OE THOMSON deserves a good deal of credit this year for his fine work as
manager of our football team. Joe worked hard all year and certainly helped a
great deal in making our team a success. For assistants he had "Bert" Taylor
and "Bill" Dines, who helped do the strenuous work connected with the managership.
These three boys were on hand at all the games to give aid to the team or
coach when needed.
During basketball season Bert Taylor took over the duties of manager, assisted
by Bill Dines. These boys were good, steady workers throughout the long basketball
schedule and undoubtedly helped in making our team go far toward a state
championship as it did.
The student body will probably never realize the magnitude of the work that
these boys do for the team and for the school every year. They work quietly and
steadily, without any of the honor and glory that the boys on the team receive, yet
a large amount of the team's success depends upon them.
We were indeed fortunate this year in obtaining "Chuck" Meier for our cheer
leader. Chuck came here from Wethersfield, where he had learned to be a real
cheer leader. He kept the student body "going" at all the games and this is certainly
one reason why our teams were always fighting till the last and coming out ahead.
Daryle Bennison was always on hand when Chuck wasn't, and he did a fine job this
year in promoting "pep" in the students and "fight" in the teams.
Again we have a case where the students do not realize the good work these
boys do in making our teams what they are. We owe all these fellows our most
sincere thanks for their efforts.
