The five top ranking honor students announced by Mr. Holland are as follows: David Logan, Kenneth Hall, Mary Jane Daley, Mary Mock, and Janet Brouillette. All these will speak at Graduation supplemented by Anne Davis, John Bomhower, Lester Bryne, and Richard Brockway. Our class is the first that has been here in the Junior High. It is also the first class to have its members leave for some branch of the service before they graduate. Paul Goodrich is in the Navy and Charles Walsh is in the Army. David Logan is enlisted in the Marines, and leaves after June. On the Navy V-12 program, Kenneth Hall, Gordon Aulis, Lester Bryne, and John Bomhower passed the test and are subject for whatever the Navy may have in store for them. As we go to press, there may be more who will hear from the Navy and the Army 12 program. Our five years here at Hartford High have been great ones for us, and ones that none will ever forget. The future, as always, is uncertain, but whatever the future may hold, these five years at Hartford High are years that can be looked back upon as happy, exciting ones. 21
