6 BULKELEY NEWS The Academy had no regular team for B. S. to trim. However an Independent Team from the up river school was played and badly defeated. Capt. “Mickey” Shea had ample revenge on Capt. “Jack” Gallivati for the events of Nov. 20, 1909. The largest crowd of the season was present to see the “ fireworks.” Score 29-12. The second game of the series and with it the city championship was won from the Training School Team. This was a very rough and fiercely fought contest. Bulkeley had better team work and a better eye for the basket than the M. T. S. boys. At the end of the first halt the Orange and Black was ahead. The good work was kept up through the second period Training never being dangerous. Noble, Shea and McGinley were the stars of the contest. Score 34-22. Lineup and Summary Bulkeley M. T. S. Troland right forward Fitzpatrick Arnold left forward Newbury Noble centre Needham McGinley right guard Ricker Shea, Beebe left guard Weeks Field goals: Noble 6, Arnold 5. Shea 2, Troland 1, Beebe 1, Needham 3, Fitzpatrick 2, Newbury 1, Ricker 1. Fouls: Fitzpatrick 8, Troland 4. Lawrence J. McGinley, right guard on this year’s team and a very heady player, was elected captain for 1910-1911. The Track Meet was held on March 8th for the first time in two years. It was a grand success and Manager Beebe may well be proud of his work. The student body and the faculty are also to be to thanked for their hearty co-operation. The records of the last meet were shattered beyond recognition. Noble ’10 was the star of the evening, making the most individual points, and enabling his class to win the meet.

HE Basket Ball season, which has been quite successful • is at an end. In every one of the games played, Bulk-eley’s team work and passing surpassed that of their opponents. The Orange and Black however showed an inability to shoot, that should be corrected in future teams. This fact was strongly illustrated in the first Windham game, for if our boys had caged even half their shots we would have won. Both of the Windham games were won by our opponents. In the first game played at Williinantic, Bulkeley’s shooting was poor. The slippery condition of the floor may have had something to do with that. Noble played the best game for the Orange and Black, while Burns starred for the victors. Score, 53-20. The second game with Windham was played at home and was a hotly fought contest. Bulkeley’s team work was excellent and the shooting, although better than that of the first game was a little off color. At the end of the first half Bulkeley lead. Score 11-9. In the second period Windham played harder, making four field and one foul goal. In the same period Bulkeley made two points on free tries. Thus Windham won the second game and the championship. Score, 18-13.
