ATHLETICS The Wliitesboro Central School has been es- pecially well favored athletically for the last few years. A rare combination of good material and excellent coaching has resulted in W. C. S. having the outstanding teams of the Upper Mohawk Valley Athletic League. Wlietlier we can continue this excellent record is problemat- ical but W.C.S. holds high hopes for the future Allen G. Frye, head of the Physical Education Department, coached all varsity sports.

League Cham- pionship in Football. 1938. FOOTBALL For the first time in many years the foot-ball team finished its regular season unde- feated. The Blue and Wliite first vanquished Mohawk. The team next fought a nip and tuck battle with Proctor but finally blotted out a O-O encounter from the year be- fore. Competition was not serious from this point up to the Frankfort game which ended in our favor, 13-6. Then just to do things right and establish a little tradition which we hope will be continued next season, the boys slashed out a 66 to 7 defeat over Hamilton. The foundation of the Whitesboro team was an experienced varsity, eager and willing substitutees, a good coach, and a s:udent body that backed them up. These same factors should win another league ch impionship nex: year. C. S.

The smartly uniformed fifty-live piece band, now in its tsecond year, has won new laurels. Going from the beginners Class D ro the highly competitive Class B, they this year won 1 rating at the sectional contest and went on to the state finals. W. A.
