Form Plaque: 1943

 

The following description was written by John Gregory Wiggins in the Spring 1947 edition of the Alumni Horae:

The two small shields commemorate an 11-4 victory over St. Mark’s in hockey and a track team which won all its meets. The large shield reminds us of the renewed interest in boxing, and the championship belt given by Dr. Charles Hart, and the sweeping victory of the Shattucks at Long Pond. The “supports” of this shield show an S.P.S. football player with a hoe, bringing to mind the agricultural pursuits of the teams during the year, and a Harvard hockey player, as S.P.S. had four men on the Harvard Varsity during this season.
