Soccer Still Hope

Soccer Still Hope

Senior

Results of the last two matches have shown that Varsity is capable of producing football equal to the best in the First Division, yet at the same time incapable of beating a decidedly poorer team. However, the team is still confident of success in the future, even against Marist.

Second A

If the eleven or more members of the team would turn out regularly, the team would get a chance to settle down and produce some good football. Much to the disgust of those seven or eight who have turned out regularly, there are those members of the team who have no sense of loyalty to the team or club, and who without any prior notification decide to have a day off.

Second II

This team has treated such matters practically, replacing those who don't turn up with friends who don't know much about the game but who like a regular Saturday kick-around. in their enthusiasm the team has instituted a half-hour practice before every game, which must be attended by all eleven players, or else—. This at least will have the effect of keeping everyone fit. Good luck, anyway. Second B.

Third

Weathering a difficult period of 'flu and mumps without a loss, the team has come through with flying colours. Two wins against Petone Tech. O.B.. 3-2 in the knock-out Cup. and 5-0 in the championship, both games played with only nine men. are the team's latest successes.
