Forty men reported for the |early season workouts. Several of these proved to be of value, and a ray of hope shone for the first time, but Dame Misfortune arrived gn the scene.

The lack of a flald on which to practice has been a handicap all sea- | son. When the athletes ran against | the New Haven.and Hartford High | schools in the second meet of the sea- | son this fact was brought out more strong!ly than ever, With Memorial | Field at the South end section park avajlable next year this obstacle will be overcome. The team was lead by "Charley” Quigley, a hard and willing worker, His work on the quarter mile track | has been of the highest order all sea- | son. Second only to Quigley in valu- | ation to the team is “Bill" Kiniry. He has been a star in the 100 yard dash, | the broad, and high jumps, and is | prominently mentioned as a prospec- | tiye captain of next year's team. These t®0 men have carried the brunt of the team's success all season. Paul La- | Har has also been valuable. | The team will lose four men through graduation. There is a pos- | sibility that’Quigley may be at school | for another season. The four who | will graduate are Paul LaHar, Dom- | inic Naples, Benedict Durham and | George Murtha. The situation next | year will be Afar better than it was Jthh vear. Monograms were awarded to eight [memhers of the team at an assembly of upper classmen in the auditorium | this morning.
