We, the class of 1952, dedicate this first copy of Maple Leaves to a man who has been both a friend and an adviser to us. Although but newly come to Bulkeley, he has already won our respect and admiration. Because of his friendliness and sincerity, Bulkeley rapidly became his” school, and its students his friends. We regret that he has been our leader only during this, our last year, but we know that our Alma Mater will rank high among the schools of New England under his wise and considerate guidance. Happy is the man that fmdeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.” PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE Graduation speakers and school officials have pointed out from time immemorial that high school graduation marks the completion of one phase of a student’s life and the commencement of another. It represents the ending of either his preparatory or formal education and his entry into the new oppor¬ tunities and experiences of the adult world. Since I am sure that all of you recognize the importance of these two aspects of your graduation, I need not dwell on them. I should like, rather, to emphasize another thought in connection with the ending of your high school course, namely, the lasting influence of your school experience. While you are terminating your actual physical connection with the institution, you will con¬ tinue in one way or another to bear the stamp of Bulkeley High School — its teachers, its classrooms, its activities, and its traditions. All of you have prof¬ ited immeasurably from your high school years. You have gained, in varying degrees, an understanding of your cultural heritage; you have acquired some mar¬ ketable skills; you have learned to work with your fellow students and your teachers; you have been taught the importance of a sense of responsibility and have known the satisfactions of unselfish loyalty. All these experiences have become an integral part of you. As a result, your outlook on life will have a certain uniqueness because it has been your privilege to attend Bulkeley. Just as the school has left its mark on you, so, too, have you left your imprint on the, school. Your leadership and initiative have strengthened many areas of school life. Something of you will be left behind to become a permanent part ■ of Bulkeley. The Class of 1952, as my first senior class at Bulke¬ ley High School, will always have a special place in my affections. Your cooperation and fine school spirit have been instrumental in making this year an enjoy¬ able and worthwhile one for me. It has been a pleasure to work with those of you with whom I have had direct contacts. My only regret is that I have not been associated with you for a long enough period to en¬ able me to know personally every member of the class. I do want to thank you for the courtesy and consideration that you have extended to me and to express my appreciation of your friendliness and help¬ fulness. In saying farewell, I should like to stress the con¬ tinuing interest of the faculty in each of you. We shall follow your careers, taking pride in your suc¬ cesses and sympathizing with you in your failures. As you become alumni, always bear in mind tjiat Bulkeley is still your school and that it stands ready to serve you in any way that it can. I wish you God¬ speed, confident that you will bring credit to your parents, your teachers, and to Bulkeley High School. FREDERICK T. BASHOUR, M. A. Vice-Principal Percy E. Fellows Alfred M.

When we say ' Maple Leaves,” let us think of a single tree, caressed by warm breezes — this tree that is our school — and when its branches move, let them be our faculty, adjusting themselves continually to new faces and new personalities; and when a breeze whisks the Maple’s leaves away, let them be its students, each carried by life toward his own fate. Thus a single tree becomes the source of life for thousands of people, and a mold for what they are to become. As we look back over the past four years, we might say we shall miss our homework, but let us be more honest and say. we shall not. And yet it will not be easy to forget Bulkeley. There have been work and study, it’s true, but they have been a privilege not bestowed upon all the people of this world. We have learned independence, companionship, and friendliness. Of course, there have been those frivolous times when some ingenious scholar would send around the room a care¬ fully written note reading, “Sneeze at eleven o’clock.” To frustrate our teachers was one of our freshman delights, but this faded away as we became upper class- men -—■ at least with most of us. You see, we students at Bulkeley liked our teachers, and through ail the worry, fuss, and bother, we think they rather liked us, too. Naturally, there were times when we just couldn’t make it to school in the morning, but they understood that we just happened” to be ill only till 8:30 a.m. If perchance we had neglected our homework, we gladly kept the faculty company for an hour or so after school. Our teachers are nice ones. Every year they meet hundreds of new students, and every year each student becomes of personal concern to them. We understand their posi¬ tion now — their tireless work in teaching the same material year after year. We know that they are in reality the roots of our tree, for without them new foliage would never appear. We hope we have gained but a fraction of their knowledge. MAPLE LEAVES This, the first issue of Maple Leaves,” owes much to many people: to Mr. Mackimmie, our new Principal, for his friendliness and ever-present patience; to Miss Potter, for her merry smile and always encouraging words when we felt de¬ pressed; to Mr. McElney and his cooperative Business Board; to Miss Safford, who in her sweet, bustling way constantly kept after her Senior Art Class to accomplish some miracle of art for this book; to Mr. Bashour and his Photography Club for their continued assistance; to Miss Markman and Mrs. Atlin for their invaluable help at all times; and to all the office staff, whom we have come to know and ap¬ preciate. But let us not forget our own classmates who have created this book: Joan Granata, the Art Editor, and her young Rembrandts Tommy DeLisa, “Doc” Bazzano, Jean Mantello, Jo Macher, James Lovett, and Dorothy Tirrell; and our efficient typing staff headed by little but mighty Tsampica Anastasakis, with her model workers Irene Lisella, Nancy Monsam, Lorraine Krause, Helen Ostapkevich, and How about those grinds! TYPING STAFF Head Typist: Tsampica Anastasakis Irene Lisella Lorraine Krause Helen Ostapkevich Nancy Monsam Lynne Hill Lynne Hill; and Jack Berman and Michael Brescia for their accurate, interesting sports write-ups; and any other person or group who has had any connection with this, our major production. Now the leaves are fluttering away, north-east-west, each one towards his own future, an uncertain one in uncertain times. But they are staunch with deter¬ mination and green with vigor. Never will they forget their source — the tree that is Bulkeley.

Hurry and vote!! During September and October, corridor bulletin boards were cov¬ ered with colorful campaign posters; voting machines were set up in the lobby, and political speeches were given in an assembly. What was all this about? The Hartford Junior City Council elections, of course. The J.C.C. is a council of fifteen members, five from each of the three Hartford high schools. A clerk and an executive secretary are appointed by the Council. Each council member is on at least one of the five Council committees; the City Beautiful, Driver Education, Metropolitan Youth Conference, Career Day, and Charter Amendment Committees. Most of the work is done in these small groups. The object of the Junior City Council is to provide a means of government for Hartford’s youth and to train today’s youth for his duties as tomorrow’s citizen. Representatives: Robert Crowley, Cataldo Pugarelli, Dolores Sca¬ vetta, Dorothy Simms, Frederick Wade, Katharine Taylor, Executive Secretary. HONOR SOCIETY Members of this organization are elected twice yearly. The choice is based upon citizenship, scholarship, leadership, and character. Each spring the society sponsors a square dance called the Maytime Hop.” It is both an honor and a privi¬ lege to belong to the Bulkeley Chapter of the National Honor Society.

GIRLS’ LEAGUE Seated: Patricia Pinchera, Edith Sullivan, Marion Clark. Standing: Miss Quin- terro, Carol Crowley, Miss Wheeler, Mary Eller, Miss Beroth, The Girls’ League is the largest and one of the oldest girls’ clubs in the school. Its purpose is to promote a friendly relationship among all the girls here at Bulkeley. Every girl has a chance to become a member, for membership is open to all. Each session room has a representative, who aids the officers in carrying out the functions of the League. This year the Girls’ League opened its 1951 season by sponsoring the school’s annual Sports Dance in con¬ junction with the Boys’ Club. The program also consisted of a cake sale, a box lunch supper, a fashion show, a mother and daughter tea, and a food sale. The officers worked very hard to make this year the big success that it was.

BOYS’ CLUB The purpose of the Boys’ Club is to promote friendship among the masculine Bulkeleyites. Three meet¬ ings are held each year. At each meeting there is a speaker who gives a talk on topics of interest to teen- gers. Although lacking the feminine pulchritude that makes a club espe¬ cially interesting, the Boys’ Club prospered, and each meeting was entertaining to all. President: William Taylor Vice-President: Fred Wade Secretary: Robert Alexander Treasurer: Don Rini Fifth Member: Frank Mirabello Faculty Adviser: Mr. Fellows 82 GIRLS’ BIOLOGY CLUB The study of Biology teaches not only the structure and proper care of plants and animals, but also develops a love of nature. The students have this year worked on projects which were entered in the National Science Fair. Microscopic work also made up a large part of their meetings held in school. The Club has taken many interesting trips, which consisted of a tour through the Hartford Hospital, a hike to Cedar Hill, trips to the Bronx Zoo, the Planetarium, and the Museum of Natural History in Springfield.

THE AGORA The Agora is intended for girls who are interested in debating. Each member participates in one debate upon a subject chosen by the two teams. One debate with the Legislative Club is held in an assembly for the entire student body. The year’s program is end¬ ed with a picnic at which new officers are elected.

During the foot¬ ball and basketball seasons the Band members ,dressed in their colorful uniforms, attend most of the games. Rallies are attended by the Band in order to arouse school spirit by contributing to the general clamor. Towards spring, the Band looks forward to its annual concert, as well as appearances at nearby schools. President — Robert Tanguay Vice-President — Francis Shea Faculty Adviser — Mr. Westcott Upon entering Bulkeley each student has the opportunity of signing up for the choirs.

President: Sheila O’Hagan Vice-President: Dolores Pelletier Secretary-Treasurer: Marie Burke Faculty Adviser: Mr. Dooey 90 SENIOR LITERARY CLUB The Club opened its year with a “get-acquainted” tea. Soon after this, it went into full swing. A tour of the Hartford Courant building left the members wide- eyed and impressed. A film on India was one of the next treats for the Club. Then slides on ancient Roman cities brought a touch of the past to the Club members. In the spring, the Club joined with several other clubs in giving a tea at which Miss Potter gave an amus¬ ing and enlightening talk on cur¬ rent literature.

Another meeting, en¬ titled Winners in Popularity,” was also held in the library, at which Miss Horne spoke about the most popular books of today. An interesting project under¬ taken by the club was called “The Junior Literary Club Suggests Christmas Giving and Receiv¬ ing.” For this project the mem¬ bers made posters and wrote ma¬ terial on books that boys and girls would like to receive. The Club also has combined with other clubs to hear a discussion of India by Mr. and Mrs. Coburn, and to hear Miss Flannagan speak on Rome.

The members tried their hand at re¬ porting by writing accounts of trips taken to such interesting places as the Avery Memorial and the Hartford School of Nursing. The Club also joined with other clubs in a meeting at which pic¬ tures of India were shown by Mr. and Mrs. Harold Coburn. The Club enjoyed seeing pictures of ancient and modern Rome at another joint meeting. The Club entertained the members of the English Depart¬ ment at a Christmas tea, at which several members read aloud the original stories they had written. President: Marion Kohler Vice-President: Carol Stenberg Secretary: Dianne Driggers Treasurer: Marianne Petrus Faculty Adviser: Miss Hofman CHEMISTRY CLUB This year the club has made trips to the Aetna Life Insurance Company and the Metropolitan Water Plant.

This year the club went on an afternoon trip to Mount Holyoke College. The head of the Latin Department of the college lec¬ tured to the members, who later visited the art museum. The ma¬ jor activity planned for this year is a Roman banquet with roast pig and other Roman foods. Each member dresses as a famous char¬ acter in Greek or Roman history. The Club meets on the first and third Fridays of the month. As a special attraction this year, the club played hostess to five other Bulkeley clubs. Miss Anita Flan- nigan, who spoke on her summer in Rome, was the speaker of the evening. President: Marilyn Fish Vice-President: Carol Johnston Secretary: Joan Partyka Treasurer: Beverly Sorensen Fifth Member: Michael Doerrer Faculty Adviser: Miss Plumb RADIO CLUB The purpose of the program of the Radio Club is to benefit all the members, regardless of what varied phases of radio they may be interested in. Thus there is generally a beginner’s group, a code group, and an advanced group. One may start with no knowledge whatever of radio, and through classes in theory and building become quite pro¬ ficient, if one has the ambition and the interest.

This year’s project was fishing rods. Kits were procured, and then all that was needed was skill, time, and patience which members of the club certainly showed they had. Their project was so unusual that they plan to send an article about it to a magazine so that others planning a similar project may benefit by their ' experience. Fishing rods are something that will last for sometime; the proj¬ ect choice was certainly a wise one.

The busi¬ ness branch is composed of the people who canvass session rooms for football, basketball, and base¬ ball pictures. The technical branch has twenty-five members. A different committee meets each afternoon to develop film or print pictures. Some of our services to the school are pictures of athletic teams, shots ' of the games, pic¬ tures of outstanding events about school, individual or group pic¬ tures at dances, and personality” pictures. President: Donald Ahlberg Vice-President: Marilyn Fish Recording Secretary: Katherine Taylor Secretary of Activities: Kathryn Crehan Treasurer: Robert Oliver Fifth Member: Irving Waters Faculty Advisers: Mr. Bashour Miss Woodis ART CLUB This group has proven itself to be one of the busiest in the school. This year the Club mem¬ bers tried their skill in figure work, ceramics, caricatures, fash¬ ion designing, and sketching. Many of their drawings were en¬ tered in the Scholastic Art Con¬ test. Much of the success of this Club is due to the cooperation, friendship, and teamwork be¬ tween the students and their Ad¬ viser.

Each year during May the new recruits are trained for a week by the veteran cheerleaders. The series of tryouts and elimination then begin. At the end of June the remaining girls compose the regular cheerleaders and substitutes. It is not until September and the final tryouts that the regular squad is actually chosen. The girls are marked on a passible five point basis: appearance, jump, snap, scholastic marks, and general representation. Almost every morning at 7:30 finds them practising in the gym, improving, changing, and working on their cheers. They must keep the morale of the team and student body up, even when losing. At the end of the year the girls choose their captain. This year the squad was proud to have Ann DiTunno as Captain, and Myrna Goldsmith as Co-captain. THE MAJORETTES Mrs. Widerkrantz, Nance Broderick, Carolyn Radican, Joan Bader, Margaret Schoenberger, Janet Miller, Gayle Grant, Bernice Roy, Carol Machol, Cynthia Palen, Diana Hendley, Betty Rategan. THE TWIRLERS The 1951-1952 twirling season got off to a very snappy start under the guidance of Major Harvey. The squad practiced faithfully every Monday night, and many mornings found them working, hard long before the start of the school session. This year the twirlers, under the leadership of Captain Margaret Schoenberger, became an outstanding group of which the school could be proud. The girls are chosen by the officers of the squad and must pass a thorough inspection. The procedure of electing girls each year is different, but there are a few basic elements each girl must have, such as good posture and an attractive appearance. Attending most of the football games, this group played a big part in encouraging the team and urging them on to victory.

FOOTBALL With the coming of the football season, the big question on the tongues of all Bulk- eleyites was, Can the Bulldogs match their glorious 1950 season in which they went unde¬ feated and untied? Graduation claimed almost the entire 1950 first team. However, Babe” Allen, with his returning lettermen, molded together a fine gridiron squad that closed the season with a 5-3 record. Although the Allenmen dropped three contests, each loss was by one touchdown or less, and one break” could have turned the tide in favor of B.H.S. There were two outstanding features of the ’51 season. In the finale with arch rival New Britain, the Bulldogs smothered their Hardware City rivals 44-6, the first time B.H.S. had whipped New Britain twice in a row. In addition, Frankie Mirabello, one of the greatest athletes ever to wear the Maroon colors on the gridiron, broke his own district scoring record by tallying 110 points in his senior year. Frankie saved his best effort for his final high school contest. Against New Britain he scored 31 points, and at the end of the game he was carried off the field by his joyous teammates. Bulkeley opened its season by smearing Windham 34-6. Mirabello scored four times, while Lovett accounted for one touchdown. The following week they made it two in a row as the Allenmen trounced West Haven 37-6. Mirabello spearheaded the attack with three tallies. Don Rini, a fleetfooted halfback who was to give Bulkeley opponents plenty of headaches, scored twice, while Alexander scored once on a quarterback sneak. Bulkeley’s victory train came to an abrupt end the following week as Hartford High, destined to be State Champs, tripped the Bulldogs 14-12. A penalty in the final minutes of play erased a Bulkeley score and thus enabled the Owls to snap Bulkeley’s winning streak at ten over a two-season period. The Bulldogs quickly recovered, and in their next encounter edged New London 14-6, with Mirabello scoring on a 50 yard jaunt and Ted Orzech tallying once on an Alexander pass. However, although he didn’t score, Rini was the Bulldogs’ outstanding ground gainer and was superb on defense. The Bulldogs bowed again as Norwich spanked them 7-0 at Munie Stadium. Nu¬ merous penalties hampered the Maroons, and in general it was not their day. Weaver High handed the Allenmen their second straight setback by virtue of a 13-7 win. Rini’s T.D. gave Bulkeley a 7-0 halftime lead, but in the second half, Weaver’s aerial attack paved the way for their two sc ores. Bulkeley was its own worst enemy as in the fourth quarter a Maroon fumble on the Beaver’s two yard stripe stopped the potential winning touchdown drive. 102 I?;! ' ; 1 ' Against Hall the Allenmen put on their best scoring performance as they downed their over-west rivals 45-14. Rini, Mirabello, Joe Gilberto, and Kevin Scanlon each had a share introducing the Hallites. In their final outing, the Bulldogs walloped New Britain 44-6 with Mirabello scoring 31 points. It was a great team victory. Bob Alexander passed for two TD ’s and played spectacular defensive ball. Doc” Bazzano, Bob McNulty, Bill Tavlor Boot” Hill, Dick Gillette, Prince” Casale, and Debby” DiPietro turned in fine performances in the Bulkeley forward wall. With the naming of Frank Mirabello to first string berths on the All-District and All-State squads, the curtain was brought down on the 1952 gridiron season.

This year’s team was built around the sole returning letterman and team captain, Bob Alexander. Coach “Babe Allen had such material as Tommy DeLisa, Bob D’Ambrosio, Tommy Hurley, John DeBenedetto, Bob Marianella, Pete Cec- chini, Nick Vincent, and Joe Mozzicato to mold a starting team out of, with Alexander as the nucleus. At graduation Babe” will be saying good-by to DeLisa, Hurley, DeBenedetto, Marianella, and Alexander, whose educated one-hander and cool playing-skill made him the man most feared by the opposition. The Bulkeley Bulldogs opened their first game at home against Meriden. At the end of the fourth quarter the Silver City cagers found themselves on the sorry end of a 50-40 score. It was Captain Alexander who led the offensive drive with sixteen markers as the Maroons latched onto victory no. 1. The first points scored for Bulkeley in the game and in the season were dumped in by Pete Cecchini, who canned a one-handed set. The Maroon combine then traveled to West Hartford for their, second game. The hopeful victim was to be Hall High, but the Hallites had something to say about this and as a result the tables were turned. At the closing buzzer the score was 63-61, with B.H.S. down. The game was not without ex¬ citement, for the Maroons had overhauled the Westies in the last stanza, only to be sunk when a last minute hoop was caged by Hall’s center, Wes Eustis, a fellow who later in the season was to set a new district scoring record. The high scorer in the game for the Maroons was Alexander again with twenty points. The Bulkeleyites lost no time in getting back on the win¬ ning trail by drubbing the East Hartford Hornets, at East Hartford, by a 60-51 mark. Again it was Alexander who top¬ ped the scoring columns by caging a cool 21. Up and coming Bob D’Ambrosio soon started to show the fans some aggressive basketball as he distinguished himself as a fast man both on offense and defense. Little Johnny DeBenedetto also started showing some great floor play. Returning to their home court, the South-Enders turned back their traditional rival, the Maroon and Gold from New Britain, by a wide 57-42 margin. Bob D’Ambrosio walked away with top honors in both departments. He scorched the boards by caging twenty-one points and dis¬ played great aggressive floor play. Riding a two-game winning streak, the Bulkeleyites next met the Terrible Tigers from New London High, whose high scoring antics made them the team to beat. In the second period the Maroons had a 23-17 lead, but it wasn’t long before the boys from the Whaling City over¬ took the Bulldogs ' margin and went ahead to stay ahead until the final horn. The score when it was all over was 50-45, and the Tigers were licking their chops. Bob Marianella, Bob Alex¬ ander, and Tom DeLisa tied for Maroon scoring honors by garnering eleven points each. In their return contest with Meriden the South-enders encountered a little more difficulty than they had in their first meeting. The score was knotted up at 48 all with less than forty seconds to go, but Bob Alexander and Joe Mozzicato each broke loose for a hoop. It was a cor¬ ner push shot for the Maroon Captain and a layup for Mozzi¬ cato after he swiped the ball from the Meridenites that assured Bulkeley of its fourth win against two defeats. High scorer for the B.H.S. combine in this fray was Bob D’Ambrosio who poured in sixteen points. Back in Hartford again, the Bulldogs made their first ap¬ pearance of the season on the polished hardwoods of the Trinity Fieldhouse when they tangled with the Green from Weaver But that night the Maroons didn’t have it and so were handed a 52-44 setback. The next game again found them at the Field- house. This time their rivals were the cagers from Hartford High. The game started slowly but began to pick up during the first half until it was nip and tuck. At halftime the Owls were perched on the top of a 28-27 score. It was nip and tuck again during the third quarter until near the end the Maroons put on a scoring spurt that put them on top of the ladder at the three-quarter mark with a 39-35 count. In the fourth canto the Bulldogs rolled into high gear and began pouring in the points at a faster clip. Hartford just couldn’t keep up, and so after putting on a strong finish went down to a 57-48 defeat. In that game Bulkeley’s center,Nick Vincent, exhibited some sparkling rebound play. Returning to their home court at B.H.S. the Bulldogs repeated an earlier win over the West Hartford combine by topping them 53-50. It was in this game that Wes Eustis from Hall set the new district scoring record. The next game turned out to be the most startling contest of the Maroon’s entire season: their return match with the Beavers from Weaver. In the opening minutes the Bulldogs hit like greased lightning and had the Weaverites stunned and , baffled at every turn. The Bulldogs couldn’t miss, and at the first period close the score was 18-7, with Alexander the owner of all these eighteen points. But the Maroon Captain picked up personal fouls at too fast a clip, and was taken out early in the game to be brought in at an opportune time. As a re¬ sult he played very little. However, he still managed to be top man in the point-scoring department for the Maroons by can¬ ning fifteen points. In the second period the Bulldogs kept up their fast pace and at half-time they widened the gap to 29-13. In the third quarter the South-enders climbed higher to a 40- 25 score, but then the roof began to cave in. The Green Wave started to rally. Alexander and Hurley combined to add three points to counter a Weaver foul shot and spread the margin to 43-30. But the pressure became heavier, Alexander fouled out, the Maroons floundered, and the Beavers poled up on them. With 1:45 left the distance between the scores was shortened to five points. Two quick Weaver hoops shaved the lead to a mere point. DeBenedetto’s foul shot spread to to two points, but with twelve seconds to go a jump shot tied it up at 48 all and the game was pitched into overtime. In the overtime a Weaver hoop sent them ahead but Marianella’s set made it 50-50. The Green then came back with a three-point spurt. Marianella dumped in a foul shot to shave the lead to two points again, but another foul conversion for the North-enders put them ahead to stay, and at the final buzzer it was W.H.S. 54 — B.H.S. 51. It was a tough one to lose and the audience found it hard to believe that they had. Tom Hurley played an excellent game, as did Nick Vincent, who performed nicely under the boards. The next game was against the Hornets from across the river. The Maroons were in complete control of the contest as they handed the harassed Hornets their eleventh straight loss. Their biggest threat came in the third quarter when the East Hartfordites turned on a twelve point splurge to pull within five points of the leaders. But the Maroon quintet steadied themselves and went on to cop win number seven, 64-50. It was this victory that enabled them to qualify for the State Tournament. Alexander led the Maroons in point scoring by snapping the cords to the tune of twenty-five points. At New Britain, the South-end cagers repeated their earlier win over the ' Maroon and Gold when they rang up a 55-46 victory against the boys from the Hardware City. Alexander again hit the winner’s circle for the Bulldogs ' high scoring honors with twenty-one points. At the half the New Britainites were ahead, but the Maroons finally caught up and went in front till the closing buzzer. In their last appearance in the city the Bulkeley courtmen did battle with the Owls from H.P.H.S. for the second time. The Blue and White out-hustled the Maroon cagers and walked off the court at halftime with a 28-18 bulge. In the last half the Owls were in complete control and kept hitting with repeated accuracy. When the final second ticked off they found them¬ selves perched on the safe end of a 54-39 mark. For the last game of the season the Bulldogs traveled down to the stamping grounds of the New London Tigers and tried to pull a tiger¬ taming act, but it was to no avail as the sharp shooting Tigers clawed the Maroons, 75-48. And that’s how the Maroon and White from the South-end played their regular court season. At New Haven the Bulldogs scrapped with the Greenwich hoopsters in their first round of the State Tournament, and were eliminated when Greenwich pulled a slight upset 48-32. That ended basketball in Bulkeley for the ’51-’52 season. The basketballs were put away and the uniforms were hung up. For the Senior players it was the last time they wo.uld be privileged to appear on the court in the Maroon and White colors. 107 Thar she blows! That’s our boy, Bobby Alexander Pardon me, bub!

BASEBALL SCHEDULE School Hartford Public High School Weaver High School East Hartford High School Hartford Public High School New Britain High School Weaver High School East Hartford High School New Britain High School This season, Flash” Atlin’s cross-country team enjoyed a fine season. The Hill and Dalers won three out of their four dual meets, and were second, one point behind Hartford High, in the Greater Hartford Meet. The boys who play in the minor sports are the unsung athletic heroes. Try running a mile or two every day just for practice, and see how you like it. This is an every day routine for the boys of the cross-country team. No rallies for these fellows before their meets. Neverthe¬ less, they are always out on the cinder path giving their best. This year’s team was led by Captain Bill Knorr. In their first meet, with Knorr leading the pack, the Atlinmen whipped Windham, 16-29- Next was B.H.S. 25, East Hartford 32, with Spatt, Knorr, and Giangrave finishing 1, 2, and 3. In the city meet, with Spatt pacing the Atlinmen, we were edged out by the Owls from H.P.H.S., 43-44. Against Manchester, the Maroons were completely out¬ classed, 15-40. Giangrave and Spatt placed seventh and ninth to lead the Atlinmen. In their final meet, with Spatt, Giangrave, and Peterson placing, the cindermen topped the Green from Weaver, 24-31, and thus ended their season on a happy note. For unheralded heroes, the Atlinmen did a fine job of winning fame. CROSS-COUNTRY m SWIMMING Had lady luck chosen to smile on Flash” Atlin’s mermen, they might have enjoyed the greatest season a Bulkeley tank team has ever had. The Atlinmen lost more than one race by inches only, and several disqualifications cost the chlorine jumpers vital points. This year’s record showed only 3 wins in 9 meets, but nevertheless the boys never stopped trying. The fly in the ointment for this year’s team was lack of depth. The team was com¬ posed of only ten men. Co-Captains Ed Campbell and Bill Taylor, Ron Berube, Frank Curtin, Bill Knorr, Bob Martone, Dermie Rea, Joe Spatt, Lee Kennedy, and Ron Misca- vich made up the tiny squad. Ed Campbell was the big point getter as he scored 74 points this season. Ed also placed third in the State Meet for the 50 yd. freestyle. He recorded the best time of the evening when he qualified. The team gave the school a new medley record. Dermie Rea produced the biggest guts” exhibition of the year. Against Crosby, Flash” Atlin’s squad needed a second in the 100 yd. backstroke to win, because they figured on winning the free style relay. Rea’s opponents were expected to better him. However, Dermie gave it the old college try,” and came through with a second place to ensure a B.H.S. win as they handily won the free style relay. Perhaps next year the B.H.S. mermen will reach the heights that can be reached so easily with a few breaks.” SUMMARY B.H.S. 31 Middletown 36 B.H.S. 48 Bristol 18 B.H.S. 32 Manchester 35 B.H.S. 27 Windham 40 B.H.S. 25 Sacred Heart 32 B.H.S. 26 Hartford 41 B.H.S. 44 Meriden 23 B.H.S. 35 Crosby 32 B.H.S. 32 Springfield Tech 15 300 292 ■ Ctf, TRACK TEAM This year Flash’’ Atlin looked to his track team with much antici¬ pation. To begin with, he had two lightning-like runners in Don Rini and Jim Lovett, who did the 100 yd. and 220 yd. runs. Joe Spatt, Bill Knorr, Don Cables, Joe Moran, Camarca, and Johnson were a group of speedsters that gathered in many B.H.S. points. Santo Giangrave, Dune Poison, Jim Sansibrino, and Joe Spatt performed in the gruelling mile. In the strong men stints, Doc” Bazzano tossed the shot put, flipped the disc, and hurled the javelin. Aiding him were Art Salvatori and Frank Curtin. In the other events, Rini was the broad jumper, while Johnson doubled in the high jump and pole vault.. This season the cindermen opened their season with a practice meet against Weaver and were upset 341 2-29V2- However, they were disqualified in the final meet, and this was the difference. In a triangular meet, the Atlinmen were second behind all — powerful H.P.H.S. However, despite two practice setbacks, the trackmen seemed to be «2!
