CoyVinf h4 O O X u X a p-i D 2 Q ai a a o UJ h Tref, ace S our senior year at Bulkeley draws to a close, the four years of joys and sorrows that we have shared together fade into unforgettable memories of our high school days. In our minds will linger the numerous club activities in which we participated, the faithful work of our athletic teams, and the many friends we acquired. In order that we may recall them more vividly we have prepared for you the Senior Class Book. Before leaving, we Wish to express our appreciation to Miss Potter. Mr. Hart. Miss Alma Plumb. Miss Anderson, the Typing and the Art Staffs, and to all those who have assisted us so graciously in completing this Class Book. Our paths will vary as we depart from the portals of dear old Bulkeley High . but we. the largest class ever to graduate from this school, unite in extending our sincerest thanks and appreciation to Dr. Feingold, Miss Dargan. and the Faculty for the excellent foundation and guidance that we have received.

Feingold, Ph.D. Our Principal Uur nnap a l M essaae sacji Every generation has tts problems, but those which face the youth of this generation must seem to some of them, at least, to be far more perplexing than any which confronted their elders. The reason is that the problems of today constitute a challenge, not only to ambition and endurance, but to the very fiber of the soul. The two vital problems which confront young Americans today are those of making a career for themselves and preserving the cherished liberties of the country. Frank.ly. the prospects of earning a living do not seem to be as bright just now as they were several decades ago when international rela- tions were friendlier, when the flow of commerce was freer, and productivity was on the upward swing. Further- more, for the first time in centuries, a conflict in political doctrine has broken out in which human rights, human liberty, and human dignity are seriously being threatened. It IS expected that the younger generation, however, will steel itself and go forward fully determined to make life, liberty, and happiness more abundant for all. These are the cherished fruits which the fathers have won through strife and struggle and which youth is expected to preserve for all time. Up to the present you have observed the operation of human ideals largely in historical and imaginary situations. From now on, however, you will be expected to put these ideals into operation in real, concrete situations. It is my hope that your courage will never allow you to falter in the application of the principles of right, justice, mercy, and kindness in all your dealings with human beings at all times and in all places.

Representatives have been chosen by our class to record our history, foretell the future, dispose of our worldly goods, and present other forms of enter- tainment. As this is the largest class ever to be graduated from this school, we have found it necessary to seat the stronger half of our class in the audience and the more attractive half upon the platform. Since this is our final meeting as undergraduates, we hope that you will help us make this a most successful and enjoyable evening. Throughout our four years in this school, we have not only studied and worked, but we have experienced many enjoyable and unforgettable moments. We have made many life-long companions, and to you, parents, teachers, and friends, whose guidance has inspired us for the past four years, we wish to express our appreciation. And so, on behalf of my classmates, it is my privilege to bid you all a most cordial welcome to our Class Night exercises. T. Francis Murnane 14.3 CLASS ORATION OUR OWN TIME AND PLACE f NE hundred vears ago, Ralph Waldo Emerson gave utterance to the Literary Declaration of Independence when he delivered his oration, ' The American Scholar , at Harvard University. It was a clarion call urging us to stand on our own feet, to be independent, though not unconscious, of Europe and the past — to be independent of all but ourselves. It was Emerson who urged upon us that self dependence and self trust are vital parts of education. He said, Books are for the scholar ' s idle time — Life is our dictionary. Of course, he who puts forth his total strength in fit actions has the richest return of wisdom. Can we, who are now to leave high school, do better than follow his precept. Free should the scholar be — free and brave — and at home in his own time and place ? Our own time and place — the United States in the twentieth century. Some of us, if we live to be eighty, will see the century turn into the two thousands, but most of us will see no century turn. Our history lies within these nineteen hundreds. An old proverb savs, He who would bring home the wealth of the Indies must carry out the wealth of the Indies. What task have we here? What will our wealth from the Indies be? The first fact that is going to press itself upon most of us is the need to earn a living, to feed, clothe, and shelter ourselves happily. Our work may lie in the CCC Camp. Lowly, you say? Yes, perhaps, if it is lowly to be a factor in the preservation of the forests. Today we can say with pride that our forests are no longer in jeopardy. Earlier in our history as the colonies grew, axes were swung at the primeval forests in our own neighboring White Mountains until the slopes were stripped of trees. Today, though we take some 20,000,000 board feet a year, the growth of wood is amply protected by national and state law. We mav become factorv hands or insurance company workers. We may be no more than a rivet in the bridge spanning some broad river. We may have a big or a little part in some vast engineering project which represents what is taking place around us. In Colorado is Boulder Dam. something much greater than any sint ' le person, and yet now that it is completed, a man can command by a few dials enough power to release tons of water, turn huge turbines, and light great cities for thousands of people many miles away. Our trail may be that vaguely charted one of the air. When we see the green and red light of the mail plane soar above us at night and pass over the horizon, we silently salute the courage and strength these every day men have. In John Collins, the noted test pilot, we had one of these. Just recently he died as his plane, a screaming silver streak, crashed to the earth. Among us too are those who will travel the adventurous path — always in danger — sometimes, we trust, in safety. 144 In the United States, that land of broad rivers, vast prairies, magnificent mountains, and fertile valleys, we can travel far and still be at home, if we will. We can go from a tranquil New England town to a flat prairie city, and on to a western mining camp. New York, Chicago, San Francisco — New Orleans and Washington, D. C, completes another circle for us. In wealth and beauty our land is limitless. Most of us have visited the White Mountains and have been thrilled by their magnificence as we rode northward along highways, in many places cut through solid rocks. As we stopped at a lookout and gazed at the side of a huge cliff opposite, it seemed that nature had dropped a tapestry, tinted in yellow and red. with backgrounds of deep purple and flaming gold. As we went through the flume, we saw masterpieces of mosses and shrubs woven on granite and slung from all sides of the engulfing rockv gorge through which ominous sounds of rushing water roared. From the base of Mount Washington we viewed hills which looked like plum]) bankers with their heads in the clouds. No place for a banker ' s head, we admitted. But the scenic beauty and greatness compared to our frail bodies sent chills through us. Now, as we become more financiallv independent, we shall like to see, among other wonders of our country, the Grand Canyon of the Colorado and the South Dakota Black Hills. Three thousand miles east and west — three thousand miles north and south — we can travel among our own countrymen, no barriers stopping us, no visas neces- sary. As we read about the European countries and the tragedies of so many homes where the iron hand of militarism bears down on the people, we cannot help but thank God that we are Americans and live in this blessed country. Our democratic nation with its soul-inspiring freedom and its peace and tranquillity is far superior to the dictatorial countries of Europe, whose people are gradually being crushed in their straight-jackets of regimentation and domination. A dictatorship can mean only one thing — a people dismayed by doubts, relinquishing a birthright in the hope that an omnipotent ruler may at least put bread into their hungry mouths. In the years that we face, our self trust and self dependence must be the steady flame that burns for democracy. In knowing our own time and place we must realize that this life is but a series of interwoven paths along which we are pushed by time. Between us and our success is a labyrinth through which we must pass, and whether we are to find our way to accomplishment, fame, and success will depend upon our ability to overcome the blocks and bars that mean failure, and upon our ability to keep to the right path when an easy slip is near. It will be necessary for us to know the way. to know our time and place. Emerson says, The world, this shadow of the soul or other me, lies wide around. He does not picture for us the simple loneli- ness of solitary study that was the outlook of past scholars. Instead, ours must be a strenuous and encompassing life, and if we are to be at home in our own time and place, can we wish to be otherwise than strong to live as well as strong to work ? Thomas Sidney Mason, Jr. 145 CLASS ESSAY AND THY LIPS FROM SPEAKING GUILE OMEONE once wrote, The tongue — how small a thing, its work how vast! The tongue is very small in proportion to the rest of the body, yet, through its power of speech, it is capable of determining the difference between ha])piness and sorrow. A cheery greeting may brighten the day for a lonesome person; a kindly word of jiraise may encourage a timid soul: a few friendly words may mean much to a shut-in. On the other hand a malicious remark may cast a cloud of suspicion over a life; a sarcastic word may cause the loss of a dear friend; an angry, carping criticism mav arouse the fire of revenge and hatred in some breast. The damage that a thoughtless word may do is incalculable. In the book of Proverbs we find the statement, Life and Death are in the power of the tongue. In one minute a slanderous tongue can wreck a life ' s work, ruin a spotless reputation, or even blot out a life. Truly the tongue is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. From the time we were old enough to comprehend right from wrong, our parents have warned us. If you can ' t say something good about a person, don ' t say anything at all. Yet still the world is full of rumor, slander, and gossip. This glorious advantage of speech, which man alone possesses, should not be abused. Everyone realizes the evil the tongue can do, and everyone agrees that gossip, rumor, and slander only pollute our daily conversation. Yet wherever there is conversation such evils inevitably creep in — in street cars, at social gather- ings, at business conferences, in school, and even in church. Twenty centuries ago the Roman poet, Virgil, wrote: Rumor, than whom no other is more swift, bv exerting her agility, grows more active and acquires strength on her way; small at first through fear, soon she shoots up into the skies, and, hiding her head among the clouds, yet stalks along the ground. She is a monster, hideous, immense. By night, through shades of earth, she flies buzzing, nor inclines her eyes to balmy rest. Watchful by day, she perches either on some high housetop, or on lofty turrets, and fills mighty cities with dismay, as obstinately bent on falsehood and iniquity as on reporting truth. Who has described rumor and its evils better than this? Who can dispute its power after hearing Virgil ' s eloquence? If Virgil found this subject important, and if this evil has come down through the ages unchecked, I think it is important enough for us to consider as we go out of our carefree school life into the great world. 146 The need of checking this evil becomes more vital as civilization progresses. With the perfection of the radio, words take on a greater importance. Once, not so long ago, if our words, unwittingly, conveyed the wrong impression, we could be consoled by the fact that they could offend only those within range of our voices. Today the radio carries our words to countless listeners the world over. It is important to choose every spoken word carefully, for words have the power to cause great unhappiness. Words are more deadly than bullets, sabres, or bombs, whose work is quick and merciful. Words can make deep scars on human hearts, which neither medicine nor time can heal. A few words from the loose tongue of a jealous, angry, or embittered person can cause infinite suffering. Homes have been broken up by misunderstanding, and ghastly tragedies have happened, leaving orphaned children. Ail this strife because some unthinking persons could not control their tongue! And still these tongues go on wagging, leaving heart- rending distress, utter ruin, and even death in their wake. Plutarch wrote, When Demartus was asked whether he held his tongue be- cause he was a fool or for lack of words, he replied, ' A fool cannot hold his tongue ' . No one desires to be termed a fool. Let us, therefore, remember, as we take our places in the world, that the right words can mean so much, while the wrong may produce a lifetime of suffering. It is just as easy to say beneficial things as harmful ones. Can we not visualize the havoc the tongue can wreak? Can we not keep unvoiced thoughts that may further slander, rumor, and gossip? The power of speech was entrusted to us by our Creator. We must not betray this trust.

On the back ivall may be seen such signs as ' Quiet Please , or No Smoking. In the center of the front of the stage is a new, shining microphone. At one side of the stage is a sign which keeps flashing in red letters, On the Air. Stacked near the micro- phone are signs for directing the audience, such as Silence ' . Applause , or Laughter. Characters Look-back-a-scope Demonstrators — Barbara Newell and Paul Hickey News Announcer — Julius Rosen Women s Commentator — Marjorie Robinson Announcers for Have You a Treasure? — Otto Staehr and Barbara Sage. As the scene opens — News announcer walks up to microphone, looks at ivatch, and naves to side of stage. Lighted sign, On the Air starts flashing, and announcer holds up sign saying, Silence. ' Ladies and Gentlemen: For the first time in the history of broadcasting, a new development is being demonstrated h ere tonight, June 22, 1960. Our sponsors have given us the privilege of introducing to you the latest appliance to be attached to the microphone, the Look-back-a-scope. What could be more profitable or interesting to us as members of the Bulkeley graduating Class of 1938 and to you, the radio audience, than to look back to the fall of 1934, when this class entered Bulkeley? We take you back twenty-six years to the Bulkeley High School. Twenty-six years ago in 1934, we took up our pencils to start our work at Bulkeley High. We look back upon that year and upon our records established there with a strange combination of regret and joy. Within the walls of Bulkeley, we gathered facts and ideas; we argued and quibbled; we tasted of education and wisdom in our daily contacts with the men and women of our faculty, and in the written words of our books. During that year of 1934, we were Freshmen, and as such we didn ' t do much. It wasn ' t all due to shyness, but rather to regulations. We weren ' t permitted to try for positions on teams; we were prohibited from joining all upper class activity, for the majority of clubs have no place for lowly Freshmen. Finally, we got a start when the Junior Dramatic Club was formed. Under the presidency of John 150 ■R ' l. Carey, the newly-formed elub presented its first play, The Pampered Darling , with the support of Barbara Couch, Mary Meaney, Dorothy Nelson, Barbara Newell, Dot O ' Connor, Thomas Pappageorge, and James Scott. Once the ice of activity was broken, we branched out into many lines. From the poetic pen of Marjorie Fay there came her first published contribution to the Dial. Bill Cotter and Marjorie Robinson shortly afterwards became members of the same monthly periodical, and we were ablv represented on the Student Council by John M. Carey, John McNally, Daniel Ryan, Hope Barton, Marjorie Fay, Chester Frohock, Lillian Kukla, Richard McCabe, Florence Sandlierg, and Roliert Vannie. After that year we no longer had to cram for those dreaded exams, nor were we compelled to attend school in the afternoon, for Bulkeley was now on a single session. We survived that first year resolved to settle down and really go some- where in the Sophomore year. Our Look-back-a-scope now takes us back twenty-five years to the year 1935. When we returned in the fall — a greatly changed group — we said, We ' ll show Vm; now we know the ropes. It was at this time that our members were swelled by the addition of the first graduates of the Junior High System. From Burr Junior High they came, 171 strong. In that year Sonny O ' Neil started to lay the foundation for Bulkeley ' s tennis team, and John Carey showed the rest of the golfers how to hit a ball and keep it rolling. It was during this same Sophomore year that the Dial sponsored a Miss Bulkeley contest in which Catherine Kinsella, Ruth Hinkleman, and Florence Sandberg were among the first ten. At the same time, Julius Epstein and Thomas Pappageorge became members of the Editorial Board of the Torch, the same board of which they were to be editors in the Senior year. Pat Scandura, Eddie Casev, Tom Pappageorge, and Walter Galuszka were attempting to gain a place on Bulkelev ' s football team, but that was to come later. George Levesque did all right that year in basketball, as did Nick Pacelia. Bud Stevens, Dick Sutherland, Ed McCormack, Johimy Long. Jack McMahon, and Red Luther were doing their bit toward making Bob Daly ' s track team a winner. Time marches on. Look! now you can see Bulkeley twenty-four years ago. That was the fall of 1936, when we returned as jolly juniors . By that time we were really in the swim. Mary Lynch and Joe Nolan were elected officers in the Student Council, and manv of our classmates were climbing to positions of im- portance on the Torch and Dial boards. In track Bill Saillant, Bill Cotter, Nick Pacelia, Sammy Tolisano, and Jack McMahon helped Bob Daly to chalk up several victories. The team had tough sledding that year, however, being forced to walk to one of its meets, owing to two blowouts. 151 Johnny Miller, Chubby Bachand, Ernie Goodrich, Red Wilkos, and Al Puadziunas warmed the cockles of Babe Allen ' s heart bv bringing home the City championship in baseball. In tennis, Sonny O ' Neil and Otto Staehr won many a match, while John M. Carey was busy hitting that little white pill around to become our champion golfer. There — after all that, never let it be said that our class isn ' t sport-conscious. But don ' t think we didn ' t excel in other fields at the same time. Nineteen of us were elected to the Honor Society, and sixteen boys became Junior Ushers. Hope Barton and Stanley Krulikoski became members of the Inter-High Orchestra, and Thomas Mason and Florence Sandberg took part in the annual debate between the Boys ' Debating Club and the Agora. During our Junior year Parents ' Night and Sports Night were inaugurated, the former, to help parents to become better acquainted with our school, the latter, to help defray expenses of assemblies. Roller skating was the craze of the moment. It first invaded the Bulkelev gvm and won its popularity in January of this year. The childhood pastime in a new setting was sponsored by the Classical Club. The Torch got in on the ground floor and gave two skating parties. The ever-increasing crowds attested to the success of the ventures. The crowning event of the year was the Junior Prom with John M. Carey as chairman. Never before in the history of the school was there such a Prom. Little work was done in classes for a week preceding the event. Finally when the sunset settled down to dusk, stylishly dressed couples started to appear, and before long the strains of music made the huge crowd svncopation-conscious. For four hours — hours never to be forgotten — the greatest event of Junior Year continued. And now we gaze back with our mechanical device upon the last year we spent within the walls of Bulkeley, 1938! Seniors at last! After three years of struggling, we finally Ijecame the rulers of the school. No longer were we as green as the unripe apples that used to give us tummy-aches. At this time, we preferred to be addressed as Miss and Mr. No longer did we bother too much with homework, for we could think up, and get away with, rather expert excuses, excuses that practice has made perfect. We just couldn ' t miss an evening ' s entertainment for all the homework in the world. Ankle socks became far below the dignitv of senior girls, and so thev now wore silk hosiery. A few privileged members of our class even raised mustaches — members such as Al Granatek and Foo Mottram. We were now looked up to by the lower classmen, and their respect was sought and gained. Mary Meaney was elected president of the Girls ' League and the Honor Society. Frank Murnane led the football team and directed the activities of the Student Council. Tom Pappageorge became president of the Boys ' Club; Julius Epstein acted as editor of the Torch, while Russell Case and Morris Steinberg led the same paper to one of t he most successful of recent seasons. 152 The Dramatic Club, with Florence Sandberg as president, presented a real old- fashioned melodrama, with several members of our class in the cast, Shirley Hayes, Charlie McCarthy, Dot Hazard, the roving reporter, and Frank Mottram. The Agora and the Boys ' Debating Club presented an exceptionally interesting debate with Helen Rundbaken, Rose Worobel, and June Lawrence, representing the girls, and Russell Pyros, Norman Mann, Paul Hickey, and Marshall McGuire repre- senting and defending the sterner sex. One of the most popular boys ' clubs was the Legislative Club. With Danny Ryan and later with Roderick Murray as speaker, this club held many interesting meetings, some of them with the Agora and the History-Civics Club here at Bulkeley, and one with our neighbors in East Hartford. The Dial, headed by Marjorie Fay and Julius Rosen as editors and Bill Cotter and Joe Nolan as business heads, became a greatly improved periodical. So great was its increased popularity that the magazine had one of the best years in its evistence. The Mathematics Club, with Bulkeley ' s heartbreaker, Marshall McGuire, as president, and the German Club also came into existence during our Senior year. Also the Bulkeley Band, which henceforth will spur our teams on to victory with its martial fanfare, was formed, and gained such members as Stan Krulikoski, Maurice Guillet, and Russ Case. This year Florence Sandberg proved to be the most popular girl of our class when she was elected to represent Bulkeley in the D. A. R. contest. On the gridiron McGuire, Murnane, Bud Kinniry, Bachand, Joe Kiniry, George Levesque, Tom Pappageorge. and John F. Carey did themselves proud in behalf of Bulkeley and the class of ' 38. On the basketball court, Joe Noce, Levesque, Puadziunas. and Nickie Pacelia, comprising almost the whole Bulkeley team, gained many victories for dear old B. H. S. The competition for highest ranks was very keen that year. Out of the first and second scholarship prize winners of earlier years. Milton Gross. Mary Meaney, Virginia Okerfelt, Morris Steinberg, Sebastian Leggio, Marjorie Robinson, H. Jane Riley, and William CuHina, emerged our valedictorian, William Cullina, and our salutatorian, Helen Zieminski. At last we laid our pencils aside; our work was finished. From this you have probably gathered that our class was the peppiest, wittiest, smartest, most popular, most cultured, and above all the biggest bunch of bluffers and braggarts that ever spent four years in Bulkeley. We have given you a glimpse into the past. Now we shall sign off to let you hear the latest news of the day. Barbara Newell Paul Hickey 153 CLASS PROPHECY Announcer — Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Again through the courtesy of some of our leading business firms we bring to you the latest news, as of today, June 22, 1960. First, for the news from foreign lands. United States Ambassador Paul Hickey has been trying in vain for several weeks to come to a trade agreement with Dictator Julius Epstein. The dictator, however, refuses to cooperate. Ambas- sador William Cullina is busy in Spain, seeking aid for American citizens there who are endangered by the new Spanish revolution, instigated by Santiago Fernandez. Also from our foreign correspondent comes news of the Olympic games where Edward McCormack, Sam Tolisano, Edward Ward, and John Long are bettering the records that they set at Bulkeley. We have just received the following sports flash: Otto Staehr has at last reached Forest Hills — he is now ball-boy. And now for news of the nation. At Congress, that crusading Congresswoman, Rose Worobel, has started a new movement for shorter hours and more pay, urged on, one is led to believe, by the lobbying of William Mahoney. (Pause) Now for a word from one of our sponsors. Are you feeling weak? Are your muscles flabby? Do you lack ambition? Write today to that man of muscles and vitality, America ' s most perfectly developed man, George Levesque. We quote a few lines from one of the many testimonials he has received: Until I took your course I was small and puny and weak as could be. but today I am a man, signed Alphonse Puadziunas. Our news continues. From the scientific world comes the knowledge that Norman Mann has just pierced the fourth dimension, much to the chagrin of Sebastian Leggio who was working toward the same end. And for the newest work being done in the hospitals there are those up-and-coming nurses, Marjorie Grote and Dorothy Hansen, operating for the good of the world by removin g the vocal chords of Gino Tordonato. And for the ultra-modern in hospital technique, there is Dr. Milton Gross who has developed a system by which he skillfully cuts away at his patients to the soft and soothing rhythm of his own record of Saint Louis Blues. And now, another advertisement. Dr. Nicholas Motto, your dentist, says, Why be bored by other people? Come up and visit my office. To continue our scientific news, George Vibberts has recently patented the newest development in the automotive line, a Ford without springs. If we aren ' t mistaken, we thought he always had one. Also in the automo tive line is George Jacobsen, who has just patented the fool-proof automobile that he can drive just as well with one hand as with two. Ladies and gentlemen, trade at Pacelia ' s market, where the accounts are capably taken care of by Dot O ' Connor. 154 A flash from the courthouse: Attorney Robert Williams has just won the case of the State versus William Cotter. Cotter was charged with trying to vote twice. Judge Morris Steinberg rendered the verdict for the defendant. For all of you interested in art, William Cowing, Director of Art at the Avery Memorial, announces the arrival of a collection of modernistic paintings by Howard Russell. In the realm of science Thomas Beakey has produced a new invisible dandelion. For all the sports fans, we bring you the latest baseball score. The Hartford Laurels defeated the Wethersfield Stripers bv a score of 9-0. Starring for the Laurels were Pat Scandura, Steve Lynch, and Chubby Bachand. The manager of the Stripers, Alphonse Granatek, the strike-out king, says, We would have won, but my men couldn ' t get a break. Others claim, however, tliat he was blinded by his moustache. Googoo Warner has just won the national hog-calling contest. And, for a closing remark, it seems that Charlie McCarthy just can ' t live down that ugly rumor that he can ' t get along without Edgar Bergen. Keep tuned to this sta- tion, ladies and gentlemen, and you will hear the women ' s side of the news, with Marjorie Robinson, featuring the movie, stage, and radio previews. {Chimes) This is WBHS, Hartford. Marjorie Robinson: Hello, friends. Again I bring you the woman ' s side of the news. First tonight is the news that the women have invaded yet another field. This time there has been founded a new school for women barkers, started by Phyllis Watts, Josephine Guzzy, and Rose Cummings to train women for circus and carnival work. If you are fond of pets, if you are a lonesome old maid, if you crave affection, buy an alligator or cat from Helen Ramette ' s exclusive pet farm. City Clerk Jane Riley announces that William Saillant has been appointed Dog Catcher for the city. For a few choice remarks, I have selected these from Dot Hazard ' s gossip column: It has been rumored that Virginia Okerfelt has been planning on Reno- vating with Ernie Goodrich. She claims that he is fonder of baseball than he is of her. Also, Radford Luther is still blazing a trail after Jane HoUings. Ladies, have your beauty work done at Philip Prior ' s beauty shop, where recon- ditioning of all kinds is done by those experts, Irene Osias and Helen Rundbaken. We hear that the new comedy sensation, Shirlev Kuehnle, has just been awarded the role of stooge to Mr. Stoddard in his new plav, Could I Write a Book About Bulkeley! Another new sensation is Christv Discenza. who is reviving the old custom of street singing; and a young lady who has made quite a name for herself on the musical comedy stage is Mae Ward. For expert fitting of stylish clothes go to Shirley Russell ' s women ' s shop, where you will see the latest dresses modeled by Hortense Philbrick and Mary Lynch. You may also be interested in the children ' s department, where Shirley Temple clothes are modeled by Franny Winis, and Freddie Bartholomew suits for boys are modeled by Billy Yeagher. 155 Florence Sandberg, one of the leading women ' s college presidents, has just made a startling change in the curriculum by adding a course in How to be Non- chalant by Dockie Lindner. Another teacher is Irene Wheeler, who now has as her greatest problem child, Thomas Mason, III. For news of one of the newest plays on the New York stage, we recommend ' The Face on the Refrigerator Shelf written by Dorothy Sherwood and starring Roy Carcaud, who has as his new leading lady, Kay Kinsella. A few memories of the Class of 1938 were recalled recently, especially that of Mr. Fellows ' mortification over Doris LeGeyt ' s mistake with the petri dishes. And speaking of memories. Bud Stevens can ' t forget the day that Barbara Sage helped him with his Solid Geometry. Get your ice cream from those two good-humored Good Humor men, Danny Ryan and Jimmy Starr. And now for our choice of programs on the air. We think we ' ll give four bells to Charlie Slattery ' s new program with Adeline Gauruder very capably taking the part of Tizzy Lish, and Patty Ware taking the part of the human chatterbox, Arline Harris. For music, there is the delightful crooning of Annaruth Lawless, to the accompaniment of Russ Case ' s torrid trumpet and orchestra. For a best bet, we recommend that you listen to Have You a Treasure? which follows imme- diately after this program. Rev. Adam Smith ' s church services will be broadcast tomorrow morning. Good night. {Chimes) This is WBHS, Hartford. Otto Slaehr: We p resent now, Have You a Treasure? Millions of dollars are left every year to unknown people who never collect them. In order to get in touch with some of these people, we bring you this program where we find ancient wills and read them to you over the air. If you find yourself named, please com- municate with the executors of the will, so that you may claim your legacy. This time we have found a very old will. The writing is rather faded, but with great difficulty we can make out the following: Otto Staehr and Barbara Sage read the WILL. Otto Staehr: If, as we said before, your name appears, please contact the executors immediately. This concludes our broadcasting schedule for this evening. Good night. This is WBHS signing off.

Conneclieut. this twenty-seeond day of June, Anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-eight. Otto A. Staehr Barbara Sage POEM AT THE DAWN OF TOMORROW Down through the still and empty halls, Their silence itself a sound. Walk ghosts — ghosts — ghosts. And all these ghosts are memories — All broken fragments Of Yesterday. In quiet procession, one by one. Endlessly filing, Endlessly whisp ' ring. Reliving the years that have slipped from their grasp — The ghosts take this way of remembering. This is their way of recalling the Past, This is their way of bringing it back. I hear their whispering; Their murmuring. Like a fleeting dream. Now it is clear. Now it is fadnig. But never quite dying away. Like a bird from its ashes. Pictures arise From the muffled hush of the voices Endlessly murmuring. Endlessly whispering. The ghosts ever paint with a steady, sure brush Pictures of yesterday. But their pictures, too. Are memories. Memories Of other days When the still and empty halls Echoed the vibrant life within. Memories Of youthful friends. The true and the firm. The measure of Happiness; Memories, too. Of other ties, Not quite so steadfast and strong. Now dim in forgetfulness. These are the memories The ghosts recall. These are the pictures they paint. Out of the still and emptv halls To the sunshine of Todav, Walks Youth— Youth— Youth, Its Past behind, its eyes ever forwaid. Bright in the Dawn Of Tomorrow. Marjorie Fay 159 WHAT NOW, LITTLE SCHOLAR? Time, the child of great Infinity — Presiding o ' er the fates of men, alike — And so affecting them and their environment — Obtrudes upon the class of Thirty-Eight, Just as we pass another milestone now. Grave time re-echoes shrill to all the youth: What now, little scholar? Few from this great class awaken now; By Reverie the greater part is led. They wander through enchanted lands of Hope; And here amid these castles in the air, Familiar to all men, mature or young, Appears as if by Magic ' s hand. Time ' s sneer: What now, little scholar? Reality returns those led astray. And some desire a life more erudite; And gather ' round the gates of learning then; The rest soon flow and ebb with Fortune ' s tides — In the metropolis — on farm or sea — Yet sounds the faint re-echo of Time ' s taunt: What now, little scholar? Inquiry is in vain, my doubtful friends, Since future decades can reveal alone That which the Fates shall have in store for us On Life ' s great highway, or its brief by-path; And so far-reaching is Time ' s fearful scythe; There is no choice; his challenge take or shun- What now, little scholar? Adam Smith 160 FOOTBALL According to pre-season dope, the iMaroiin gridiron squad was supposed to have one of its most successful seasons, hut the advance information was quite false. The team started off with a bang, trouncing Crosby by the score of 13 to in a home game. Traveling to West Haven, the Maroon squad was beaten by a powerful West Haven team in the last two minutes of play. Thev then conquered Worcester by the score of 7 to 0. The first intercity game with Hartford High ended in a to tie in a thrilling game. The team then finished the season without another victory, but let it be said to the credit of the team that it had one of the best line defenses in the state. Bulkeley 13 Crosby Bulkeley 7 West Haven 18 Bulkeley 7 Worcester Bulkeley Hartford Bulkeley West Hartford 9 Bulkeley Hillhouse 13 Bulkelev Weaver 13 BASKETBALL With six lettermen returning from last year ' s basketball team, Babe Allen looked forward to the 1937- 38 season with high expectations. Noce, Puadziunas, Levesque, Grogan, Pacelia, and Granato formed the nucleus of this year ' s squad. The Maroons got off to a fast start, w inning their first three games by one-sided scores. Rockville, West Haven, and Trade were the victims of the fast Bulkeley quintet. Noce and Puadziunas led the Bulkeley attack with Murphy, a reserve, showing some classy basketball. The Bulkeley squad received its first set-back when it was defeated, 41-33, by a hard-fighting Blue and White team from Hartford High. In spite of this defeat, the Maroon and White hoopsters came back strong to chalk up two victories over Meriden and New Britain. One of the major upsets of the scholastic season occurred in the next game, when Weaver, a decided underdog, knocked off the highly-touted Bulkeley five by a 33-27 score. The Bulkeley team got started again and strung up seven consecutive wins. New Britain. Hartford, West Hartford, Meriden, Trade, Rockville, and Weaver succumbed to the fast, smooth-working Maroons. Al Puadziunas, who played well all season, was the hero of the Hartford High game. With B. H. S. trailing in the final seconds of the fourth 163 s u H J u tn 03 bj I h quarter, Al evaded his guard to toss in two quick hoops and give Bulkeley a 25-24 win. In the second Weaver game, the Green and White squad was trounced to the tune of 54-32. For tlie third time during the season, Joe Noce went on a scoring spree, swishing the cords for twenty-one points. A revamped West Haven quintet proved superior to our team in the return game. The downstaters gained revenge for an early season defeat by trouncing Bulkeley, 34-26. In the last game of the regular season. West Hartford was taken into camp by a 37-28 score. Babe Allen took the squad down to New Haven for the state Class A basket- ball tournament but the team was eliminated in the first round by a classy Naugatuck team, which was defeated only by Manchester in the semi-finals of the tournament. BASEBALL Because of the return of many veterans, the 1938 baseball season appeared brilliant for Bulkeley. In the first inter-scholastic game, Red Wilkos pitched Bulkeley to a 6 to 5 victory over Hall High. Trade was defeated 5 to 4 with Red Hannon on the mound, and Nonnie Zazzaro ' s hitting was the feature. Among the veterans who returned this year were Steve Lynch, John Miller, both chosen on last year? all-city team. Bill Milewski. Ed Bachand. Al Puadziunas, Ernie Goodrich, and Red Wilkos. New standouts were Joe Petrizzo, Gordon Guy, Red Hannon, and the brilliant Nonnie Zazzaro. The team took the lead for the city title by defeating Weaver by a score of 7-5. Then New Britain landed the team its second set-back, 4-1, at New Britain. But this did not stop our boys, for they outslugged Hartford High 8-5, and then defeated Trade for the second time by a score of 7-5. Once more the boys defeated Hartford High 4-1, in a well-played game. This victory brought the city title to Bulkeley for the second consecutive year. Next West Hartford handed the team a surprise defeat 7-5. And so, as we go to press, we find the team with the following record: Won 6 — Lost 3 — Won the city championship. Two left to play. Bulkeley 6 Bulkeley 6 Bulkeley 4 Bulkeley 7 Bulkeley Bulkeley Bulkeley Bulkeley Bulkeley 5 .1 .8 .7 .4 West Hartford 4 Hartford Trade 5 Norwich 5 Weaver 5 New Britain 4 Hartford High 5 Hartford Trade 5 Hartford High 1 West Hartford 7 165 TENNIS TEAM Tennis, at Bulkeley, serves a two-fold purpose: first, to promote a greater interest in the game among the students, and, secondly, for inler-scholastic competition. Mr. Williams took over the task of faculty adviser of the team thjs season, relieving Mr. Weaver, and did a mighty good job of it. The team was slow in getting started this year as only one letter-man, Sonny O ' Neil, returned from last year ' s team. The Maroon and White racqueteers, how- ever, had a fairly good season, with Sonny O ' Neil, Jim Scott, Otto Staehr, Phil Moreau, and Manager Bud Williams doing their best to uphold the high standards of Bulkeley. TRACK TEAM Prospects for the 1938 track team are very good. Tlie lettermen who are back to bolster Coach Daly ' s team are Capt. Ed McCormick, quarter miler: Richie Sutherland, dash man; Bill Cotter, javelin thrower; Bill Quinn, shot putter, and Rocco Fiorino, pole vaulter. Al Stevens, miler, is absent from the team and is unable to run this season. Two others who are returning are Sam Tolisano, who just failed to make his letter in the mile last season, and also Dominic Scandura, who was out with internal injuries last season. Bill Saillant is expected to give Bill Cotter much competition in the javelin throw. Johnny Long is performing capably in the quarter-mile and John Mahon looks very promising in many different events. Other seniors who show much promise are Eddie Ward, Stan Straite, John Scully, Gould Warner, Maurice Guillet, Owen Billings, Leo Czarnota, Christy Discenza, John Bogan, Bradford Luther, and Roland Gero. A good season is expected. Results of the meets to date are as follows: Bulkeley SSi g East Hartford 50% Bulkeley 45 Middletown 59 366 a, u ca u as o z u ft I- u u o w BS o z o I HONOR SOCIETY The Bulkeley Chapter of the National Honor Society was chartered in January, 1927. Its purpose is to promote leadership, to encourage scholarship, to arouse the desire to perform worthy service, and to stimulate the development of character in the pupils of Bulkeley.

It endeavors to create among the boys of Bulkeley High a public opinion that shall at all times rally to support of the school when the opportunity to serve is offered. Under the capable guidance of Dr. Mahoney, the club has presented many interesting meetings, with such well-known speakers as William Lee, Captain Langrish, Mr. Sclnvinn, and Mr. McGuire.
