GLEE CLUB The Cilee Cluh started the season with a rather disappointing outlook: the ma- jority of its members had heen gradu- ated the preceding year, very few new hoys were interested enough to try out for it, and, the preparations for the presentation of the Christmas pageant were interfering with rehearsals. However, once the pageant was out of the way, another call was issued for candidates and this time twenty or more hoys responded. Under the leadership of Mr. Ellis, this group has rehearsed each Saturday morning and has mastered many old and new favorites, which they sing most aceeptahly.

-N el VARSITY TEAM Although not as brilliant as many of its predecessors, the football season certainly has its share of thrills and excitement. The boys, reporting two days before school opened, immediately started to work out their summer softness under the watchful eye of Coach Haire and Assistant Coach C. W. Smith. It was soon apparent that the Saints had a tower of strength in the passing ability of jack Comerford, Big Dick Morse's plunging from the full-back position was also an excellent offen- sive punch, while the two fleet, shifty halfvbacks, Eddie Regnell and Dick Rainey, promised to be hard men to stop. Henry Frost, the captain, was the only veteran in the line from the previous year, and from hfs end position strengthened by his experience his new line of jack Lyons and jud Cvoodspeed at the tackles, Ted Utz and Perry Williaitis at the guards, Tubby Wash- burn at the center spot and Al Tourangeau, who occupied the other end position. The Saints then prepared for their first game, which came on a hot September day. A strong Hofstra Frosh team journeyed to St. Paul's, determined to do or die. For the lirst half the Saints pushed Hofstra around almost at will and it looked as though they would be too tough for the freshmen. Comerford to Regnell seemed to be the key to the attack, and again and again Page Thirty-Eight the Saints marched almost to the goal line, only to be held or penalized as results of their overeagerness. The second half again found a tired Saint eleven fighting stubbornly down the held, only to be foiled by penalties. Once more a Hofstra pass and conversion clicked to make the score 14-U, and thus the game ended. The next week a fighting Newark team came to St, Paul's and everyone knew a good battle was in store. From the opening whistle an en- raged Saint's team hammered at the Newark defense. The Comerford to Regnell combination went to work, and soon the scoreboard showed 6-0 in favor of the Saints, due to Regnell's beau- tiful catch over the goal-line. The conversion failed and the half ended with no further score. The second half proved to be a period of thrills and breaks which kept everyone on edge, but no further scoring was made and the game ended with the Saints victorious, 610. Adelphi was the next opponent, and St. Paul's traveled to Adelphi for the game. The Saints faced a scrappy, light team which not only knew all the tricks but also when to pull them. Again and again St. Paul's marched down the field, only to be held from scoring, This proved to be a fateful day for the Saints, for soon after the kickoff big jack Lyons, left tackle, had to be taken out as the result of a
