Never say die! was our battle cry and our op- ponents knew they were fighting against five men fired with an invincible spirit. Experience and luck were weighing down the scales that regis- tered the scores. With some good prospects from the J. V. team, next year should bc :t good season to anticipate. 7745i

Although they had no faculty coach the boys carried on them- selves under the able guidance of Red Constantin and tallied four wins against four defeats. ' We lost our Hrst game to Germantown Academy, 13-0, but came back in the second game and scored an 8-O win over St. Andrew's. This was the first of a series of alternate wins. The next game was lost to Tower Hill, 7-6, a heart breaker. Failure to convert an extra point, after a 100 yard touchdown march, spelled defeat. We learned our lesson and took up the loose ends and straightened out the mistakes and went on to take Wilmington Friends into camp, 13-6. The following week we journeyed to Philadelphia where we IHCE the Quakers of Germantown Friends. Although we were beaten, 18-6, I am sure that the second half of that game will be remembered for a long time to come. The next game was played against Archmere, a much more powerful opponent, which handed us our worst defeat, 24-6. The last game of the season was played on Thanksgiving Day. That took us to visit West Nottingham Academy. Our spirited and smooth functioning team proved to be too much for our opponents as they went down before our onslaught, 6-0. Church Farm forfeited a game. Thus we closed our football season with high expectation of a successful season next year.

Phil took over right where he left off, just as though he'd been gone a week. A large num- ber of boys came out for the Hrst practice, and the prospects were numerous and good. In the early stages of practice Dick Johnson and Buddy Tate were the batters that were to lead us to victory. Red Con- stantin will play first until Uncle Sam calls him. George Hume, Jake Nolde and Jimmy Lewis round out the infield. There are many outfield prospects, with Johnny Dyer, Alf Jarden and Bill Robinson among the foremost. It even looks like a few boys can hit this year. So, with that old Sanford spirit, lots of pep and chatter, win, lose, or draw, this baseball season will be one long remembered. I Q35 -
