SWEET REVENGE FOR
JIMMY FITZPATRICK
Behind the defeat of Yule by Boston
college, mitde possible by a Held goal
kicked by Jimmy Fltzpatrlck, lies u
lather Interesting little story. It seems
that u couple of years iigo, upon grad
uating from the high school at Mori
den, Conn., Jimmy planned to enter
Yale und to tnke part In athletics at
that university. Johnny Mack, the Yule
trainer, looked the boy over ono day,
however, and remarked that he would
never make an athlete. Mack's hastily
rendered Judgment caused Fltzpatrlck
to change his niliiil nbout going to Yale
and he entered Boston college. The
blow he delivered to the Bulldog's
pride, therefore, brought great delight
to the heart of the Merlden boy.
