1(5 SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR At last the football season that we have looked forward to has arrived. Football prac- tice began the Monday after school opened, at the Somerville Recreation Field, with a squad of over fifty candidates anxious to prove their ability as football players. Now, at the end of the sixth week, two husky squads have been formed to battle for positions on the regular team. The boys have faith in Coach McLaugh- lin’s ability to bring them through this season as a championship team, and every member of the squad is working hard to repeat Somerville High School’s enviable football record of last year. Gilkey, our captain and veteran star tackle, is welcomed-back on the gridiron, where he is do- ing fiis best to produce a championship team. •: v SOMERVILLE vs. ST. MARK’S Somerville High won its first game of the season against St. Mark’s Academy on October 2. 1920. Somerville outplayed St. Mark’s in every phase of the game, and won by a score of 14—(). A ninety-yard run. for a touchdown, by McPhail, was one of the outstanding features of the game. Simpson carried the ball for twenty-five yards through a broken field for the other touchdown. Gilkey kicked the goals. The lineup:— Kelliher, l.e. Gilkey, l.t. C'aldroni, l.g. Callahan, c. McKclvic, r.g. Knibbs. r.t. Chase, r.e. Coyne, q.b. McPhail. r.h. Lynch, Fay. I.h. ; Simpson, f.b. Kelliher, our fast left end, and veteran of last year’s team, is back in the line in his old posi- tion. Chase, our snappy right end. is back in the lineup this year and is expected to play his usual game. Simpson, our veteran fullback, is back this year with all his pep and all his ability to buck the line. Lynch, a veteran end, is expected to play his usual snappy game, not at one of the ends, but as left halfback. McPhail, another veteran backfield man, is back with his usual fighting spirit. v SOMERVILLE vs. TECH. ’23 On October 9 the S. H. S. football team played a scoreless game with Tech. ’23 at the Somerville Recreation Field. Tech, had a big, powerful team and would have defeated Somer- ville but for the wonderful fighting of the Som- erville team. McPhail, Simpson and Lynch did good work for Somerville. Captain Gilkey played his usual game.

18 SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR 1922 Wilbur G. Stanley, Editor Natalie C. Hailwood, Assistant Editor LEMUEL ROGERS Inquisitive 1st. yr.: “Say! Where’s Room 214?” Experienced Junior: “Go right over to the east building and take elevator by Mr. Sears’ office.” Is Jones a deep thinker? He must be, because none of his ideas ever get to the surface. “What do you expect to be when you come of age, my little man?” asked the visitor. “Twenty-one,” was the little man’s reply. Heard in Algebra:— Miss B: “Don’t laugh, he meant that in good faith, didn’t you?” Confused O’—hn: “N—No, ma’am.” Well, Juniors, we arc back in school again, the same old class of ’22. the largest ever. Let’s get together and make our column of the Radi- ator the best ever. Everybody Contribute! Customer (in restaurant): “Look here, waiter. I’ve found a buckle in this salad.” Waiter: “That’s all right, sir; it’s a part of the dressing.”—Ex. Extra ! 1 A man commits suicide by shoot- ing himself in his basement(?) Heard in French:— Teacher: “What is the French word for ‘here’?” Voice from the rear: “That’s easy (ici) Heard in II Geom. i:— Angle A agrees with angle B and C respect- fully. A Coleman had a Ford. One Day his Radia- tor kept Freezing, so he sent for a Plummer named Waters who he Hurd would Tinker with it for a Price. While turning a Corner with a load of Cole, Rice and Coffey, it began to Hale. Just then the Thorn of a Thistle, which was as Sharp as a Needel, punctured his tire Wright in- the middle. A Tribe of Young country Hicks came a Long just then, and the Coleman said: “You’re Good- fellows, Backus into the Barnes and I’ll let you crank her to make your Armstrong and I’ll give you each a Coyne and a Golden Ring when you get through.” Some class to some of our schoolmates who come to school in their cars. We hear that some of them don’t even bother to take their emergency brakes before starting.
