BULKELEY SLUGS ITS WAY TO
 VICTORY OVER ACADEMY TEAM

Outweighed and outslugged by Bull l kelley in a free for all game the Acao- amy lost to the Whalers at the Cam pus Saturday afternoon by a score of A to G. Bulkeley played brllnant football throughout the game but they marred it by the dirty tactics which | the officials were lax in seeing but | which did not escape the fans. The | Black and Orange players were no respecters of persons and anyone wearing the red and white was leglt- | innate prey to take a clout at regard | less of whether he had the ball or not. Bulkeley sent up an awful wall when Hartford rubbed their ears a little but seemed to think it was man. ly to do it in Norwich. The only tune the officials took any notice or the rough work was when the Academy could stand it no longer and fought hack. Once the referee did penalize BuIkeley when an Academy man was Town and a Bulkeley man deliberate " jumped on him.
 Bulkeley took advantage of every opportunity to use their fists when they could ge taway with 1t without being seen. If man came around an end and they couldn't block or hold him it wac their policy to SOCK him one in the jaw. When he was down then it was their move to jump on his neck, grind his face in the dirt and otherwise try to mutilate him. Marquis of Queensbury rules did not apply in this game it was the rough and tumble tactics of the lumber camps that governed their conduct.
 The unprejudiced opinion of several onlookers was that Dillon, Bulkeley was the dirtiest player ever seen on the local field. Not alone on Bulkeley does shame fan but also on Voca- tfonaI as John Dvyer, a member of the Vocational team, attacked some Academy rooters on the side line and had to be escorted from the field by the police. Certainly the action of the New London boys should be food for the thought for the high school f2cul- ties as well as all lovers of real sport in New London.
 It was a pity that such an excel lent football machine as the Bulkeley team should smear themselves with such dirt when they could win with good clean football .
 Bulkeley had a heavy line, a fast and hard hitting backfield which was given good interference on every play. Their ends were Apeedy and their forward passing game was good. In contrast the Academy line was porous letting the Bulkeley backs filter through with only slight opposition. Their forward passing game was ter rible and three passes that were thrown were captured by Bulkeley players, two of which ultimately re- suited in Bulkeley touchdowns. The passes that should have netted large gains were either dropped or broken up. The Academy boys showed flashes of football at times especially in the quErter after the Bulkeley team had captured A forward and carried it over <or Cae first touchdown. The Academy Jr.1Ez;2lt the ball to the 30 yard line on lf1ls plays and then on an on-side kick Williams recovered the ball behind the BLdkeiey line. This was the only score tEat the Academy made although they threatened Oa1ce or twice on long runs by Williams and Dinty Kilroy. Dinty although a midget in stature loomed mighty big when it came to the fighting spirit. Mileski and Will liams also played hard and well and the roughing by the Bulkeley team Dnly made them fight the harder.
 The Academy spirit showed the best in the big numbers that turned out for the game and lined up on the north side of the gridiron, with LOT raine Jack Holt" Macpherson, Clyde Carpenter, and Miss Sheldon acting as cheer leaders.
 The fans on the sidelinas also en- tered into the spirit of the game and several Norwich fans engaged in a pitched battle with the Bulkeley sup porters- The BuIkeIey rooters after making several nasty cracks when the Norwich fans protested the dirty play ing of the BuIkeley went home with sore eyes and svFooIen noses
 With making all allowances for the heat Of batIle and the slugging of BuIkeley 1t cannot be denied that Bull keAey has the best high school team in this section of the state and should -oHme through the season with a real renoBd
