Prospects from 1950 second crew together with five veterans of the 1950 squad plus the expert coaching of Chief Kenneth F. Burns blended well to make a fine team. Schools scheduled for the season's races included Columbia. Kent and Tabor, climaxed by the New .England Regatta, which was held on Lake Quinsigamond. Many fine New England schools were entered in the event.

Mr. Fred Hedlund This year's baseball team should practically reverse last year's record which consisted of only three victories. What was then a young, inexperienced team this year consisted of tried veterans who were out to seek revenge upon their worthy opponents. The Blackstone Valley League Championship was to be their endeavor. Best of Luck Boys!

N ancy Judson, Joyce Firmin Managers .................. Barbara Putnam, Carol Bonardi Led by Co-Captains Nancy Judson and Joyce Firmin, the basketball season ended with a respectable slate of 4 wins and 8 losses. Nancy Judson, despite her lack of height, wasour main rebound artist with her slicing leaps under the basket. either to tap the ball into the basket or to snatch the ball away from the grasp of taller opponents. With Joyce Firmin and Bobbie Loomer playing the outside and deftly handling the ball, we had a well balanced forward wall. On the other side of the court the guards, Frances Zuromskis, Culoria Symonds and Ann Sequin playing a tight zone defense kept our opponents' score down to a minimum. Since only six seniors made up the Hrst team, sub- stitutes from the second team were recruited in case of absence or fouling out of a player. Our managers this year were Barbara Putnam and Carol Bonardi whose gallant efforts to keep score in the games, clean the locker room, and do hundreds of other things were greatly appreciated by the squad. This year's schedule was as follows: Shrewsbury 25 Millbury Shrewsbury Zl Millbury Shrewsbury l l Grafton Shrewsbury Z6 Grafton Shrewsbury Auburn Shrewsbury 6 Auburn Shrewsbury Holden Shrewsbury I7 Northboro Shrewsbury Marlboro Shrewsbury 32 Holden Shrewsbury Northboro Shrewsbury Marlboro
