'47 Hartford High School The Class 3 Dedication We, the class of 1947, have dedicated this book to John P. Gates. This choice could not have been a better one. The book could not have been dedicated to a finer teacher or a better friend. Mr. Gates was one of our first Home Room teachers, when we were in the Seventh grade. During the war years he was called from Hartford High to serve in the Army. Now, in our Senior year, we are together again. Mr. Gates has worked hard for our good; he has done many things for us, and we have had many wonderful times together. Thanks for everything—Mr. Gates. 5 A p predation We found, when we came to the question of appreciation for this book, that there were two people to whom we owed much. For this reason, these pages of appreciation are dedicated to Mrs. Grace Roy, and John A. Freitas. Although you are no longer with us, Mrs. Roy, for all you have done we would like to say Thanks and good 6 ' ■ Appreciation To Mr. Freitas—for your kind understanding of all our problems, and the many things which you have done to make things easier for us may we say, “May your path be as smooth as you have made ours ” 7 In Memoriam On April 16, 1946, our class suffered the sad loss of one of its most congenial members, Earl Coffin. His ready smile and pleasant disposition made him a popular member of our class. We, who were associated with Earl in the Wilder Grammar School and Hartford High School, will long revere his friendship and companionship. 8 This page is in honor of the members of our class who were called to the service of their country. Thomas Burke Donald Courteinanche Carl Porter Leon Ingham, whose picture we do not have, is serving in the lb S. Army. 9 Table of Contents Dedication Appreciation Mem or i am Servicemen Principal s Address Faculty-Class of '47 Underclasses Sports Activities Principal's Address To the Members of the Senior Class: Yours lias been a remarkable class. On the whole, all students are eager to grasp new sources of information with the intention of using it as a means to present and future opportunity. Along with seeking this formal educational knowledge, the all-important phase of living with your fellow-man has been developed within you, and consequently, your class has developed a distinct personality. This group personality has l een recognized through participation in all extra-curricular activities. Yes, a spirit that has been contagious to each and every member in the class, as well as to the faculty and student body. Speaking for the faculty, I can sincerely say that we will miss the class of 1947. We who are left at Hartford High hope that your future will lie bright and that you never lose the spirit and foresight shown by your class personality- Your by-word of having every class event an event that would surpass all past events was an excellent one. May it stay with you individually in all of your future experiences. Sincerely, John A. Freitas 11 Teacher's Degrees John A. Freitas, Ph.B., Ed.M. Boston College World History Carlyle Adams, B. S.

In the twelve years that we have been in school a definite pattern has been formed in our lives. I believe that when we graduate it will seem as though a door has been closed behind us, separating us from many of those things that have been ours. We shall no longer be a part of the High School; we shall no longer be together as a class; and next September for the first time, we shall not return to Hartford with the underclassmen. It is the duty of a President to inform his classmates that each must continue to work hard through the years that follow, to continue always to attempt to climb higher up the ladder of success. Knowing how you have worked as a class it seems useless for me to tell you that you must try even harder, for I know that you will work as hard individually as you have as a class. I am sure that the majority of you still remembers that night in the fall of 1940 when The Class of ’40 presented us with our class banner. From that time on we have worked together as a class. We have had many good times together and because of our efforts much has been accomplished by us. Each one of us is proud of our banner. We are prouder still of the ideals and the tradition for which it has come to stand. Because of the way in which our class has worked together, joining forces to help the class and one another over the rough spots an idea of unity, and of class spirit has grown up amongst us which I am sure we will never forget. Our class has proven to be a credit to each of us because we have worked always for the good of the class. As each of you goes along throughout your life, making new acquaintances and being confronted by new problems, it is my sincere hope that you will always remember us. THE CLASS OF ’47 I believe also, that sometime when you are in trouble and need a little help, if you will remember our blue and white banner and the things which it represents, you will somehow receive some of that courage that has helped to make THE CLASS OF 1947, Hartford High School, the great one that it has lx en.

Ephraim is another steady classmate—that is, usually! He really surprised us on the Sociology trip. That's okay. Ephraim, we’d like to see your hidden charms more often!

There’s nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility. Ray is one of the quieter members of our class but underneath l� e« a cheerful disposition If there is anything you want to know about farming just consult our Ray. And you should also hear the mean tune he plays on his violin. ESTHER RCTH BROWN Home Room Committees 1. 2. 3. 4; Latin C lub 2; Assemblies 3; Elective Chorus 4; Stunt Night 4. “Begone, dull care! I prithee. Begone from me—.“ Wherever there is an appropriate remark needed Esther always comes up with one of her dry, subtle quips. And there's a certain Porafredite who takes up most of her time lately.

I know whereof I speak. Norma’s t.dents lie in many fields, as the above list will prove. In every musical organisation you wil! always find Norma, one of the mainstays of the group. As for her outside interests, just ask a certain Sea-going bellhop from Tafts Flat 22 JOSEPH LIONEL CHOQUBTTE Joe Marching Band 1, 2, 3,4; Concert Band 1.2,3 4; Orchestra 1.2.3. 4; Student Council 1, 2, 4; Stunt Night 1.2.3. 4; Newspaper 1.3.4; Freshman Dance Committee 1; Hartfordians 1. 2; Dance Band 3; Home Room President 1. 2; Class President 2. 4; Baseball 2. 3. 4; Baseball Tournament 3; Prise Speaking 3; Junior Prom 3; Student Band Director 4; Year Book 4; Senior Play 4; Ski Club 4; New England Music Festival 4; Vermont Music Festival 3. 4; Football Manager 4; Boy s State 3. Men, like bullets, go farthest when they are smoothest” Joe is one of the more versatile members of our class, as you can see. Music is one of his best avocations. And you should see him beat thorn drums I If there’s ever a play to be written at the last minute just call on Joe, he's sure to turn up with something original every time. As an undertaker we're sure lie'll go far. Anyhow we can always depend on Joe; he'd be the last person to let us down! BRUCE HERBERT COLE BrucU Home Room Committees 2; Stunt Night 3. 4; Sports Club 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Newspaper 4; Year Book 4; Ski Club 4: Senior Play 4. No sense has he of ills to come Nor care beyond today. Another tiger from Qu chcc Tech! Words cannot express our Brucie—and neither can actions. Many a headache has been caused by his practical jokes. Just ask the tortured teachers! If there's a •hoe hung up somewhere or a hat on Longfellow, you can Ik sun it was none other than you know who! MARION IRENE COMPANION Glee Club 1. 2; Assemblies I; Glee Club Concert I; Stunt Night 1; Home Room Committees 2. 4; Junior Prom Committee 3: Year Book Committee 4. You can believe that I know what I'm about.” Here is the star of the commercial classes. Marion has already proved her capabilities by the swell job she's doing at Millers' every afternoon. She is one of the few in our class who really studies, and we commend her for it.

Love makes a man do many things.”— Well remember Bunt most for his star performances in football and basketball. Bunt returned from the Navy to finish school and we re proud to have him graduate with us. Did you get those manners in the Navy? Anyhow Bunt and Shirley have furnished us with the biggest romance in school, and we offer both of you best wishes for the future. 23 MARGERY ANNE COURTEMANCHE Margie Assemblies I; Home Room Committee I, 2, 3; Stunt Night 2; Outing Club 3; Elective Chorus 4. “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. Margery, stop talking! Margery, get to work! Margery, turn around! Yes, you’ve got it. none other than Margery and you know who. At the Hartland dances, she promenades every Friday night, and we re sure her hearty laughter can be heard around the hall. BARBARA EVELYN DARLING Barb Glee Club 1, 2. 3; Concert I; Basketball L 2; Stunt Night 1, 2, 3, 4; Outing Club 2, 3. 4; Newspaper 1,4; Assemblies I. 2, 3, 4; Latin Club 2; Majorettes 2. 3. 4; Sophomore Night 2; Junior Prom 3; Dramatic Club 3. 4; Home Room Committees 2, 3; Marching Band 3. 4; Concert Band 2. 3; 3-One-Act Plays 3; Senior Play 4. She had the blithest little laugh you ever heard. Where there's fun there’s Barb; where there's a party, there's Barb; where there’s a giggle, there’s Barb; where there’s Sibley there is Barb! And did you see her walk away with acting honors in the Sophomore Play? She’s also one of our telephone operutors, so if you hear a sweet—“Number please it’s probably Barb. But whether she'll remain one is to be seen!

I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Dave is our class worker. If you need anything built or painted just ask Pinky. For proof, take a look at the Senior Lounge in Room 5. He's one of the un-sung heroes of the football line. And did you hear about his batting average in baseball last year. You're O.K. Pinky. JUNE KATHERINE DOUBLEDAY Dubbie Basketball 1, 2, 3. 4.

Is there anybody who doesn't know June? We doubt it! For that cute giggle and turned up nose have made her famous. She’s a whizz at basketball rough that is and you oughta see that Irish temper when it’s up! Just watch out. But there’s someone that doesn’t have to worry about it huh, Paul? 24 SHIRLEY JEAN DUGAN '•Shirr Hand.

It is not good that man should be alone Only this brief space in which to tell all the past, present, and future of our unpredictable classmate; and we could write a book Shirley has been one of our star basketball players during the last four years. As for dancing, no one can beat her! And if you want to hear tin latest song hit just ask Shirley, she'll sing it for you. As for her future it seems to be taken up, doesn’t it Bunt? EVERETT EATON War Stamps Salesman 1; Home Room Committees 1, 2. 3. 4; Base-Ball Manager 2; Junior Prom 3; Stunt Night 4; Assemblies I. 2. 3. Why rush around at such a pace When slow and steady wins the race? Everett’s early attempts to be conversational must have met with serious reverse’s for it takes continual prodding to get him started now. A fellow who seems to prefer his own company to that of his classmates, but who is always willing to please. Remember stunt night? We know that he’ll be a success in whatever he undertakes. SIBLEY REGINALD ESDEN Football I. 2, 3. 4; Basketball 1. 2, 3; Assemblies 1; Vice President 1; l atin Club 1; Stunt Night 1. 2. 3. 4; Subscription Campaign t, 2; ('lass Vice-President 3; Sophomore Night 2; Basketball Tournament 2. 3; Student Council 2. 4; Home Room Treasurer 3; Sports C lub 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Yearbook 4; Newspaper 4; Outing Club 4; Senior Play 4; Boy’s State 3; Freshman Reception 4; Graduation Usher 2. Life is just a jest, and all things show it. I thought so once, but now I know it. Sib’s sense of humor never fails him. or us. And we’ve heard his chemistry experiments are out of this world! If we didn't know his ambitions in the photography field we would say he would go into business with his partner-in-crime. Bruce Cole, as famous chemists. In Josephine Sib can be seen almost any night picking Barb up at the telephone office. Did you carry a football eighty yards the day of the Newport game. Sib? Oh I see. it was in an automobile. DONALD FRED FLETCHER “Don Marching Band I. 2. 3. 4; Concert Band 1. 2. 3. 4; Assemblies 1. 2. 3. 4; Stunt Night 1. 2, 3. 4; Home Room Treasurer. 1.2; Home Room Committees 1,2. 3; War Chest Drive 1; Basketball 2.3. 4; Home Room Representative 3; Student Council 3; Baseball 3, 4; Junior Prom 3; Dance Band 3; Year Book 4; Football Manager 4; State Music Festival 4; Senior Play 4; Freshman Reception 4. Calmness is not always the attribute of innocence. Donald’s car goes everywhere! No doubt he has been seen within the radius of a hundred miles! And we’ve heard some of thosi blind dates have turned out O.K. Whenever there’s anything brewing around town. Donald's in the center of it. you can be sure. We'll miss your jokes and witty poems. 25 KENNETH THEODORE FOGG “ Ken” Home Room Committees I. 2. 3. 4; Stutit Night 2. 3. 4; Football 2, 3; Sophomore Night 2; Junior Prom Committee 3. “A friend in need is a friend in deed.” A little beam of sunshine from the class of '46. Ken came back to us from the service and has become one of the sang.” The girls think he is- oh. so cute. His blue eyes and blond hair have conquered and his victims are glad to fall at his feet. Keep up the good work in college, Ken. GLORIA MAE GRANT Red Home Room Committees 1. 2, 3. 4; Majorettes 2. 3. 4; Stunt Night 2, 3, 4; Marching Band 2. 3. 4; Concert Band 2. 3. 4; Newspaper 3; Glee Club 3; Junior Prom Committee; Outing Club 3, 4; Year Book 4; Assemblies 4. She who has red hair will have red hair till she dyes.” Her flashing red hair and high stepping as a majorette has brought our class redhead many a whistle! But her heart belongs to a certain fellow in West Leb. Right. Frankie? Her sweet disposition has earned her many a friend, and we ll miss her sunny smile in Room V FRED LEE GREENE “Freddie Basketball 1.2. 3; Baseball Manager I; Baseball 2. 3. 4; Stunt Night 2, 3. 4; Football Manager 3; Home Room Committees 2; Basketball Tournament 3. “Happy am I, from care I’m free, Why aren’t they all contented like me? Fred moved to West Leb. but he chose to remain with us at Hartford High. Whenever there’s a joke, no matter how funny, just tell Fred, he'll laugh at it. But seriously, he’s always there to help if we need any assistance. And Fred always manages to have fun. especially on Saturday nights, huh. Fred? RAFFAELE GUARINO ToSy” Home Room Vice-President I, 2. 3; Newspaper 3; Class Treasurer 3. 4.;Yearbook 4. “Then he will talk—good gods, how he will talk.” There are two things our ’’Taffy is famous for; his flashy ties and his giggle. Taffy is known as the talking machine'' and his jokes are often a source of embarrassment to both his classmates-and teachers! He considers himself a pretty good crooner but we hope you never have the misfortune to hear him sing. 26 .

She has two eyes, so soft and brown. Take care! Pat is one of our shy girls, and we never really got to know her until this year. Her pleasing personality and twinkling brown eyes have won her many a friend. We hear she travels to Leb. quite often. What's the big attraction, Pat? ELLEN LOUISE HOLT Home Room Committese 2, 3; Glee Club 1; Latin Club 2, 3; 4-H Club 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Usher Senior Play 4. A smiling look she had, a figure slight. With cheerful air, and step both quick and light. Ellen came to us in our Sophomore year and we don't see how we got along without her. Her curling long eyelashes are the cause of many a flustered heart-beat. Hy the way can you and Esther keep those brothers in line? MAXINE HELEN HUNT Assemblies 1,2; Home Room Committees 1. 2, 3. 4; Stunt Night 1; Junior Prom Committee 3. “Her stature tall—I hate a dumpy woman. Here Is Maxine all dignity! She walks in state While others roam, Her thought on Freeman, Her mind at home. We know that Maxine will make a nice wife. Lucky man!

A lion among ladies is a most dreadful thing. We are all proud of Leo's fine athletic performances—as a tar quarterback and pitcher. We shall also remember him for his noble efforts in English Literature last year and how he tried to exceed Miss Uric’s almost perfect knowledge of the past masters. Leo is one of the fellows you don't hear much from but Still waters run deep. Look at those activities! DONALD EUGENE KENDALL Don'' Football 1, 2, 3. 4; Basketball 1. 2, 3. 4; Baseball 1. 2, 3; Home Room Committees 1, 2, Assemblies 1, 2; Stunt Night 1, 2. 3, 4; Sophomore Night 2; Junior Prom Committee 3; Senior Piny 4. He thqt hath a beard is more than a man Don has taken a very active part in sports during his four years of high school. He proved this by winning the sports award in his Junior year. A certain Sophomore girl has been another of his interests during this past year.

A mighty hunter, and her prey was man. ()uiet! Not Jean, the girl from Victory Circle. She enjoys a good time, she's happy-go-lucky, she never worries, and she gets there just the same. Just at present she's very much interested in a blue “chevy bearing a New Hampshire numl� er plate which is seen in these parts at different times. Here's luck to you Jean, and as parting advice, look before you leap! MARJORY ANN MAXFIELD Mani Marching Band 4; Concert Band 4; Orchestra 4; Home Room Committees 3, 4; State Music Festival 4. A quiet mind in a loud world.” Marjory has been with us only two years but we realize how quiet and reserved she is. What a contrast to some of the rest of us. Vre sure she'll succeed in whatever she tries Good luck. Margie. 28 RICHARD EDWARD MAYETTE Dick Home Room Committees 1,2; Football 4; Basketball 2; Stunt Night. 2. 4; Baseball 4. No sense has he of ills to come Nor care beyond today. Here we gale upon the lad from the great city of Wilder. When something gets under his skin Dick often resorts to vehement language to express his feelings But under his outward suller.nrsf abodes a rich good nature.

And seem a saint, when most I play the devil. Agriculturist is the name for Dave. He likes to hunt too. (up Wood-stock way!) A silent man is he. but he seems to get around. And if you ever forget you're in V ermont just strike up conversation with Dave and his Yankee twang will bring you back. JACK DENMAN PARKER Jacky Assemblies 1. 2, 3. 4; Home Room Committees 1. 2. 3. 4; Stunt Night I. 2. 3. 4; Newsj� aper 3; Latin Club 2. 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Senior Play 4; Ping Pong Tournament 4. My only books Are women's looks And folly’s all they've taught me. Jack would have us believe that he is the eml� odimcnt of knowledge. However, it seems that the emliodiment of knowledge is as talkative as a couple of magpies. Jack is outstanding for his contrariness. He seldom agrees with anyone much less himself. A fellow a® handsome as he is should have a very checkered career behind him. CATHARINE PATCH Assemblies 4; Marching Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Concert Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Orchestra 2, 3; New pa|� er 2, 4; l atin ( lub 2, 3; ( lass Secretary 3, 4; Junior Prom Committee 3; Basketball 2. 3; Girl's State 3; Senior Play 4; Vermont Music Festival 1, 3. 4 And still they gazed and still their wonder grew That one small brain should carry all she knew. The girl who sits in the study hall and works while the rest of us are flirting with time. She has been rather modest about putting herself in the foreground of class activities, but even though she does not take to the limelight, she's always there to help out. Catharine won't need anyone to blaze her trail to success; she II find her own way. 29 VERLA JEAN PEOPLES Home Room Committees 1, 2, 3, 4; Assemblies 1. 2. 3. 4; Home Kc. Award. D.A.R. 3; Stunt Night 1, 2, 3. 4; Senior Play 4. And gladly would she learn, and gladly teach. Verla has proved herself capable of meeting almost every situation, whether it be coiniHising a poem, portraying Mrs. Purcell in our Senior Play, or doing a chemistry experiment. Verla is sure of a brilliant and happy future, and we wish her the best that life can possibly give.

Fie! what a spendthrift she is of her tongue. Rol erta. the serious minded is given to making statements in such a matter-of-fact way that one would never dare contradict her if she said that the Derby Line was a mark on a man's forehead. She is one of the ever-faithful J. J. Newberry’s salesgirls. She is also musically inclined as her record in band and choir has proven. ALBERT POLAND Stunt Night 1,2, 3, 4; Home Room Committees 1,2, 3, 4; Assemblies 1; Junior Prom Committee 3; Senior Play Committee 4. A man that blushes is not quite a brute. Ladies! Here he is! The most ferocious woman-hater not yet in captivity on the Hartford High Campus. He is rabid, wild, and vicious! Don't be alarmed, walk right up. He gets that way only when he tackles Hartford High's girders, climbing around on them as easily as a cat. That reminds us, remember the cat in Stunt Night? DOROTHY KIMBALL REYNOLDS Pot Home Room Committees 2, 3, 4; Assemblies 2, 3, 4; Stunt Night 4. Her eyes had all the seeming of a demon that is dreaming.

The scenes were laid in a boarding house of a small college town on the day before commencement. The characters were: Ed Burns (Donald Kendall), who is on the trail of a new explosive; Howard Brant, (Jack Parker), who is trying desperately to write a Zoology paper on “slugs” so he can graduate the next day; Vic Lewis (John Simonds), the artist who manhandles his model. Oh what a mistake! Anne Purcell (Jean Kinne), the millionaires daughter, who is in love with Howard; Vivian George (Pat Healey), Vic’s girl friend; Lou Herron (Barbara Darling), a Journalism student whose aim is to get the chemical genius to take her to the commencement ball; Mrs. Spangler (Nancy Tenney), who is in a dither trying to keep everyone straightened out; Mr. Purcell (Bruce ('ole), Anne’s father who gets mistaken for a model; Mrs. Purcell (Verla Peoples), a general nuisance; President Dixon (Sibley Esden), his main concern is a new science building for Brookfield College; Professor Bean (Donald Fletcher), the Zoology professor and Aunt Maude (Catherine Patch) who goes to work on the ’bug man’ to help Howard graduate.

Dorothy Wright The History of the Class of'47 FRESHMAN YEAR PREAMBLE: Tlu class of '47 now gives its honest, candid, unbiased, and accurate description of the historical events in its four years’ existence. At last! The dream of being a Freshman had arrived, and we the class of '47 settled down in rooms 1 and 15 with 76 eager students. The front dcxir was opened wide for us, which meant that we didn t have to go through the side door That was a great privilege. We had had enough of sneaking in the back way. This made us truly realize that we were at last worthy freshmen. We held all our class meetings in Room 1, under the supervision of Miss Van Deusen and Mr. Currier. Our first step was to elect class officers. We elected as follows: President........................................Everett Smith Vice-President ........................... Blanche Tlurrien Secretary ....... . Mary' J. f lay ton Treasurer......................................Raymond Nalette Student Council John Simonds, Joseph Choquette, Leo Johnson We participated in Stunt Night, and we presented a horse opera which did not seem to measure up to the judges standards. We were ably represented in ( dee ( lub, Band. Orchestra, Outing ( lub, Newspaper staff, Latin club. Basketball, Baseball, Assemblies, Land, (dee Club concerts, and various other activities. SOPHOMORE CLASS In the fall of 1644, the class of ’47 again entered Hartford High no longer as lowly Freshmen, but as Sophomores. Class officers were chosen in September. Joe Choquette was elected President; Everett Smith, Vice-President; Nancy Tenney, Secretary; and Ray Nalette, Treasurer. Renumbering the outcome of Stunt Night when we were Freshmen, we decided not to let it happen again, so we ap]minted the Stunt Night committee at our first class meeting. With the help of Mrs. Roy and Miss Hall. “Amoozin But Confusin’ ” won first prize. For Sophomore Night we had a one-act play entitled “Love In Bloom, with a dance following. Before we knew it, warm spring days were here, with the Juniors talking about Junior Prom and the Seniors thinking about graduation. 41 JUNIOR YEAR We returned in the fall of '45 to start one of our most successful years. That fall we elected the following as our class officers: Leo Johnson, President; Sibley Esden, Vice President; Catherine Patch, Secretary; and Raymond Nalette, Treasurer. Raymond was later replaced by Raffaele Guarino, because he left school after the first semester. Donald Fletcher represented our class in the newly organized Student Council. The business was then centered around the Junior Prom which was the big event of the year. We were very successful due to exceptional leadership and foresight of Joseph Choquette, whom we elected the Chairman of the Prom C ommittee. e lost a net amount of approximately three dollars, and everyone who went had a wonderful time. Some of the class personalities at the Prom were: Leo Johnson with the charming red head Gloria Grant. Sibley Esden with his flame, Barbara Darling. Bruce Cole with Jean Kinne, John Simonds with Lilyan DePalo, Donald Fletcher with Claire O’Neill. I he class received a great shock near the end of the year when Earl Coffin, one of our classmates met with a fatal accident while experimenting with some chemicals. During the course of the year Thomas Burke and Donald Coutemanche left school to go into the Navy, and Carl Porter went into the Army along with Leon Ingham. When we returned from our Christmas vacation we happily received oui long awaited rings, even though most of us were broke. We ended a very prosperous year with a trip to Lake Morey. SENIOR HISTORY In this final chapter of our history, we deal with our last and greatest year We had three returned veterans with us: Robert W'ilcox, Bunt Connolly, and Kenneth Fogg. During the year, we lost two classmates, but we still had fifty students left, who made this year a success. The first event of the year was Freshman reception. We initiated the Frosh to Hartford High School, and they were accepted by the mighty Seniors. In the fall Nancy Tenney was voted D. A. R. Good Citizenship girl for being an outstanding citizen of the class. I he two top honored students, that were announced by Mr. Freitas, were Catherine Patch, Valedictorian; and Leo Johnson, Salutatorian. As we needed able officers to guide us, we decided we couldn’t have had a better choices than Joseph Choquette, as President; Louis Sacco, Vice president; Catherine Patch, Secretary; Raffaele Guarino, Treasurer; Student Council members: John Simonds, Leo Johnson, Joseph Choquette and Sibley Esden. Nancy Tenney was appointed to represent the office. 42 Then ns usual “Stunt Nielli came roiling around again, and this was our last year to participate. We had great hojjes of walking off with the first prize, but to our great disappointment the Freshmen took it. We presented a “Visit to An Asylum.” The class of “47” distinguished itself during its Senior year in the field of music. The music field is a specialty of the class. Band, a cappella choir, and orchestra are all heavily sprinkled with '47 talent. There were various other activities attended by the Seniors such as, Newspaper, Outing Club, Ski Club, Dramatic Club, Basketball, Football, Baseball, and Student Council. The one big event we looked forward to from the beginning of the year had at last arrived. We presented to the public on March 2(), our Senior Flay, Spring Fever,” under the direction of Mrs. Moon and Mr. Gates. It proved to be a great success. Filling out applications for colleges anti positions, and working on the Yearbook, took up most of our time the last few months. Then at last came the most important week of the year. We had our Class Day, Baccalaureate Sunday, and last of all, Graduation. We had completed the four years of our high school life, four years never to be forgotten by any member of the class of “47”. 43 Spring Fever TIME: 1970 Synopsis of preceding installments Stopping in White River Junction on her way home from the Far Hast NANCY TENNEY who has been founding missions in China and India, meets JACK PARKER a former classmate, who has become a world known newspaper reporter for the New York Herald Tribune. Nancy inquired alxmt some of her old friends and Jack informed her that although he is just visiting his folks he has found that JOE CHOQUETTE was last heard of running his own “swanky” funeral parlor in Miami, Florida, and that I)OROTH WRIGHT was running a beauty parlor in Hollywood. She had gained world renown when she created a new hair style for GLORIA GRANT for her new picture “Gone With the Breeze.” Gloria, the most popular leading lady in Hollywood, was starred opposite LEO JOHNSON. They are hoping to get Oscars for their fine performance. The next day Nancy left for Florida figuring that with a year to go before she must continue her missionary work, she might as well visit a few of her old classmates. Arriving in Florida, Nancy proceeded to Miami, in search of Joe. After hours of searching she came upon a large modern building with a sign in front of it reading “Choquette’s Funeral Home.” After knocking several times to no avail she went to a neighboring home and asked if they knew where Mr. Choquette was. The neighbor turned out to be YERLA PEOPLES. She told Nancy that Joe had gone insane trying to keep the money end of his business balanced and that he was taken to RAFFAELE GEARING'S “J. P. Gates Memorial Hospital for the Insane” in Dayton, Ohio. “Miss” Guarino built the hospital as a memorial to his beloved teacher, Mr. Gates, back at Hartford High School. Nancy left for Dayton immediately greatly depressed about what she had learned. Cpon arriving in Dayton, she immediately rushes to the hospital. When she enters the hospital she is greeted by RITA WOOD who after years of study is now one of the outstanding women in the field of nursing. Although greatly surprised Nancy was very pleased to see her again after so many years. After many minutes of pleasant conversation she found out that CATHERINE PATCH is now a tree surgeon working in the Yellow Stone National Park, which is now under the management of KENNETH FOGG who finally graduated from the University of Michigan with a “monkey’s degree.” It took him quite a while to learn to climb trees like a monkey but after fifteen years of earnest study he finally got his degree. Nancy then asked about “Miss” Guarino and was informed that although “Taffy” was usually, around right now he wras visiting DONALD FLETCHER who, after graduating from Kingspoint, was recently appointed Admiral of the Fleet at Camp Billings. Nancy was greatly disappointed on hearing this, but she then decided to visit Catherine hoping to find out more about her former classmates. 44 When Nancy arrived she went to the administration building in the park and was greeted by the cheery smile of MARION COMPANION, who after leaving Miller’s where she had held the position as private secretary to RICHARD MAYKTTE who was now the head of the executive department, she immediately acquired the position of Secretary of the Interior of the Administration Building. Nancy inquired about Catherine and Marion told her that Catherine was busy performing a difficult operation on the limb of a spruce tree and right now was worrying about the patient since the supply of plasma was running out. Nancy said that she would wait for Catherine and while she was waiting inquired about DOROTHY REYNOLDS. Marion told her that Dorothy and LUCILLE VINCENT were running a dress shop in New York city. She also told her that RITA SENICAI. and SHIRLEY JACKSON were running a blacksmith's shop in Stowe, Vermont. Catherine then arrived all tired out but happy since her operation was a success. . She was overjoyed on seeing Nancy and told her that she w as the second person that had been in to see her that day. JOAN WEBSTER, who is an authority on pigs feet, stopped in on one of her pickling tours around the country. She told us that RAYMOND ADAMS, who she confidently con-tided to us had been her secret love since she first knew him (don’t tell him, will you.) was playing Hercules for RALPH SANDERSON’S Zip Zip Vitamin Co. Story continues as follows: VIII Catherine said that she had just received a letter from DONALD KhN-DALL. She read it to Nancy and this is what it said: Dear Catherine: LOUIE SACCO and I have just returned from our recent expedition in Africa. We have brought back many heretofore unknown specimens. Will have them displayed at the Boston Cardens next Monday. Incidentally we have just bought out the Barnum and Bailey circus. You might want to know that JEAN KINNE went to Africa with us and is now teaching school there. Yours sincerely, Donald Kendall Catherine turned the radio on hoping to hear DA ID DEAN’S new program sponsored by CHASE’S Toothpaste Company. David came on just then and announced that MARCER COUR IEMANC HE has just broken the Trans-Atlantic Air Record. She piloted a plane which she built herself in North Hartland, Vermont, across the stormy Atlantic in exactly 120 minutes and 31 seconds. Boston: The Red Sox today lost it’s tenth successive game. It was reported that SIBLEY ESDEN, manager, is contemplating handing in his resignation. A special bulletin has just arrived from Madison Square Garden, New York. Five minutes ago, ESI HER BROWN won the womens wrestling championship of the world. 45 Have you In-m discouraged with the looks of your teeth lately? Do you want teeth as beautiful as ELLEN HOLT’S, that famous television actress? If so, drop into your neighboring drug store today and order N )l M A 11 ASK’S tooth paste. The results of this experiment will amaze you. That’s all for now folks, but I’ll be back in a Hash with a flash, so don’t go away. “Well, I guess that’s enough news for today,” said Catherine as she turned oft the radio. You know, Catherine, practically every occupation has been filled by one of our classmates. I haven’t heard of any of them going into teaching, have you?” I've heard that JUNE DOUBLEDAY was teaching the small children of West Hartford how to ride the saw horses correctly, said Catherine. “I think I saw MAXINE HUNT’S name in the Teachers’ Manual. I read where she was an athletic coach at Dartmouth. Incidentally, she is teaching ping pong,” said Nancy. “I got a letter from BARBARA DARLING yesterday saying that she, “PHIL SACCO and LOU WILLIAMSON were still pushing plugs at tin-telephone office.” Nancy stayed at Catherine’s house that night and left the next day for San hrancisco to take a boat for Korea where she would continue her missions. Conclusion As Nancy boarded the boat she noticed tin- person guarding the gang plank looked alarmingly familiar. Drawing nearer she now saw it was JOHN SIMON DS. “Why, John,” exclaimed Nancy. What are you doing here? I thought they only hired men to work on these boats.” “They do, drawled John, “but I traded my wife to the Captain so I could get a job to support her, but now that the Captain has my w ife I don’t need a job. but he won't give her back to me so I’m going to keep the job to make him pay for his unfairness. Do you understand now? I guess so.” laughed Nancy. Then wishing John luck, she disappeared into the crowds. No sooner had Nancy left John than she bumped into SHIRLEY DUGAN. Well, it seems I’m running into all of my old classmates,” laughed Nancy. “How are you and what is Bunt doing now?” “You mean Bernard Connolly!! Why that—-Do you know wffiat he did. He started going w-ith the neighbor’s daughter, and she’s only two years old. First he tried to tell me he was only a baby sitter but when he started wearing his baby clothes—I left him flat.” “But he’s rather young, to be left alone isn’t he?” asked Nancy. 46 “Oh! He’s all right. I left him in the orphanage at Sing Sing. He looked so funny when I left him, peering out through the bars of his crib.” “Gee! I hat’s too bad,” said Nancy solemnly. on know 1 just got hack from China. I have started missions over there, and you d be surprised at all of our old classmates I've ‘humped’ into. Have you heard from anyone? “Oh yes! You know what VIRGINIA WATERMAN is doing? Well, Ginny is touring the country, and she’s still looking for ‘Mike.’ I heard the other day she walked into a saloon and asked if anyone had seen him and four drunks jumped up and scared her out. What’s she done, gone nuts?” inquired Nancy. “Nope, she's just the same,” replied Shirley. “And have you heard that E ERETT EATON is on the loose. He shot his way out of a hank, taking a large sum of money. You know we always said he’d have business in a hank. Well, lie’s had it. Remember FRED GREENE. He was discharged from the Navy because he had a light with some high officer. Always said he’d ride the waves so lie built a raft and sailed down the Connecticut river; now he’s reported lost at sea. Surely you read about DAVID MOORE, in last week’s papers, how he married his fifth wife. We didn’t think he'd even find one. Oh, Nancy! You knew JAMES WITHINGTON had his own radio show, didn’t you. Yes, there he is a great comedian, so young, handsome and so, so shy and ROBERTA PERKINS is his leading lady. Just think, lie’s so tall and she’s so short, I think I would have looked much better with him. but then I had my chance. ()h, dear, such is life, always down on you.” “You know I had the same experience, Shirley, so don’t feel too badly,” Nancy replied soothingly. “You have?” Shirley asked in amazement, “Who was it?” Well, I’ve never told anyone, but-—Oh! You remember the cute little fellow I used to sit and daydream of all the time, planning the things we could do together.” Nancy sighed dreamily. “Please tell me, before I break a blood vessel or something, Shirley urged. “Well, it was that handsome EPHRAIM ADAMS. I liked him so much and do you know what MARJORIE MAXFIEI.D did! She grabbed, literally grabbed him away from me; just as I was going to ask the question too. Oh, I was so heartbroken, that's the reason I left the country and started my missions,’ said Nancy now sobbing in utter grief. “Now he has a cute little home of his own and is running his own corner store. Gee, what fun I could be having.” And so we leave Nancy, as she dreamily returns to her missions in far off Korea. 47 Will We, the class of 1947, of Hartford High School of the Town of White River Junction, in the County of Windsor and State of Vermont, being of unsound mind and memory, do make, publish and declare this to be our last W ill and Testament, in manner following, that is to say; hirst, to the Class of '48 we bequeath the essentials of a SENIOR: dignity, honor, and intelligence.

This year, as Juniors, we came back to school knowing we had a big difficulty to face, the Junior Prom. To make this event a big success, it took a lot of hard work and planning. In the fall we elected new officers for our class year. They were as follows: President............................................Francis Filosa Vice-President.............................Henry Martaniuk Secretary.......................................Shirley Reynolds Treasurer ......... Paul Laskey Student Council-Representative .... Jane Bogle We were happy to have with us this year, three new students: Charlotte Morey, Anscn Thurston, and Willis Howard. Our students are especially interested in the field of sports such as: Football, Baseball, and Basketball. We, as Seniors next year, hope to be as successful as we were as Juniors. 53 Sophomore Class First row, left to right: M. French, J. Thibodeau, B. Merritt, J. Leavitt, D. Davidson. A. Baidas . , A.

The big downfall of the year was Stunt Night. Ye presented a skit about a “come as you are party,” for which we received third prize. This was a terrible blow after walking away with the honors in our freshman year.

Alan Cooke The first activity that was held this year was the seventh grade reception and initiation. We have had, in cooporation with the seventh grade, several activities during the year. They were: two assemblies, the Junior High Carnival, basketball games and a basketball tournament, which was won by 8-A, and a Christmas Party, which included a tree and refreshments. To contribute money to the Junior High Fund, the seventh and eighth grades sold magazine subscript ions. Wo earned approximately two hundred dollars. 50 ’ Seventh Grade First row, left to right: P.

Toomey Vice-President............................................. Jane Rogers Secretary.............................................James M. Devins Treasurer..................................................Peter Simonds Although we were divided into two homeroom groups, many of our activities were planned as a class unit. We shall always remember the reception given to us in September by the eighth grade. We did our share to make the Junior I ligli Carnival what it was. In December there was a Christmas program in Room 15 followed by a supper and a tree in the cafeteria. In January we presented an amateur program for assembly. In February we enjoyed a Valentine party in Room 10. Then came the Curtis Publishing Company Campaign with the prizes and all the ice cream we could eat. In May we had an orientation program for the present sixth grade. In June we held our own in the Junior High Field Day events on the Athletic field. Now, at the close of a busy year, we say we are all very happy to climb the ladder one more step to become less noisy eighth graders. 57 • • it hie tics. 58 Football Pint row, left to right: Paul Chapin.

The season was highlighted by the victory over Lebanon, also the hrst in seven years, and by seventeen consecutive playing periods during which we held our opponents scoreless. Four members of the team made honors in nearby newspapers: Leo Johnson, Bernard Connolly, Louis Sacco, and Robert Wilcox. The Varsity was made up as follows: R E Connolly (Co-Capt) R G Sibley Esden L G David Dean L E Henry Martaniuk R H Albert Fletcher F B John Simonds Subs: Paul Chapin, Dick Mayette and Bill Howard. Managers: Joseph Choquette, Donald Fletcher, and Donald Wright. Junior Varsity The Junior Varsity was composed of twenty-one men. They played six games this year and had a lot of valuable experience. Only three lettermen unexpected to return next year which will mean quite a revamping in the line up. It is hoped that the members of the J. V. team will prove as good next year, as they appeared promising this year. Comments by Coach Adams Ours was the only team in this area of eleven schools, except West Lebanon to go through the season scoring in every game. He also notes that ours was the only team to hold New| ort to a goose egg through the season. Let the good work go on.

Mr. Jtirras Manager...............................................David Dean Assistant Manager, Cary l ilosa, Knute Alquist, Donald Carpenter The hoy’s varsity was made up of ten men. The first team included: Right forward, Louis Sacco; left forward, Bernard Connolly; center, Conrad Johnson; right guard, Donald Kendall; left guard, Albert Fletcher. The defense was set up as a 2-1-2 zone, lit playing this type of zone you play the man instead of the hall. Occasionally they shifted into a man to man defense. Most of the scoring was done by Sacco who ended up as the second highest scorer in the Southern Vermont League, with Connolly and Johnson, who finished among the top fifteen, assisting. Our boys didn't make a tourney berth, but they had a play-off with Brattle-bom for a chance to go to the tournament. 11 ended in the fa or of Brat tleboro, although Hartford led throughout the whole game. Brattleboro won by four points, which they achieved in the last seconds of play. Harford had a fairly successful season as they won nine games and lost ten. The play-off made it nine wins and eleven losses. Rutland High School, a team in the Southern Vermont League, who didn't lose a game in eighteen straight, played Hartford. Hartford led throughout the first half but couldn’t garner enough ability to beat them. The townspeople, as well as the team, acclaimed this as one of the best games of the year. Hartford will lose the following men next year. Captain Louis Sacco, Bernard Connolly, Donald Kendall. Leo Johnson, and John Simonds.

Approximately 38 men, or enough to field four teams, answered Coac h Adams' call for candidates. Foremost among this group of young hopefuls were eight letter-men. holdovers from the '46 season. They were “Pinkie Dean and Joe ( hocpicttc, able backstops; Leo Johnson and Fred Greene, alternate pitcher and shortstop combination; Connie Johnson, first base; Donald Kendall, second base ; Albert Fletcher, right field; and Henry Martaniuk, center field. Added to this group from the '46 JV squad are Paul Laskey on third base, Knute Alquist in the outfield, and Donald Fletcher as substitute infielder. The saddest part of this is that six of these boys are seniors, and will not return for se rvice next year. The schedule for this year seems to be the best that we have had in many years. The varsity has a 14-game schedule while the JV’s have 10 games. For the first time in several years Hartford will play a home and home scries with Springfield. The schedule for the Varsity follows.

The a cappella choir can justifiably boast a successful and eventful third year of life. Since its formation three years ago, by Mrs. Whitcomb, it has indeed advanced far on the road to better music and better organization. This year the choir boasted a “B” choir made up of hopeful aspirants to the “A” choir. In that way the choir was never at a loss for talented singers. This may well prove to be one of the most important actions which Mrs. Whitcomb has taken since it will improve the choir by giving the singers a longer and more varied experience. The choir this year had a truly impressive list of events, as follows: Entertained- Wilder P. T. A.; District P. T. A.; Junior and Senior Hartford P. T. A. for National Education Week; Loyal Club, twice in December and January; H. H. S. Assemblies, twice in October and November; Veterans’ Hospital, Christmas Program; Woodstock High School, credit for assembly; Hanover High School, Exchange Assembly; Joint Concert with H. H. S. Band; Christmas Assembly, in connection with Dramatic Club; A cappella choir concert, April 11; Concert in Chester. Vermont; State Convention of Odd Fellows and Re-bekahs; Vermont Festival Audition, Burlington; New England Festival Audition, Portsmouth, New Hampshire. These were only a few of the engagements. At the time of this writing the choir has quite a few engagements pending. We hope that our aims this year have been upheld, that we have brought more and better music to Hartford High School. We look forward eagerly to the coming year of 47-48. 73 Orchestra First row, left to rinht: M. Hoisington. L. DePalo. A. Lyman. N. Nott. M. Hutchinson. E. Peabody. M. Torino. J. Simonds. C. Patch, J.

Under the direction of Joe Choquette, the marching band got off to a good start arid made its first public appearance in the parade at the Firemen’s Convention in Bellows halls, where it placed first. 1 hat very evening the band played at the never-to-be-forgotten night football game at Lebanon. The marching band also played for the home football and basketball games. At the first business meeting the following officers were elected: President Vice-President Secretary T reasurer Joe Choquette Marie Hutchinson Catherine Patch Rita Wood Came winter, and the concert band got well under way. We played for many home assemblies, ancl also for the exchange assembly in Hanover. Several memljers attended the New England and Vermont Music Festivals to play in the mass bands, and the whole band attended the Vermont Music Festival at Burlington to take part in the parade and to audition. To top off this successful season, the band gave a concert in the spring and played two concerts for the Odd Fellows, plus playing for the Memorial Day exercises in Norwich, White River, and at the Veteran’s Hospital. 75 Photobugs First row, left to right: R.
