The years come and go, but athletics Will, we hope, go on forever . Football heads the fall sports calendar with Coaches Galvin, Dimpsey, Tedesco and Albrecht in the driver's seat. Al- though our team is not so well balanced as our competitors', who win the hon- ors, too much cannot be said regarding the pluck and grit of every boy on our team. Captain Kunz, who is one of the smallest grid ironers , surprises every- one by being far in front of the heralded stars of other schools. Many rooters are on hand to en- courage their favorite teams. An aver- age of 150 loyal Farmingdalers are in evidence at each game and their hearty support, consisting of their presence, their cheering and good Will, is stimu- lating and encouraging. To show the boys that we are all still rooting for them in spite of their de- feats, the entire student body, includ- ing the High School Band, is turning out en masse tonight to spur the boys on to victory.
