It was the first year in which it gained the limelight. Every time the boys went on the court to play, they had strong hearts and a desire to win which are the two essential qualities for basketball players. Johnny Petralia with 57 points and “Blondy” Mosher with 53 points, supported by Lancier, Cummings, Haren, Hudson, Sherman, Root, McLindon, and Almy, managed to win six out of ten games. The season’s record is as follows: S.H.S.

At the beginning of the year the squad was composed almost entirely of veterans with much experience. Of the 1933-34 squad all the campaigners were back with the exception of Joe Sciurba. This year’s squad included: “Kay” Dumas, “Eddie” Everts, “Ken” Fitz- gerald, “Tom” Hoey, “Elm” Boyce, “Fred” Mac-Master, “Don” Gravelle, “Jack” .......ings, “Bob” Forbes, “Larry” Young, “Willy” Corsetti, “Cy” Williams, “Cec” Hunt and “Tom” Fahje. Taken as a whole this season has been very successful in spite of the fact that the Schuylerville boys lost the Eastern league to Hoosick Falls. In the Class C finals in Troy the “Schuylers” handed the Chatham five a brilliant JO to 20 defeat. They also gave Waterford, a strong Class B school, a 20 to 18 defeat. Keturning for another campaign under Coach Francis Stanton are: “Elm” Boyce, “Tom” Hoey, “Fred” Mac-Master, “Larry” Young, “Cec” Hunt, and “Willy” Corsetti. Although the y are not all veterans, they should develop into a championship team. Things look pretty bright for Coach Stanton’s 1935-30 squad, and if you rooters give the team the same loyal support you did this season, you might have the Eastern league pennant flying once more over Schuylerville High School.

(Girls’ Haskrthall In March 1935 the Orange and Black Sextet of Schuylerville High School finished another season. Alt hough they won only 2 of their 14 games, the team should not be judged as poor. The girls played their best and refused to recognize defeat until the final whistle. What they learned in playing basket- ball will stay with them forever: sportsmanship, cooperation, and loyalty to the team. They raised the standard of the school and the team by showing that it isn’t always the score that counts; sometimes it is how the game is played. Their good training reflects back on their capable coach, Miss Margaret Cussler, who spurred on the girls. Helen Hewitt, right guard and captain, led her team with the ease and grace that all good captains possess. With her worked “Hessy” at center, “Vic” Obie and Lena “Vandy”, forwards, and Helen Barlow and “I)” Dumas, guards. “Margie” White, Maizie “Van”, and Marie Turcotte substituted. The manager, Kate Sirchia, was most excellent and obliging. June graduation, taking many of the members, will weaken the team con- siderably, but there are many incoming players who brighten the outlook for next year’s team. Lena Van Derwkrker ’35 Twenty-Three
