With the advent of the season of good cheer, “The News, makes its intrusion into the hearts and affections of the students and the host of friends of Bulkeley School, and in so doing, once more expresses a feeling of elation at the successes and achievments under the banner of orange and black since the previous issue of “ The News. Though the present school year is yet young, we can rejoice, and take pardonable pride perhaps, in one accomplishment thus far, and that is the demonstration of supremacy over our old time rival, N. F. A., on the gridiron and at this juncture, may wf not find food for reflective thought. As we 2 BULKELEY NEWS revert over the long line of athletic achievments accredited to the sons of our dear old Alma Mater, the vast majority of whom have since taken their places in life’s arena of activities, with honors redounding in no small measure to the cherished name of Bulkeley, we are conscious of emotions of love and joyalty for the school that has for so long a time stood for the cause of higher education in this community. And dwelling most particularly in thought upon the reason for our single successes along the lines of athletic endeavor, we are forcibly impressed with the outstanding fact that the candidates chosen were in all cases most eminently qualified and equipped to uphold the honor and glory of our Alma Mater, in the judgment of impartial admirers of all things pertaining to Bulkeley, actuated with the single purpose of assisting Bulkeley to obtain the best results from the material under the colors of her banner. That such a policy will always prevail at Bulkeley, is the hope of “ The News ” and all true friends of Bulkeley as well. A student may be ever so popular with the members of his fraternity, or on the other hand, he may not be affiliated with any society, and yet withal, his superior fitness for a place that demands the best that can be produced to promote the best interests and honors of his school and school-fellows, may be so assertive as to merit recognition. This principle should not be lost sight of, for it is what contributed so largely to the glory of Bulkeley in the past, and will, we firmly believe, continue to add lustre to all future efforts of the students of Bulkeley School. The year 1911 has nearly spent its course. No doubt, with the most of us it has not been very much unlike those that preceded it. A few short months ago the year was young, and the work outlined by us to do was in all probability extensive. If we have fallen short in the consumnation of many of our hopes and plans, let us not falter, but ere the year that is fast ebbing away finds a place only in our memory, let us arouse ourselves to newer and stronger resolutions with sufficient determination to accomplish fulfillment. With such aims to guide us we will reap inestimable good from our course at Bulkeley School, and reflect honor and credit alike upon ourselves and the school that we are indeed fortunate in being enrolled in. BULKELEY NEWS 3 “t Liddleton’s Yellow Streak-” There was something about Richard Middleton which appealed to all his classmates. He was a generous, kind, strong, young man, an all round athlete and strictly above board. No one ever heard of his having done a mean thing. But there was something about him which seemed entirely out of place and most unnatural. He was trying out for the football team. He was a good enough player, swift, quick, intelligent, and strong, but he seemed to be afraid. If anyone came to tackle him on his right side it was alright but the minute he saw anyone approach from the left he flinched. He even went so far as to drop to the ground and shout “ Down ” on one such occasion. This action was the subject of much comment among his fellows and it was finally decided that he had a yellow streak. Time wore on. His friends spoke to him frankly about his peculiar actions and warned him but he merely shook his head and smiled a smile in which could be read words of suJering and which showed that there was a painful secret behind those firmly set lips. This smile was still more unexplainable. His friends felt sorry for him but realized they could do no good. When the team was picked Middleton was not one of their number. Yet the coaches realized that his miraculous speed in a clear field, his quickness in dodging, and the firm strong opposition which he sometimes manifested were not to be neglected. Consequently he was chosen as a “sub.” The football season wore on. Games had been lost and won. On two occassions Middleton had been tried, but his fear was very evident. Once when a man came against the man who was rushing the ball and Middleton was giving the rusher interference, because the man came from the left, Middleton did not knock him away, but let him pass and he tackled the man. This made some of the students disgusted with him, but he was not taken from the team. By and by came the day of the great game. A neighboring college had de-feited them year in and year out for many years. This year they would only agree to play one game with the school. The school wished very badly to win this game and they put in their best men. But the first period ended with the score of 5 to 0 in favor of the opposing college. In the second period they still were ahead with the score of 1 1 to 0. They had played most of their strongest bulwarks. Middleton was on the field in uniform but 4 BULKELEY NEWS he had not been called in. He heard many unpleasant comments about himself but he merely smiled, a mournful little enigmatical smile and walked o.i. Bit the impression of the smile remained and people wondered. At the end of the third period they had lost all their good men. They had played their hardest during that period and had managed to keep their opponents from scoring. But their strength was gone. The best man remaining had just, been carried senseless from the field. Middletown was the only remaining sub. As he walked out in the fourth period and took up his position as right half back, every one groaned. But Middleton merely sm led again in the same way which again set the audience to wondering. The period started off with a full back charge into the line, the ball being with Middletons side. About two yards were gained and then followed an end round run by the left half, on this run the school lost by 3 yards, his left 1 1 yards to go on the last down. The quarter-back reluctanly called Middleton s number. He ran foreward received the ball in his left arm and started around left end. Deep into the sod he dug his cleats. Round the end he spun in a great detour. His interference had been left behind. Three men lay between him and the goal. The first came at him on the right. He received the full force of Middleton’s right arm and spun around landing flat on the ground. The next made a great rush for Middleton from the left. Middleton stopped, flinched, hesitated but only for a second, his jaws snapped together his eyes sparkled, that smile appeared again upon his face. He started again. The groaning of the crowd changed to cheers and encouraging, even beseeching words. His opponent was upon him; he felt himself grasped by the shoulders. His cheeks paled, he ground his teeth and then, like, a mighty lion, he roared and with a great effort he shook his opponent from his mighty shoulders. He leaped forward .and was once again started down the field. The quarter back was about a yard in front of the goal line. He ran straight for him, ,then, directly in front of him, he doubled up, straightened up and shot between the quarter back’s legs, his hands placing the ball over the goal line immediately, amid the ringing cheers of the audience, the goal was kicked making the score, II to 6. The rest of the game the quarter back worked Middleton and the fullback for another touch down and another goal. And the game ended with a score of 1 2 to I I in favor of Middleton’s school. As soon as the referee’s whistle blew Middleton, whose face had been blanched from the moment of his encounter with the man whom he shook from his shoulders dropped to the ground. BULKELEY NEWS 5 A week later, as his school mates filed in to see him, the doctor told them this story, “ Middleton was in a wreck on the rail-road shortly before he came here. His collar-bone was broken. It had just started to mend when he came. But he tore away the sling that held his arm and asked me not to let anyone know of the injury because he wanted to play football and knew that he could not if his wound was discovered. But the wound was very painful ahd he often shyed away from anyone whom he thought would touch it. In this way he acquired the reputation of a yellow streak, but he managed to keep with the team. Last Saturday the bone was dislodged and he played half the last quarter with it in that condition. It has been reset and he will be with you again soon. ” They looked at one another, unable at once, to realize the extent of the speech. Then they looked at the doctor, then at Middleton. He smiled at them, told them that what the doctor said was true and would have conversed with them more but the doctor said that he must sleep. They all tip-toed out and when they reached the outside gave a cheer for him. Everyone at the school that day heard the story and every one said the same thing. “ He’s a brick. ” A Srram. It was on a bench this summer We two sat on the sand I will always remember She softly held my -- umbrella We did not hurry homeward. For we dearly love the place. She had a box of Crammatte’s, And my hand stole around her -- Ahem The summer sun was sinking Ye Gods ! What joyful bliss. 1 loved this darling madly, So I stole a little -- bon-bon. ‘ ‘ ‘CAe Ocean freeze. 6 BULKELEY NEWS J hr dJmja attii (ftlarnna nf the ©rater. T was on a Monday morning; We assembled at the school. Every one was shivering, The place was very cool. There was no fire in the heater. Our dear friend could not heat. What will happen now? said one. Shivering in his seat. I II bet we have short periods And leave at twelve o’clock.' A quite possible result. But to our seats we flock. Mr. Towne called us to order; A surprise he had for all. We didn’t have short periods; His words 1 here recall. You ve all perceived the coldness here, “The heater will not heat, And under these conditions Who can keep you in your seat? “But I’ll dismiss you readily, We ll not have school to-day; For since the heater will not heat Tis too cold for you to stay. But 1 and the heater are old friends. Its illness grieves me sore. That while I stand here well and strong, For you're two hundred strong. BULKELEY NEWS 7 “So for my comrade I will pray That its illness won't be long, But do not pray against me. For you're two hundred strong. “Tomorrow 1 hope to see you In this room to-day so cold, And 1 hope you'll have forgiveness For the heater, so very old. “But here's a pretty little song, To a tune you all know well, “Sing to the Heater’’ is its name Sing it ere I ring the bell.” Delighted we were to hear it And sang with all our might, And then marched out from the school-room, With hearts so very light. Outside again we sang the song, A cheer for the heater we gave, Then happily homeward we did go, Our precious vacation hours to save. Our happiness was unbounded, We had a joyful day; And to lengthen this vacation, We didn't do a thing but pray. Next day the room was cold again. Our prayers were answered; true We would have no school that day, The heater'd blown out a flue. Homeward again we went rejoicing. In idling another day was spent. And when that night we went to bed. Our prayers to God again we sent. And again our prayers were answerd Before sorrow we beheld. For on the next day after. School was kept again; And Mr. Belcher came around; Then started our lingering pain. Oh! Woe to the heater! Terrible Monster! Brin er of heart rending pain and woes. 8 BULKELEY NEWS Woe to the heater! Dragon of evil. Numbered among our most terrible foes. Much do we suffer for three weeks and days. On account of its evil caprices and ways. Torture unbearable caused by your madness, Expense and vexation follow our gladness. So if the heater breaks down and will heat you no more. Don’t cheer and jump up and down on the floor; But pray for recovery as soon as you may, And that you will suffer from no long delay. This warning I give you for you may be sure, Pleasure comes before grief which you cannot endure ; Now lest a great debt of lost time you must pay, You should never against your principal pray.

The News wishes to announce that the following “ daffies were not contributed by Tad of the N. Y. Journal but by “ Midge ” of a local sheet: — The sun was fast sinking over Cannonball Park late in the afternoon of the Academy-Bulke'.ey football game, 6 - 6 stood the score. “ Last down ! came the cry. Tne husky linesman of the Orange Black crouched expectantly. Everyone knew that Bulkeley needed but two yards for a touchdown. All waited breathless for the usual rattle of signal, while Keefe the littla quarter back took his accustomed position. His shrill words were heard all over the field : — “ If Mr. Edgerton is fickle is Mr. McCoy ? SARAH !!! Turn on more heat! The senior shorthand class were displaying their ignorance in that branch of education before Prof. Brubeck in No. 3. It was a particularly dull morning, and small Conant was sent to the board to air his knowledge on final hooks, etc. He stood there twirling the chalk for about five minutes and then suddenly astonished his classmates by piping — “ If Caesar can swim, can Cicero ? ” YOUNG MAN !!! That II cost you 10 demerits! The B. S. Orchestra had just rendered a most brilliant program for their annual concert at the Lyceum. The theatre had the S. R. O. sign displayed, and one and all, young and old, cheered themselves hoarse over the youthful prodigies, at last came cries for the leader. Troland, modest and BULKELEY NEWS smiling stepped before the curtain to express his thanks to the excited audience. At once the noise subsided. You could have heard a pin drop when the great leader solemnly asked : — “ If a drumhead is skin, is a trombone ? MR. CITY ! ! ! I wish to report this boy ! It was this way — etc., etc. Among the men who live before their time must be numbered Holland-ersky for he has found a way, mirabile dictu, to talk for half the hour and still say nothing. May’s recent trip to England has so effected his speech that he said in Latin the other day, “He pulled up the blooming tree. ” Shut your eyes, draw an egg, and with your eyes still closed write the alphabet, one letter over the other inside the egg, then draw a cow and a pig over that, make some grass, shrubery, and trees growing around on the egg, then open your eyes and look at it. It will look about like the geometry figure Small put on the board the other day. Health Hint: — Persons to serious to take a joke should take a vacation. There is one thing we ought to get together and form and that is a dramatic club. Among the students abundant talent can be secured to stage a play. The organizing of such a club would mean a great deal tp the students. It would afford excellent opportunities too. There has been much talk of late, among the student body as to the forming of a Glee Club. If such a club were formed, it would undoubtedly be a great boost for the school. If enough enthusiasum is shown the prospects of a club might be considered. 16 BULKELEY NEWS If all suggestions that are being made, are carried out, Bulkeley’s most successful social season will be the year 191 I — 1912. On November 6 th, Theta Sigma Fraternity gave a barn dance at Quaker Hill. The trip was made in a large buss. Except for the rain, the affair was a great success. Phi Alpha Mu Sigma have held many social functions thus far. The Norwich chapter has entertained the New London Chapter twice this season. The Football team was invited to attend the annual foot-ball dance in Norwich. It was to be held the night'of the Bulkeley, N. F. A. football game. Although the game was postponed on account of rain the dance wa; held. Several from Bulkeley attended and came home with very favorable reports of the affair. The Theta Sigma Fraternity gave a dance in Lyric Hall Friday December First. The hall was very appropriately decorated for the occassion. The patronesses were, Mrs. W. A. Towne, Mrs. C. D.Parkhurst, Mrs. N. M. Keeney, Mrs. A. B. Belcher, Mrs. C. E. Foley, Mrs. W. E. Costello, Mrs. E. L. Barr, Mrs. C. L. Culver Mrs. Arthur T. Keefe. The Phi Alphia Mu Signa Dance in Norwich occurred on the same night. Senior Class will hold a dance in Lyric Hall on Decemper 22. The following committee was chosen, Crowley, Huntley, Payer, Keeney, Bixler. A very large attendance is expected. BULKELEY NEWS 17 Early in September Capt. Costello called for candidates for the foot-ball team. Many of the veterans of last years team responded to the call. Coach L. McCoy was on hand and under his able instructions Bulkeley was represented on the gridiron by one of the fastest teams ever put out. Uulkelfg--HHniilfam. With about three weeks practice the Bulkeley team traveled to Williman-tic to play the Windham High School. The game was played with great enthusiam. Considering the team Bulkeley was against they played a very ineffective game due to lack of practice. Flaherty was sent over for a touchdown. Selikowitch broke through the line and made a safety. Bulkeley 8, Windham 0. fBulkrlry-JInmfrrt. On October 21st, the Bulkeley football team journeyed to Pomfretand suffered its only defeat of the season. The day was wet and raw and when the game started most of the players were frozen. Bulkeley showed more team work than Pomfret but they were completely outclassed by weight. Bulkeley was on the defense all the time. When the game ended the score was 28 to 0. InlkrUy-iUinMiam. Bulkeley piled up a larger score in the second game with Windham. Windham showed lack of team work, while on the other hand Bulkeley was the shining light. When the timer’s whistle sounded the score was 44 to 0. 18 BULKELEY NEWS «itUt ltg 3- A. On November 4th, amid loud cheering, N. F. A. went down to defeat before the strong Bullceley eleven. N. F. A. started off as a sure winner, kicking off to Bulkeley.

McCormick missed the goal, score: Bulkeley 0, N, F. A. 5. No other score was made in the 1 st period. The second period started with Flaherty making a beautiful kick. With an exchange of punts it was Bulkeley s ball on her own 45 yard line. Bucking by the backs and a sensational run by Donnelly for 50 yards put the ball on N. F. A. 10 yard line. From here the ball was carried over for Bulkeley’s first touch down. Keefe punted out. Flaherty kicking the goal. Score, Bulkeley 6, N. F. A. 5 The next period started with Bulkeley kicking off to N.

Never before on a gridiron did a Bulkeley team fight so fiercely. The only chance Bulkeley had of scoring was after a blocked punt. The game ended with the ball in Norwich territory.
