FACULTY 10 Dttortal THROUGH the efforts of the editors and associates of the past years the Bulkeley News has attained a high standard of merit. The Acropolis, one of our best exchanges, informed us last year, that they had put the News at the top of their list of exchanges, not because of the alphabet, but because of the quality of the News in general. Now the aim of the staff this year is not only to maintain this standard of merit but to better it. This cannot be done without the aid of the whole school. A successful school paper needs the co-operation of every member of the student body and of the faculty, not financially, but in those things which are the result of concentrated thought directed at the right subject. In other words the staff literally needs your literary aid. A school paper with good stories and poems will make a paying proposition and may also develop a hidden genius who has a literary turn of mind. One may not always show his spirit by representing the school on the athletic field but he can show it in the literary field. This is what the editors want. Everyone concerned (and you, the student body, are primarily concerned), wants a good school paper. This is what makes a good school paper. 4 BULKELEY NEWS The different classes should go into this project with an antagonistic spirit, and contest with each other for the supremacy in this so-called literary field. And then we are sure that the faculty has talent. And although we know their time is valuable, we hope they will, in their spare moments, write a few lines of poetry or prose. With the faculty acting as leaders in this movement, the students are bound to follow their example, and if they do we are sure to have a successful school paper, one that the school may be proud of. «. w iftu i ■ r i 3.1 i S • • 1 •• • i 1 � Si) ■ ' r - .■ ■ .,1 t ; ' .

They were standing at the head of the basement stairs and as I turned the corner I heard one of them say, “Well, then, do it for Bulkeley.” Somehow that statement ‘‘Do it for Bulkeley” kept ringing in my ears and I thought the boy who said it had struck on to what might be a most appropriate motto for all of us. I’ve thought about the motto and I’ve wondered if at first hearing we fully realize all it may mean. In the first place the verb “do” implies activity. We might say “Be active for our school”, or “Be a live wire in our school.” To observe the motto then, every boy must strive to further the interests of the school in every way possible instead of standing back and letting others “do” it. Now the question is—what can we do? We can’t all play football to help the school to its position as champion of Eastern Connecticut, nor can all of us play base-ball, however much we may wish to. But—we can all better scholarship in the ordinary routine of our daily school work. This is something that is in the power of every boy—if scholarship is low, we can raise it,—if high, we can at least maintain it. By so doing we can thus raise the standard of the school and its rank among other schools. Secondly, we can support the various school activities. For instance, we have the nucleus of a dramatic club. With the support and encouragement of the boys, the club might produce something of both dramatic and pecuniary value. We also have an eager group of music makers who are only waiting a little encouragement. Then, that football team of ours— have we supported it as eagerly as we could? Have we attended the games given by our plucky second team and cheered them as often as possible? Lastly, there are certain evils which the authorities, no matter how strong, cannot correct. These evils are too individual to be summarized but must be realized, recognized and corrected by each fellow as he knows he is at fault. These are the things that may be done and what are the things that have been done? The scholarship of the school is high. That is our biggest accomplishment. Indeed it may be favorably compared with any other. Let’s make it superior to any! Let's do everything for the credit of our school and nothing to its discredit. Support each other, and Do It For Bulkeley. —Miss C. Jordan BULKELEY NEWS Bulkeley High Old Bulkeley famed for her Knowledge Halls Sits crowned with her many years While proudly waving her old flag falls Bathed in her country ’s tears. She lifts her square gray towers on high Where the song birds pierce the blue She sits like a queen ’neath the summer sky Ruling boys that are brave and true. Green as the emerald is her quad Fresh with the dew and bright Where her fellows gather in singles and squad Noisily into the night. Here the footbatl team for many a year Has planned its well played game. Here the fellows practice with lusty cheer The good old Bulkeley name. Long lines of boys pass through the doors On pleasant mild Septembers And outward o’er its oaken floors The class in June remembers. BULKELEY NEWS 7 How all the year the rooms have rung With shout and lusty cheer, And many a parting song been sung Around the busy year. Oh boyhood love the old gray walls Your fathers loved before you. Cling as the ivy to her halls Of learning high above you. Yours is a record fair and clean. Long as the years roll by You scorn the thing that is low and mean And Truth you raise on high. So glory be to her faith today And praise for her magic lore. Oh may she sit as a queen for aye And rule her years by the score. Be proud to be known as a Bulkeley Grad Be proud of her very fame For the quad and the squad and the old bronze slab Are bearing an honored name. —HENRY W. WINSLOW. 8 BULKKLEY NEWS On With the Dance! A H! Clearly do I remember the details of that horrible episode. It shall evermore remain a source of much embarassment. Yes,—it was at one of those socials —you know,—where you dance on a rug to the melodious strains of a phonograph. I had danced before, but I still felt cold chills slide down my backbone while slipping gently off my paatner’s newly polished pumps,—so you see I was still new at the game. I stayed out the first dance, and when the mechanical agony ran down the dance came to a lingering close. A friend reading my mind came over to me and bending low he whispered: “I had a good dancer, she was leading me!” She was just the kind of a dancer I wanted, so, the next dance found me in the gentle embrace of this fair maiden. Something must have been the matter for right on the kick-off, she rush- ed me for five yards. My friends were cheering loudly on the side lines. On opening my mouth—preparatory to hearty laughter,—a wandering strand of my partner’s golden hair found its way into my mouth, and fastening itself to a piece of gum which I was chewing vigorously at the time, it whisked out again. Agony! The dance stopped and the gum still retained its hold. Smilingly I informed the girl that something had fastened itself in her hair and as a gentleman I considered it my duty to remove that mysterious something. So giving the gum a sudden jerk, which was accompanied by a loud shriek from my partner, it came off, also a few strands of this golden hair (which was dark brown at the roots). I excused myself and again endeavored to make the most of the even-' ing, though feeling a bit breathless from the hair racking experience. BULKELEY NEWS 9 Number One M’Kensie. “Number One McKensie” was as selfish as could be, He had no use for number two and less for number three, “McKensie for McKensie—on the job for number one”. Was the way the fellow put it and the way his life was run. No sentiment could sway him to assist a fellow man, He asked no aid and gave none, in accordance with his plan. HE thought that ev’ry mortal who had fallen in the game Had no one in existence but his falling self to blame. The “milk of human kindness stuff” was tommyrot to Bill, He never helped a living soul, and said, “I never will!” He scorned that goodly doctrine, “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” And if he had emotions they were hidden on a shelf. He snickered at the motto “One for all and all for one”. HE wouldn’t share a farthing with a single mother’s son. To aid a helpless cripple or a worthy soul in need Would violate the theory of Bill McKenzie’s creed. A man of selfish purposes, he lived his life alone, Unmindful of fellows, with a heart as hard as stone. But through it all he lived his mean existence on the square He never stole a penny and he played the innings fair. As honest as the day is long, he didn’t crave for pelf, He labored hard and honestly, but labored for himself. He never envied others who had prospered on the way,— “Let ’em get it,—I won’t worry—that’s their privilege,” he’d say. “if a fellow misses chances and has fallen on the way in the line Or has made a hundred thousand—that’s his business, not mine. Appreciation lasts until your turn is due, and then You’ll find how much of charity is in your fellow men. The man whom you’ve assisted to the light from depths of shade Will refuse you on the morrow if you go to him for aid. I’ve lived for thirty summers, and I’ve seen it often done- Convincing me it’s logical to live for number one. —A. Nausbam. 10 BULKELEY NEWS Don’t you wish you knew ? If Henkle Sweet Scott was ever in Willimantic? Whether Red Sistare thinks he is Napolean? How to get 99% for a monthly average without studying? Whether Polinsky is in mourning when he wears purple socks or whether he has African tendencies? If Karl Kuester is a relative of the late Crown Prince? Who ties Mr. Phillips’ cute little bow tie? Who the Squealer is? If it is to hide a dirty shirt that “Beans” wears a black sweater continually? If McConnell’s perfect French accent is a result of Juicy Fruit ? Whether Round is always Square with the teachers ? Whether Fitch is funny ? How Greenblatt gets that way ? Whether Eugene B. Lawrence Jr., still carries handcuffs and a revolver with him as a protection against the wild women of his acquaintance ? How N. F. A. got their lone goal on November 22, 1919 ? (Ask Connors, he knows). Whether it is true that Tom Cassara is selling photos of himself for ten cents a piece ? Whether Meech is a secret agent for some Bolshevist’s tonsorial parlors? Where Prof. Lawrence keeps the H20 ? When the next issue of the “News” is coming out? Who the writer of this is? ? BULKELEY NEWS 11 Squeals by the Squealer LET IT BE KNOWN that since the football season has been completed all members of the team should once more resume the commonplace responsibilities of the ordinary students, those of refraining from their regular twelve o'clock smoke and of arriving in time for the morning prayer instead of continuing on the 9.30 schedule. Of two evils the lesser is by far the better choice so why do some students persist in returning their report cards a week late ? Is parental retribution more gently administered at the later date ? Believe me, boys, it never is ! So why not return them within the prescribed period without the customary five thrown in ? The freshmen have become so absent-minded that they do their algebra on the walls downstairs. Why didn’t Nelson change his position sooner? If he did, the football team would have been able to run both faster and longer. The annual freshman vocation was not enjoyed this year as formerly. The fact however, is viewed with indifference by members of said class. This indifference is attributed by many to lack of spirit but it is more likely the sagacily of their young minds which induces them to remain in the study hall until 1.30. Why doesn’t the musical talent take more interest in the school orchestra ? Why do the freshmen wipe their hands on the Seniors backs as they come upstairs from recess ? Who doesn’t like our new faculty ? 12 BULKELEY NEWS Why don’t we have singing in the morning like we did last year? It sort of cuts down the Seniors’ math, period. It will perhaps be noticed by the older classmen that the gymnasium has been removed during the summer vacation. This wonderful apparatus, the joy of freshmen, has at last disappeared beneath the strong hand of Father Time. It has possibly been decided by the trustees that our stomachs demand more attention than the rest of us (head excluded) and have therefor authorized Mr. Marion to establish a lunch counter in place of the beloved exerciser. It seems that the freshmen are still inoculated with that spirit of grammar school childishness, so common to all freshmen. Evidently the Sophs have failed in their duty. The customary rite of baptizing them with H20 has been sadly neglected. Oh that even a class of Sophs should turn out so ! The school certainly has to be congratulated on the way it responded to the call of the football team for sweaters. It evinced some of the best school spirit ever shown in Bulkeley—and that’s saying something. The students on the whole are very conscientious in realizing why the rubbish barrels were placed in the cellar. Why not have a few debates this year ? WThy are the Seniors so anxious to learn about anything that does not concern the chemistry lesson ? It is said that the Sophomores are working hard upon a new process of fermentation. By the time they are Seniors they expect to have turned the laboratory into a brewery. Oh happy days ! It is then that the trustees will have to bother their poor heads about erecting a building to accommodate the numberless P. G.’s. Why is there no telephone at school? Such a device would perhaps amuse the children during recess. If they keep on sending us such small sizes in Freshmen, a nursery bulkeley news 13 will have to be installed on the top floor. Where does Mclnnis eat his Sunday night supper ? Who presses Sistare’s pants? Why do some students always have to put their extra buttons in the football collections ? Don’t they ever go to church ? Why not a hockey team this year ? Who is always stealing either Howard’s or Whiton’s French book? Who is Di Biasi’s barber? What is the matter with that Football Dance Committee ? When are the Seniors going to pay class dues ? WHO IS 14 BULKELEY NEWS N SATURDAY MORNING, Oc- tober 4, 1919, the football squad met at school and elected Fred Fitch captain for the team this year. Bab bage who was elected captain last year, has left Bulkeley and now attends Suffield Academy. □ □ QVER FIFTY COUPLES attend-ed the dansant given by the Beta chapter of the Phi Alpha Mu Sigma fraternity of Bulkeley School on the evening of October 31, in the ballroom of the Crocker House. The hall was decorated with school and fraternity colors. Parents of the members and the faculty of the school acted as patrons and patronesses- The committee in charge were: T. Britton, F. Gannon, S. Brown, and J. Maclnnis. □ □ T) OOSEVELT’S BIRTHDAY commemorated at school b was by a most interesting program. The speakers and their subjects were as follows: Life of Theodore Roosevelt— P. Howard Roosevelt the Broncho Buster— R. Hancock Roosevelt as a Rough Rider— E. Whiton Poem, “To Theodore Roosevelt”— R. Rose Roosevelt the Sportsman— R. Stewart “America”— School Roosevelt the President— J. Lynn Roosevelt the Man the Kaiser Feared— F. Sistare The Strenuous Life— H. Murphy Roosevelt on The American Boy— S. Fitch □ 0 VN NOVEMBER 4, through the efforts of Mr. Bailey, Boys’ secretary of the Y. M. C. A., the school was rendered a fine musical entertainment by the “American Industrial Quartet.” Several songs were sung and Dr. Byron C. Piatt, one of BULKELEY NEWS 15 the singers, spoke to the boys concerning happiness. The students showed their appreciation by giving a rousing cheer for the entertainers and Mr. Bailey. □ b AT A MEETING of the Senior Class on November 18, the class held its election of officers for the year. The result as follows: President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer the voting was Harold Murphy Palmer Howard Frank Gannon Stuart Brown □ B Selection by school orchestra— Coronation March All of the actors showed exceptional skill and every number was received by the audience with rounds of hearty applause. The acting of Harold Murphy and E. Berger was the feature of the entertainment. This difficult scene, acted by all famous Shakespearean actors was handled by these two with wonderful ability. It showed skill rarely found in amateurs. Miss Jordan, Miss Zahn, and Mr. Harrison deserve praise for their work in coaching and promoting the performance. B E A PANORAMIC PICTURE of the student body was taken November 20, in front of the school. Afterwards a print was sent and the price of the picture which was $1.25. Several of the students bought pictures. B B ' pHE DAY BEFORE the Thanks-giving vacation was made most enjoyable to the students by an ex-celent program of singing, reading, and acting. The school orchestra also rendered several selections. The program was attractively arranged and presented as follows: Selection by trio from Bulkeley Orchestra. The First Thanksgiving E. Gipstein When the Frost is on the Pumpkin C. McEnaney Dramatic Reading J. Polinsky Similar Case E. Whiton Quarrel scene from “Julius Caeser” H. Murphy and E. Berger T THE FIRST period of school December 12, Prof. Towne explained to the pupils the financial condition of the football team, saying that owing to the fact that Plant Field was not fenced the receipts did not permit buying the sweaters and “B” for the players. However, in less than twenty minutes the students pledged $118.50 for the sweaters. This was an excellent example of the “Bulkeley Spirit” and proved that the fellows were behind their gridiron heroes. It was also announced at that time by Manager Britton that the following players had won the sweaters and the coveted “B” : J. Maclnnis, B. Bent, F. Fitch, L. Jimal, L. Farrell, W. Ryan, Q- Cas-sara, T. Cassara, T. Britton, J. McCarthy, C. Birmingham, H. Kiely, W. McCraw, P. Howard, M. Philips (coach). 16 BULKELEY NEWS Teacher—“Have you nothing to do ?” Rodinsky—“Absolutely nothing.” Teacher—“Well, you’re equal to it.” An Alumni was once asked if he knew Mr. Hooker. Oh yes,” was the reply, “Hook and I (eye) are old associates.” “Does your son play cards for money ?” “I don’t think so. But those who play with him do.” There was a piece of cold pudding on the lunch table and mamma divided it between Willie and Elsie. Willie looked at his mother’s empty plate. “Mamma,” he soid, eardestly. “I can’t enjoy my pudding when you haven’t any. Take Elsie’s.” Mother—“Why don’t you play with that Mclnnis boy any more?” Cassara—“ ’Cause he swore.” Mother—“Horrors! Did he?” Cassara—“Yes’m. He swore I stole his knife, and teacher made me give it back, and licked me besides.” A schoolmaster inquired of one of his pupils on a cold day in winter, what was the Latin word for “cold” “I can’t remember it at the moment,” said the boy, “but I have it at my finger ends.” Teacher—“How would you punctuate this sentence: ‘Miss Gray a beautiful young girl of seventeen walked down the street.’ ” Britton—“I would certainly make a dash after Miss Gray.” While inspecting an examination paper recently, a teacher found various humorous answers to questions. A class of boys averaging twelve years of age had been examined in geography. The previous day had been devoted to grammar. Among the geography questions was the follow-iug: “Name the zones.” One promising youth, who had mixed the two subjects, wrote: “There are two zones, masculine and feminine. The masculine is either temperate or intemperate ; the feminine is either torrid or frigid.” Ted once said to her: “Come with me and we shall go and live forever in the Land of Love and Soft Desire. At evening we shall walk together by the pools where the lilies grow that bring delectable dreams, and we shall watch the sun burn itself to death over the mountains whose valleys are older than the wrinkles in the moon. From the high windows of our castle we shall cast flowers into the purple lake below, and in the morning pluck new g: rlands, for winter shall never come to our enchanted land. Come with me, even now, come, for it is spring.” And as he spoke, she interrupted him to ask: “If all this is a proposal of marriage, BULKELEY NEWS 17 I want to know how much your salary is.” Prof. Harrison—“What makes you think the human race has reached the height of its progress?” pitch—“Because no new dance steps have been invented for a deuce of a time.” “Pop’s goin’ to give me a watch,” said Cherkasky. “That will be uice,” replied his aunt, ‘and it will help you getting to school in the morning.” “Yes, that’s so, ’cause when I get to school I can look at the watch and see just how late I am.” Bright Boy in Laboratory. Bright one—“Oh, boy, I saw a garter snake most a yard and a half long.” Prof. Lawrence—“You’re some hunter. Don’t you know that garter snakes don’t grow that long ?” Bright one—“Well, I thought it was a garter snake, ’cause it was wrapped ’round the limb of a tree.” French Teacher—“From now on anyone caught whispering will be severely de-merited.” Nelson to Jiinal—“Horrors! We shall be forced to talk out loud.” Proud Father—“My boy, Chic, certainly loves animals.” Skeptical Listener—“How’s that ?” Proud Father—“Why, only last night I heard my son talking in his sleep and guess what he was saying.” Skeptical Listener—“What was he saying?” Proud Father—“Feed the kitty — feed the kitty.” Teacher—“I’m getting pretty well disgusted with your horse laugh.” Gannon—“Well, you see I’ve a slight cold,—I’m a little hoarse (horse).” Fourteen Domestic Peace Points (San Diego Labor Leader) 1. Disarmament: Flatirons, rolling- pins and other instruments of warfare shall be junked, and all married couples shall live according to the league to enforce domestic peace. 2. Relatives shall not be invited except by mutual consent of both powers. 3. Possessions of both parties shall be put in a common pool, to be used only by a unanimous vote. The old man shall not hold out ten cents of salary on Saturday and claim he lost it. 4. The husband shall notify the wife at once of all increases in salary and not keep her on the old salary basis of figuring. This has been one of the great evils of international exchange. 5. Ports of entry shall be free. The wife shall not lock the front door and back door and all the windows when the husband is out late Maybe once in ten years there may be a valid reason for it. 6. The right of self-determination shall be observed rigidly. Husbands shall pick out their own clothes, and no man shall be obliged to wear a pink necktie when he prefers heliotrope. 7. All questions of domestic state shall be settled by vote. If the vote results in a tie the matter shall go the wife’s way. 8. Any husband who gets theatre passes and makes the wife think he paid $2.00 apiece for tickets shall be fined by the League of Matrons. 9. The League of Matrons shall meet once each year to help make the world safe for matrimony. 10. No husband shall have any foreign possessions unknown to the other half of his sketch. 11. Taps shall be sounded at 9 p. m. 12. No wife shall give her husband’s old clothes to the Salvation Army without having submitted the matter to a plebiscite. 13. There shall be no conversation whatever at the breakfast table. Thousands of domestic wars will thus be avoided. 14. If there are any small nations in the domestic league their upbringing shall be governed jointly by husband and wife, all 18 BULKELEY NEWS spanking being done alternately bv them. McInnis at the Gates of Heaven. St. Peter—“What do you think you have done to merit everlasting peace?” McInnis—“Well, I have never put any buttons in collections; never have I refused to escort a lady to her domicile. When beggars have asked me for aid, I have given it,—sometimes. Although occasionally I have ‘cleaned up’ naughty ‘Sophs’, I have apologized for it afterwards and----” St. Peter—“It is no use, Mortal, you do not belong here.” McInnis—“But, Pete, I played on a team that beat Norwich Free Academy.” St. Peter—“Why didn’t you say so at first? Here are the keys, pick out any room in the place.” Round—“I’m the flower of my family all right.” Whiton—“I wonder if that’s what your brother meant yesterday when he said you were a blooming idiot?” The gods invented sleep—then some fool conjured np the alarm clock. Berger—“I asked my French teacher for a higher mark but she refused it.” Ryan—“Too bad. Perhaps you didn’t approach her at the zoological moment.” She told me she had ne’er deen kissed, Such a shameful thing aroused my ire, She will not tell the tale again, Because I know she’s not a liar ! A boy wrote a composition on the subject of the Quakers, whom he described as a sect who never quarreled, never got into a fight, never clawed each other, and never jawed back. The production contained a postcript in these words : “Pa’s a Quak- er, but ma isn’t.” threw a cake at me. One that I made myself, too!” Mother—“The monster ! He might have killed you.” Is there a word in the English language that contains all the vowels ? Yes, unquestionably. “Here’s something queer,” said the dentist. “You say this tooth has never been worked on before, but I find small flakes of gold on my instrument.” “I think you have struck my back collar button,” replied the victim. P. Farrell entered a grocery store and said to the clerk: “Take this order, io lbs. sugar at 6 cents, u lbs. coffee at 25 cents. 8 lbs. tea at 30 cents. Add that up. How much is it ?” Clerk—“Five dollars.” P. Farrell—“Are you sure?” Clerk—“Of course I’m sure.” P. Farrel—“Thanks. That’s my arithmetic lesson for to-morrow.” “It’s only natural, isn’t it?” “What?” “That a fellow who sits on a tack should make a few pointed remarks.” How may book-keeping be taught in a lesson of three words ? Never lend them. A girl went into a store to buy garters. “What kind?” “Rubber.” “I’d lose my job if I did.” “Mandy, fo’ de Lawd’s sake, don’t let dem chickens outer dis yard. Shut dat gate.” “What fur, Aleck; dey’ll come home, won’t dey ?” “Deed dey won’t. Dey’ll go home.” Mrs. Newbride—“Boo, hoo! H e r y BULKELEY NEWS 19 It was the dinner-hour, and the prison inspectors were hurrying over their official round. They asked several questions quickly. “I am here, gentlemen,” explained the pick-pocket, when the warden turned his back, ‘‘as the result of a moment of abstraction.” ‘‘And I,” observed the incendiary, ‘‘because of an unfortunate habit of making light of things.” ‘‘The reason I am here,” chimed in the forger, ‘‘is simply on account of a natural desire to make a name for myself.” ‘‘And I,” added the burglar, ‘‘through nothing but taking advantage of an opening which was offered in a large mercantile establishment.” Heard at W. M. I. Emmy—‘‘I’ve got an invite to the Bul-keley Dance, but not the least idea what I am to go in. What would you wear if you had my complexion?” Fanny—“A thick veil.” Marion—‘‘When you refused him my hand, papa, did he get down on his knees?” Dad—‘‘Well, I didn’t notice just where he lit.” “How do you stand in your class, Willie?” “All right; I’m going into the middleweight soon.” “How can you expect to drive that nail with the heel of a shoe?” inquired Newlywed of his spouse. “Use your head !” Then he wondered why she wouldn’t speak to him the rest of the day. Willis—“Does Bump come of a distinguished lineage ?” Gillis—“You bet. His family were buccaneers in the 18th century, privateers in the 19th, and profiteers in the 20th. Principal—“How much do you expect a week for teaching ?” Prof.—“Well, I should not consider anything under $50.” Principal—“Ye Gods ! Do you think you’re the janitor ?” Editor—“Your reports should be written so as the most ignorant could read them.” Reporter—“What part is it you don’t understand ?” Rensselaer Established 1824 Troy N.

It was a victorious season; one that should never be forgotten; one that should be written in the annals of the school; and one that in the future will be the source of many happy recollections. Yes ! in the very first week of training nearly twenty-five huskies reported daily. This squad was soon molded into two well organized, trained, and playing teams. Practice and scrimmage was given every day, under the supervision of THEODORE BRITTON Manager 1919 Coach Phillips, and soon the teams were ready for the fray. The student body, faculty, and alumni supported the team in every manner, and school spirit was never more evident. Out of seven games; five were glorious victories; one an honest defeat, and one a shameful tie. Much credit should go to our wonderful playing manager and fighting captain for in all contests they set a brilliant example and proved to the school that they were worthy of their positions. Without a doubt the stellar per-fo.'.nerof Bulkeley this year was THE TEAM THAT LEAD OLD BULKELEY TO VICTORY AND CHAMPIONSHIP Top row-Davidson, MacMahon, D. Cassara, Bent, McCraw, Jimal, Sisson MacCarthy Murphy. Middle row-Howard, Britton, mgr., T. Cassara, Fitch, capt., Birmingham. Maclnn.s, Ryan. Bottom row—W. Chapman, Farrell, Nelson, Dray, Kiely. BULKELEY NEWS 21 Joe Maclnnis, our all-round athlete. Joe was here, there, and everywhere in every game and succeeded in spoiling many of our rivals’ defensive and offensive plays. It is with the greatest of pleasure that we announce that he has been elected captain of Bulkeley’s 1920 football team. May he pilot as victorious an eleven as the one of 1919 and again bring to Bulkeley the “Championship of Eastern Connecticut”. The schedule was as follows: Bulkeley 6—Stonington 0. The first contest of the season was held October 4 at Plant Field. The visitors were the braves of Stonington High. The game being the initial one did not have the pep and vim of its followers. However, it proved to the school that she possessed an eleven willing to flight for her honors and meant to retain them. After three quarters of hard scoreless playing in the last period by a series of aerial plays Bulkeley succeeded in crossing the goal line and won by the score of 6-0. Stars for Stonington were: Sheehan and Pepper; for Bulkeley, Fitch and Birmingham. B 0 Bulkeley 13—Windham 0. October 11. Our second game was even a more decisive and encouraging victory, beating Windham High at Plant Field by the score of 13-0. With the kick-off, Bulkeley started her drive and before the first quarter was completed Joe Maclnnis circled the right-end of the up-State boys for the first touchdown. He then kicked the goal. The second quarter was spent in hard fighting within the 40 yd. line. In the third quarter Windham reached our 2 yd. line but with a stone-wall, bull-dog defensive, she was pushed back for a loss on every down. Again in the last period Quarterback Birmingham went through guard for the second touchdown. Maclnnis failed to kick the goal. The game ended soon with Bulkeley on the long end of 13-0. Stars for Windham were: Sumner and Ellison; for Bulkeley, Ryan, Maclnnis, Howard. B B Bulkeley 19—Windham 0. October 25. On the 25th of the month a large aggregation of local rooters, including many from W. M. I., travelled up to Willimantic to witness Bulkeley again conquer Windham High to the tune of 19-0. The Orange and Black did most of the offensive work and never throughout the game was her goal shadowed. The touchdowns came in the first, second, and last periods. In the last period MacCarthy, our fast left-end, intercepted a forward and ran eighty yards for a touchdown. Bulkeley showed her superiority in all phases of the game working many shift and pass plays, mixing in sev-sral line pludges and end runs. The stars for Windham were: Sullivan and Sumner; for Bulkeley, Farrel, Maclnnis, Fitch, McCarthy. B B 22 BULKELEY NEWS Bulkeley 12—N. F. A. 7. November 1. The first of November is a game that will be remembered by nearly 900 spectators as one of the fastest high school football games ever staged at Plant Field. The contestants were Bulkeley and Norwich Free Academy,—“friendly enemies from time immemorial. Both sides of the gridiron were lined with hundreds of hopeful rooters. The loyal W. M. I., supporters must be thanked for their patronage and assistance at the game. Every minute of the game the air was filled with hearty cheers. The first two quarters were spent in see-sawing up and down the field. Norwich succeeded in carrying the pigskin far into our territory several times. Nevertheless in the third quarter Bulkeley turned the trick when after several trick plays Maclnnis went off for the first touchdown. Again in that period Fitch received a skillfully passed ball from Birmingham and crossed the line again. Both attempts at kicking the goal failed. Score 12-0. In the fourth quarter Norwich played several forward passes on to have them “incompleted” by MacCraw or Maclnnis. However, finally a pass from Whitney to Wilcox enabled the latter to score. Ringland then kicked the goal. Score 12-7. Stars for N. F. A. were: Ringland, and J. Wilcox; for Bulkeley: D. Cassara, Ryan, Birmingham, and Maclnnis. 0 0 Bulkeley 0—Suffield 52. November 8. The team on November 8th journeyed up to Suffield where they received their first and only defeat. It was not because they were not “game”,—no, they took one of the best beatings that was ever given to a lighter team. They were simply out-played, out-weighed, and out-run. Nevertheless, they fought hard and gamely throughout the contest and not until the final whistle did they give up hope. The score was 52-0. The less said the better. 0 0 Bulkeley 18—Vocational 7. November 15. Our big game of the season was played November 15th, at Plant Field, where we met and defeated our local rivals from Vocational. The score of 18-7 does not reveal the superiority which the Orange and Black boys showed. This long talked of battle brought out the customary crowd. Every alumnus of either school was present to cheer his “Alma Mater”, and W. M. I., again yelled itself hoarse for Bulkeley. Long before the fatal hour the side-lines were thronged with anxious rooters. Both cheering squads gave excellent support to their heroes. Bulkeley started like a cyclone and before the first period was over two touchdowns had been made. Maclnnis cleared the Red and Black right-end for 45 yards and the first touchdown. Then by several aerial plays the oval wras carried to Vocational’s 4 yard line. 1' BULKELEY NEWS 23 Birmingham soon crashed through tackle for the second touchdown. Both attempts at kicking fell short. Again in the third period Birmingham hit the line and netted 30 yds., Maclnnis once more circled right-end for the next 6 points. Vocational came to life in the last quarter and succeeded in scoring on Bulkeley for the first time in six years. Lord intercepted a Bulkeley forward pass and ran to our 10 yard line. Bulkeley’s defensive ability promptly showed itself and held for three downs. On the fourth Zozzora recovered a fumble and fell across. Guthrie then booted it over the crossbars. The game soon ended, the Orange and Black boys victors, by the score of 18-7. The shining lights for Vocational were: Lord, and Guthrie; for Bulkeley: Ryan, Maclnnis, D. Cassara, Birmingham. B B Bulkeley 7—N. F. A. 7. November 22. The Bulkeley eleven played its last game of the season on the campus of the Norwich Free Academy, November the 22nd. The contest ended in a 7-7 tie. One of the largest gatherings that ever witnessed one of the games, was present and New London had every one of her sport fans present; business men, alumni, old-time sports, W. M. I., and nearly all the student body. Bulkeley had to play both the officials and the Academy eleven, for MacKay insisted that the referee and umpire be Norwich men. Well, those who were there know the result. However, Bulkeley started not over-confident, but determined, and her playing proved that she was in excellent condition. The first and second quarters ended without either team scoring and showed the teams to be evenly matched. In the third perion Maclnnis cut loose through the Red and White line from midfield and with the best interference ran for our only touchdown. He then kicked sately over the cross-bars. Then Norwich livened up and sent Markoff through for their touchdown. Ringland immediately kicked the goal and tied the score. The fourth period proved uneventful and the game ended with a score of 7-7. The stars for Norwich were: Young and Wilcox; for Bulkeley, Jimal, Ryan, and Maclnnis. —F.

A good many old Bulk eley football stars were noticeable in the New London Independents’ lineup. They suffered only one defeat in the entire season. THE REAL STUFF Thi6 is about a football team, That had never been beaten before, They went away, Confident that they, Another victory would add to their score. They went up against a school With just the same record as they. This team had the weight, And pos’bly ’twas fate That the surer should beaten be. The score, why that doesn’t matter; It doesn’t count after all; But it’s the fight one makes And the blows one takes When driven against the wall. The test of your mettle, the proof of your worth Isn’t the blows you deal It isn’t the cinch But it is the pinch That shows if your stuff is real. —William McCraw, ’20 Uulfeelep SHOCK VII fitllklg fletD0 S tuff Editor-in-chief.......Carl E.
