FOOTBALL VVM. M AST E RSON N former years Taunton High School had been represented by a foot- ball team that was feared by all of its opponents, but during recent years the football team has not been up to standards of other high school teams. Our elevens have lacked systematic coaching. But it was the good luck of Taunton High to get a coach, for the season of 1922, who did build for system. VVhen the first call for candidates was issued, over forty men reported, including tive veterans. The coach had a difficult task to till the places of the men who had gone by graduation, but after untiring efforts he gave the school a team which it ought to be proud of. Although it did not always win. it was always game and never gave up, whether it was win- ning or losing. Taunton opened its season when it played Vieymouth High School with a victory for Taunton of 12-0. The next gan'e of the season was with VVest Roxbury, rated as one of the best teams in and around Boston. After a hard fight Taunton was defeated 6-O. ln the year 1921, Durfee High defeated Taunton 34 and 21 to 0. In 1922 defeated Taunton by only 12 to 0, so it can easily be seen by this that by next year Taunton will have a team which will come up to any high school team in this sec- tion. Taunton had many ups and downs during the season but whether the boys won or lost they always came up smiling. The Class of 1923 wishes a successful season to the football team of 1923, and to the coach, Mr. Mullen, and to Captain Borden. The Letter men of 1922 are: Captain XVILLI.-XM, MAs'rERsON: Manager, GEORGE SWARTZQ GEORGE lVl.-XXWIQLL, FRANK MCNIiI,LX', EVERIETT BORDEN, J. CARLETON BRADY, CARLETON BARBLOM, CIIARLEs MCCARTIHIY, FRANCIS MONE, RICHARD BUCKLEY, FREDERICK TRIPI1, VVALLACE CARROLL, VONSTEIN FREEMAN, ADRIAN BEAULIEII, LEO KENNEDX', ARTHUR GERMOND. BASEBALL The baseball team with lVIcNelly, King, Masterson, Capt. 'OLeary, and Boardman of last year's team and twenty more candidates are anti- cipating a successful season. Under the leadership of Coach Mullen they are bound to have a good season. The year of.1923 has been the first in the history of our school to have girl cheer leaders. As a result we have had a gradual increase in the cheer- ing sections at our games. The cheer leaders that graduate with the class of 1923 are: FRANK KING, ROSE TUTTLE, MARY HOUSTON, ELOISE MoRsE. There is no doubt that, if the cheering section continues to increase as it has increased in the past year. next year will be a successful year in athletics. E. M. 69
