So that we may always have these emper- iences fresh in our minds, we have compiled this Glass Book, which we hope'will serve as a happy reminder of our high school life. We wish to -'thank the following people, without whose eyforts the Glass Book would not be what we have sincerely endeavored to make it: Dr. Feingold, for his ever-ready advice 3 Miss Potter and Mr. Hart, for their generosity in giving so many hours and such helpful suggestions as advisers of the Editorial and Business Boards g Miss Alma Plumb, supervisor of the Art- work, Marjorie Galano, Rose Fanelli, and Olara Vasques, our efficient typists,' and the secretaries in the office for their consideration and patience. We hope that in future moments of reminiscence, you, the members of the Class of 1940, may enjoy this Class Book as much as we have enjoyed preparing it for you, and that in years to come, we may all still think of owr- selves as the Class of 1940, with our loyalty and friend- ships unimpaired.

As our ances- tors had suffered and endured hardships to gitfe us this heritage, so we would newer surrender it without a struggle, no matter how chal- lenging and bitter it might be. VVe are, therefore, very naturally and Very properly perturbed when we see the two remaining outposts of deuzocracy located on the European continent challenged and shaleen to their foundations. llnder ordinary circumstances graduation from high school would be an occasion for jnbilation among parents and elzildren. l'nder the present circuinstances the ominous threats which hang o-z'er the heads of all democracies and the ever widening war clouds must hai2'e a sobering effect upon all thinlciug people and especially youth, since youth bears the brunt of all wars. ll'e can only hope that the disaster which is de'z'astating tlze lfuropeau countries and sapping the energies of their people will not reach our shores and that we will not be called upon to rush once more to the blood-soaked battlefields of Europe to defend freedom's cause. The best way to realise that hope, however, is to be so united in our ideals of Amricanism, as expressed in the Preamble to the Constitution and in the Bill of Rights, that no foe of either democ- racy in general or America in particular would dare to launch and attack upon us. This is the clzallenge to American youth as it emerges from school and college-newer to lose the vision of their fathers of a peaceful, united, and free America. GVSTAVE A. FEINGULU 9 v 8 AOA?

Ll? lm! miion OUR CIVIL LIBERTIES NE pfvthe most poptilar radio programs on the air. today is known as We-the People'. It IS most probable that this justly popular program appropriates its title from the Preamble to our Constitution. for in this instrument of our government the significance of the words, Hwefthe People lies in the fact that the rights and privileges embodied therein have their source and wellspring in the people. Our founding fathers shrewdly foresaw that the maintenance of our democracy would be insured only if the civil liberties of the individual were guaranteed and protected. There- fore. the Hill of Rights. one of the triumphs of civilization. came into being. In this group of laws such inalienable rights as freedom of speech. freedom of con- science. freedom of press and assembly. are zealously guarded. for they are certainly starry constellations in our political firmament. And. since ours is a popular form of government, great heed must be paid to these civil liberties. For the people. in whom these rights and privileges are justly vested. become the motivating force of our government. Vfihen these civil liberties are fully enjoyed by the masses of the citizenry. we actually have govern- ment for. by. and of the people. We cherish dearly the fact that here in the United States our leaders may influence us. but they cannot command us. Realizing the true importance of our inalienable rights. we may well ask the question, HI-Iave our civil liberties ever been encroached upon? It is distressing to reply that they have been abridged in many cases and at different times. I shall discuss the status of our civil liberties during peacetime. since in war every nation becomes virtually a dictatorship. Permit me to review a few instances which clearly reveal a definite encroach- ment upon the civil liberties of the individual. Recently we saw an example of this in the actions of the Dies Committee. All are aware that this committee aims mainly to eradicate un-American activities. It is not surprising. then. that such a group engaged in so comprehensive and sweeping an inquiry should in its zeal overstep the bounds of propriety. Just recently Judge Welch of the Federal District Court of Philadelphia ordered the arrest of two agents of the Dies Committee on the charge of conspiracy to violate the Bill of Rights. These two government agents authorized the raid by twenty-five policemen of a Communist office. This was a clear-cut infringement upon the right of private property. The Judge very 'I46 -,gf -14-,n:1'fv , 'I 11 j'j:f'.+'FT'Q? 't4'Q?' 'H f 9 Q' ,jf , .L U' VZ 79 1 . X go ' f I Q X63 ' KX Le carefully pointed out that the arrest was not a denial of the aims of the Dies Committee, but rather a strenuous objection to the Committeeis manner of procedure. This illustration reveals that such an authority acting arbitrarily and high- handedly may prove to be just as un-American as the disintegrating forces it seeks to abolish. The recent Paterson. New Jersey. silk strike is an outstanding example of grievance over the abrogation of civil liberties. The strikers were forcefully pro- hibited by the municipal police from entering their own private hold, on the pretext that they were so aroused that they might cause civic disorder if permitted to assemble. The strikers were aided in their fight for the principle of freedom of assembly by various organizations interested in safeguarding civil liberties. Finally. through dogged persistence on the part of all those concerned. the strikers were granted their constitutional right to assemble. As regards our love of freedom of speech, I would relate the rather humorous incident which occurred in Cleveland a few years ago. Numerous societies. resenting the trampling of the grass in the parks by people who were wont to listen to the rantings of soap-box orators there, complained vehemently to the Mayor. whose emphatic answer was. 'Tree speech is more important than grass,'. We have in contradistinction to this laudable example the dubious position taken by a mayor of one of our large Eastern cities when he obstinately denied the right of freedom of speech to those whose opinions were at variance with his own. The Supreme Court finally ruled his position untenable. thereby providing for the necessary enforcement of the Bill of Rights. - We have also innumerable other instances, which I might mention briefly, that are directly related to this topic. For one, a Massachusetts highschool girl was expelled from school because of her refusal to salute the American flag-a refusal predicated by a religious scruple. We also frequently hear of the censorship of books, plays. and movies. outstanding examples being the questionable plays, Tobacco Road, Yes, My Darling Daughter, and Birth of a Nation. From these examples we are prone to ask: Why are our civil liberties curtailed? As regards this interesting and extremely important question we find that there are two intelligent viewpoints held by equally zealous factions. One group main- tains vigorously and patriotically that radical or disintegrating ideas must not be allowed to permeate the democratic spirit of our nation. This faction advocates censorship. the suppression of civil libertiesg the other group maintains fervidly, and with equal patriotism, that our civil liberties must never be abridged, for in abrogating the civil liberties of one person, the civil liberties of all are endangered. Its members further contend that in attempting to stifle the theories of radicals we are in effect propagating them, for we make the leaders martyrs to their cause. 147 X' fi . xcllf X xv 1. 1? They cry that America is in more danger from suppression than from violence. Hsuppression breeds revolution is their motto. Here we have an interesting question of paramount importance to every American. Today, when so many attempts are being made to establish Hismsu in the United States, when so many prominent citizens are summoned before the much-discussed Dies Committee, when there are more disastrous labor conflicts than ever before, this question of civil liberties is certainly relevant to our current problems. If answered. it may be the solution to many of them. Therefore. it is the duty of each of us to seek the best answer to this very contentious question. Regardless of the opposing viewpoints concerning our civil liberties. we observe. from careful examination of the question, that there are certain obvious factsg namely, the truth will be revealed only when there is free expression of all view- pointsg liberty misused becomes Mlicensefig and most important of all. democracy will prevail only if we. the people, accept our greatest responsibility. namely, that of managing the government. Finally, may l conclude from the diverse illustrations presented that not only is nEternal vigilance the price of libertyn, but that cherished blessings secured for us in the Bill of Rights must be constantly nurtured and zealously guarded. even in halcyon days of prosperity, by a liberty-loving citizenry ever alert to potential sedition in order that the beacon light of freedom may beam with an incandescent glow. shedding its brilliance over all the land and warming the hearts of MUS, the people. JAMES MICHAEL DESMOND 148 Q' r- fia. , Xqk ' by 1-le lam may FOSTISRED PHOBIAS 3 S America becomes increasingly complex-conscious, psychoanalysts can -is feel assured of a steady market for the hundreds of dollars' worth of sympathy which they lavish each day upon anxious patients. Rather rare is the modern American without some sort of phobia-be it Vit l. 1 L it ' . 'ffl X.. YJ!!! Lf? fr 0 aversion to elevators. passionate devotion to radio serials, or antipathy to prunes. Before the psychiatrists, heyday, most people regarded such harmless eccentricities as natural. Since World War I, however, the average citizen, often afflicted by nervous fears. has allowed his prejudices to grow into healthy-or unhealthy-obsessions. Although ungrateful alienists, who profit richly from the phobias of others, condemn these complexes as hindrances to personality, their effect is often beneficial. Let us consider what society has gained from the discovery of the phobia. W'e now realize that the milkman who whistles HigolettoH beneath our window at four A. M. is a frustrated musician who must have an audience, however unwilling. Does this make us appreciate his whistling? No. But in self-defense we may develop a complex which makes it necessary for us to hear opera before dawn. Thus, everyone is happy until the milkmanis route is changed. Before the benign Sigmund Freud explored the hitherto indifferently beaten path of mental mazes, poor old Samuel Johnson believed himself partially insane because he was conscientious about tapping with his cane every fence post he passed. Today a beaming psychiatrist could inform the harried genius that he was not demented but possessed of an extraordinary phobia caused by an event of his baby- hood. Given a complex to nurse, Johnson might have been happier, but he might also have been too absorbed with himself to write, which would have been unfortunate for Mr. Boswell. A well-developed complex provides its victim with a mysterious feeling of importance, a comfortable sense of martyrdom, and the happy knowledge that he is unique. It is more practical than a hobby, for one must sometimes leave his stamp album at home, while his passion for talking about himself is constantly with him to cheer his lonely path. flndulgence of this pastime will quickly provide him with a very lonely path., Phobias are conversational gold mines. A patient who detests zebras may know that the striped creatures in the zoo are unpleasantly reminiscent of the 149 Q' f :,V',., 2 'Q Xqk Z X? Le uniform his Uncle Si received when he was caught moonshining. creating an un- pleasant scandal back home. ln the rough. this anti-zebra complex is not only useless but embarrassing. A good alienist. however, consulting weighty tomes. deduces that his patientis grandfather feared the stripes on a barber-pole and that hatred of that pattern is a family failing. With a song in his heart. the grateful citizen departs. begging the doctor to discover the cause of grandpa's phobia, while the psychoanalyst decides that he will be able to afford that new radio which he so acutely desires lit's almost a complex with himl and also a phonograph attach- ment. Children. as a class, are the chief beneficiaries of our knowledge. Under the tolerant gaze of science, juvenile wilfulness is the aftermath of frustration fthe parent's faultj. Destructiveness can be only the result of suppression-again trace- able to parental stupidity. It would not be surprising if the next generation should experience a revolt of Organized Childhood against Organized Parenthood, or vice- versa. Meanwhile the present armed truce supplies the magazines with excellent material. In the benighted age before phobias had taken their rightful place in civil- ization. two gentlemen walking across a narrow bridge might, like Robin Hood and Little John, come to blows over the right-of-way. This was barbarous indeed, but eventually each could reach his destination, one walking. the other swimming. This evening, however, if two corpulent individuals. each with a deep rooted complex against allowing the other to precede him. wished to board a trolley car, traffic might be delayed until the authorities intervened or the step was widened, for the gentlemen would respect one anotherls dilemma. Their families. waiting impatiently for dinner, might reasonably question the value of scientific enlighten- ment. ln common with our ancestors, we are inclined to accuse the world and the tempo of the times for the greater proportion of our annoyances. More than a thousand years ago, Cicero, ignorant of swing, parking tickets. and soap contests, did likewise. It is possible that our uneasiness may come, not so much from the world, abused planet, as from our ceaseless attempts to be carbon copies of each other. When people are so busy doing the conventional thing. so chary of being thought peculiar that they have not time to be themselves, a complex or two is almost a necessity. When we sacrifice our individuality we cannot become really acquainted with ourselves. If we have looked at life more from the view point of the third person plural than from that of the first person singular, we shall inevitably feel bewildered at some time. No matter what we do in life. there will be critics to comment upon our manner of doing it. He who dares to be different, to act inde- pendently, will have distinguishing characteristics-how uninteresting he would be if he had notl-but he will be free from artificial phobias. The supposedly nqueerv 150 Q' IQ-,., -7 QF? o 7 '?. Xqk X 1? LH people have contributed most to the world. Certainly, forgetful of the neighbors' watchful eyes, they have been happiest. Which would you prefer-an existence of somber sanity, or a life of cheerful dementia? Psychoanalyst, I defy you! Phobias, I must deny you! Mental quirks do not affect me. Alienists need neler protect me. My ego couldn't be augumented By the thought that Ilm demented. I could write a treatise formal On the fact that I am normal. It is never my intention To be bullied by convention. Fear of complex have I none- The doctor says I haven't one!

Announcer-HCood evening, ladies and gentlemen! Station WBHS will en- deavor this evening to offer you a novelty in broadcasting. Sitting beside me in the studio are the two renowned scientists, Dr. Hickey and Dr. Wilkos. As you undoubt- edly know, these two doctors have been conducting numerous experiments in an attempt to construct a machine that will enable them to look into the past and uncover its most minute details. At last this machine has been perfected, and in a' few moments our two distinguished guests will utilize it to look back on the four most exciting years of their lives. The staging of this experiment will necessitate complete silence on the part of the studio audience, as any interruption may prove fatal to the broadcast. l now present to you Dr. Hickey and Dr. Wilkosf' Setting-The historians are seated at a desk mike in front of a weird looking machine which, when in operation. supposedly produces a written record, in exact detail, of the occurrence which the operator wants revived. Historian-c'Thank you, Mr. Announcer, and good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This machine, if operated correctly, will give us, expertly typed, an exact statement of any historical fact from any designated period. For this demonstration, Dr. Wilkos and I have chosen to look back on our days spent at Bulkeley High School. l have only to push this lever to produce our first bit of historical data, and now if Dr. Wilkos will be so kind as to read it, we will endeavor to bring back some of the more important events of our high school years. The class of 1940 was not present at Bulkeley in its entirety during the freshman year, because many of the pupils were obliged to attend a junior high school. The fact that we were merely a group of obscure lower classmen greatly hindered our progress in school activities during that year. We finally made a start when lVlidgei' Johnson was among the first to see her name in the dirt', column of Bulkeley's ever-popular periodical, the Torch. Florence Fortin, Beatrice Lieb, Robert Nelson, and Vliilliam Starkey were admitted to the Junior Dramatic Club, and later on Florence and Beatrice played minor roles in the production Apple Blossom Time. None of our classmates were able to penetrate the athletic field as yet, because they were still puny freshmen. ln this stage of practical non-existence, the first chapter of our high school days came to a close. 156 Q' 63-., E Ni? Q 'Q Xqk f xv LE After surviving that first year, we resolved to settle down and really go some- where in our sophomore year. As if to reinforce our determination, the class membership was swelled by the addition of the Burr Junior High graduates, about two hundred strong. It was during that year that our genial Genevieve Devanney first took an active part in the Girls' League. At the same time, Alice Skinner, Art Brink, Bob Steele, and Jack Rescott, as sophomore members of the Student Council, were of great assistance to the Council in superintending its many social affairs. In that year, the Dial published the first of many literary contributions by the talented Beatrice Lieb. Joe Garvey, 'fliuckyl' DePaolis, and Jimmy Walker were attempting to gain a place on Bulkeley's football team. On the baseball field the Bulkeley nine enjoyed an excellent season, winning the city championship for the second consecutive yearg but most of our classls talented baseball players, by the law of gravity, vtere seated in a comfortable position on the bench. The beginning of our junior year found us firmly entrenched in admiration of our new. thoroughly established position as upper-classmen. After this period of selfsadmiration, we finally settled down to continue our participation in school actlvities. In December, 1938, the Student Council instigated a novel plan of student government, and a Student Court was also established. We had as our only girl representative Elizabeth Winter. Shortly afterward, the Senior Dramatic Club produced The Late Christopher Bean . in which Inez Hansen and David Gordon had prominent roles. On the Torch board, Emma Sena and John Kenyon. through their diligence and proved ability, were steadily progressing upward. An outstanding social event of the season was the third annual Parents' Night, on which the parents of the students were entertained as guests. At one of our many assemblies, a spirited debate was carried on between members of the Agora and the Boys' Debating Club, in which Rosemary Birmingham, Beatrice Lieb. and Jimmy Desmond upheld the honor of our distinguished class. Finally that long-awaited event, the Junior Prom, arrived, and a very competent student. Bernard Mullins, was chosen chairman. Other committee heads included: Ruth Carter, Virginia Dolliver, William Starkey, and Agnes Rekas. During this year. a projection machine was installed, made possible through the organizing genius of our Principal and the loyalty of the former graduating classes. We enjoyed the educational advantages no less than the entertainment made possible by such a piece of equipment, of which we are proud to say Bulkeley High School is the only possessor among the schools of the state. 157 Q? si If .ZX Q Kyle' Z Nqk X Q 1.9 Also in the course of that eventful year we saw the opening of the newly- equipped, modern clubroom, thanks for which goes to the class of 1938. Starting that year and continuing into our senior year. the corridors and rooms received their share of W, P. A. improvement in the form of new and sparkling paint. In company with the W. P. A. workers. we found ourselves in our last year as full-fledged seniors. The first major social highlight of our senior year was the presentation of the tenth annual Torch Night. The success of the show was assured. with such outstand- ing classmates as Clare Connor. Beatrice Lieb. Betty Due, Phyllis Brewer. and John Kenyon acting as directors. The much publicized Inter-Club Dance proved to be one of the outstanding social successes of the year. Under the sponsorship of the Senior and the Junior Dramatic Clubs. the Starlight Players of Pawling. New York. gave a performance of the comedy. The Devil's in the Pantry. Later on. the Senior Dramatic Club produced two hits. in both of which talented Rosemary Birmingham played the leading role. receiving capable support from Mary Bloise, David Cordon. Virginia Dolliver. and Paul Sessa. The following prominent students were elected to office in the major clubs of the school: Cirls' League. Genevieve Devanneyg Boys' Club. Clarence Custafsong Honor Society. Florence Forting Student Council. James Desmondg Girls, Leaders Corps. Clare Connor. Beviving an old custom. the Classical Club gave a matinee dance which proved to be a great success. Emma Sena and John Kenyon were elected co-editors of the Torch, and Mary lVlacchi and Claire Wilcox were promoted to co-business managers. Beatrice Lieb and Marion Cwikla were elected editor and business manager of the Dial respectively. Graduation activities soon became the most important and foremost thought in our minds. Emma Sena was proclaimed valedictorian. and Inge Wagline salutatorian of our class. Florence Fortin was also elected editor-in-chief of the Class Book. with Phyllis Fowler as assistant editor. The editorial board contained the names of Paul Sessa. Marion Cwikla. Thomas Bailey. John Gleason. Betty Due. and Santo Conforto. We cannot omit the series of Senior teas which were enjoyed by the entire class and suavely managed by our committees. As the time allotted to us for our experiment is nearly consumed. we find it impossiole to name everyone who could have contributed to this history, but we can hardly leave without expressing our sincere hope that the class of 1940 have continued to make history in all their later encounters with society. 158 Q fy, E co?

We bring you now a special program of piano music by Miss Sylvia Zaretsky, well-known for her interpretations of popular music on the blacks and whites. Miss Zaretsky ..., labout 15 seconds of piano musicl. B. L. M.-Ladies and Gentlemen! We interrupt this program to bring you a special news bulletin, flashed from Among Larson, the fire-bug weather man of the U. S. Weather Bureau, who warns Hartford and vicinity of an oncoming hurricane about to strike the city. The cause is undetermined as yet, but geologist Harry Homicki expects that Belly Due is waging a terrific verbal battle via phone with Miss Claire Wilcox, society editor of the '5Miami Bla-Blafl edited by that nationally known lady-killer, Skeets Gustafson-who evidently got his directions mixed. and is working in Florida instead of Canada. Here are some local news flashes pertaining to the impending disaster. Mayor James Michael Desmond is at present holding a heated debate with William Landrigan of the Washington Weather Bureau, asking him to postpone the hurri- cane, claiming that the citizens of Hartford are unprepared. We have been notified by Dr. Vincent Williams, cut-up, that he is offering his services. and that his office is open to all unfortunates. Although scientist Chris Kilby has an idea which, he asserts, will turn the storm off its course, movie- star Lillian Lamarr', ,lalbert is still offering her Hartford residence for shelter. It is reported that Agnes Rekas, prominent city beautician, is on the brink of a nervous breakdown, and that the Wm. Ryan Ambulance is transferring her to the hospital at the rapid rate of two words a minute. Now to Mary Macchi and some more news of the storm. M. M.-Ladies and Gentlemen! We read this flash just in from New Haven where the storm is lashing the city in all its fury. LeConche's Super Barber Shop was last seen floating through space toward Helleris Music Store where Ruth Carter features popular tunes. We wonder if this can be blamed on the hurricane or on .lohn Brennan, state tennis champion, who was seen getting a shave in the shop. The water has been rising rapidly, and Thomas Stapleton, the temperamental artist, was sitting serenely in a row boat off shore, trying to sketch a surrealistic masterpiece of the wind. Back to Hartford and Bulkeley High School, where Bill Brodeur, Manager of the printing and mechanical drawing departments, is now printing up a special preview of the storm. Barbara Felletter, Dr. Feingold's secretary, is so excited over the news of the storm which is due any minute that she is at present juggling 159 ix Zia 3-. , se 'Q xqlf X X? 4.

M.-Flash! l The water has reached the State Theatre. where fohn Gleason. the stage manager. is hanging from the chandelier while his chorus girls, including the dance team of Martel and Malloy, singer Helen Baum, and Doris La Magdelaine. the glamour girl of 1950, are trying to pacify him. Paul Sessa is practising a new dance routine on stilts to keep from getting his feet wet. The wind has reached a terrific velocity. and the Travelers Tower. swaying perilously. is playing Kiss Mew with Main Street, where foe Higgins and Art Frez. managers of the Palace and White Tower respectively, are feeding Pinocchio ham- burgs to keep him quiet. The storm seems to be at its peak. for we see the Ruth Armstorn, Barbara Allen Antique Shoppew sitting right on Central How where Louis Peterson. musical maestro of WBHS symphony orchestra. is trying to pur- chase Wm. Tell's bow and arrow which he intends to use as a weather vane. The Don Powers Exterminating Co. is attempting to drive all the jitterbugs from the Treworthy estate. in the fear that the Mad Russian. Edward Marchocki. might carry her off to Bugvaria. It is reported that Tetraulfs Building Corp. has been swept down the Connecticut River but is successfully Hsubmariningv for New London Harbor where all is calm. and that the Ray Zak Undertaking Parlors have sent a hearse toward Hartford to bring back the glowackus which has been captured and slain by George Smith, inventor of the New Demure Dimple Machine. A report from the local weather bureau states that the storm is rapidly subsiding and that within a short period of time the hurricane will be over. M. M.-There are many people now out on Main Street looking things over. and by things I mean a demonstration being staged by Harold Baumstein, who is selling hurricane insurance and promises to give away a free bottle of Coca-Cola with every policy to make sure that his clients will have enough strength to coun- teract the next hurricane that comes their way. Nurse Phyllis Brewer is applying artificial respiration to Richard Calvin, photographer, who fainted when a mouse. believed to be Monty. ran by him on his way to Bulkeley. Miss Brewer's superior. Dr. Kenyon, is enjoying himself by talking over the damage done by the already abated storm with Midge Johnson, the mayor's secretary. Emma Sena and Martha Wells, both social workers. have decided to help Frank Haynes, French interpreter. 160 N-'aj'-'Far sg. 9 ..aGgX'rv'2-fgzfafggfwfggv 'fi mfiff:fv,4.,.

Capt. foe Danyliw of the Army Reserve Corps is in charge of the militia and is having some trouble with Ethyl Hemphill. eccentric cow-girl singer. who insists on riding her horse on skis through the Hood area. A local bulletin announces that the State Theatre stage show. in order not to lose money. is holding a show right out on Village Street. because the theatre itself is flooded. As an added attraction. the revue is featuring Heartbreaker Hatchi' who has recently given up the classics for swing and is losing no time in uflappin' It Up. for he has already joined Wes Oliverls Band as a distinguished piano-tuner. There is quite a crowd attending the performance. and among the multitude is Barbara Duguidfone of the chorus dancers in N. Y. Radio City Music Hall- who is escorted by that golf expert.

M.-The excitement has abated and the citizens of Hartford are now doing what they can do relieve the situation and to estimate the approximate damage from the storm. Herbert Linder. well-known for his chain stores, reports 35.000 damage done to his local establishment. the Hartford Market. It is reported that the Bucior Chemical Laboratory. which is seriously concerned about this phenomenon of storms. is now working on a concoction to reduce the overflow of vitality in the effervescent Misses Chamberlain and Curley, telephone operators, who were also waging a terrific verbal row shortly before the storm and are now being held by the Chief of Police.

'Q 'X XZEQ ' tb me FOOTBALL S the Maroon and White began the season it was little anticipated that the campaign would be so poor. A great many of the stars had graduated, but there still was a strong nucleus. including Joseph Garvey. George Croskritz, Captain Jarvis Kinsler, Francis 0'Donnell, and Anthony DePaolis. A reason which might be given for the rather dismal record was the lapse of time between games. Weather conditions caused the postponement of games and practice for weeks at a time. and the team was not able to secure sufficient practice and experience. The team journeyed to West Haven for the first game and was shut out. 19 to 0. In the next game. which was played at home. the team fought the Hartford High eleven to a 7 to 7 tie. This was a very tightly played contest, and good performances were given by Robert Allen. John Watts, John Hickey. and James Walker. This was quite a disappointment because of the alleged weakness of the Hilltoppers. Two defeats followed in a row. A heartbreaker was lost to Weaver by the score of 12 to 6. and Hillhouse managed to squeeze over two touchdowns to better the Allen-men, 12-0. The first and only victory was gained when the team beat West Hartford, 14 to 12. This was a fiercely played tussle and the players came through in fine fashion. Standing out in the memories of all members of the class will be the game with the powerful New Britain combine. Although they lost the game. the Bulkeley lads showed their potential ability by holding the high scoring New Britain backheld scoreless throughout the first half. It was only a matter of superior substitutes that enabled the Sheamen to push over the two scores which they did garner. There are several lettermen left over from this year's squad and it is hoped that they will help stow away many a victory for the Bulkeley cause.

They expect to retain the championship since they have a strong hold on it now after their wins over Weaver and Hartford Trade. The sluggers Dana Newell and Fred Seraphin each are batting around 500 per cent. which is a most enviable batting average in any league. Babe Allen also has a wonderful combination in the Connelly brothers, Bill and John. Bill plays third base. while his older brother John is at second. Alden Werneking. a veteran for two years. is the main stalwart of the team when he plays behind the plate. He is one reason why the pitchers are doing so well on the mound this year. Levesque and Conforto are the leading hurlers along with Dick Calvin, who also has been a great aid in the pitcher's box. The team thus far has wins over Hall, East Hartford twice, Weaver, and Hartford Trade. With this clean record the team is expected to go on to great heights. since they have not lost a game this year. Graduation will take about ten lettermen. which will cripple the team for next year, especially in pitching.

Joseph Garvey, William Dinnie, Richard Kelly. and Paul Klapprodt. veterans from the previous year's squad, finished the 1939-1940 campaign with a total of four victories and eight defeats. The team used a man-for-man defense, and when on the offense the forwards did most of the shooting and scoring. leaving the work of bringing the ball up the floor to the hard-working guards. 171 1 Qreisggzef-f X7 err? if The team opened the season with a defeat at the hands of New Britain. A closely played contest, it was not until the closing minutes that the Hardware City team pulled away to victory. Four more defeats followed in succession, the con- tests being lost to Weaver by the score of 35 to 25g to Hartford Trade. 39-27g to Hartford High. 28-253 and then to Meriden. 22 to 20. The quintet threw off this losing streak by topping the Trade five. which had previously beaten them. by the score of 25 to 17. Again Dame Fortune took a turn, and the team lost three more straight games to West Haven. New Britain. and Weaver. The scores were respec- tively 37-29. 31-26. and 26-25. Then. finishing the campaign in whirlwind style. Babe Allen's charges managed to capture victories over West Haven. 25 to 201 Hartford High. 43-34, and Meriden. 32-l44. ln these tussles the boys enjoyed revenge because of the fact that they had been beaten earlier in the season by the losers. The team played exceptionally well together. and on no occasion was there a show of bad sportsmanship. The attendance at the games was large. showing that the school was behind the team one and all.

All but three oppo- nents had perfect records for the entire season. so under those conditions our team had a very difficult schedule to play. From last year's squad three lettermen returned. Bill Starkey was elected Captain. since he had played steady tennis in U2 Q' Zje., f: N? 22449- lil? every match. He was the only former underclassman to play as a regular, and he tied for the most wins with Joe Curley. The other two lettermen were Jack Watts and Bob Steele, who performed well. Jack Watts will return next year, and the team will undoubtedly be built around him. This year's squad was the largest in the history of the school. Along with Captain Bill Starkey, Jack Watts. and Bob Steele were the Juniors, Bernie McMahon, Jack Newell, and Jim Rafferty. Dick Maloney, who is only a Sophomore, saw quite a little action and will help the team considerably for the next two years. John Kenyon and Bill Ryan also turned in some fine tennis at different times during the season. John Brennan was unable to play this season because of illness, but he devoted much of his time to the team and deserves a great deal of credit for his willingness to help. The season. not yet completed, is turning out to be a successful one. The prospects for next year are very bright. and the city championship will be our aim.

With five records already broken thus far this year and four meets remaining, the team has not had an equal. The co-captains, '5Oatie O,Donnell and Ken Ogren, have led their team on to four victories against one defeat. In the first meet of the year at East Hartford our squad came from behind to take the last three events to clinch the meet, 55 to 4-9. Then came their one defeat at the hands of a powerful New Britain team, which is rated as the top team in the state, by the score of 60 to 44. Since we have no home field, all the meets must be held on the opponents' grounds, so the squad travelled to Middletown where Johnny Bradley, who had never run the half mile before, broke 173 Xl 5 C51 ii ' I w as .X Q I XR X I F L .
