' icy---f Q THE MQRGAN GARDNER BULKELEY HIGH SCHOOL FCDREWORD N this, the tenth year of the history of our school, we of whom falls the honor of celebrating the great occasion fhere IS no student in our class but feels lt IS indeed an honor to bring his high school career to an end at this particular time. From our vantage point we can look back with no little pride to the advances which Bulkeley has made in those ten full years. Now it is for us to look forward to the steps which our high school xx the Class of 193613 are indeed fortunate to be the ones on f X l l I I i i ' mx will make in the next ten years. In Bulkeley there has always been a strong sense of unity between the student body and the school itself. These intangible somethings called school spirit and school pride have never been more pro- nounced than at the present time. To Bulkeley students their school is not just a school in the City of Hartford-it is the school. ln the first two years of its existence, with an enrollment of less than one thousand, a school paper, the Torch. and a literary maga- zine, the Dial, were organized and published through the students, own initiative, and they have been flourishing ever since. It is this spirit which has made Bulkeley one of the best known and respected high schools in the state, from both an academic and an athletic viewpoint. ln both these fields our class has played a leading part. Four years ago we might have laughed and considered it trite if some graduating senior had told us that l1is four years at Bulkeley were the happiest in his life. Now that we are in his place we can no longer consider it so, for it is true indeed. ln this Class Book the editors hope to establish a lasting bond between their classmates and the institution where we have spent those four years. We wish to offer our sincere thanks to Dr. Feingold for his excellent advice, to Miss Potter and Mr. Hart of the faculty for their invaluable assistance: to the editorial and business boardsg to Miss Alma Plumb of the Art Department, to Patricia Heidacker, James Young, Dominick Cataldo. Arthur Boehm, Alexander Oleniclc and Ruth Russell for the art work visible throughout the book, and to the typists, Rena Stockwell, lsabel Denerich, Rose Morello, Doris Duncan. and Franc-es Wilsberg, for their cheerful service in helping us compile the mass of necessary material.

WH . i A W ANNIVEIQAQY Cl-IAIRMAN'S DDRESS Parents, Teachers, and Friends: ln the fulfillment of a traditional policy established in the early years of Bulkeley High School, we are met here tonight to bring to an appropriate close, our eventful years spent in this institution. Vvle believe that your presence here is an indication of your sustained interest in our welfare. For our own part, this evening is one which we have long since awaited anxiously, and one which we shall long remember. Our days here were spent not alone i11 the pursuit of learning and truth, but also in sports and extra-curricular activities which mean so much to the American high school youth. Here the fundamental principles of self-control and obedience to authority were instilled in our life. l-lere we formed priceless friendships which found their wellsprings in our common problems and their perrnanency in our abiding loyalty to each other. Tonight we meet to celebrate informally the end of our high school career, and in a serio-comic effort, to re-live our past and to delve into our future. Wie would also honor our Alma Mater on this, her Tenth Anniversary. Catching our inspira- tion from her splendid and sympathetic faculty, we wish to leave behind us all petty, narrow and selfish thoughts, and to be animated this evening by the ideals and indomitable spirit with which our teachers have inspired us. And so, on behalf of the largest class to be graduated from Bulkeley High School, distinguished also for having retained 78 percent of its original membership, il bid you parents, teachers, and friends a most cordial welcome to our Class Night Exercises.

Could such improvement have taken place under a dictatorship where the common people are practically powerless? The totalitarian state, that is, the state in which extreme absolutism is practiced by a dictator or a party, is obnoxious to the general name of Americans. In a dictatorship emphasis is laid upon strength and power, autocratic discipline, and slavish obedience. Witness the recent drive in Germany against the Jews which culminated in an anti-Semitic outburst. Freedom of speech, press, and assembly, the hard-worn rights of man, have been compelled to conform to Nazi dictates and ideals. Both the Lutheran and Catholic churches have also felt the heavy pressure of Nazi control. From an entirely different point of view, we may inquire how safe a dictatorship is for any nation in the long run. This form of government usually hinges upon a single dominant personality-as, for instance, Mussolini, who finds delight in facing the camera, displaying his imperial grandeur, or Hitler, who thinks he alone is destined to lift Germany from the disgrace of the last warg or Stalin, whose promise of a Utopian Russia always seems to be five years away. What if one of these dictators should die? Even these mighty are mortal, so mortal indeed that Hitler and Mussolini, like the typical American gangster, are never seen without a group of bodyguards trailing their steps like faithful dogs. If one of these supermen should die, what would happen? Why, his government would go toppling down like a child's pile of blocks, for the dictator is so dominant that there is no chance for a successor to emerge. The common fallacy exists that citizens in a dictatorship are allowed to vote for whomever they please. On the contrary, voting has been reduced to the possi- bility of approving deputies selected by a small group of powerful menf' View the corruptness of the elections in Germany held in April of this year. Hitler received a vote of confidence from almost 99 percent of the people. Wlhy? Because Hitler was the only one for whom the people were voting, and those who did not cast their ballot for der Fuehrer risked their lives! To be sure, many are the cries that democracy is corrupt. Perhaps it is, but does it follow, therefore, that one man entrusted with the superhuman responsibility of a dictator and responsible to no superior power is less corrupt? I grant that we can find many mistakes in democracy, as in any form of government, but we do not make the mistake of settling disputes, such as the recent strike in New York, by bloodshed and loss of life. We do not compel youths of ten to don uniform and seize gun. It takes a Fascist regime to do that. You mothers, think of the horror of having your sons taught almost from the cradle the rules of the most destructive game on earth-warg of having inculcated in them a desire to kill their own brothers! We can truly be thankful we are living in a democrarcy where such fears do not exist. In England, certainly one of the most democratic nations on earth, in Hyde Park a person may talk about anything under the sun with full protection of the government. The reason is thus: if he talks himself out, he is not 112 Fl A Sei dangerous. Wie have often seen such orators on our ow11 street corners. How far would they get, or ratlier, how long would they live, in Home denouncing Il Duce, in Berlin criticising der Fuehrer, or in Moscow speaking against the evils of Communism? In such plan-es l could not even be delivering this speech. As I have previously iniplic-cl, despotism is a blight on all forms of culture, on industry and commerce, on literature and philosophy, on religion and morals. Do we wish to have the progress of civilization along all these lines, as Well as free speech, free press, free action, and free right to assemble for public discussions, sacrificed by adopting a dictatorial form of government? I hope we are not foolish enough to renounce our democratic rights, those rights which make it possible for us, the people, to direct the destinies of our government. I make my final plea, therefore, that we may not be caught in the tentacles of dictatorship, but rather keep our democratic form of government so heroically established by our forefathers- a government Hof the people, for the people, and by the peoplef' GUSTA VE W. ANDRIAN 113 22 9. .. ,-m-1.1 r Art... . AA is , i 'H Y -'Y' Y YA v Y I s ' r I People We Remember W VERY day throuffh the medium of newspapers, magazines, and radios, A we read and hear of people who hold the limelight for the minute, f Z! personalities who are vivid and interesting, hut who fade as quickly as A f n . . . X they come. Products are named after them, spectacular publicity is spread about them, and everything possible is done to create around them an aura of glamour and color. But have you ever stopped to think how many of these we remember? Their popularity hangs on a thread, and one day other celebrities flame hefore our eyes and the old ones are obscured and forgotten. If we were to analyze the character and personality of those people we re- memher, we should find that they possess many different qualities, heauty, ability, deftness in fcoiiversation, wit, and all the things that, together or alone, appeal to us. But without fail, I think, we should find two characteristics that make them real and human to us, sincerity and simplicity. Those who really had these gifts inherent in them, those two great historical figures, Wiashington and Lincoln, and a few people famous in other fields such as 11-1 l ANNN A fe! Wlill Rogers, Sarah Bernhardt, Louis Pasteur, Mark Twain, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and lfdwin Arlington Robinson, sought no publicity. They were great in 'them- selves and had no need to feed their ego by hysterically forcing themselves into the limelight. As presidents of the United States, we have had many great men, men who loved their country and were willing to sacrifice themselves and to bear the burden of criticism and opposition in order to do what they thought right. Yet many of them are only names to us, connected with certain policies and acts, not human people that we may know, but Washington and Lincoln will never be forgotten. George Wasliirigtori, of whom it was once said, HHe is the only man in fact, upon whom the epithet 'greatl may be justly bestowedw, was one of the greatest leaders of men. He was fearless and daring, yet quiet and unassuming, and for eight years he served as President with such simplicity and unselfishness that he has gone into history as America's mightiest man. In spite of the lowliness of his origin and the unattractiveness of his body, something in the soul of Abraham Lincoln proclaimed him a great man, a man who was to become glorified among all Americans. He was never jealous of his power or afraid that a man mightier than he might wrest it from him. When he was told that his Secretary of Wrar considered himself greater than he, Lincoln answered, MI wish I knew all the men who believe that they are greater than I, so that I might put them in my cabinetf, There was never a man more fitted to lead than Lincoln, simple in his life and speech, broad-minded, unassuming, just and true and, as time goes on, the fame of Abraham Lincoln will increase and mark him as one of the greatest, noblest, best, and wisest men the world has known. Will Rogers, 'cwith malice toward none, with charity to allw, always spoke of himself as ujust an entertainerw. He used to say, HI ainit for anything. I ain't selling anything. I ainit got a remedy for anythingf' Yet with the unconscious simplicity of genius, he had all these things, and everyone believed and trusted in the things he said. He was frank, generous, democratic, and sincere. He was a friend of famous people in all walks of life, yet he made no distinction between classes, he was as congenial -with a brakeman as with a railroad magnate, and could truly say, HI never inet a man I didnit likef' The great scientists, such as Louis Pasteur, who have done more for our health and well-being than any other group of men, were simple and even humble. When the school children of France were asked to choose the man they considered the greatest of their country, they chose not Napoleon, but Louis Pasteur. He was kindly, modest, and warm-hearted and, although he was paralyzed on one side of his body, he plodded along, year after year in obscurity, working for his fellowmen. Even when he had attained fame and was hailed everywhere as a benefactor of mankind, he never forgot that he had been a humble peasant. When he was offered the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor, he refused it unless the Red Ribbon was also given to his two associates, who, he claimed, deserved credit as well as he. Another example is Sarah Bernhardt, one of the greatest actresses the world 115 L H52 . A ANNNEQSAXIQY has known and yet when she was at the height of her fame, when thousands ap- plauded her, she was simple and unassuming. During a tour of the smaller cities, she played at a theater where a new star, who had risen with breath-taking speed from obscurity to fame, had played the week before. Nothing was right for the upstart. Her dressing-room was a disgrace, the stage cramped her style, the light- ing did not bring out her exotic beauty. Then Sarah Bernhardt came to the theater. The youthful manager was frantic. If a cheap little actress caused such an uproar, what would the great Bernhardt do? Then he learned what made Sarah Bernhardt the great celebrity she was. ln the midst of his almost tearful apologies she said simply, '4My dear boy, donit you think that I have played in worse places than this? Among our authors we have Mark Twain, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edwin 77 Arlington Robinson. Mark Twain, styled HThe Prince of Humor , was the closest observer of human nature, institutions, places and things that ever lived, and all this accumulated knowledge he poured into his books, especially those classics of boyhood, Tom Sawyer, and Huckleberry Finn. Mark Twain became one of the most famous men on earth and yet he was never conceited and was a bitter foe of insincerity and shams of every sort. uPrinter, pilot, reporter, humorist, novelist, philosopher-Mark Twain is safely embalmed to enduring fame. No author ever wrote under greater discouragement than Nathaniel Hawthorne, yet he won the admiration and love of posterity. When a publisher asked him to submit a book, Hawthorne said, UWho would risk publishing a book for me, the most unpopular writer in America?77 and he was sincere in his simplicity, although the book that was published was The Scarlet Letter, of which five thousand copies were sold within five days. Throughout all his books, genuineness, honesty of spirit, and sympathy with all human sufferings and weaknesses have proclaimed Nathaniel Hawthorne as a great man. Edwin Arlington Robinson wrote many vivid and interesting poems which will last forever in people's minds and hearts, not only because of their forceful and picturesque language but because of the simple straightforwardness which reflects his personality. He alone has had the honor of winning the Pulitzer Prize three times, for his 4'Collected Poemsn, The Man Who Died Twicen, and 'cTristram7'. He never talked about his own poetry, never criticized other people's, and never read his own in public. The greatest knowledge we can gain of his character is from his own words. ul don't know whether I am a great poet or not. Time alone can tell about that. But l do know that l have never consciously injured anyone. And that at least is something. Celebrities may come and go, and conditions and customs of the World may change, but those people who are really great in themselves will live forever.

He made us realize how Q serious these four years were going to be, and he also told us that we were the largest class ever to enter the school, since we numbered some four hundred. We had to attend the afternoon session, and we soon began to wish that our school day was all over at one o'c-lock as was the day of the upper classrnen. 121 WH A EQ? Wie began to take a bigger part in extra-curricular activity when we entered our sophomore year. We were eligible to try out for the Torch boards, an opportunity which made us feel very important. Another advantage which gave us quite an air of superiority was the fact that, being upper sophomores, we were now attending the morning session. Wie could now exult as we passed the lower classmen about to begin the long afternoon. This lasted until September, l935, when the school returned to the single session plan, and accordingly everyone attended classes in the morning. Another change which went into effect at this time was the abolishing of examinations. According to many members of Bulkeley, homework, also, might have been done away with. By this time our class had made itself prominent in the different clubs. Winifred Kerin was elected president of the Girls? League, one of the leading clubs of the school. Winifred has always been popular and has done a great deal for the Cirlsl League. Later on George Fritze became president of the Student Council. James Matthews attained the position of co-editor of the Torch, while Marguerite Strong reached her long-striven-for goal of business manager. Raymond Bieth edited the Dial very capably, while Paul Perrotta managed the business side. The stage also attracted many members of our class. Among those Who stood Ollt were James Matthews, Roma Wilson, James Fagan, Thomas Diesel, ,lane Edwards, Marie Manion, Concetta Renna, and Sally Kirkorian. Raymond Bieth, our valedictorian, has won many honors, and has certainly made a success of his four years in high school. He has been awarded several scholarships, won a book prize in the Harvard Club of Connecticut Contest, was elected president of the Honor Society, was assistant editor of the Class Book, and was a junior usher. William McCarthy, the salutatorian, also has won scholarships, is a member of the Honor Society, was a junior usher, was on the editorial board of the Class Book, and has held various offices in clubs. ln the fall of 1932, the boys in our class proved their athletic interest when some forty of them reported for freshman football. A number of these- boys were substitutes when Bob Crosch, Bill Kelly, Jackson Taylor, and the Crasso, Cottone, and Garneau brothers were beginning to pile up city championship titles. Gradually the members of our class took their places on the first teams and boosted the Greater Hartford Championship titles to eight consecutively, an all-time city record. Our last two basketball teams were the only ones from Hartford to qualify for the Yale Tournament. Edward Korisky, a member of our class, holds the city record in the javelin throw. About fifty major letters were awarded to our class, Alan Mooney taking seven of them. Dominick Cataldo, Patrick Cherry, George Fritze, and Alan Mooney all participated in three major sports. Richard Lindner and Dominick Cataldo also won social and scholarship honors. ln the years to come, Babe Allen will surely remember with pride the perform- ances of his teams between l932 and 1936. t 122 F553 Among the outstanding events of our four years was the founding of the Legis- lative Club of which Mr. Coons is the faculty adviser. ln a contest sponsored by the Dial, Helen Ahlquist was elected Miss Bulkeleyf' lncidentally, while we are speaking of the Dial, Mr. Russell became the faculty adviser of the business board at the resignation of Mr. Daly, while Mr. Stoddard took over the editorial board in place of Miss Elmeudorf. While in school, too, we have had the good fortune to enjoy many thoroughly interesting and educational assemblies. Perhaps the one which stands out clearly in the minds of all of us was that at which Mr. Willard Van Der Veer, the official photographer of the Byrd Expedition to the South Pole, spoke. He certainly cap- tured the interest of every person in his audience. We shall always remember 1936 as the year of our graduation, but it will go down in history as the year of the great flood. Some will associate it only with curious sights, while others will sadly remember the loss of their homes and posses- sions. For eleven days during March, Hartford stepped back almost one hundred years to the days of fireplace cooking, oil lamps, and a curfew. Hartford looked like a seaport with boats and sailors in places where they had never been seen before. Hundreds of people crowded close to the water to witness sights they will never forget. Few people realized the true tragedy until the thirty-seven and a half foot crest had subsided. Several Bulkeley boys were called from school when the National Guard and Naval Reserves were mobilized for duty. Everyone had excuses for not doing homework, and many had to be excused from gymnasium because of sore arms caused by inoculation for typhoid fever. Some of our classmates were more serious- ly affected and had to leave their homes for several days. The graduation of our class marks the end of ten successful years for Bulkeleyg of these ten, we have enjoyed four happy ones--perhaps four of the happiest years we shall ever know. We are now ready to uface the worldn and time alone can tell what will become of each of us in the future. Our class is the nineteenth to graduate since the opening of the school in 1926. It is the largest, comprising 365 members, and constitutes 73 percent of our original number who entered four years ago. MARION A. CUTTER WILLIAM A.

These men, Alan Mooney, George Fritze. Pat Cherry. and Philip fSo11nyfI Capohianco, supplied a great deal of strengtli. hut the all-i1nportant factor, the battery, was eoinpletely a hlank. None of the men wl1o had lreen tested last year seenied to IIIPLISUYP llll to tl1e standard deinaiided. Added to all these hiiidranees Was the fact that tl1e flood hampered an early lmeginning of practice sessions hy taking Babe away for relief duty, Lllld cancelling all chances of using Colt Park for either practice or gaines. But hard work will show results and when tl1e first game of the season-against Hartfoid Trade-was played, the fighting spirit of the teain would 11ot he downed, Ellld the teani triumphed for the first step towards a perhaps successfulsperhaps mediocre-season. The llIlPtlp as presented for the first game was as follows: LF, Lynehg CF, Fritxe: RF, Mooneyg lll. Pryorg 2B. Shannon: SS. Cherryg 3B, Capolmianco: C, Cnstafsong P, Drnniinond and Beattie.

Although fgasdgfgl once more qualifying for the Yale Tournament, one of the highest honors a schoolboy team can attain, the Maroons lost possession of the City Championship which they had held for two years running. The season started gloriously with a victory over the Trade School team. Getting up full steam, the team was derailed by East Hartford High, 48 to 45. Determining not to take this lying down, the Allenmen came back to score a second victory over the Trade School quintet, which went on despite these two defeats to qualify in the Class B tournament. Following this game, the Allenmen journeyed to Norwich to emerge victorious from a hot battle with the Red and White. With these victories under their belt, the Bulkeley five naturally looked forward to meeting the Meriden quintet, defending State Champions, and testing their mettle under heavy fire. With one of the most amazing exhibitions of poor basketball ever seen, they were trampled on by Meriden by the score of 33 to 4. Up to this time, the quintet had been wearing brand-new maroon outfits. After the Meriden game, Coach Allen recalled those suits and issued the old white suits. Vlfith this rebuke, the team woke up, and meeting a stronger West Haven aggregation, took them into camp to the tune of 27 to 17. From this point until almost a month later, the squad did not lose a game. Rockville came to town, Bulkeley went to town, and Rockville went back home with a 33 to 16 black mark on its record. The next game was Bulkeley's first in the intra-city series. Playing Weaver there, Larry Bernabeo led the team to a 28-21 victory. In his last game for Bulkeley, Larry single-handedly gave Bulkeley a good lead in this series by defeating Hartford High 32 to 16. Bernabeo scored 16 of the team's points, with Ed Miller, graduating with him, adding the two winning points. With the prospects dark for the rest of the season, the Allenmen went to West Haven to engage in one of the most thrilling basketball games on the schedule. With two minutes to go, the team was seven points behind. In one minute and five seconds, the five had made up this deficit, and went on to score a basket and a foul shot to win, 25 to 24. Wiith this game as a starter, the Allenmen defeated Rockville 23 to 14, before succumbing for the first time in three years to Wleaver, 34 to 23. One more game was played, with Wlest Hartford, before the tournament ratings closed, with Bulkeley winning 43 to 17. The following Monday, Bulkeley lost the City Championship to Hartford High, 27 to 17. On Friday, the regular season ended when Meriden once again defeated them, to 21. Faced with the undefeated Hillhouse team in the tournament game, Bulkeley put up a plucky fight before going down to defeat, 42-31. It must be stated that Bulkeley scored the most points on Hillhouse that any team had scored. The following men were awarded letters: Class of 1936A-Lurito Bernabeo, Edward Miller, Class of 193613-Alan Mooney, George Fritze, Dominick Cataldo, Richard Lindner, Patrick Cherry, Harry Blytheg Class of 1937-Manager Fred Brant. Four men who went to New Haven remained as veterans, no lettermen were back. 135 THE TRACK TEAM A ANNWIEQSAXQY TRACK TEAM NLY fair hope was l1eld out to Coach Hob Daly when he looked over the , prospects for his l930 track team. The co-captains. Redys and Korisl-Ly, were, of course, tl1e best inateriali he had for the duals, but their points would not count niuch in the Triangular and City nieets and no one else seeined to be in sight who would be reliable. But he had 11ot counted on the Young brothers. ,lanies was again eligible after having been lost for the l935 season, and Aubert and Yirgil were both back. Altogether in the first ineet, the Young brothers scored Zl points between theni, with James garnering lil of theni, in the lilll-yard dash. the 220-yard dash. and the broad junip. In this nieet also. John Redys surpassed expectations by breaking the school shot put record of 'l2 feet, 10 inches and the discus record of l,lO feet. 9 inches, by tosses of -fll feet, TM inches and l2l feet, 2 inches, respectively. Other people, mostly newconiers, uncovered talent to score points. This track squad rose to its greatest heights on May ISU. when it raced honie first in the Greater Hartford Meet. ln this IIIPCI Bullieley w as conceded but little chance to win by everyone except Coach Daly. It was the first Greater Hartford Meet that Bulkeley has ever won in inter-city competition. Bullieley retains permanent possession of the Cup and will hold the huge Colllfllll Plaque until next year. when we hope to see theni win it for the second year. The stars of the day were lid Korisky, who set a new city record in the jayelin throw with 1653 feet, John lledys, with a first in the shot put andlsecond in the discus. James Young, winner of 220. second in the lllll, and anchor man on the winning 880 relay teani, Aubert Young, third in the 880 and on 880 relay team, and Johnny Sullivan who took second in the niile with a new school record. At this writing Bulkeley is also undefeated in dual meets. The schedule follows: Bulkeley .......... 5315 Bulkeley. .. ...STVQ Triangular: Bulkeley ...... 35 City Meet: Bullieley ......

The next week a strong Westminster squad trod the team into the ground by a 33 to 0 score, and soon after, Weaver defeated us 28 to 0. The one victory of the four-game schedule came over East Hartford, when we defeated them 7 to 6. Hartford High, then at the top of the heap, did not even deign to schedule us. Soon, however, things changed. With more of a chance of being grounded in Coach Babe Allenjs system, and with veterans returning who could form a nucleus for each succeeding team, the Won and lost columns began to even up. There were always, of course, Hartford and Weaver. These two teams were waging battles every year for the city championship, ignoring Bulkeley. The first notice served upon them that we were in the fight was in 1928 When, under the captaincy of Joseph Cerasole, the team defeated Weaver, 6 to 0. ln 1929 the cup of happiness was full. We defeated Hartford High 6 to 0, tied Weaver 0 to 0, and became City Champions when Hartford High defeated Weaver. But this was not the end. Up until then the seasons were bad because the material was mediocre. Although defeating Hartford and Weaver, the rest of the season was usually pretty bad. Now the stage was set for our teams to aspire to the State Championship. In 1933, under Robert Grosch, Bulkeleyas greatest team was built. Winning five, tying two, and losing one-to Worcester High-the squad trampled on all opposition and was rated third in the State Championship race. Such individuals as Bob Grosch and Joe Cottone were given places on the All-State Team for their work throughout the season. The only team which has even approached that record is the 1935 squad. This team, composed of members of our class for the most part, won five games and lost two, climaxing its season with the great New Britain team, State Champions, before a crowd of 10,000. The scores marked up by this team are as follows: Bulkeley 33, Naugatuck 0, Bulkeley 0, West Haven 12, Bulkeley 14, Chapman Tech 0, Bulkeley 14, Hartford 6, Bulkeley 6, West Hartford 0, Bulkeley 20, Wez1s'er 0, Bulkeley 6, New Britain 27. Squads chosen by Coach Babe Allen consisting of the stars of the first five years on the first squad, and the last five years on the other, are as follows: 1926-1930 Squad, 1927-Paterno, Carella, and Landeeng 1928-Taksar, Cera- sole, Mondon, and Bonadiesg l,929fMcDermott, Farrell, and Crowley, 1930- Sylvester, Devery, Martin, and Charles Repass. 1931-1935 Squad, 1931 - Ronald Carneaug 1933 - William Kelly, Robert Grosch, Joseph Cottone, and Ernest Crassog 1934-Lester Garneau, Yacavone, and Minagilg 1935, Forte, Bernabeo, Flood, Mooney, Fritze, and Asklar. These stars have aided the course of Bulkeley football in the past, new ones must come forth for the future. The stage is set, only time will reveal the play. 138 O iK2,f9X5SkXx Q GY E' S599 Ox QM X393 as 'RSX X555 'Q 9 V SOCIETY HONOR THE YZ' A ANNNQQ5 HoNoR SOCIETY Q The Bulkeley Chapter of the National Honor Society was cllartered January 21, 1927-six months after the school was founded. ln consists of pupils from the junior and senior 1-lasses.
