What of everlasting value has been passed on to us? Hartford High has created standards of social custom and ideals of inspiration of such worth that even now they remain, playing a vital part in the life of the school. The ideals of democracy from 1847, when the first free school was established and When girls Were admitted, down to the present time when numerous extra-curricular activities are open to each and every one alike, the ideals of friendship and fellowship that have been nurtured and realized through outstanding clubs for both boys and girlsg the ideals of loyalty to school and self: the ideals of dependability, tolerance and un- selfishness-these have ever set high standards for us. Down through the years our sympathetic faculty members, guiding and encouraging us, have brought the realization of these goals closer to us. It is not only the activities and achievements of our class in the last four years that We set forth here: it is the accomplishments of Hartford High in the past three hundred years. Our Alma Mater has given us ideals to which to aspire, traditions to which to be loyal, advancement in education and in extra-curricular Work through which our lives have been broadened. Thus, on leaving old H. P. H. S., We do not close contact With our school altogether, for We, the Class of l938, hope to leave behind us an influence which Will con- tinue to exist in the lives of many more Hartford- ites just as innumerable former graduates have left for us the noble heritage which has been our guiding light.

The earliest record of a school in Hartford lies not in recorded action of the town, but rather in the biography of John Higginson, a grave and scholarly young student of the ministry, who, starting in 1638, prepared young men in the classics in a room of the Reverend Thomas Hooker's home. Out of the shadowy past, John Higginson emerges with vividness as a fine example of our forefathers. In 1642 the town voted to settle thirty pounds a year upon the school, and for the next twenty years it was supported partly by appropriations and partly by tuition fees. The first bequest in its favor was from William Gibbons, who in 1665 gave to the town of Hartford thirty acres of land in the town of Wethersfield for the support of a 4'Lattin Scoolef' ln 1650 the now famous Connecticut Code was passed. Tn this code the parents or masters were enforced to educate the young Hin some honest and lawful calling, if they will not or cannot train them up in learning to fit them for higher employmentsf' Although the code did not seriously affect Hartford, which already had a school, it served to emphasize the importance of education. ln 1664 the trustees under the will of Governor Edward Hopkins gave to the town four hundred pounds for the support of the school. Through Governor Hopkins's bequest, therefore, the Hartford Grammar School fund was greatly in- creased. A portion of the interest derived from this fund is still used for part payment of the salary of a teacher in H. P. H. S., who bears the title of Hartford Grammar School Master. The present Master is Mr. Carleton M. Allen. lt is interesting to note that it was made a 'Afreew school in 1691, about in the middle of the teaching term of Caleb Watson, who was a retired minister. This meant that it was no longer under the supervision of any one church. The master of the school was to receive sixty pounds. The Free Schooli' was one which was managed by the lawyers in the Colony, but it was found that the members of the clergy were generally more conscientious than the lawyers in keeping the school going. After Watson, the records are silent for almost forty years as to his successors. Who were they? Were they more Hpromising young lawyers, or local people who took up the burden for only short periods? Certain it is they were none of the old order which had just passed-John Higginson with his ucomely face adorned with majesty and gracef' the quiet William Andrews of the 'cbeautiful penmanshipf, John Davis, one of the best accomplished persons for learning as ever was bred at Harvardf' and Caleb Watson, Ha constant benefactor to this colonyf, 20 Udbbdb Uiltttltlgb UGDMB The growth of the Hartford Free School was accelerated by the release of the colonists from the last vestige of foreign rule at the close of the Revolution in 1783. The Connecticut Colony soon became an important state of the new nation in the development of which Hartford was destined to lead the education field. With increased prosperity, higher education became desirable. The immense wealth of sea captains and merchants of Hartford and adjacent river ports and the severance of political ties with England were a bright prospect for educational progress. Peaceful times assured the trader that his surplus income might be safely used in improving churches and schools as well as for industrial expansion. Through committees chosen for the purpose, the town of Hartford continued for more than a century to manage the school and the funds accruing from previous bequests until, upon petition oftheutown, the State Legislature in 1798 incorporated the school under the name of the Hartford Grammar School and appointed a board of trustees with the power to fill all vacancies occasioned by death or otherwise. Until 1650, school had been held in private homes. In this year the first separate school building consisting of one room was erected on the corner of Trinity and Elm Streets. The building of 1798 is known to have been a small frame building on the bank of the Little River adjacent to the thoroughfare known as Arch Street, and the school had then an average of thirty pupils. Increased attendance made a larger building necessary, and in 1810 the school was removed to a remodeled law office on what is now Linden Place. Continued increase in attendance soon made this structure inadequate, and in 1828 it was removed to the rear of the lot, and a two-story building with two upper and two lower rooms was erected on its site. Elijah P. Barrows, who had come to the school in 1826, was appointed the new principal and uthree additional teachers were engaged. With this passed the one man classical school and in its place rose a New England Academy. Four years after Barrow's resignation in 1832, Theodore L. Wright was engaged as principal. The era of liberalism and prosperity from the time of Barrows through that of Wright seems to have been brilliant but short lived. Because the wealthier classes were beginning to send their children to private academies and select schools, rather than to the Grammar school, and because the tuition was well above the means of the ordinary family, attendance fell considerably. However, from the ashes of discontent and inadequacy arose the flames of an agitation for educational facilities of a liberal, free, and progressive nature, available to any man's child. In 184-7 the efforts of Henry Barnard and other public-spirited citizens, who had labored to induce the community to assume the udirect charge of public instruction, crowned with a high school which should be cheap enough for the poorest and good enough for the richest fan1ily,'7 resulted in the establishing of a free public high school which was to be open to girls as well as boys. On December 1, 18117, the Public High School House was dedicated with appropriate religious and literary exercises. Joshua D. Giddings of Providence, Rhode Island, was engaged as its first principal. The first principal remained only one term. He was succeeded by Mr. Thomas K. Beecher, who remained for two years. Mr. lVlcLauren F. Cook and Mr. Cephas A. Leach were next in succession, each serving for one term. 21 UCFDID db UKUIHUID UUDTDGD ln 1851 Mr. Thomas W. T. Curtis was chosen principal and served for ten years. He was succeeded by Mr. Hiram A. Pratt who remained three years and five months. In May, 1865, Mr. Samuel M. Capron took charge and served until his death on January 4, 1879. He was succeeded by Mr. Joseph Hall, who retained the position for nearly twenty years. At a meeting of the High School Committee held on November 8, 1893, the resignation of lVlr. Hall as principal of the school was accepted, he being made Principal Emeritus, and Mr. Charles Henry Douglas was chosen in his stead. Mr. Hall retained the position of Principal Emeritus until his death on June 10, 1896. ln April, 1895, the resignation of Mr. Douglas was accepted, and Mr. Edward H. Smiley, who had been connected with the school since 1890, was elected principal. ln 1911 Mr. Smiley resigned as principal and was succeeded by Mr. Clement C. Hyde, the present principal. Mr. Smiley continued as Principal Emeritus and teacher of Latin until his death, October 4, 1928. The first High School building, erected in 1847 at the corner of Ann and Asylum Streets, was a plain three-story, brick structure about seventy feet long by forty feet wide. By 1864 it was necessary to use the assembly hall and playroom space for classrooms because of the increased number of pupils. The situation at the corner of Ann and Asylum Streets had become undesirable because of the un- expected increase and travel on Asylum Street. lts sale provided more than one- third of the fund spent in the purchase of land and the erection of the new home for the school. The location fixed upon was remote from the business center, upon the hill,', and there in 1869 on the present high school lot was erected a building which the city fathers proudly described as usightly in location, pure in atmosphere, neat and honest in its construction? The building, with the 1877 addition and all its contents, was destroyed by fire on January 24, 1882. Within less than a week the school was again opened in temporary quarters in the Batterson Block alt the corner of Asylum and High Streets. A building replacing the one burned was completed in 1883 and was on the site of, and as much as possible like, the one destroyed. It is interesting to compare with the Hopkins Street building of today the picture of the original Hopkins Street building after the addition had been made to it in 1877. Noticeable in such a comparison is the similarity of the two buildings as well as the ingenuity with which the original architect, Mr. George Kellar, cleverly added a north wing in 1897. In 1893 the town, foreseeing the need of additional units, had purchased all the land fronting on Hopkins Street and a frontage of three hundred feet on Asylum Street, and in 1901 purchased land on Broad Street, thus completing the block bounded by Hopkins Street, Broad Street, Asylum Street, and Farmington Avenue. The manual training unit had been added at the time of the construction of fthe North wing. ln 1914 the center and south sections of the Broad Street building arose, and four years later the north section was completed, the whole resulting in the Hartford Public High School Building of today. 20 UCIDID db flfllfilmli UGDMD MUSIC AT HARTFORD PUBLIC HIGH 1838-1938 pam! fp? 5 this year marks the three hundredth anniversary of Hartford Public if-M 158 High School, it also marks the one hundredth anniversary of the ilfafi Nowhere in the work of this school have greater advances been made ti -A -:fu ..f r, T lie bfwh . . . lil beginning of music teaching in the public schools of America. 0' 5' ar . ,ni-,IKJ in the last hundred years than in the attitude toward music. Before lVIr. Ralph Baldwin came to Hartford High, music had a very small part in the school curriculum. Music instruction was given in the high school only one day a week. Chorus singing was conducted, taken only by those students who elected it. At this time the only music in the high school was this weekly chorus rehearsal, and the singing of hymns at devotions. The reason for such little interest in music is thus explained. All the high schools at this time were chiefly college preparatory institutions. There were few elective courses, for most of the study was very closely prescribed. The time for the training of students for citizenship had not yet arrived. There was little interest in the courses in manual training, domestic science, and business, likewise little attention was given to the arts. When Mr. Baldwin came to Hartford High in 1904, his first duty was to organize a choir for practice in singing. The students met in Room 36 during their free periods, and no credit for the study was given as yet. As a result of the choir's meeting during free periods, Mr. Baldwin often found a rather unbalanced chorus. In one period he might have twenty sopranos, three altos, one tenor, and six basses, while the next period there would be a majority of male voices with only a few Sopranos and altos. The only music for high schools at that time was that found in hymnals. It was necessary for Mr. Baldwin to start teaching fundamentals of music and create reading ability and music appreciation for, although there were many good voices, there was no reading ability among the students, nor any knowledge what- soever of the fundamentals of music. In the fall of 1905, the first boys' and girls, glee clubs were organized. The following March they gave their first public concert. This concert was followed by the first choir concert in May. Both of these performances took place in the Hopkins Street hall, the members being seated on the stage. Hartford stimulated much interest in the building up of choral music in high schools when the custom of oratorio concerts was started in April, 1906. The chorus delivered The Creation by Haydn. Clement C. Hyde's appointment as principal of Hartford High greatly in- fluenced the understanding and appreciation of music. lt was in 1912 that chorus practice once a week was required of all freshmen, and that a two-years, course in harmony and a two-years' course in music appreciation for members of the upper classes were introduced. This year also marked the first time in the history of this school that credit toward graduation was given for these music courses and activities. 23 UGDIDCTFD UMU5 UUDMD It was not until 1915 that an orchestra was organized in Hartford High School. Since 1916 this senior orchestra has been giving annual public concerts. Under the supervision of James D. Price, a junior orchestra was started to take care of the increasing number of instrumentalists. Gradually the school procured instruments of more unusual kind. In 1927 lVlr. Price organized the Hartford Inter-High Orchestra, selecting for it the best players from the orchestras of the three schools. This symphony orchestra has offered superior opportunities to the more talented instrumentalists. Having given concerts to high school assemblies and participated in joint choir concerts, it has often engaged in state contests, frequently winning first honors. In 1919, after much deliberation, Hartford High adopted a system of credit, giving credit to students studying under private teachers. The work of the students is supervised by a graded course of study and examined semi-annually by an outside authoritative examiner. This system has been of direct advantage to the students. A junior glee club of about fifty voices selected from the freshman class was started in 1918. This club has been particularly valuable in training the freshmen for membership in the upper class glee clubs and another organization which rep- resents the ultimate in our school's vocal music, the A Cappella Choir. The Inter-High A Cappella Choir was organized in 1931, for the purpose of deepening the artistic appreciation of the student leaders. It is an eight-part chorus, consisting of seventy-three voices. The members are tested and selected on the following five points: vocal ability, reading ability, high scholarship, high intelligence rating, a sensitive and intelligent appreciation of art. The A Cappella Choir has given about eight performances each school year, including a Christmas recital in each of the three senior high schools, an annual invitation recital in the spring, frequent broadcasts, and an occasional appearance at educational and other events in the city. The works selected for study and for these performances are taken from the sixteenth century music of the Catholic Church, the madrigals and ballads of the Elizabethan period, the liturgy of the Russian Church, folksong material from many lands, and from the classical and modern field of A Cappella music. Although there has been much cultural enrichment secured from the singing of this wonderful music, it has been the personality of Mr. Baldwin that has inspired the members of the A Cappella Choir to do the unusual, and almost miraculous, work which it has. Feeling the true emotional appeal of the music in his very soul, lVlr. Baldwin has transmitted that appeal to the members of the choir. When the A Cappella Choir sings, the music is coming right from the soul-the soul of Mr. Baldwin and every member of the chorus. ln 1937 a special choir was started for those of the three upper classes who were not members of the upper class choir. The singing in this choir is conducted purely for the pleasure and profit of the members. No trials are required for this group. Music instruction is being made available to many pupils. ln 1738 no music of any kind was taught in Hartford High, in 1938 there are sixteen musical activities and courses. 24 TWTTT G I A 'T' T' i I662 THE .SCHOOL DURNED AND ONLY A I IH .

UGDECTD Uflllllfllg 116191565 Class ight Clmairmarfs Address Parents, Teachers, F fiends: At last the day has arrived when we, the Class of 1938, stand in our turn at the portal of new experience, greater achievement, and larger responsibility. This time is significant to us not merely as an end, but as a beginning, not as a loss, but as an evaluation of our gains. This is why it is an added pleasure to welcome you to our class night exercises in which we summarize our high school days and roll back the curtain upon our various experiences. This evening we pay tribute to our parents, whose toil in our behalfs has given more purpose to our efforts, to our friends, the faculty, who have patiently given four years of their lives to our instruction and guidance, to our chums, who have made schooldays happier just because they are chumsg and to those classmates of ours who are perhaps little known because they carried great hardships silently. Next Monday we shall stand together for the last time and receive our diplomas. From the stage of the Bushnell Memorial Hall we shall disperse to towering cities or to quiet towns, each of us to take up the next phase of his journey individually in school, factory, or business. We'll miss old H. P. H. S. with its ineradicable memories. We'll often think of Hartford High and wonder what our classmates are doing. But at present we understand that graduation is only the severing of a physical cord, and that each of us takes with him understanding enough and determination sufficient to maintain the highest standards and ambitions of our class, for we realize that the Class of 1938 has never been any better than its ideals. Within this fact lies another. The future success of our class will be measured in terms of what each of us individually will do and become. We cannot dodge this fact. As a class we do have standards. As a class we do have a future. Each one of us now holds in his hands the respon- sibility of realizing that success through his individual actions after next Monday. Thus as our memories take us back over the da s when we entered as bewildered v Y freshmen found ourselves awakening so homores budding 'uniors and accom- 7 D 7 U J 7 plished seniors, we extend to you a cordial and sincere welcome to the 1938 class night exercises. GEORGE W. LA FLASH. 190 were Umm mme Class Qration THE CHALLENGE OF THE FRONTIER S civilization advances, there are created new frontiers which press 'f at 7 may forward and constantly expand. In the time of the early pioneers, these frontiers were mostly of a geographical nature. New conti- nents were being discovered and explored. The pioneers, meeting the challenge of ever-present danger in the attacks of savages and 'Li the depredations of wild animals, pressed on. Very often they were cut off from the outside world for months at a time. At such times, when no help could be expected, their very life depended on their courage and resourcefulness. Of all existing frontiers, none was ever so popular as the lure of new lands and new people. That it still exists is strongly evidenced by the large number of expeditions which set out each year bound for little known, far-distant places. There are constantly recurring rumors of uncharted isles as yet unseen by civilized eyes. The geographical frontier is far from dead. Science sends forth an unceasing challenge on another kind of frontier. Over fifty years ago one young man faced it unflinchingly. In most respects he was an average young man. But in one particular he was outstanding. He believed in himself and his ideas, and he stuck to his purpose even though it made him the laughing stock of his associates. His confidence and determination made him famous in many widely separated scientific fields. This man was Thomas A. Edison. His numerous well-known accomplishments and inventions, once considered as luxuries, have become the necessities of today. We should certainly hate to lose the incandescent light, only one of his gifts, and go back to the kerosene or candle for illumination. ln the realm of medicine likewise countless advances are being made. Man has always sought explanations and reasons for natural mysteries. Where his health is concerned he is especially active. In ancient times, diseases were thought to be visitations of displeased gods or devils and the only treatment was to appease or frighten them away. lt was not until the invention of the microscope that these notions were entirely dispelled. Much of the credit for this goes to Louis Pasteur, who discovered the principle of inoculation, and found many germs which caused diseases. Because of him and those like him, several diseases today have been practically conquered. These men, who were engaged in medical research, are pioneers as surely as were our early settlers. Working with deadly germs, rays, and 191 Mlbbdb UMUTJE UUDIDGVJ solutions, the modern white-gowned pioneer takes his life in his hands each time he seeks the cause and cure of a stiff baffling ailment. Many like Madame Curie, the discoverer of radium, have finally fallen victims of their own discoveries. These people, who felt the lure and met the challenge of the medical frontier, are the benefactors of the race. Another frontier exists in our modern social problem. For years under- privileged people have been living in the slums of large cities, on poor farm lands, and in southern hill country. Poor and ignorant, these people have lived lives which are one long hard struggle for existence. In the rural sections it has been especially severe. With no schools, churches, hospitals, or public relief agencies, their lives have been very miserable. Uneducated, they could not make use of modern farming methods and so were at the mercy of the seasons. In bad years, if actual famines did not exist, they were so undernourished that many died of pellagra and other diseases. Gradually, people have become interested in the problem. One of the most notable of these persons is Martha Berry who, following the Civil War, became interested in the Georgia hill folk living around her. She has devoted her life and wealth to them. Her efforts in education have been so successful that President Coolidge said to her, 4'Because of you, thousands have been released from the bond- age of ignorance and countless other thousands in generations to come will walk not in darkness but in light. At present the movement to aid these people is wide- spread and still increasing. Much still remains to be done. To say that these challenges exist is not enough. We must have faith and determination, courage, and perseverance. And especially we, the three hundredth graduating class of our school, should accept the challenge as have our predecessors. They can now be found in important positions in many different fields because upon graduating from Hartford Public High School they accepted and faced the challenge of the frontier. HENRY J. ELYOSIUS. 192 Z- fr . gi- if ,., E 135 UGDID db UQWUQWD UUDME Class ssay DIVINE DISCONTENT bb A' ROM the first lively days of liahyhood to the last wavering days of g Q old age, lllilll is moved forward through life by the spirit of discon- tcnt. A lmalmy reaches forth its hand to catch the gay, fluttering 60' oliject and unknowingly crushes the filmy butterfly. Then, half- ql 'Fig dead, the lrutterfly falls to the ground, as the hahyis attention is focused upon the orange lmreast of an oriole. These petty discontents of hahyhood increase in importance as age widens Ill3IliS knowledge of the world until at maturity his life is made up of many dissatisfactions, some still petty, hut many vital! to himself or to the world. This very discontent, which can he the greatest of hlessings or the worst of evils, arouses in 1na11 a feverish restlessness to accomplish 11ew things or to escape the engulfing reality of his personal existence. For a large proportion of humanity this discontent is lessened somewhat hy an escape to literature. Heading is one way to alleviate discontent by sympathizing with the struggles of the characters, but as we usually end by sympathizing with ourselves the escape is short-lived. It is, of course, a matter of character. Some people are discontented, but will do nothing more than complain. Others will act, perhaps constructively, perhaps destructively. Discontent is worthy only when it comes to a constructive end. The spirit of discontent founded and organized this very democracy in which we live, yet also established the dictatorships which are spreading across foreign continents. Lowly men and women have struggled to better the social conditions which surrounded them, while other individuals have become criminals to acquire the necessary sustenance. When narrowed down to individuals, everything we do as a result of dissatisfaction affects someone else as well as ourselves. We must have discontent for progress in any day or age. Without it life would become an endless passage of monotonous events, and imagination would be dead- ened. But if we are to advance rather than retreat, we must think constructively. God's discontent in man's state of living led Him to sacrifice His own son for the sake of mankind. This is the greatest example of divine discontent. Man has brought himself to a high point in civilization through his constant dissatisfaction in out-moded methods. All modern conveniences, democratic govern- ments, and social reforms are 1-1 result of constructive discontent-divine discontent! divine in its inspiration, in its accomplishment, in its aftermath. Discontent is a divine gift, to be used divinely. MARY A. CARUTH. 193 '53 CLRSS SONG mums RNS vmsv. B1 Vwmmti NAXLEQR '?'Qrrftlr:sX.L,ze-Y VME Nkmv-nav wexx NAS wus qw. me-.Y asm sv WGN?

Leo Biedrzycki has just arrived from Florida. He is now a life guard on Bruno Madrak's beach. Charles-He seems to be doing all right-and here's some interesting news about Mary Boyce and HAP' Rollins. Mary is playing the title role in 'Something Simplen and HAP? is teaching psychology at Wesleyan, his alma mater. Here they come now. Greetings, Cornratsf Mary and Alfred-Hello, everybody. Charles-I see by the papers that life has been treating you two okay, and Mary Caruth also. Mary is editing the sensational picture magazine, '4Life, Love and Liberty , the greatest all-literature publication now selling for a dime. Mary-l came i11 from New York with Joyce Pratt and uGil,' Tarkany. They flew in from the coast where they have just finished their newest picture, uLove on the Foof, All the art scenes were creations of Wilbur George and Carmela Clapis, who also designed the costumes. Hasnlt uGil'i become a handsome man-about-town since he lost that tooth in the Norwich game? Alfred-Yes, did you see their last picture? It was perfect. Say, do you remember when 'gRay77 Bradley worked so hard on the amplifying system? Marion-Why, yes, l have often wondered if it still works? Alfred-From the last reports, it is still going strong. 'cRay now heads the Social Activities Committee of the Hotel Bond. Here comes 'LChuck', Herberger. I'll bet he needs a vacation. You know, he's practicing law now, and if you ask me, he needs practice. Heas made some progress though. His last three clients got off with life. Chuck-Hello, Russians. Have you business for me? Marion-Yes, Lawyer Herberger. Let's read that Will which we have been waiting a decade to hear. fReacls Willl WILL OF THE CLASS OF '38 QTO be read on the tenth anniversary of the graduation of said classj We, the undersigned, do establish and ordain, This Will and last testament in language non profane, To express each wish and divide each ducat, Of '38, who kicked the bucket. Here our doleful chant begins, No jccring now, no brazen grins! We leave Ed Kondrack's biceps then, To next yearis giddy, green freshmen. nSkeeziX Kiczukfs fire red jacket, To Smokey7' Kurko's fireman racket. Laura Clarkis taps to 'LErnie', Carpino, For his ballet dancing at the French Casino. 196 ttdubdb Utltttlmp We let George LaFlash7s poetry fall, To some blind Beluchistan who canit read at all. We'd like to leave something to Leo Biedrzycki, But only Bieclrzycki will rhyme with Biedrzycki. We leave the old Owlels that weave kept around, To the Salvation Army at ten cents a pound. The thirty-five suits of ulisquiren John Harris, To a big nudist colony outside of Paris For bigger-time loafing of Hartford High gents, We leave to the Ritz one dozen pup tents. Jack Sanfordls big pack of I. O. Ufs, To the national debt before creditors lose. Ten cords of wood, all hickory sticks, UQDME the bricks logs. To the Hartford High termites, who are down to To Vasti Peterson, diving togs, To do the uDeep Sea Doodlei' on water-soaked To Roosevelt's brain trust we leave with delight, The problem of making class elections go right. To the school dietician with her plans for cakes, We leave a physician to cure stomach aches. To football heroes who in mud have kneeled, The unachieved athletic field. To the Freshman class, the job to groom The pussy-cat in the boiler room. To future students we leave as a goal, A bigger and better honor roll. As a model to boys not to be shirkers, The WPA.,s industrious workers. We leave uBob Dupuis, nifty uswing high, To would be big-applers, and need you ask why? To American Tobacco, the job to wipe The soot off the bowl of 4'Art Ristow's pipe. Vlle leave Ragnar Peterson the best thing of all, A soft-cushioned seat behind the eight ball. Thus weive divided all that we had, The useful, the useless, the good and the bad. And, hereby, we close with dignified seal, The most popular will since the time of repeal And Woe to the person who claims us insane, At the time we carefully signed here our name. fSignedJ THE CLASS or 1938 Any reference to persons living or dead is purely incidental. 197 UGDID db UQJHEIUE UGDTDGD Mary-That's a will, that is a Will! And to think we waited ten years for such poetry. Charles-Well, letls forget the past now and consider the present and the future. l rode in with Alice Carroll, who has just returned from her studies abroad and is now teaching at Loomis, and Estelle Breen, who has taken time out from her two worthy organizations, A Woman for Presidentn and Women for Every Public Officev, to attend our reunion. Chucks-l guess she is kept hard at work defending all her interests. I received a letter from 'sVinnie Rogers yesterday. He won't be able to attend because of the Tea Cup Tennis Tournament. Heis competing with Martin Aroian and Bill Trifiro. Sylvia Hansling coached them. That will make four absentees from our celebration. Mary-That's too bad. lt would be nice to see them again, but Charles and Walter Peszko will be here. They docked yesterday from the Olympic Games after winning two first places for the good old U. S. A. Alfred?-Those two have made quite a name for themselves. So has George LaFlash here at H. P. H. S. He founded a LaFlash Debating Society and has provided for a LaFlash Debating Prize along with it fvery flashy, so lim toldl. Nellie-He always was a generous soul. Do you remember the Tercentenary Pageant when Olivia Elam was prolocutor? She has opened a school of elocution for girls who are bitten with the Hollywood bug. Charles+She was certainly a star in the pageant. And you know about Evelyn Vernick, who designed the Tercentenary stickers? She has started a Paint and Chess Clubv over Stuart Royls now radio station. And guess whom I heard over it the other day? None other than Margaret Boardman. Her subject was, The Plight of the Farmer. Chuck-Evelyn always did excel in art. She did great work on our Class Book, too. But remember Pauline Levesque, our valedictorian? Someone told me she had opened a French Correspondence Bureau in Hartford. Marion-Yes, she has, and it is a success. Our three musketeers, Ann Kiczuk, Agnes Kaminsky, and Viola Tofil are making the sport pages these days. They play on a professional soft-ball team and haven't lost a game in three seasons. Do you remember when they played at school? Nellie-I do. Wasn't it their junior and senior years when they were the champions? Mary-Yes-and those same years our class also held the championship in basketball. Chuck-We certainly had plenty of celebrated girls in the class of '38, but let's 198 UGDID db UEHIUUIQ UGDMD get back to the boys. Lennie Swedbergis job is quite the thing. He is taking care of the roof garden on one of H. P. H. Sfs new skyscrapers, where ,lack Williams is running the elevator for the students. Charles-What is going to become of this generation? How eagerly I looked forward to each school day and the opportunities it offered me to scurry up and down the wide, well-lighted, rubber-treaded stairways of the historic Hopkins Street Building. So now there are only elevators! Too bad, too bad! Alfred-Never mind, 4'Chuck,', let us not judge these youngsters too harshly. They may turn out well in spite of all that is done for them. We did. And your speaking of success reminds me that Pauline Bell is Arthur lVlurray,s demonstrator for his latest dance creations. Nellie-And did you hear of Olive Boucheris reversal of form in Chemistry? She is now head of the Chemistry Laboratory in the new science building at Hartford High-with Marion Bowie as her chief assistant. Clzarlesfwell, here are two that aren't teaching, John McMahon and Ed Kondrack. They are petty officers on the flagship Foo-Ritz-iana. Mary-Petty officers did you say? CI always thought they never would come to a good end.l Chuck-Ah, but Helen Griffith has the job all girls would like. And she is doing well at it, too. I know, for l patronized her Female Escort Bureau. I barely escaped with my pocketbook. Marion-I have some more teachers to add to our list. They are Virginia Culver and Rita Bliss, who are in San Francisco's Chinatown teaching Greek and Sociology. Alfred-Donit forget to include Mary Sinnott, who is over at Bulkeley instruct- ing the Latin Scholars, and Gladys Wohlgemuth, who is teaching the Gym classes. Charles-With a few more teachers we could open our own school. Mary-When I telephoned to Hartford the other day, I was surprised to find that Cornelia Quist was the operator. As usual I got the wrong number. We had a nice long talk on the company's time, and she said that Henry Rothauser is now head of the Hartford Times Circulation Department. Marion-I picked up a copy of the Times and read an article about Irving von Pahl. It said that he has traveled 63,792 miles in the last two months. Chuck-I guess he didn't follow his vocation. I thought he would probably be a fire-eater in the circus. Nellie-He should be either that or a sword swallower, judging by his perform- ance on Senior Night. Mary-Has anyone seen Doris Jones lately? 199 JM. UGDIDGD C UMUE UGDMD Charles-According to the latest reports, she is teaching the girls at Smith the fine art of smiling. It is a well-chosen profession, dorft you think? Chuck-Mm-I think so. Say, there is Peter Marchak just -stepping off the train. He made a quick trip from Afghanistan, where he is psychoanalyzing Betty Wilsonas costumes for a Tercentenary pageant out there. - Nellie-Thatis rather far away. Betty wonlt be able to come to our reunion, will she? Marion-No, but ,lean Lawson and Evelyn Leahey will. They have founded a cemetery in England for Youth Hostelers who fall by the wayside. Mary-What an original way to make a living! And did you read about Doris Hunteris winning five radio contests sponsored by Dominic Murphy, Bob Chesney, and Angelo DeStephano? There is a catch though-she is their secretary. Alfred-Thatis very good, but hereis an interesting item for you. Louise Letourneau is keeping herself busy feeding Tercentenary Pageant programs to the bookworms. Nellie-What a novelty, but I know a couple that are better. Paul Worobel, the N. Y. U. basketball coach, has his men play with a bounceless ball, and uBobby ,lonesn McGurkin has invented a rubber golf stick with which he demonstrates the way to get uout of the roughf, , Alfred-I believe you have me beaten. You all remember Irma Wederstrom? She has the ideal job. She is the housewife in Macy's Model Home. Chuck-She is well suited for that sort of work. Harry HLittle', Cleveland has a nice job, too. He has replaced Horace Heidt on the roof-garden of the Biltless Hotel, and Isobel London is his vocalist. Marion-Harry is also playing on Myron Whiteis radio program. Myron runs a storyitelling hour for the Krazy Dog Food Company. Nellie-I was listening to that program last week when they interrupted it for a news flash about one of our classmates, Mary ,lane Farrell. She is going to marry a count and Eleanor Dickson is decorating their castle by the side of the road. Charles-ltis good to know how well our classmates are faring. Has any one more to say? If he has, let him speak now or forever hold his peace. , Aljred-I think we've said enough. Besides, we must hurry if we want to get ai good meal at the new H. P. H. S. lunchroom. I have heard that the meals are so tasty that even the West Hartford pupils crash the cafeteria to get the fifteen-cent special dinner. Charles-Oh, let's hurry then. The memory of the tasty meals and balanced diets of my high school days comes back to me. So let us get abroad Henry Elyosius's specially built rocket ship and be off-off to our beloved alma mater and Its skyscrapers, elevators, swimming pools, and model athletic fields. fEX6LlflLl.J 200 UCIDB db UWUE5 UQDTJGU VIOVXBS BY CREME MYR QLRYXS '38 H.

A Hartford High student can almost always find a club dealing with Q97 'W a subject in which he is interested and about which he is anxious gijfw to learn more. camo For those who study a foreign language, there are the language clubs-German, French, Greek, Italian, and the newly-organized Latin Club. There is also the Katherine Burbank Literary Club for girls who eXcel in English. There are the debating groups, the Athena for girls and the Hopkins Debating Club and the H. P. H. S. Debating Club for boys who enjoy debating. Each year the annual Batterson Debate between the Hopkins and H. P. H. S. clubs, for which individual prizes of ten and five dollars are offered, is a high spot of the school calendar. There are hobby clubs: the Girls Leaders Corps, the Camera Club, Crafts Club, Dramatic Club, and Sketch Club. There are clubs connected with studies: the Commercial, Biology, Chemistry, Astronomy, History-Civics, World Problems, Tech, and Physics Laboratory clubs. Hartford High has perhaps one of the best music courses in the country, and it also has musical organizations beyond compare. There are in our own school the Girls and Boys Glee Clubs, the Junior and Senior Orchestra. The Inter-High A Cappella Choir and the Inter-High Orchestra, which represent the best in musical accomplishment in the city, bring together the best vocal and instrumental ability in the three Hartford high schools. The Girls League is the largest club in the school, and the Boys Club is the largest boys' organization at H. P. H. S. Each year these clubs present to the pupils of the school a well-balanced and interesting program, both inspirational and social. The Owlet, our weekly newspaper, the Chronicle, our monthly magazine, and the Class Book, the yearly annual of the senior class, provide those journalistically inclined with a chance to use their talents. Clubs provide the students of Hartford High an opportunity to get a background for school work, to advance in a hobby, and, perhaps most important, to meet and know other pupils interested in the same things in which they are interested. 205 DUDE db iiijfiiilig UGDIDGD .Fic -jfxa HE social calendar at H. P. H. S. is being constantly enlarged and improved. The Class of 1938 has had the honor of instituting egypt the annual H. P. H. S. Junior Promenade which is now given each year in January or February. The Students Council now has a 2.5-335934. social committee, whose duty it is to plan every all-school social affair. Senior Night, of course, was looked forward to for three years, and lived up to expectations. Though the Senior Reception is the high spot in the careers of members of the Class of 1938, Senior Night filled a big part in our memories. The Annual Dramatic Club play, Bah, was well attended and well received. The Students Council Rally Dance, before the H. P. H. S.-Bulkeley game and the Sport Dance in March filled gaps in the social calendar. Y The two Girls League and Boys Club dances were the talk of the year. The Girls League-Boys Club matinee dances, although few this year, were well attended. CLASSES ARTFORD High offers a curriculum which is ever expanding.

Two periods of gymnasium training each week are required of each student, and club activities are carried on after two o'clock. 207 z P pw w ' x.

Aided by two of the countryls best high school coaches, cflolninyl' Newell and ul.arry Amann, the teams at H. P. H. have been noted consistently for their fairness in competition j f , and pluck in play. Although during our four years here we never saw one of Lflohnnylsw elevens beat New Britain High, we did witness some brilliant playing during the feature football games. Back in 1934 and l935, the attendance at Hartford High basketball games was notably small. However, during our junior and senior years the student body seemed to awaken to the fact that the Blue and Wlhite could, and did, play good basketball. As for swimming, well, the record may be found in this section. It speaks brilliantly for itself. Under the capable leadership of Coach MJimmy Woodwiorth, some fine base- ball teams have taken the field. Several future 'gbig-leaguersw have worn the colors of Hartford High, boys who undoubtedly will bring reflected glory on the school in the years to come. lVlinor sports have definite future prospects at H. P. H. S. HLarry's7' cross- country and track teams are the best trained squads that one might hope to see. Golf seems to be winning tl1e support of high school students all over the country. It has been reinstated this year as a competitive sport here. Tennis, always a popular outdoor sport, is the kind of athletic competition which emphasizes the enjoyment that Hartford High's athletes may find iI1 individual work. Our tennis teams have been consistently successful, this year winning the State Championship. Many of Miss Dotyis girls have done much to advance the renown of athletic competition. A large number of sports are open to intramural competition, provid- ing hours of enjoyment and exercise. These build an appreciation for recreational opportunities. For a view of the recent happenings ill all the aforementioned athletics, you are invited to turn the page. 215 ,. -W -W T l u Udnbdb llQDfDCla5 FOOTBALL In 1937 undoubtedly the most popular sport to watch and engage in at Hartford High was football. It was greeted with a new spirit of enthusiasm by players and spectators alike. A comparatively inexperienced team at the outset of the season, Coach Newellis squad improved with time and earned a reputation of ufightingi' until the last whistle blew, finishing competition with a record of four games won, two games tied, and two games lost. A very respectable showing, we should say.

'4Brud'7 Foley, a sophomore, was at the second sack while Hloev Bruno and cflohnnyw Ferguson, juniors, were holding down third base and shortstop, respectively. The third man in the outfield was l'Ebbiew Shea, fleet-fooled junior. Aside from Meade, the mound corps was entirely made up of underclassmen, among them being Cordier, Bujak, Adamick, and Cannon. To catch for these fellows were two juniors, Frank Lombardi and uLennie', Cohen, co-captain-elect of the football team. The boys started things right by defeating LaSalette College, 6-4, and Kingswood Prep School, 4-3. Soon after, however, they dropped two close battles to Saint Thomas Seminary and New Britain High by scores of 5-3 and 8-7, respectively.

The wide variety of sports offered and the excellent leadership of the instructors, Miss Doty and Miss greatly increased the nunilqer of girls eiltering into these activities.

THE WORLD INFLUENCE OF HARTFORD HIGH M' OR three hundred years the Hartford Public High School has had 'u ,x --My - q an ever-increasing influence on the world, both through the commend- able accomplishments of her graduates, and through the very prin- ciples of progressive and democratic education for which she has always stood. The Hartford High School was one of the first schools in the country to offer, along with the traditional college course, a general course to fit students for a business or a domestic career. She also showed her progressive nature by early permitting girls entrance to the high school. ln these actions she was a leader in showing other schools in America the way to a better and more advanced educational system. Probably the greatest educational triumph that Hartford High can celebrate is the part she played in the early training and development of young Chinese boys of noble rank who later became instrumental in the founding of the Chinese Republic in 1913. In 1872, due to the planning of a Chinese civil official, Yung Wing, who had graduated from Yale University and knew the value of an American education, thirty carefully-picked Chinese boys of the nobility were sent to the United States, and thirty more were sent each year for three consecutive years. Hartford was selected as the center for the mission school, and the boys lived with various families throughout the city. ln 1881 all the Chinese students in America were recalled due to the hostility of the new vieeroy, as it was feared that the Chinese boys might inter- marry and become Christianized. However, of those who attended the Hartford Public High School, five had gone on and graduated from Yale University, while there were thirty boys still in attendance at the high school. One of the' college graduates died before he could accomplish much in Chinese affairs, but the other four held important positions under the republic and were influential in establish- ing educational centers in China. As the Hartford Public High School has had for three hundred 'years an in- fluence on the world and world affairs, it will continue to have such an influence in future generations. A school built on such firm foundations, a scho-ol which has grown so gloriously and given so much in knowledge and ideals to her pupils, will continue to live and be an unseen force in world events. OUR FAMOUS GRADUATES Due to the excellence of her teaching faculty, the Hartford Public High School has graduated many pupils who later became great educational leaders in America. 228 MDE Cb Hljtiltlgtp Uiblbdb The graduates of our school hold or have held positions from college presidencies to teachers in the grade school. One of the most outstanding educators that Hartford High has produced is Edward Gallaudet, of the Class of 1851. He was one of the three members of his family who initiated in America the education of the blind. He was also one of the presidents of Gallaudet College for the Deaf, and the first president of the Convention of American Educators of the Deaf. He was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor by the French Government. Another graduate of educational influence is William Sumner, of the Class of 1860, educator, economist, publicist, and social scientist. He organized the Depart- ment of Social Science at Yale University and his HFolkways,' and uScience and Societyw are considered today among the most important contributions yet made to social science. lt is also interesting to note that he was the originator of the phrase The Forgotten Manfy HThe Forgotten Man works and votesw-generally he prays- but his chief business in life is to pay. Another graduate to be remembered is Bernadotte Perrin, of the Class of 1865, who is famed for his translation of Plutarch's Livesf' Notable also is a Pulitzer Prize winner of 1935, Charles McLean Andrews, of the Class of 1880, the author of numerous histories. No account of educators would be complete without the mention of the famed and beloved William Lyon Phelps, of the Class of 1883. He was for forty-one years connected with the English Department of Yale University and has influenced the lives and works of hundreds of brilliant students through his understanding analysis of character and capabilities. Journalists also have their part in educating the world, and so we cannot pass without mention of Charles Hopkins Clark, of the Class of 1867, who is classed with Dana, Greeley, and Watterson. He was for twenty-one years editor of the Hartford Courant. It has been said that 'fthe Courant was Clark and Clark was the Courantf, Among the many graduates who have held local legislative positions, two have gone on to represent Connecticut in the national congress: E. Hart Fenn, of the Class of 1875, who was both representative and senator from Connecticut, and George P. McLean, of the Class of 1877, who was senator from Connecticut. Two of our graduates have had the honorable distinction of serving as governors of the state, Henry Roberts, of the Class of 1873, and George P. lVlcLean, of the Class of 1877. Eight graduates have become mayors of Hartford. We also have had four men who attained the positions of judges. These facts are a proof of the character building which the Hartford Public High School accomplishes and of the ideals and standards which she has fixed in the minds and hearts of her students. The school has also had one distinguished representative in each branch of the navy and army service: Robert Ogden Tyler, of the Class of 1849, major-general of the United States Army, and Harry S. Knapp, of the Class of 1874, Rear Admiral in the United States Navy. After his death Mr. Knapp was granted the rank of Vice-Admiral by a Special Act of Congress. Perhaps our most famed artistic creator is W. Brian Hooker, of the'Class of 1898, poet and dramatist. Through his translation of '4Cyrano de Bergerac he has 229 I l Udobdb Ullljfilflip UGDMTD given the American reading and play-going public many hours of enjoyment. Another artistic graduate whose influence upon the technique of the drama has been strong was William Gillette, of the Class of 1878. For sixty years he was a well- known figure on the American stage and author or adapter of eighteen of the plays in which he acted. His death in 1937 was a great loss to the world of dra.ma. Charles W. Stiles, of the Class of 1885, has been the only graduate who has become eminent in scientific research work, and he probably has had a greater influence upon human welfare than any other graduate. He is the author of many publications on medical Zoology and sanitation. Outside of medical circles he is known chiefly for his connection with the hookworm problem. A graduate promi- nent in foreiffn affairs was Malcolm Davis, of the Class of 1898, Drirector of the C! Geneva Research Center, 1925-1927, and a worker in Scandinavia and Russia. SOME ILLUSTRIOUS TEACHERS lt is only too evident that it is impossible in any way to mention all those graduates of the Hartford Public High School who have had an influence on the world, but it is only fitting that we should here pay tribute to the marvelous line of instructors in all branches of learning who have taught these renowned individuals since 1638 and have inspired in them since childhood the principles of service and loyalty. Joshua Giddings, Thomas Beecher, Samuel Capron, Joseph Hall, Charles Douglass, Edward Smiley, and Clement C. Hyde are all men with whose records members of the Hartford Public High School are well acquainted. To this list of principals may be added such teachers as Alfred Hitchcock, Mercy A. Brann, Samuel Alvord, and our present musical director, Ralph L. Baldwin, who through his labors with the music department and the choirs has brought much renown to the school. 230 X!
