The year's highlight was the'Tandango" with Dons and Donettes dancing to tuneful Rhythms. In Forsensics the Gavel furnished the usual high quality of Debating excellence. On the field soccer, tennis and golf held sway. With option system prevailing, soph prexy Edward Moran staged a "soph drag" Sine Quod non, while the second- yearmen ever consistent lost the "brawl" in which as fresh­ men they had been soundly trounced. Bob Moore led the now mature juniors into the lime­ light of student endeavour, for on the platform Charles Scully took the Y.M.I. Oratorical Medal while classmate Edward Heavey was adjudged the best speaker of those in the McKinley Debate. It was at Devonshire that one and all beheld a "prom" the like of which never was witnessed before. Orders for "senior years" came thick and fast as the last days of the third came to a close. Charles Scully was elected to lead the class of '37 in its final year which while it was part of many successes and accomplishments still suffered immeasurable loss by the deaths of Roy O'Farrell and Bob Moore, two who had served most ably and most well until their fatal days. In the McKinley Debate again the honors went to the class of '37 with Charles Scully best speaker. [13] Seniors JOSEPH LEO BROYER Unrestricted; Block Club 4; PAUL A.

  • Players – Terry Hibbitt – a Wayward Genius
    Players – Terry Hibbitt – A wayward genius Terry Hibbitt‘s impressive entrance into senior football hinted that he could be one of the most glorious talents to emerge from Leeds United‘s golden generation of the Sixties. He was given his first team debut as an 18-year-old against Nottingham Forest on 19 February 1966, coming on as a first half substitute for Paul Madeley. Within minutes of taking the field Hibbitt scored a stunning goal, lobbing goalkeeper Peter Grummitt from 20 yards. For the next three years the talented left winger continued to show rich potential whenever given an opportunity by Don Revie, but he disappeared into the cul-de-sac of reserve team football after the talented Eddie Gray established himself as Revie‘s preferred choice on the left flank. A £30,000 transfer to Newcastle United in 1971 gave Hibbitt the chance of reviving his career, and he used the platform to give clear evidence of his prowess in a playmaking role. Hibbitt‘s younger brother Ken, born on 3 January 1951 and an England Under-23 cap, also enjoyed a long and successful professional career, mainly at Wolves (1968-84), with spells at Bradford Park Avenue, Seattle Sounders, Coventry City and Bristol Rovers. Frail of build and bandy of leg, Terry Hibbitt did not have a classic athlete‘s build, but he was an outstanding midfielder, playing cultured and intelligent football. He possessed a great range of passing skills and an instinctive feel for the through ball which benefited Malcolm Macdonald among others. Toon midfield colleague Terry McDermott: ―Hibby had a left foot that was like a magic wand.

  • Matches – 8 May 1972 – Wolves 2 Leeds United 1
    Matches – 8 May 1972 – Wolves 2 Leeds United 1 First Division – Molineux – 53,379 Scorers: Bremner Wolverhampton Wanderers: Parkes, Shaw, Taylor, Hegan, Munro, McAlle, McCalliog, Hibbitt, Richards, Dougan, Wagstaffe Leeds United: Harvey, Reaney, Madeley, Bremner, Charlton, Hunter, Lorimer, Clarke (Yorath), Bates, Giles, E Gray On the evening of Monday, 8 May, 1972, Leeds United faced a date with destiny: their season climaxed with an outstanding opportunity of becoming League champions for the second time in three years. The title would be theirs should they avoid defeat at Molineux against Wolves. Mathematically, a draw might allow Liverpool to finish above them by virtue of goal average, but the Merseysiders would require an 11-0 victory against Arsenal at Highbury, and such results were the stuff of fantasy. If Leeds lost, a Liverpool victory The Times of 8 May 1972 previews United's title-decider at Molineux would see them win the title. Table topping Derby County would be champions if the Reds failed to win. United‟s mood had been boosted by their victory in the FA Cup final against Arsenal two days earlier; on the other hand they had been denied the chance of rest and recuperation, travelling by coach to the Mount Hotel in Wolverhampton immediately following the final, without even attending the post-match banquet. There were some who would have preferred to celebrate, Norman Hunter for one: “What the gaffer should have done is let us go out and get absolutely smashed. We‟d have gone in the stream room on Sunday and been fine by Monday.” Describing the match as “the most important we have faced since our return to the First Division”, Don Revie promised that United would not go into the game with a defensive mindset.

You probably know by now, the Football Association has cancelled all football below National League level, that is from Step 3 of non-league football. All matches for the 2019/20 season will be made void, there will be no promotion and no relegation and the planned re-structuring of Step 5 (Western League Premier level) will be deferred until 2021/22. This will no doubt seem very unfair to some clubs especially Bradford Town and Plymouth Parkway, both looking forward to promotion this season, but honestly what else could the FA do? Perhaps a bit more surprisingly at our level, Somerset FA have also voided the 2019/20 walking football season and will award no championships and medals. This is strange because every team has played an equal number of matches and with no home and away fixtures, why not simply let the current position stand as the final one? The GFA have yet to announce what will happen to their Over 70s league, but we assume it will be the same. Somerset FA are already taking entries for next season and we will be entering two Over 60s teams. However, we will need another manager to look after this team. Anyone interested please let me know. You may not have noticed, but there are two unused goals in the equipment area of the AJN Stadium.

  • Players – Mike O'grady – Knife Through Butter
    Players – Mike O’Grady – Knife through butter After Albert Johanneson’s sad loss of confidence and form following a dismal performance in the 1965 FA Cup final, fleet footed winger Mike O’Grady was the man who took on the baton of providing the flamboyance for Don Revie’s Leeds United side of the late Sixties. Revie had to find £30,000 in October 1965 to sign O’Grady from Huddersfield Town, but United could have had him for nothing. They allowed the Leeds- born wide man to slip through their scouting net and sign for the Terriers when he left school six years earlier after representing Leeds Schoolboys. That was a rare lapse for a youth scheme that was renowned for its success in unearthing future diamonds. O’Grady was a winger of the traditional school, though at 5ft 10 he was taller than the stereotypical outside man. He could play on either flank, and had the happy knack of being able to drift in off the wing to contribute the odd goal, mostly with powerful drives from the edge of the area. Andrew Mourant: “In full flight, Mike O’Grady cut an impressive figure as a winger ... athletic with excellent balance.
