Bulkeley Annual : L- t f r sz —r - 3 l n 9 9 ■ 11; JJ H. REES MITCHELL (“Mitch ) Potpourri (4): Dramatic Club (4); Scienti ic Course. Rees surely does like to come to school once in a while. And how he can twang those banjo strings! Well, he really did attend classes when he wasn't in Florida. His name may not be “Ike, but the way he makes that Ford go is a marvel. GINO MONTALI (“Gene ) Basketball (1) (2); Baseball (1) (2) (3) (4); Commercial Course. Gene's good right arm was the mainstay of this year's baseball team. He’s the one who can put it across. We bet he will make a lot of dough! JAMES P. MORAN (“Jim ) Pin Committee (1); Class Secretary (3) (4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Ring Committee (3); Classical Course. We must take off our hats to “Jim” for his wonderfully fluent translations of French. “Jim” has been on nearly all the committees ever formed. This is due to his good, plain, common sense. Stop laughing, we're serious. EDWARD B. MORGAN (“J. P.“) Radio Club (I) (4); Ring Committee (1); Orchestra (1) (2); Potpourri (4); Annual Board (1) (2) (3); Dramatic Club (2); Scientific Course. J. P. is an explorer, a scientist, and optimist, for he rejuvenated a tin-can, rode many miles in it, and says that he will travel many more miles in his flivver. Eddie’s interest is divided between the college and Bulkeley (the proportion is uncertain). One of these days Ed is going to graduate and fool everybody, so here's good luck to you. Old Man.

Bulkeley Annual; 1 9 9 NiM t“i.nr i MARTIN McCUE ( Bill, “Mac”) Class Baseball (1) (2); Julius Caesar” (3); Regiment of Two” (3); Baseball Squad (3); Football (4); Budget Committee (4); Sport Editor (4); Potpourri (4); Classical Course. All right, Hercules, reveal your grinning phis” to the multitude. At a boy! Who would ever think that this was the face of a soldier, so young and gentle! But Irish blood and murder are bound to reveal themselves. But in spite of this, “Mac sure slings a wicked pig skin. So let's hope that some day he will sign his check with a General. HUGH MacKAY (“Mucka ) Class Baseball (2); Potpourri (4), Radio Club (4); Bul eley Serenaders (4); Scientific Course. Among us we have a musician of well known ability. Mucka at the piano was the shining light of the Bulkeley Serenaders. In a few years we expect ,• to hear him over the radio, with “Nina as his favorite encore. As Schwartz said of his get-up in the Potpourri, “Wee sleekit, cow'rin , tim'rous beastie, oh, what a panic with thy kilties! WAYLAND MANSFIELD ( Wales ) Annual Board (2) (3) (4); Photographic Editor (4); Tennis Team (2) (3); Junior Review (3). A dimple in the chin; a devil within. That can hardly apply to ' Wales. We can see him now with those dark lashes of his resting on that “skin you love to touch in profound slumber during the third period. But on the tennis court—WOW! Tilden, watch out. PETER MARIANO (“Pete ) Class Baseball (2) (3); Commercial Course. Pete has always stayed in the background as far as social activities go. You see, he lives back in the wilds of Waterford, and that probably accounts for that. But as for his academic standing, ask any commercial.

.Bulkeley Annual, -19.Q6 ., 5S3 Sr • f'V . .. - • ;i JASPER MURPHY ( Muffi ) Scientific Course. The call of the wild personified. Look at it! Muffi resides in Noank amid the aromas of wild flowers and fish. Jasper is a real American and doesn't care who knows it, and on top of that he's a ripping good fellow. ROLAND MURPHY (“Spud ) Commercial Course. Everyone has heard Spud, even if they have never seen him. Jim Marion has said that on certain days, long after school has closed, the echoes of his voice may still be heard in Room 4. But he certainly seems capable of keeping up with the fair sex. THOMAS N. MURRAY ( T. N. T„” Tom ) “Merchant of Venice” (2): Class Baseball (2) (3); Classical Course. T. N. T. stands for Taint No Trouble to help a fellow out. That's Tom's expression, and believe me he makes good. Tom is popular, cheerful, and Irish, so what more can we say in his favor? HARRY W. NELSON ( Socrates ) Merchant of Venice” (2); Julius Caesar”; Junior Review (3); Dramatic Editor (4); Potpourri (4); Dramatic Club (4); Man Without a Head” (4); English Prize (3); Second, History Prize (3); Classical Course. Groton has something to be proud of in the form of Harry. His literary ability has earned him the respect of the students as well as of the teachers. We wonder what he does in Groton to pass away the time? That's nobody's business. Here's to our future author (or dramatist)!
