Sabre was disappointing all season long, the Arvanites Trophy notwithstanding, and the departure of Manuel Cabral and Mike Woolf will be felt in the future. Sophomores Jon Piel, Lajos Heder, and Bob Whallon will form the nucleus of next winter's sabre squad, aided by freshman captain Graham Still-wagon...
...these privileges were not enough for the ambitious class of '37, whose members petitioned for the right to choose their hours of return.

Marching along squarely behind their majorettes were two girls supporting a felt banner boasting the words, figured in fuchsia on a green field, "Roxville Junior Marching Band and Music Team." And directly behind them came the marching band and music team in its full strength, playing a lilting interpretation of "McNamara's band...
