 10 BULKELEY NEWS iEftitoriala. ANNOUNCEMENT. With this issue the “News” announces two changes. The first is its combining with “ The Orange and Black ” by which it is hoped to make one paper larger and better than either was before. The first step to this end is the increase in the size of the magazine which we are inaugurating with this issue. The second change is a change in management by which a Board of Editors consisting of three men is put in charge of the management of the paper. This is done that the work connected with the magazine ;may be done better and easier than before thus tending to increase the quality of the paper. This is done also so that men more representative of the school body as a whole may have the management of the paper. This board will be in control of the next issue and will be composed of the following men: Daniel O’Neil ’21, Eugene Crouch’21, and George Lincoln ’22. These changes have been instituted for the sincere purpose of bettering the “ News ” nd we hope that our readers, and advertisers will approve of them and cooperate with us in them. THE GRADUATION PRIZE. Following the custom started by the staff of the 1919 “ News ” the staff of this paper will give a prize of five dollars in gold :o the speaker at the graduation exercises who in the opinion of judges is second best n the delivery of his oration. If the judges iecide that there is a tie for second place a Ive dollar prize will be given to each speaker. | This prize is not given as a material regard, for it is too small, but is given that :here may be a wider and more satisfactory recognition of good speaking and that) I disappointment which so often attends! award of the first prize where the differei1 between two speakers is very small mar1 averted. I FOOTBALL MANAGER. J It is now the month of April and as Bulkeley has not a football manager ei for next year. Every other school of importance around us has their mai elected and are beseiging us with for games. This is a matter that shouldi attended to at once otherwise our schafe for next year will be a sorry affair. It is injustice also to the man who is elected for makes it much harder for him to prepare! schedule when other schools have theii ready. Let us hope there is something d 4 about it soon. Paragraphs.

Wordsworth! and Keats! awake from your graves and lament with us, no longer is Bernard Bent in our midst ,io more! Oh, never more will he be seen with f those brown shoes and that un-parted hair, ie tramp to Niantic that we lament, iof the squatters, who have jumped Carl Kuester’s gold claim in Niantic along the river Rogers. What is the reason for some unknown boys and coming to school on Wednesday morning without cltssons ? Did Bent really get “water on the knee” from wig football ? Mf. Lyons, “ Say Smith! aren’t you and Farrell 1 to school any more ? ” Mr. Smith, “ Why no.

Squeaky Bob, Referee. Yes, the boys don’t have to borrow “ B’s ’’ anymore to entertain Niantic, they “ roll their own.” Funny, isn’t it, how enticing Niantic is. We now lament the loss of “ B ” men, Bent, Mac Mahon, Mar Donald and Nelson. Kuester thinks clam digging at Eastern Point is mud better in Winter. So do we. Behold! an added attraction in New London The Misses Kaufman and Sokol shall accompany Mr Denison, the famous pianist in Musical entertainments a the Public Library evenings.

But when the whole Senior Clas can get in back of Crouch, Hanover, Jerome and Den nison in Science recitation it is a little discrediting. Th Seniors are noted for the small amount of studying the get by on. This might account for it if anyone is res inquisitive.
