Hart, F. Wilson, C. Steinhofi, L. Ostrander, T. R. Sylvester, Coach MQW This year the Maroon and White players had a tough season. Although the average of games won was not very high, nevertheless that average is no gauge of the team's fighting spirit. Almost every game in which they were defeated was lost by one or two points in an overtime period. The Williamstown team, captained by Henry Bunoski, never went down without a hard fight. It was a green team this year and the players were not accustomed to playing together. It was not until the very last of the season that the team really hit its stride. Everyone who saw the M. S. C. tournament - the large group there which represented our town is a tribute to the way Williamstown supports its team i certainly knows how good the team was then. The first night of the tournament W. H. S. easily overcame Smith Academy by a 35 to 25 score. Then in the semifinals after a terrific fight, the locals succumbed to Turners Falls 25 to 24 in another fatal overtime. It is interesting to note than in the finals Turners Falls defeated Deer- field 37 to 17. This score gives an idea of how close Williamstown came to taking the trophy again this year. The letter men were Capt. Bunoski, Steinhoff, MacMillan, Burns, Connors and Madden. Perry, Hart and Lemay also saw considerable service.

Darling, Coach Sylvester, Mgr. Fleming MQW Coach T. R. Sylvester called out candidates for the football team the first day of school. There were plenty of new faces on the squad as the majority of the 1931 record breaking team graduated. Of the veterans Bunoski, Connors and Goodermote returned. The outlook for the 1932 team was quite vague owing to the small number of veterans who returned. The eleven at the beginning of the season was considered a green team but the opinion of the team changed as the season progressed. The most outstanding game of the season was the battle at Pittsfield with St. Joseph's. It was the most talked of and was considered the best game of football played on the Commons in Pittsfield. This year was the first year that a W. H. S. football team went through its season un- defeated. Another year should see another undefeated team as only one veteran, Jimmy Steinhoff will be graduated. Drury has been added to the long list of opponents for next year.

' - .adm init BASEBALL Front row, left to right - F. Connors, J. Smith, F. Norton, J. Steinhoff, Capt., E. Madden, H. Bunoski, R. Burns, H. Vandersloot Second row - R. Darling, Mgr., L. Ostrander, R. Davis, C. Steinhoff, R. Smith, F. Wilson, E. Czarnecki, W. Gage, J. Kelly, Coach Sylvester WWW The 1933 Baseball Squad responded to Coach T. R. Sylvester's first call for practice in large numbers. Only two veterans remained from last year's successful squad, Bunoski and Steinhoff being the only mainstays. It seemed to all the fans that W. H. S. would have another green baseball team. In the first game of the season after trailing Adams for 9 innings, they came out victorious. Victories continued for the first four games, and after j ourneying to Bennington they lost what seemed to be a runaway game to Bennington High. One feat which this year's team has accomplished is, it has knocked off the Adams nine in home games, something that has not been done by a W. H. S. nine for a number of years. To climax a successful season the team has hopes of knocking off the Tunnel City aggre- gation. M M M M M MQMQ 31 MWMQM M M M M
