BULKELEY NEWS 29 ATMLDTIGS OINCE the last num- her of the News made its appearance, no athletic events of any great import have taken place at Bulkel-ey. Lack of grounds on which to 'day, and New London’s unwillingness to help us out of our difficulty made a school baseball team quite impossible. Bu in spite of all this the past athletic vear has been one of the most notable in the history of the school. So worthy has it been that a review of our athletic accomplishments is altogether proper. Perhaps that part of our athletic activities which stands out most prominently is the work of our grand little football team of last fall. Nine games were played, and of Football these four were won, two were tied, and three were lost. Not much of a record, you say? But before you make a iv remarks on that subject, just take into consideration the teams Bulkeley faced. The four games won were the games with Meriden H. S., ( score 39-0 ), Stonington H. S., (score 53-0), Bridgeport H. S., (score 55-0), and Norwich Free Academy, (score 14-0) The tied games were with the Bulkeley Alumni team, and Norwich Free Academy; no scores were made in either game. Storrs College, New Britain H. S., and Stamford H. S. defeated us by the respective scores of 23-0, 10-0, and 26-6. These last three teams, it might be noted, were three of the fastest teams in the State. Storrs College is far above our class; New Britain is one of the claimants of the State championship; and Stamford claims the championship of Connecticut and New York State, saying that Bulkeley is the first high school team to score on them in several seasons. Most of the teams that faced Bulkeley were supported by schools several times larger than ours. As remarked before, Storrs College is not in our class. Meriden High School is a-bout five times the size of Bulkeley. New Britain High School’s graduating class is about as large as our entire school. Bridgeport High School and Stamford High School are in much the same position. Stonington High School is more in our class. But in spite of these facts, Meriden, Bridgeport, Norwich, and Stonington were all defeated by heavy scores. New Britain, too, would have suffered a similar fate, had the Bulkeley men been given Cap . Leary Louis A. McCoy Coach
