the school. In spite of this handicap the prospects looked very bright for a winning team. With Dawson. Marshall, Markland, and Spates of the ’28 regulars back with the team besides, Gandy, Magruder. Mathers, Stien-berg, Earp, and Jenkins of last year’s substitutes, the squad started practice as soon as they were allowed in the “Gym.” The second disadvantage that confronted the progress of the team, was the lack of a coach. Mr. Glyn Duey was finally secured. Mr. Duey spent all of his time trying to teach the squad some of the things they did not know about teamwork. Our failure to reach the goal for which we had been striving for al| season, we believe, was due to the lack of efficient teamwork in addition to the lack of a place to practice. We did not win the championship. But after all. what does a championship mean considering the fact that Rockville High School, like true athletes and with the true sense of sportsmanship, can take defeat as wjdlld • as a victory. Rockville High School’s Faculty, student body and team wish to congratulate Takoma-Silver Springs, the champions, on their victory and the fair play exhibited by them in their games with Rockville.

While there may be some regrets in regard to the games played, Rockville High knows the members of the team did their best and no others could do better. With six games on the schedule Rockville won four. The schedule opened with a game at Bethseda. Rockville was claimed the victor by a large number of points. The next two games were lost to Sherwood and Bethesda. respectively. Twice Rockville was victorious over Takoma-Silver' Springs. The last game of the season was played at Rockville with Sherwood. Rockville won by a score of 25-18. Since Rockville had lost two games in the season and Sherwood had lost one. the Championship of the lower Montgomery County was Sherwood’s The fighting spirit and good sportsmanship shown by the entire team Iwal remarkable.

Page seventy-two --------- Jfielb 2Dap On a slow track overcast 1 y a cloudy sky Rockville was nosed out by Sherwood by two points for the track and field championship of Montgomery County. The fifteenth annual County Field Day. which was witnessed by several thousand people, was a fast and furious encounter in which one record was smashed and two records equaled. The Rockville girls came through in fine style, winning three important events, while the boys made good time in all of their events but were bettered in four or five favorite track events by record setters. Johnny Gandy did a “Ray Barbutie” and was the only Rockvillian to break the tape, when he won the “220 . Alvin Perkins was condemned by Fate, when he was beaten in the “70” by a time that he has bettered on several occasions this season. Frank Marshall ran a fast “100” but was defeated by Bob Cuff, the Sherwood streak, who stepped the distance a second slower than the world's record. Boone Spates, the Rockville rambler, ran the “440” in 56 seconds but was beaten by Dewey and Fitzgerald who broke the tape two seconds sooner to equal the County record. Bob Beall, equaling the time of Mooney who won the “half” for three consecutive years, saw the heels of Thomas and Loveless cross the line a few yards ahead. Loveless, a former Rockvillian but carrying the colors of Bethesda. equaled the record of Callahan set in 1924. Rockville’s mile relay, composed of Miles, Markland, Magruder and Dawson, did the distance in “four-three” but saw Gaithersburg's team cross the finish line for a new record. Marshall took third in the broad jump and Beall and Markland did like wise in the junior and senior high jumps, respectively, to register three of the five places Rockville got in field events. Jack Lake made a nice take off to get second in the hop, step and jump and “Walter Hagen Wootton sunk his right canal boat in the soccer ball and sent far enough to be awarded second place in the soccer kick for distance. Rockville’s girls proved to have that extra stamina that is always called upon in the pinches and won three of six events for an average of .500. Although Miller Huggins was not here to manage the hit ball team Mrs. Schneider was and proved to be a Miss Walter Johnson when she piloted her team to the championship. Xewts Williams pitched the entire series arid was aided by fine batting on the part of her team mates. The volley ball team under the direction of Miss French playedffiexjl ceptionally well in order to beat out a field of volley ball teams that played for every point. Miss Schwartz’s tc: m of obstacle racers proved to the county that t knew their obstacles w ten they won their event with ease. Although Rockville was defeated this year for the fourth time ill fifteen years every one trained hard and faithfully and if the meet was to be held again this we k Rockville would lie in the running for the championship.
