l Mn. Joi-:N QUINN DEDICATION Men will come, and men will go, but the people who knew Jack Quinn will not soon forget him. Throughout his fifteen years of service at Simsbury High, he was high in the esteem of the faculty and the passing parade of pupils. A familiar figure at all school activities, whether it was a dance or a game, Jack had an intense feeling of loyalty towards his school and community. He worked hard to make Simsbury High School a place of beauty, and spent many long hours grooming our lawn and tennis courts. Above all, .lack was a personal friend of each student. He was never heard to speak sharply to a student and his friendly counsel was always welcome. .lack was especially interested in the sports program of S.H.S. He never missed a game even if it meant working after hours. For this reason and because of our deep regret and sorrow, it is thought fitting that the part of this yearbook which has been set aside for sports be dedicated to Mr. John Quinn. 29

Starting with a handful of inexperienced athletes, Coach Sholes whipped out a starting eleven. Due to iniuries, many changes had to be made throughout the season. This, coupled with the lack of experience, caused Simsbury to suffer its first defeat to its rival Canton. The turf-ripping Simsburians bore down with longer workouts and extra training. Operating from the single wing the fighting blue and gold gave its opponents a fight to the finish. The linemen who trained under our Principal, Mr. Dodge, gave great support to our four horsemen in the backfield. The Simsbury eleven had to bull its way through a season against experienced outclassed schools. Keeping a stout heart and gaining experience'as the season progressed, Simsbury came out of its slump and took a seven to zero victory over Weaver High. In our last game of the season with a strong Enfield team our boys battled to a zero to zero tie. Although a good season is expected next year, the team will have to suffer the loss of six senior lettermen: Lee Collier John Martinoli Edward Ludorf Ernest Shaw Robert Powers Donald Stewart Kneeling, left to right: Lee Collier, Bernard Bogoslofski, Herby Kolsten Richard Cialfi, Ernie Shaw, Bob Powers, Herby Rosenberg Standing left to right: Eddie Ludorf, Walt Mitchell, Johnny Bogas, Charlie Mamvllle
