After sticking to straight football for the first two per- 3ods Bridgeport resorted to aeronau- tics in the third canto. Ed Hickey hurled four passes. The first was completed when Johnny Roh1man leaped into the air and snuggled the ball; the second grounded; the third was knocked down and the fourth which was consummated gave Bridge port a touchdown.

Trinity Proud of
 Record on Gridiron

Hartford, Nov. 6-Trinity Col lege is proud of it's football record this fall as the students believe their team is drawn from as few students as that of any other Eastern college. Coach Drew has just 12S men, including the usual proportion of men with physical disabilities, to draw from.
 Freshmen and students who have just transferred to Trinity from other colleges cannot play varsity football. That eliminates 40 per cent. of the student body. Eligibility rules are strict, and 15 per cent. of the student body are on probation and unable to play. That narrozys the choice to 1aS men.
