FRANKLYN JOSEPH BERGEN, JR. Alpha Four Years at Taft Yale Four years ago Frank, who is better known to his friends as Tucky , entered Taftg since then he has become a prominent figure around school. During these four years Frank has done a great deal for his class and Taft by serving as President of the Press Club and Chairman ol' the Day Boy Committee. Entering Taft from nearby lVaterbury, Tucky has always ranked near the top of his class scholastically. Last spring found Frank out on the diamond, heeling the man- agership of Mr. Pennell's nine. His sincere effort and determination was rewarded at the end of the term when he was elected Varsity baseball Manager. Next year Frank will enter the halls of Yale, and we all wish him the best of luck both in college and in later life. lVe are confident that he will be as big a success as he was at Taft.

ROBERT LORING BRISTOL Gamma One Year at Taft Yale Among the new faces to appear last fall was Happy's . It wasn't long before everyone was aware of his ability in all phases of school life. At Milford High, Happy Bris won his letter twice in football and track. Through the same skill he has helped the Taft teams. ln the fall Bris was one of the stal- warts on the Varsity football team, while in the winter he turned to wrestling, holding down the 177-pound class. This spring he will be a great addition to the track team. Bris has had time also for extra-curricular activities. His fine voice has placed him in the Glee Club and the Church Choir. When Happy graduates next June, he will be part- ing with countless friends that he has made through his good-natured personality. We all wish him the best of luck at college.
