The entire concept and foundation of Americanism is being challenged, and American youth is called upon to defend it-not only with his life, but with the very fiber of' his soul. lt has taken the sweat and blood, the tears and suffering, and agonizing death of untold generations extending over thousands of years to bring to the surface the concepts of right and justice, of liberty and equality which constitute the very fabric of democracy and civilization. Our forefathers who suffered at Valley Forge, they who gave up their lives at Gettysburg, and those who, in more recent years, crossed the ocean to face death on the already bloody battlefields of Europe, were all motivated by one ideal- to preserve the sanctity of human freedom and individual liberty. This cannot be accomplished unless it is established as a universal principle that, whereas the majority possesses power, the minority is entitled to certain inalienable rightsg and that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We Americans have been nourished on these ideals. 'They are the very fiber of our life, and now we see them threatened both from without and from within. We are witnessing the sad spectacle of a people whipped into a series of frenzies-fear, hatred, and the lust of conquest-all under the illusion that they are the select of the earth. There seems to be no way of stopping them by appeal to reason, in spite of the fact that they find themselves isolated in a world of fear and hate. It is like a person who seeks to establish a home in a fine neighborhood and does it at the expense of his neighbors to such an extent that he wakes up to find his home situated in a wilderness. We shall not allow our spiritual mansions, nor our cities and homesteads, to be destroyed in that attempt. Like true and noble Americans, strengthened by our traditions, we will strive forever to preserve our ideals, and retreat from them never. GUSTAVE A. FEINGOLD 9 CLASS BOOK EDITORIAL BOARD George H.

We wish on this occasion publicly to thank you, our parents, our teachers, and our friends, for the patience you have shown during the past four years, and for the help and guidance you have rendered us, without which our school life would have been far more difficult. On this joyful occasion several of our classmates, chosen for their vocal, instrumental, or oratorieal ability, will entertain you. Again may I, speaking in behalf of my fellow classmates, bid you a sincere and hearty welcome. IOHN THOMAS RYAN 133 rfb B 4- -9- CAUTION FOR SAFETY 'T312aq'r,.S UR first thought at the mention of the word Safety is, Are we physically safe? Why not? It is only natural that we consider our ln health before all else. If this be the case, how can we assure ourselves that we are in perfect health? No one knows better than our own doctor how to keep us physically fit. Perhaps at this time someone will make the statement, Yearly examinations are perfectly all right to suggest, but suppose one can't afford to visit his doctor as often as he should?', The answer to this is the Health Clinics. These clinics have been established for those people who are financially unable to afford a regular family physician. Perhaps we are a victim of tuberculosis and are completely unaware of the fact. Medical science has made such wonderful progress in the past fifty years that there isn't a known disease which cannot be cured if taken care of in time. Thus it is for this one purpose that tuberculin tests are being administered to high school students today. Perhaps now you may see clearer how to live better and to live longer. While we speak of keeping ourselves physically safe, many people are being killed and injured through no fault of their own by careless or drunken drivers. We read in the papers of the number of people killed in the European War in one day and we gasp with horror. Yet, just as many people are being killed and seriously injured every day right here in America because some irresponsible drivers think they can sneak through a red light or because they drive while under the influence of liquor. The lives of thousands of people are in the hands of the driver, and unless he is fully capable of operating a vehicle, he should not be allowed to drive. On the other hand, many accidents have frequently been the fault of the pedestrian. A pedestrian has many rules which he must follow if he expects to live a long and happy lifef, My purpose in stressing these few points has been to impress on your minds, especially you who are to be our future drivers, that caution must be observed at all times no matter where you are or what you are doing. I have mentioned caution in respect to health and accident. Now let me point out a few illustrations in regard to us as a people. We are part of a great nation, 134 lu' 413' n, BJL8- - TX 1941 and if we have any love in our hearts for this country of ours, we are going to do everything in our power to make it the perfect example of a democratic nation. People today are altogether too willing to sit back and let someone else worry about affairs. Keeping our country out of war should be just as much a problem of every American as it is of our President. America is a democracy. That means government of the people, by the people, and for the people. The citizens should be made to realize that this is their land and that, if they wish it to remain a peaceful nation, they must be the ones to keep it that way. The majority of people who argue today as to whether we should give all out aid to Britainv hfaven't the faintest idea why they are arguing for or against the policy. Some might say, England tried to keep us under her rule when we wanted independence, so we should not help herf' ls that a very strong argument at a crisis such as this? Certainly not. Our people should take a real interest in all the nation's affairs and should be able to debate points pro or con sensibly. This dreaded event is not something which is going to pass over in a week or two. It is a crisis, a time when we must be alert and logical in our thinking. We don't want to see another world war in which thousands of American soldiers will be killed. The only way to avoid this is through you, the people. Do your part by keeping up with everyday problems and by acting sensibly and logically, and we will keep America truly democratic. FREDERICK W. WRIGHT 135 i- W: i mw ff' 3' Y' 1: I all ft' tg .BM CLASS ESSAY H A N D S f Q .5 OUBTLESS each one of us has, at one time or another, noticed hands, Q either for their striking beauty or for their extraordinary ugliness. 1,545 We may observe them almost anywhere, over the dinner or bridge bg N table, on the street car or bus, while shopping, while visiting, while kg , , -,et, , at work, or at play. There are the poised, well-groomed hands of a lady, the laborers rough, grimy, uncared-for hands, which never seem to get quite clean despite scrubbing, there are the grasping, gimmee hands of a youngster, which snatch all with never a 'gpleasew or 'cthank young the business executive's hands, pushing buttons, scribbling notes, gesturing emphatically, pounding furniture to put across ideas, the nun's cool, calm, peaceful hands, almost a prayer in themselves, the surgeon's hands, quick, steady, sure, never making that fatal mistake. Who can resist a baby's chubby, helpless hands reaching out for some elusive object, or grandmais dear, plump hands, well-worn with caring for us and with making multitudes of gingerbread men and doughnuts? What hands more gentle and loving than Mother's? My mother's hands are cool and fair, They can do anything. Delicate mercies hide them there Like flowers in the springf, Granted we have noticed hands occasionally, have we really thought about them? To many of us, perhaps, they are a portion of the human frame immediately below the wrists, each consisting of a palm, four fingers, one thumb, and five fingernails, useful things, but not exceptionally important. The dictionary defines 'ahandf' thus: 'fthe divided and terminal extremity of the human arm, connected with the wristf' To be sure, the learned students of physiology could give us an even better definition, more technical, more complex, and equally meaningless, but would they actually help us to realize and appreciate how important our hands are to us? If by some unfortunate accident, one or both of our hands were cut off, we should soon be sensible of our deficiency. It is not necessary, however, to remove a hand to understand its value. We have Ollly to recall some occasions when the hand or even a finger has been injured. How helpless we were, trying to manage things with only one hand. And yet, how quickly we forget, once the injury is healedl Today, when hands are so terribly important, it seems unbelievable that so many of us never give them a thought. Just think of the tremendous numbers of people who are gaining a living by typewriting all day and of other huge numbers of skilled 136 1 ft' g as . If BJLS, i . gt I mi workers operating delicate machines in factories, whose work depends on the speed, expertness, and accuracy of hands. There is hardly an occupation anywhere which does not require the use of hands. There are two groups of people who, I think, are more aware of the inestimable value of hands than any of the rest of us. They are the blind and the deaf mutes. New worlds have been opened up to these unfortunates, through their hands. The blind, with their supremely sensitive hands, may enjoy reading by the Braille system, just as you and I read with our eyes. Books and magazines are being produced in Braille form more and more extensively so that these sightless people may not miss one of lifeis greatest pleasures. The deaf mutes, by the language of the hands, are also enabled to live more normal lives. They can readily understand how important hands are when the smallest gesture is so significant. In quite another field, hands play a most important role, that of capturing criminals. Since every human being is born with definite finger-tip patterns which can never be changed, and no two of which are exactly alike, a simple system of fingerprinting has been developed, a very effective and speedy method of apprehending law-breakers. Years ago, we used to happen upon, at circuses, country fairs, and bazaars, people, gypsies or otherwise, whose profession was telling fortunes by reading the palms. We paid little attention to their extravagant prophecies of great wealth, tall, dark, and handsome heroes, and unexpected voyages. But, today, palmistry, once practiced as a parlor pastime, is gaining importance. Interpretation of character by hand analysis is approaching recognition as a science. For instance, a person who holds his fingers close together, the tips turning slightly inward, palms held toward the body is almost always a secretive person, oftentimes inclined to be stingy, whereas the person with all-revealing, open palms is usually open-natured, friendly, and generous to an inadvisable degree. Considering the finger-tips, we find that the wide, flat, spatulate type frequently belongs to one whose talents require physical work. Square, blunt tips designate executive ability, while the oval-shaped, the most beautiful, are characteristic of creative people, actors, sculptors, painters, musicians, and writers. If the finger joints are clearly defined, we recognize an intelligent person, while a clearly defined thumb joint indicates independence. We might go on for hours, analyzing individual fingers, lines, and mounts, but our time is limited. We should remember, however, that our hands are always expressive. A lively person has lively hands, a dull person, clumsy hands, a frail, sick person, fragile, reaching hands. Consequently, since our hands are so important, so expressive of our character, and subject to inspection at all times, we should never be totally oblivious of them, but realize their priceless worth, and have greater regard for one of our most precious possessions.

BRONSON Ku' 19, .Ml CLASS HISTORY T ime-Thanksgiving Day, 1960. Characters-Barbara Links and Joseph Atdajian, two old graduates of Bulkeley High School. Scene-Living room. Barbara and Joseph are listening to the radio as the announcer describes a gallant Maroon squad fighting its annual football classic against the New Britain eleven. Barbara- The boys played well today even though they were more or less swamped under. You know, Joe, meeting like this every Thanksgiving makes our youth almost live again. Wouldn't it be great if more graduate couples did the same?l' fThe old man just stares and sucks in. on his pipe, whose smell is unbearable to some, but sweet to thoughtful Barbaraj Joseph- Why, I can remember as far back as when we were freshmen. Of course, you wouldn't because you came to Bulkeley in our second year. But do you know what strikes me as queer? Well, if you will keep it a secret-The George Blessis didn't make the honor roll, the first marking period of our freshman year. Now that was something, but by taking the Valedictorianship I think he made up for it. Dorothy Cummings took a close second. Among others whose names frequented the honor lists were Anita Castonguay, Robert Lonsdale, Margaret Meaney, Fred Wright, and Gladys Sobol. HAS for Bulkeley athletic teams .... , as far back as 1930, the Maroon ball-players and tracksters were very dangerous rivals for schools in the entire state-not to mention the great tennis and golf teams that set the pace. Although there were only a few in our freshman class who tried out for sports that year, Johnny Bradley in track, Bobby Allen in football, and Willie Turner in basketball made good. For the girls, the Girls' Leaders Corps and the Gfirls' League had much in store for our green freshman girls. Then there was the Agora, the Girls' Biology Club, and the ,Iunior Dramatic Club, all of which opened their arms in a friendly way to our freshman girls. Did you know that love has no limits? What do I mean? Why just that 'there was just as much romance, or call it what you will, in and out of Bulkeley, in our freshman year as there was in our senior year. Yes sir, many's the time I saw Pat McCarthy and Fred Wright look admiringly at one another and wondered why .... now I know. And who was this hysterious M. N. in Bobbyls life, yes, I mean Bob Allen. This was the year when Harry Sandberg stepped out of line, and stepped out with Betty Due. Then there was Alex Pinkes, and his Ida Miller. I bet he hasn't forgotten her. We found out in our senior year just why Marion Darby 140 lu, i 7 Q Q BJLS- 1941+ shuddered at football and basketball games. Yes, there were affairs in our freshman year, but they certainly were mixed up. The Junior Proms and Senior Receptions looked mighty distant thenf, Barbara- I guess they were .... but now theyire just a thing of the past. Come to think of it, welve been meeting here in Hartford, on Thanksgiving, for the past .... ohl I don't know how many years. Then came my debut at Bulkeley. How can I ever forget that hectic first day? Now let me see .... yes it was on a Wednesday when I first entered those gracious portals, only to be forced back by a perpetual mob, which I later learned to be the boys and girls who were just trying to find out their session room numbers the hard way. I straightened out my dress, held up my head, and walked in again. I finally got through and was terribly surprised to find the three hundreds on the third floor. But to get away from our troubles and hearty laughter, let us try to talk about something more serious and importantf' Joseph- Well, Bob Lonsdale, Margaret Meaney, Fred Wright, George Blessis, Thomas Ritchie, and Dorothy Cummings were still making the honor roll. And if you ask me, those kids got just what they deserved. Others might have done the same, if they had studied. Now I realize that it wasn't the teachers but it was I who was out of step. But .... those days are gone forever. Barbara- Remember all the lady-killers that blossomed forth in our sophomore year? Why, there were Dick Stoddard, Ronnie Jacobsen, Bob Kask, Jim Campbell, and Fred Wright. Although most of them have settled down now, a few are still loosef' Joseph- Yes, those were the days, when boys meant everything to their girls and girls meant everything to their mothers. The Junior Dramatic Club, the Verse Speaking Choir, and the Boys, Biology Club chose many of us when we were sophomores. Sports took others of our class, and we contributed a great deal to the teams' success. ,Iohn Condron, now there was a ball-player. That year nothing could hold him, a true and loyal Bulkeley student. But fate played him a dirty trick, and after that, because of a leg ailment, he was allowed to play only one gameg but that game was enough proof for anyone to call him a superb football playerf, Barbara- I can remember the fun we had when the Girls, League held a kindergarten festival. Rattles, dolls, and rompers were seen as we toddled about the gym. Elaine Vander Linden had charge of the entertainment. Then along came the Dialjs merry musical. The film, Rose of the Rancho, was presented and dancing followed. There were also a few specialty acts' during intermission. Joseph- Oh, and we mustngt forget the most important event of the year, Barbara, our Junior Prom. Bill Carey was general chairman of the Prom committee and he deserves a lot of credit for his work. All the hard labor that everyone put into it was worth it because all of us juniors had a grand timef, Barbara-L'What came next on our school calendar, ,loe?,' 141 K .. ig., ,HB,u.S- , 1941 N, foseph- Oh, I remember. Parents' Night was held and was a great success as the best work of the students was exhibited throughout the school after the exhibitions in the gym and auditorium. To finish up the Social Season the Student Council gave a dance which was also a success. Barbara- Then came our Senior year. What a grand and glorious feeling it was to say we were seniors. To start the new season off the Girls' League held a novel circus party for all the new girls in Bulkeley. The party was planned by the officers of the club. Elections in Bulkeleyis many clubs then began. Among them the Student Council elected for their president, John Watts, vice-president, George Blessisg secretary, June Evansg treasurer, John Pierce. Joseph- And then came our first event of the year. The Girls, League and Boys' Club sponsored their annual dance with Margaret Meaney and Robert Allen acting as co-chairmen. Our class was just getting accustomed to the wonderful feeling of being seniors when everyone was disturbed by a terrifying monster. This invader was none other than the tractor and hoist used in the building of Bulkeley's new machine shop. Barbara- Among some of the other things that went on was the successful drive of the Student Activity plan, the Girls' League Hallowe'en Party, National Book Week, to which many of our thrifty classmates contributed, and the Dial's first appearance under the capable direction of Margaret Meaney and Eileen McGuire. Joseph- At the first meeting for 194-0-41 of the Boys? Club, Coach Allen, Coach Dan Jessee of Trinity College, and Dr. Feingold were speakers. Mr. Fellows then presented some movies of the Dartmouth, Princeton, and Yale teams. Refreshments were served and we all had a good time. Then came Torch Night which presented a gay college comedy. If I remember rightly, the characters in the show itself were Doris Bronson, Joe Fannelli, Jimmy Kinsella, Bernie McMahon, Billy Nelson, and John Shea. There were also many specialty numbers. Dancing was held after the show and everything was a big success. A large crowd of about 900 attended. Barbara-'Then the officers of the Honor Society were elected. George Blessis was made president, Fred Wright, vice-president, Anna Roberts, secretary, and Ernest Brodeur, treasurer. Then the annual Mother-Daughter Tea was given by the Girls' League and the Editorial and Business Boards of the Class Book were chosen. The last gala event of the semester-Dial Night-was given. It consisted of a floor show, dance, door prize, and refreshments. Jimmy Kinsella acted as Master of Ceremonies, while Sheldon Mann, general chairman, was assisted by Margaret Meaney, Eileen McGuire, and Margaret Vedder. Joseph-'6The Senior Dramatic Club presented What a Life, which was a lively comedy concerning the antics of the well-known Henry Aldrich. Elaine Vander Linden and Harry Sandberg had the leading roles, while the main members of the 142 1 a' ii, ,,-B.mc.S- , ' , A 1941 W, supporting cast included Fred Wright, Hurley Boazman, John Conrad, Nancy Martocci, and Bert lbelle. After this there was a semi-formal dance, wasn't there, Barbara? Barbara- Yes. The Girls' League opened the winter social season with a dance that was very successful. About 165 couples attended. Then Elaine Vander Linden was chosen to represent Bulkeley in the State D. A. R. contest, Arthur Keefe was promoted to managing editor of the Torch, Bernard McMahon acted with Paul Cibilisco as the Torch co-editor, and a gala dance was given by the Commercial Club. The winners in the American Legion Oratorical contest were none other than our two great orators Otis and Louis Levy. Otis won first place and Louis came in third. The annual Girls, Leaders Corps dance was held on George Washing1on's birthday and the gym was transformed into a gay, happy, and colorful night club. The committees were under the able direction of Lorain Yates, Marion Darby, Doris Bronson, Elaine Vander Linden, and Doris Stoddard. Joseph-'The Senior Dramatic Club then presented the thrilling melodrama, Pure as the Driven Snow, or A Working Cirfs Secret. High collars, checked suits, and narrow pants were the style in this thrilling spectacle. The leading parts were played by Agnes Turn, Bert lbelle, and Fred Wright. Local color and humor were offered by Melvin Smith, Margaret Vedder, Harry Sandberg, and Vivian Colden. Soon after, the Verse Speaking Choir gave a novel recital which everyone seemed to enjoy. Barbara- The Girls, League then held their annual gathering of fathers and daughters. Refreshments were served and entertainment was providedf' foseph-'4Do you remember when the Glee Clubs and Orchestra presented their modern operetta, Hollywood Extra? Everyone that came had a gay and musical evening and the operetta was a huge success. Barbara-uOur senior year was pretty near a close then, but of course, we can't forget the last school-wide dance which the Student Council gave. ,lack Watts was in charge and it was a pleasant evening for all who attended. Of course, that doesn't mean that our senior year was over because we still had our senior reception and other senior exercisesf, Joseph- You know what, Barbara?

In the initial en- counter, Babe Allen's charges succumbed to a potent West Haven outfit, 19-0, in what was a game of bad breaks. Had Dame Fortune smiled ever so slightly on our lads, the outcome would have been entirely different. On the heels of this upset, the Allenmen were tied by a supposedly weak Hartford High team, 7-7, bad breaks again being the deciding factor. Following this came the stalemate with New Haven Hillhouse, 0-0. The Maroon warriors completely outplayed their downstate rivals throughout, but lost the ball on the opponents, five- yard line in the only scoring threat of the game, when victory seemed to be staring them in the face. The ill-fated Bulkeley pigskinners dropped a heart-breaker to a great West Hartford combine, 7-6. After a long-sustained march, the Allenmen were deprived of the winning touchdown when the half-time gun sounded with the ball in Bulkeley's hands on the Hall three-yard line, first and goal to go. Another scoring attempt was thwarted in the final canter by a pass interception. The Maroons then traveled to the Whaling City to tackle New London Bulkeley. Striking with lightning force and rapidity, the Allenmen crushed their opponents under a tremendous barrage of touchdowns, 26-6. They had, at last, hit the winning trail which had eluded them so long. After a breath-taking opening period drive by Weaver, the Maroon juggernaut rolled over the huge Northenders to the tune of 22-13, thus ending Weaver's reign in the gridiron throne room. Manchester proved a more dogged opponent, but was finally stopped in a bruising battle, 6-0. The Maroon winning streak had now reached three straight triumphs, and the boys were primed for the titanic struggle coming up with the annual state championship Red and Cold New Britain High powerhouse. ln that memorable g'Turkey Day fiesta, the Maroon invaders, nearly swept off their feet by the onrush of the New Britain machine in the opening period, came roaring back and battled their way to the Sheaman,s nine-yard line. ln a desperate situation a pass play was called, and with a Maroon-clad player loose in the end zone, the ball was thrown to him, clutched for a brief second-and then dropped. This was the most tense moment of the whole football season, as Bulkeley had scored but once in all the previous engagements, and this writer still believes that if that ball had been caught, the Bulkeley warriors would have gone on to secure their most glorious victory in the past decade. The final score was 13-0. The team was sparked by All-State End Dick Kelly, a truly great athlete, and Captain Jack Watts, a really inspirational leader.

A heavy-hitting club at times, the Allenmen failed to unleash their full bombardment in the crucial battles, until the second Hartford High game which we won 9 to 8 in the eleventh inning on Ferrari's timely single. The run-making department was headed by Bob Kask, Bill Connelly, and 'GBabe Capobianco, while sophomore Smith, and Ramsey were defensive stalwarts. Babe', Capobianco was the first-string man behind the mask, while lanky Willie Turner did reserve duty. The keystone combination found Al Giansanti and Jack Ramsey at second and short, respectively, while the rest of the infield was filled out by Smith at the initial sack and Connelly at the hot corner. The outfield found Bob Kask roaming in left, Paul Conforto in center, and Shark'7 Ferreri in right. The mound corps consisted mainly of Creek Pappa- george, Plasse, and Red Blesso.

Ay g it BJLS. slglil. - 1941 W, BASKETBALL The Maroon basketball squad added the second city title garnered by the Class of 1941 as it ended a highly successful court season with a final record of thirteen triumphs against only three setbacks. This smooth-working, fast-passing, accurate- shooting team ground out convincing verdicts in the first two encounters by trimming West Haven and New Britain, 38-27 and 38-22, respectively. The team was touted as one of the top-notch outfits of the state until it received a severe setback at the hands of a jinx New Haven Hillhouse aggregation, 30-23, in the third game of the season. The team regained its stride, however, and along with it, its lost prestige, as the boys rang up impressive victories over their next ten opponents, possibly hitting their peak against East Hartford and New Britain. They started the ball rolling by whipping West Haven for the second time, 42-35. Then came a real test in the big Green five from Weaver, but the Allenmen proved superior to the tune of 27-23. In these next two battles the Maroons swished the cords for an even 50 points a game while limiting the opposition, East Hartford and New Britain, to a meager 23 and 36. Following this came the rout of a weak Meriden squad, 42-24. On the heels of this triumph was the thrilling comeback against an up-and-coming Hartford High quintet, 34-31. West Hartford and Meriden were the next victims of the devastating Maroon onslaught, being subdued by 44-36 and 47-33 counts. With State tournament time rapidly approaching, the Allenmen were considered to be ranked among the four top teams in the state, and victories over Weaver and East Hartford by 39-20 and 39-18 scores boosted their stock tremendously. Then came the jinx team-Hillhouse. The Maroons, after being on the long end of the score in their last ten engagements, had their hopes rudely shattered by the aggressive downstate array, 35-32, for their second defeat of the campaign. But the Bulkeley tornado returned to smite Hartford High into the dust by an overwhelming 45-25 count. With a record of thirteen triumphs and two setbacks, the Maroons entered the State tournament at New Haven with the rank of sixth. As a playdown opponent, the Allenmen drew a supposedly weak but really powerful Waterbury Wilby team. After making a valiant attempt to overhaul a commanding Wilby advantage of seven points with but sixty seconds of play remaining, the Maroons were dropped from further competition by a 36-35 score, thus preserving their tradition of never having won a tournament game. Throughout the season the Allenmen dropped 583 points through the mesh to their opponents' 415, thereby compiling an average of 38.8 points per game to the 159 THE TRACK TEAM 0,5 r- Bax-S0 ' 0pp0sition,s 27.6 tallies. The final standing, including the post-season contest, resulted in a record of thirteen victories against three defeats. To bring in a few facts about the team itself, we must remember the six regular performers-Dick Kelly, Paul Klapprodt, Willie Turner, Bob Kask, Scottie Hynd, and Dick Porteus, along with the able reserves, 6'Chick,' Sposito and Bob Allen. Flashy Kelly led the district in the individual scoring race, while cool-headed Paul Klapprodt wound up in fourth position. Towering Willie Turner contributed heavily with his superb work under the hoop. Bob Kask, although coming into his own late in the campaign, was invaluable to the team in the final half of the schedule. Smooth Scottie Hynd and fighting Dick Porteus rounded out what we shall recall as the best basketball team ever to don the colorful Maroon and White of Bulkeley High. Again, hats off to a great team!

Possessing an abundance of first-place men, the Dalymen lacked depth, dropped mostly second and third places, therefore losing valuable points. Co-Captains ,lack Pierce and Jack Bradley turned in excellent performances throughout the season, always being good for necessary points. Pierce, who has lost only two or three races during his career, was the main gun in the dashes and 161 fn it .sa broad jump, while Bradley continued at his specialty, the gruelling mile. In the 44-0, long-striding Melvin Smith carried the Maroon colors admirably, while the half-mile was completely lacking in any top-notch performers. Fran Kelly, Williams, and Joe Adajian composed a trio of able high jumpers, while John Tomalonis soared to new heights, until he unfortunately sprained his ankle in the pole-vault. The weights found Fran Hennessey, Budge Danyliw, and Joe Fogarty in the discus, and Fran Kelly and Fogarty outstanding in the shot and javelin.

Q .g. TENNIS TEAM Hampered by injuries to key players throughout the campaign, the Maroon netmen turned in a creditable season,s work under the leadership of Captain Bernie McMahon. The Williamsmen, meeting one of the toughest schedules ever faced by a Bulkeley team, held their own during the season, dropping hard-fought decisions to Hartford and Weaver, the teams which tied for second in the State championships. McMahon and Jack Newell were consistent winners, while Jim Rafferty, Jim Campbell, Jack Ryan, and Spen Scott also contributed their share of points. McMahon led in points scored, with Newell and Rafferty close behind. With this year's entire team graduating, things look very black for next seasonls squad, but genial MPop,' Williams should manage to mold together a winning combination before the season is too old.
