SWEET REVENGE FOR
JIMMY FITZPATRICK

Behind the defeat of Yale by Boston
college, made possible by a field goa
kicked by Jimmy Fitzpatrick, lies 4
rather Interesting little story. 1t SEEM
that a couple of years ago. upon grad
uating from the high school at Meri
den, Conn. Jimmy planned to ente
Yale and to take part in athletics a
that university. Johnny Mack. the Yal'
trainer, looked the boy over one dap
how Ier, and remarked that he would
me- er make an athlete. Mack's hastily
/5ndered judgment caused Fitzpatrick
20 change his mind about going to Yale
and he entered Boston college. Ths
blow he delivered to the Bulldogs
pride, therefore, brought great delighi
to the heart Of the Meriden boy.
