MR. WILLIAMS SHAW. MR. WOODS FOOTBALL Our football team, while not enjoying a highly successful season, was a team of which we could well be proud. lts record of five wins, three losses and one tie might well be considered a fine one but for the tact that one of these losses was to our arch rivals from the wrong side of the Jersey Central Railroad Tracks. The team was a comparatively young and green one with only a few seniors in its membership. However, itlwas capably led by our- senior co-captains Jim Fennell and Herb Heip- ertz, both ot whom gave unstintingly to its welfare, Other seniors who played a prominent role throughout the season were Rich Weber, Rich Rubilla, Gas Schaffter, Bob Walker, and Bill Schme'z.

T. RALPH WILLIAMS Coach WRESTLING i938-39 This year Roselle Park placed third in the state meet with Warren Wacker and Herbert Farrell bringing home the cham- pionships in their respective classes. Both Herbert Farrell and Leo Valenti have done a great cleal for wrestling at Roselle Park. Leo has been a consistent winner, defeating a Lehigh freshman and most all the high school competition he has met. Farrell has not lost a dual meet in four years of competition, during which time he wrestled fifty- six bouts and won fifty-three, tieing his first opponent whom he spotted seventeen pounds. Although he did not win a champion- ship in the State Meet last year, he entered the State A. A. U. Tournament which is open to all wrestlers regardless of age, previous experience, etc., ond brought home the title. This year he entered the National A. A. U. Tournament held on Treasure Island at the San Francisco World's Fair and brought home the National A. A. U. title which never before has been won by a high school boy. Needless to say we are very proud of him! D. VALENTI and H. FARRELL
