FGOTBALL In spite of the promise shown at the outset of the season, the junior Varsity football team had to set- tle for a season's record of one and five, the sole victory coming in the game with K.U.A. when, playing on their home field, the Wildcats squeaked through with a 2-O victory. Injuries which knocked out sev- eral key men, including Eric johnson, starting quarterback, Sam Bartow, wingback, and Larry Rice, end, were a major factor in scuttling the JV hopes. The starting offensive backfield included Hasseltine at wingback, Johnson at quarter, Vea at fullback, and Ruth at halfback. The line included Hickcox at center, Stewart and Noyes as guards, Compson and Naramore at tackle, and Rice and Clarner at the ends. Standouts on the defensive team were Kilgore, end, Ross, guard, Miles, left tackle, and Captain Bob Noyes at guard, with Singer, Ruth, and johnson as the secondary. Vermont Vermont ......

CROSS COUNTRY In its second year as a recognized sport, cross country running attracted a dozen and a half devotees, who rang up a fair season in spite of a good deal of rugged competition. Mr. Black, making his debut as coach, saw to it that the squad faithfully practiced each day. His guidance and enthusiastic encourage- ment proved indispensable to the harriers. Under the spirited leadership of Pete Myers, the team worked extremely hard. Mainstays of the team included Pete Myers, always a strong contender, Fred Okie, a fleet-footed new- comer. and veteran Pete Allen. Other stalwarts included Don XY'elch, Roger Seagrave, Al Dixon, Mark Leonardi. Tom Stevens, Rick Cooper, and Gay Dorman. In the season-opener with Rutland, V.A. lost 34-21 to a strong team. Brattleboro High won over the XVildcats by identical figures. Poor weather cancelled consecutive meets with Keene High and Deerfield. The returnimatch with Rutland resulted in the same score as the original, with the winners again led by Mike Gallagher. Keenes powerful runner Fletcher led his mates to a 17-38 victory. The tide of defeat was finally turned when the Wildcats, in their finest performance of the year, beat the Mt, Hermon jV's 25-30. Pete Allen led the winners with teammates Stevens, Cooper, Dorman, and Dixon also figuring in the scoring. In the last two meets V.A. split with Putney School. Ted Okie led his mates to a 26-31 victory on the V.A. course, but a strengthened Putney team won the season closer. Next year's team will be led by Captain-elect Gay Dorman and will have a carry-over nucleus of the fol- lowing runners: Okie, Allen, Dixon, Leonardi, Cooper, and Stevens.
