Uughtorl r iipcoaro"; A Tribute By BOB BATES,' Coach I would like to pay a tribute to a group of sixteen boys who made up the squad of this-.;' year's Perquimans High School football team. 'From the very first day of practice to the final whistle of last Thursday's game these boys have ' worked ' hard, long and faithfully to bring . glory 'end honor once more to Hertford. With the ever present thought ' of those pint fiYeJtdngj tosmg years, fcf foot, ball before .'them these lads 'worked unceasingly with but one objective in view to produce a team that could and would win. Their first game was a losing one, but yet in losing I had the feeling that as long as these boys played and fought as well in the future as they had that day, the fruits of victory would not be far off. And then it happened A Perquimans eleven that would not and could not be beaten staved off repeated thrusts at their lapidly tiring line to win their first victory in five years, beating a strong Plymouth team 8-6. It took a gallant lad's misfortune to produce the spark that led on to a successful season. Paul Tucker played his final game that day, but the fighting spirit (that he had shown all year was kept alive throughout the season by the remaining 15 players. Saddened and weakened by his loss the team never theless dug down harder titan ever to show the people of Hertford that they could produce . a winning team. From that day on their record speaks for itself. Five victories and two de feats. Now their aenann is nvcr and their suits have been laid away for another I war. A their eoa. I hav'amm;- ciated the fine support given to them I hv the. wm, .rut Krmo w ,,.' year will find even better backing for a group of boys who deserve all that ; they might receive. I have been proud to be theiv coadh and have enjoyed working with this team. I have celebrated with them in victory and suffered their gloom in defeat. To these sixteen boys alone must go all the credit for a successful season. It has been ithcir hard work plus a fighting spirit that never once gave in -which makes me feetfoud to be called their coach. kj&ejr-is off once more to as gallant a band of high school foot ball players that it has ever been my pleasure to know. A salute to you, the. football team of Perquimans High the Town of Hertford should be proud of you. Margaret Broughton has been sick at her home on Church Street for the past week.
