Brief Review of the Year's Athletics. A. lc. Nom.t:. QfM'f'5t5 QQ' llllllih' review of the athletic events ot the past school year is perhaps Htting at A this Iilllv. l'lV4'l'.VlNNlj' who has followed the school the past year is familiar with Fgbb f i what has been accomplished by the various teams which have represented the XVal- - A g by tham lligh, but perhaps it is not out of place to recall the record made. The latter A -fi 'ir part of August sa.w the foot-ball squad hard at work at the camp at NVhalom Lake. Preliminarv work of an elimentary nature was indulged in twice a day for a period of two weeks, under the direction of Coach Tufts. That the time was profitably employed was demonstrated by the results of the season which closedThanksgiving Day with tl1e defeat of Dedham lligh. A total of fifteen games won with none lost netted 401 points for NV. ll. S. to opponents ZZ. a very gratifying result to all interested in the success ofthe foot-ball team. Space prevents going into detail as to individual honors. Sutlice to say' that every man contributed to the making of a team which was one of the best which ever represented lValthani lligh on the gridiron. A quick, snappy team was developed which defeated many ofthe strongest teams in the state. Mention might littingly be made of the Fitch- burg trip. The game with Fitchlnirg lligh was one of the hardest of the season, being won by lValtha.m, 5-0. The citizens of Nvtllltllitlll displayed their appreciation of the victory by a liberal display of red tire when the team reached home. Next in course of athletics came basket-ball. iValtham lligh was practically a novice at this ga.me and also was handicapped by lack of a good 4' gym and a regular coach. ln nearly every game their opponents showed their superiority over NY. ll. S. The team however steadily improved in its playing and made a distinct advance over the previous year. The members who composed the team deserve credit, for what they did accomplish was due entirely to their own eH'orts. With proper support by the entire student body, a good team should result next season, for the school contains abundant material. Class games were played and '06 won the championship ot' the school. The '06 girls not to be outdone by the boys won the girls championship. The track team made a start with no regular coach and was obliged to hire the Newton gym for practice. Under these conditions it. was impossible to do very creditable work. With the material which the school contains, a good coach and the experience of the past year, a good team should be turned out next season. The season opened with a class meet in which '00 won the championship of the school. Next in order came the meet with Lowell lligh in which NV. ll. S. lost by 37 to 15 points. In l+'ebruary the relay team was defeated by Concord lligh relay team by the narrow margin of one yard. At the li. A. A. games in lloston, on March 4th, lValthani lligh relay team lost to the Dedham team. Un March 30th a meet was held in the Newton gym between Waltham lligh and the NV. A. C. in which NV. ll. S. won, -ll to 27 points. ln passing thanks should be extended to John Thomas, Charles llailey and Charles Eaton who from time to time gave the boys some assistance in the way of coaching. XV. ll. S. has a great base-ball team which has thus far sustained but one defeat by a lligh School team and that in a ten inning game, by a score of 2-l, by the st.roug Somerville lligh team with llatford in the box. The league championship will no doubt be won by NV. ll. S., the standing at present being as follows: won 1.os'r rim eicN'r wox 1,os'r mai: cnsr Xvitltllttlll 4 0 1000 Everett 2 2 500 Milton 1 3 333 XVellesley l 3 333 All told the athletic season has been a success and while XV. ll. S. excells in foot-ball and base-ball she has at all times been able to give her opponents a hard contest in other branches of athletic sport. 7
