We look back proudly and respectfully to the achievements of the past three hundred years, but we also look ahead with even greater enthusiasm and expectation. We shall strive to live up to the ideals of the past, and to attain even finer objectives in the future. Ours will be the opportunity and duty of accomplishing more wonderful and more beautiful attainments. The rich historic background of our school has influenced us immensely, but now we look ahead as a part of this glorious influence. We shall always be guided by our heritage, for now we feel ourselves a part of it. We sense more fully our fellowship with the graduates of the past three hundred years. As we graduate. we enter the great fraternity of the alumni of Hartford Public High School. -A 1 432 . Q4 , CTU W M9 09299 MR. LAWRENCE C. AMANN V- .

To you beloved members of the faculty, patient parents, and faithful friends, who have bften wondered how we spend our time at school, we will attempt to reveal some of our abilities, hopes, and accomplishments. It seems but a short time ago that a little fellow, the Class of 1939, was enrolled at Hartford Public High School. His bewildered looks and actions were a source of amusement for the upper classmen and his constant studying and obedience to rules a source of delight to the faculty. As a lower classman he met his first great responsibility when the great flood swept Hartford. But the days passed quickly and soon this poor abused freshman entered the sophomore class. Ah, how well does he remember that joyous day when he could strut up and down the corridors unperturbed by such remarks as 4'Hey, Freshievg how amusing as he recollects his sophistication and aloofness that prevailed even during the visit of President Roosevelt, but was finally shattered by the realization that he was soon to be a junior. For the first time the frivolous youth was beginning to think about the future. A swift change transformed his carefree attitude to one of meditation. The looks that he cast about were thoughtful and intelligent. Burt he is thankful that such were his actions because his part in the pageant, the climax in the celebration com- memorating the tercentenary of Hartford High, was indeed helpful. That occasion will live forever in his memory. It was an inspiration during his senior year. At last that strong desire to be a member of the stately senior class was realized. And here he sits with us tonight, a veteran of the flood, the hurricane, and the pageant, confident of the future. We guarantee that your confidence in an evening of joyous entertainment, as displayed by your presence in such numbers here tonight, will not be disappointed. I now take great pleasure in extending to you a most hearty welcome to the Class Night exercises of 1939. WALTER P. KOSAR. 187 amy N lj O78 Q 2 Q -CJ .. CLASS ORATIGN THE BEST DEFENSE is A Gooo OFFENSE '-fed HERE are two questions which are becoming of great importance to 'QEQ all Americans. ,lust how much possibility is there that America will . be attacked? And if there is such a possibility, how can the attack best be avoided? It is generally conceded that from a military point of view the United States is by far the strongest nation in the Western Hemisphere. Since this is true, it is extremely improbable that any nation or group of nations in either American continent will venture to attack us. A glance at the present situation would indicate that our chief concern is with Japan and Russia in the West, and. Germany and Italy in the East. The average citizen believes, and his reasoning is sound, that we have nothing to fear from these nations. The basis for the reasoning is that it would be next to impossible for them to wageia successful attack so far from the homeland and source of supplies. This is true, but if these same nations had territory in South America which could be used as an army and navy base, a successful attack upon America, although difficult, would nevertheless be quite possible. The logical conclusion is then, that these nations must be prevented from obtaining territory in South America or islands close to it. To accomplish this it is necessary that the United States possess an army and navy that commands the respect of the entire wlorld. We are, for the most part, a peace-loving people. We would rather settle our disputes through diplomacy and arbitration. When we realize that the sum of money required to build one battle- ship would pay for the construction of twelve schools like the Bulkeley High School, every one of us would prefer the schools. But unfortunately there are some human beings who because of selfishness or lack of intelligence think nothing of the means they take to secure an end. If diplomacy and arbitration are in their favor they will submit, but if they are not in their favor, military strength is resorted XO. In 1901 England and Germany blockaded some of the parts of Venezuela and threatened to seize Venezuelan territory. At the request of President Roosevelt, England submitted to arbitration, but Germany refused. An ultimatum was there- fore sent to Germany stating that if she did not leave within ten days, American ships would be sent to prevent her from seizing any property, It was only within the last twenty-four hours that Berlin backed down and arbitration was accepted. The reason was that at the time our navy wfas more than a match for Germany's and was near at hand in West Indian waters. Let us suppose that Spain still owned a few small islands in the Caribbean Sea. 188 T 4 3 . jfii, I 255 45.221 , '3. B' Would it not have been a good bargain for Germany and Italy to furnish the Rebels aid in the recent civil war and to receive these islands in return for their services? With the mother country helpless would it not have been possible for Germany and Italy merely to seize the islands? And yet, what could we have done about it if we had not had a fighting force which the invader knew he could not defeat? Germany, Italy, Japan, and Russia are far more powerful today than they were in 1901, and they are much less inclined to accept arbitration in settling their disputes. Therefore, our best policy will be to assume that the best defense is a good offense. We must have an army and navy that these countries know they cannot defeat with the geographical advantages in our favor. When Louisiana was foreign territory, Thomas Jefferson, the great isolationist and supporter of Democracy, said: Ulf Napoleon gets Louisiana, we must marry ourselves to the British Navyf, Jefferson's idea was, of course, that we should have access to the strongest navy in the world. The same thing is true today, except that we cannot rely entirely upon the assistance of England, but must be self-sufficient. I will not go so far as to say how large an army or navy we should maintain. That is an extremely technical question and one which can be long debated. But at any rate it must be large enough to successfully meet the attack of any probable group of nations which could be launched against the Western Hemisphere. This policy of preparedness will do much towards keeping us out of war. ,lust as it is always the best policy to save your strongest move till last, so in this case the threat of force must be used onlv as a last resort. Our first efforts should be through able and influential leaders. America was preserved just as much by the diplomacy of George Vilashington the President, as it was by the skillful maneuvering of George Washington the General. The number of wars that America has prevented and avoided by secretaries of state is many times greater than the number of wars we have won by generals and admirals. Today the world is troubled by racial and religious unrest, fanatical and selfish leaders, a lust for territory, mighty armies and navies, economic depression, hatred, fear, and uncertainty. Fortunately, in respect to these things, America is much better off than the rest of the world. To remain so and to improve our position we must have the resistance to ward off the toxins and diseases of the afflicted world, and at the same time we must have the wisdom and skill to help ourselves and relieve the plight of others. To accomplish this many things are necessary. But these are indispensable. We must have an army and navy that commands the respect of the world. This power must be used only for defensive purposes. America must take the respon- sibility of preventing the exploitation of South America by European and Asiatic countries. America must develop men who can match wits with those in other countries, men who have the wisdom and understanding to settle satisfactorily and peacefully the problems of the world. ' CHARLES W. DALY, JR. 189 , CLASS ESSAY IS THERE A PLACE EoR OPTIMISM? ODAY, we have reached the second milestone on the way of our formal education. Now we must set out on the road of life-on a journey that we must plan and live for ourselves. Our next step is decisive, it is too late to falter. Let us pause and consider before we make our decision: consider how optimistically we can look toward the future. First of all we ask, 4'What have we been taught? What philosophy of life have we learned? These questions are well answered by the motto which has been chosen by the members of our class: g'Each man is the architect of his own fortunefi These words have found great favor with us because they express con- cisely the philosophy which we have been taught, and which we have accepted. Wise men and women who have already braved the conflicts of the outside world have returned to tell us that out yonder talent, skill, and labor are recognized and reap their due rewards. Therefore, labor on, youth, if you desire to live a prosper- ous and happy lifef' Trusting in their experience, we unquestioningly accept their words of wisdom and go on to seek the reward of our talent and labor. Electric with ambition, we intend to overcome obstacles single-handed, so that, like the architects that we have become, we may lay a sound foundation for the mighty fortune that our diligence is to build. After a few years of battling with the world, what shall we discover? Forced to forget all our ideals we shall find that we are the unfortunate contemporaries of a great economic crisis. We did not all see the World War, but we see its ravages in the life of our own day. Within the memories of all is that terrible year of 1929. In that year we witnessed the entrance into our lives of want and need, two elements that youngsters had heard little of until then. They matured early, for upon them fell hardships of which their immediate predecessors knew little. They learned the meaning of Union, scab, sit-down strike and '4Red.7' How many began to take interest in such matters as the New Deal and its multi-lettered acts? How many of these would have taken such interest in national affairs a few years ago? 190 7 .'4. QEQ.22:Q - ' Following immediately upon the heels of the economic crises with their depres- sions and recessions came threats to our shortly enjoyed peace. Dictators, swastikas, fascists, and communists ruled the headlines. There was dominant in Europe a blind spirit of nationalism, fostered by men desiring deification. So attractive was the force of this spirit that even the expanse of the sea was unable to lessen its fascina- tion. Thus not only in Europe but also in America, it became necessary to fight for democratic ideals. Drastic changes were being made in the map of Europe. Some countries were disappearing and others growing. Nations were destroying themselves because of their inability to live in unity. Brother killed brother and thought little of it. He fought not because his neighbor was his enemy, but because he had been told to fight him. All they had built up in toiling together they now, in killing one another, destroyed. There was something wrong in the world, but the mass was indifferent. From the East one day last summer came another blow to the already upset world. Here was begun the cruelest war in present- day history, and, most ironical of all, an undeclared war. Theoretically there was peace, in reality bloody slaughter was in progress. Before we had grown quite used to the Eastern affairs, incidents both shocking and stupifying occurred in Europe. The force which was prominent in the Dark Ages, ages ruled by ignorance, was found in our civilized era. Racial intolerance, inspired by a single man, swept over an entire country in storm. The Jew, who had helped to build the land where he made his home, was driven forth because he was of the Hebrew race. The idealist and realist were treated alike. The formeris main desire was to be left alone to conceive something rarely beautiful or wonderfully helpful for humanity and the latter's to earn a living and better conditions for himself and his family. Yet both were branded as an impurity and exiled from their homes. Europe and Asia were teeming masses of humanity. All thinking persons were frightened, terrified by the new turn of events. ln America men were more at ease. Their only contact with affairs across the seas was in newspaper headlines where freedom of expression was focused predicting the downfall of America and all civilization. Here crimes of their fellow citizens were being unearthed. Con- fidence of one man in another was weakened. People of the country found very little to trust and believe in. These were the conditions that led to the state of the world today. What place have we in this world? What of the thousands like us who receive diplomas yearly? The majority become a part of the vast army of the unemployed. This army is all infantry and its march is a daily one through the city streets. How great are the chances of those who desire to further their education? We cannot believe him who tells us that every one of us can obtain a college degree. What of those whose help is needed at home, of those who, owing to poor health, are 191 get I 0 'HG ' 421 we ' not able to earn money during the academic year, of those who do not obtain scholarships? They are forced to drop by the way, to become disillusioned in the life which has refused them what they desire most. When the agile mind is forced to remain idle, it dwells on whatever comes its way. The youth who considers his own predicament, and is left to ponder over his sad state soon falls into neurosis. Nothing is sadder than that young person who has lost all interest and desire in life. Yet every one of us are exposed to this situation. We cannot fool ourselves. There are few positions open. This fact alone is responsible for so much idleness and the situation our youth is in. This is our place-an uncertain place in an uncertain world. What is there left for us to do? Fight against our system which has shown itself to be all wrong? This fight will be most difficult, for the enemy is most powerful yet invisible. Find the flaws by which we are ruled, waken to the imperfections! Deviate from the path of disinterest which the typical John Public has cut for us! We are the people of tomorrow. Let us face the future with clear thought and refuse to be blinded by suggestions of optimism which has no place in our world today except with the weak or indifferent.

Prosecuting Attorney-No further questions, Your Honor. Leroy Lawrence fbeginning cross-exarninationi-Do you remember the pageant? Witness No. 1-Yes. It was a great tribute to the three hundred years of success enjoyed by our school. Many from our class had prominent roles, especially Carmelina Beltrami and Monroe Farber as attendants to King Solomon, Eleanor Collins as Queen Elizabeth, and Joe Bellizzi and Phil Buckley as two of the students of the old Latin School. Then too there was Walter Delis representing the Manual Arts Department and Nell Presti the Girls? League. Defense Attorney-Thank you, Miss Surgenor. 17m sure that you could talk for hours on the pageant and of the great contribution of the members of the Class of 1939 to its success! And now, do you remember Ruthye Brooks? Witness No. 1-1 do. Ruthye Brooks began her musical career by directing Surprise Evening that year. l Defense Attorney-Do you remember the New Britain game? Witness No. 2-1 do. Sam Petrus almost bet with the whole New Britain team de- spite a score of 52-0 against us. Defense Attorney-Do you remember who was chosen the most valuable player on the football team? Witness No. 1-Yes. Bill McKone received the gold football at the Boys, Club Ban- quet as the most valuable player. V Defense Attorney-Your Honor, Ladies and Gentlemen. It is now evident that Mary Surgenor is a member of the Class of 1939. And now, Miss Surgenor, as to the validity of the Will-is it not true that the usual marking period tests were given during the time this Will was written and that the results were just as good as they had ever been? Witness No. 1-Yes. Defense Attorney-That is all, Miss Surgenor, thank you. 196 D El' .

Prosecuting Attorney-Your Honor, I should like to call as my second witness Miss Catherine Devine. fCa-therine Devine walks to the stand and the atmosphere is tense. Nervously sitting down, Miss Devine looks to Mr. Kerrigan who speaksj-Your full name? Witness No. 2-Catherine M. Devine. Prosecuting Attorney-Your address? Witness No. 2-21 Beach Street. Prosecuting Attorney-Did you see this Will immediately after it was written? Witness No. 2-I did. Prosecuting Attorney-Do you testify as to the logic of the Will at the time you read it? Witness No. 2-I do. Prosecuting Attorney-Can you name several members of your class who have made names for themselves since graduation fourteen years ago? Witness No. 2-Yes. HHerb Abrams, for example. He is now drawing designs for the 1960 World's Fair in New Britain. And then, of course, there's Anna Baltronis. She is selling patent medicines for making hair permanently curly. Paul Clark is postmaster general of Clarksville. Barbara Croke is still singing. Prosecuting Attorney-Well, these are fine examples. Can you name any more? Witness No. 2-Oh, incidentally, I had a letter from '4Ken Moore, editor of the W omanss Home Companion, who writes Cshe takes the letter out and readslz 4'Do you remember the good old days? I've seen some of the old gang lately. Remember Frances Epstein? She's modeling clothes at the 0'Hara 81 Feingold Clothing Store. Daniel Canter is affiliated with Life. And then, too, there's '4Chris,' Williams, who is giving vocal lessons at Oxford. I was strolling clown Main Street the other day and met Bob Stengelin. He seems to be doing pretty well. Hels with the Sure Dye Peroxide Company. Joe Matos is professor of Physics at Oberlin College. I hear that Morton Opinsky with his partner, Donald O'Brien, is selling chips off the Blarney Stone. Prosecuting Attorney-Do you distinctly remember when the Will was written? Witness No. 2-Yes. The Will was written about the middle of June, 1939. Prosecuting Attorney-What was the exact date? Witness No. 2-That I cannot answer. All that I can remember is that the Will was written under heavy mental strain. Prosecuting Attorney-What was the strain? Witness No. 2-At that time, members of the Class of 1939 were taking marking period exams and so the task of writing the Will became very tedious. Prosecuting Attorneyv-Miss Devine, did you ever have the pleasure of knowing Dominic Tusia? 197 , C70 9 U Q . -- ' Witness No. 2-Oh, yes! His poetry has led him to fame surpassing even that of his football record. Prosecuting Attorney-Who won the first prize for the best solo at Senior Night? Witness N o. 2- Dot fBaby Snooksj Conroy with her sneezes. Prosecuting Attorney-No further questions, Your Honor. Leroy Lawrence fbeginning cross-exarninationj-You told the prosecuting attorney of the strain under which the exams were written and, of course, his deduction was that the Will must be invalid. But, Miss Devine, I should like to ask of you the same question I asked of Miss Surgenor. Were or were not the results of those marking period tests as good as they always had been? Witness No. 2-Yes. Defense Attorney-And now, Miss Devine, as you are a well-informed person and capable of giving testimony, tell the Court what news of importance there was in the Times tonight. Witness No. 2- Local Boy Makes Goodf' Edu Shea is trying to start a revolution in Spain. F.d,' Stanton was elected chief of the Fire Department in North-to- Wanderville. Genevieve Slowik won the Olympic Swimming Title and will be honored by Mayor Kerrigan tonight at 8 oiclock.

He is a member of the A. F. of L., Local Division 675. Ray Condren applied for a position at Kinglake Cemetery. He was given a job supervising grave digging. Defense Attorney-Thank you, Miss Devine. And now tell me, did you by any chance happen to run across Bernard Flanagan on your way to the Court? Witness No. 2-I'm not sure. Some man handed me this envelope for you. He was wearing a green sports coat and a purple tie. Defense Attorney-He's the one. fTztrning to the fudgel Your Honor, this Flanagan fellow is an office boy for the Peterson Investigation Bureau. Pete was an old classmate of mine and I'm sure he first gained experience in examining people's private lives while editing the Owlet.

Thus far in the trial it has been established, despite the endeavor of the Prosecuting Attorney to prove otherwise, that the two witnesses are entirely capable of giving relevant evidence. Furthermore, the information they,ve given, with that from other sources, has clearly shown the quality of the people in the Class of 1939 and the type of Will they would write. Therefore, I call to the stand Miss Mary A. Kasperkiewicz to read that Will. fShe comes to the stand and is sworn in.J Defense Attorney-What is your full name? Witness No. 3-Mary A. Kasperkiewicz. Defense Attorney-Would you be so kind as to spell your last name? The reason I ask you to do so is in order that we might have an accurate account of all witnesses and testimonies given. Witness No. 3-Oh, yes, I understand. K as in Kissane, an outstanding speaker at the Batterson Debate, A as in Alling, the organizer of many Young People's organizations, S as in Sheehan, who is now running a dog hospital, P as in Poutre, who is with Florence Lambert, Superigntendent of nurses at Saint Francis Hospital, E as in Ebersold, a star endg R as in Rutstein, who thinks that breaking test tubes is part of a chemistry experiment, K as in Kullson, who never missed a day without a smileg I as in Iannetta, a girl with a very nice personalityg E as in Eileen Erickson, one of our quietestg W as in Waterman, the outstanding pianist of our class, I as in I canit think, C as is Cashman, now one of the dancing teachers at Arthur Murray'sg Z as in Zurowski, one of our best dressers. Defense Attorney-Are you prepared to read the Will? Witness No. 3-Yes, sir. But first it may be of interest to know that in coming to the Court, I met your law partner, Joe Castagno, who told me to tell you that 'floew Kennedy, the yes-man for Olympian John Bonee, had assured him that all of Bonee's financial problems, now that he has turned pro, would be placed in the hands of your law firm. Defense Attorney-Thank you, Miss Kasperkiewicz. But one more question before you read the Will. During the Court recess I was told that Murray Henry is 199 K 7 D C70 iligiii Q .- if arranging Mozart for Toscaniniis Swing Ensemble, that Sylvia Cramer is writing verses for birthday cards, and that Louise Quinn is giving jitterbug lessons to Henry Czajkowski. To the best of your knowledge, is this true? Witness No. 3-It is. And in addition aloe Quinn has the official position of haunting Vassar, while Barnicle Marcus Floyd has lately written to say that he is training Sea Scouts Thomas Long, Edu Caliskis, Stanley Lewis, and Joe Purcell. Defense Attorney-Thank you, Miss Kasperkiewicz. And now if it please the court, will you please read the Will? Witness No. 3- THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF 1939 WE, THE CLASS OF 1939, in order that the benefit of our wealth be not lost to posterity, do invoke this Last Will and Testament of our Class. And be it estab- lished that: all stipulations herein granted were done with due temperance and thought, and that the beneficiaries thereof shall not be deprived by restraint, legal or otherwise, of the valuables herein willed to our School, our Faculty, and other fortunate Individuals. TO OUR SCHOOL: We leave the amplifying system to the next class, hoping that assemblies will be more enjoyable. The Class of 1939 leaves all its demerits to the Class of 1940, hoping they will use them to the best of their advantage. Ken,' Ceckler leaves his spearmint gum behind the old picture for all those who wish to spend their spare moments in enjoyable flavor. Everett Hall leaves his golden locks to all the envious girls of 1940. ,lohn Barnicle leaves the book, SHOW to Play Hookey Without Getting Caught, to the library, to be withdrawn from circulation. Edna Welch, Annette Guertin, Lois Guilmart, Loretta Giller, and Margaret Young leave the yellow basket to the Class of 1940 for collecting pennies for the library. The Business Board leaves the ads it has left over to next year's class book. Anne Griswold, uRed7' Smith, and Virginia MacEwan leave their red hair to the office for Christmas decorations. Shirley Canfield leaves her colorful sweaters to the Dramatic Club to be used for scenery. We leave to the Emergency Room an adjoining room the size of Room 26, so there may be enough room for those who are sick. Cecelia McTiernan leaves her blush to the Girls' League, to be used instead of a spotlight at the next League dance. 200 gggqqgj -',M :-L AIA' :gg af 2 f . -1 -- f .Tiff .NJ -':'. TO THE FACULTY: To Mr. Smith we leave only our good will. He has been left enough things by preceding classes to last him the rest of his life. We leave to Miss Buggles more Latin pupils like Myrtis Engdahl. To Mr. Buckley we leave an assistant to help him watch the ups and downs of stairway traffic. We give and bequeath for their use and benefit absolutely the startling informa- tion we have given them at whatsoever times we may have had written quizzes and tests. TO OTHER FORTUNATE INDIVIDUALS: '4Bill Devine leaves his bruises from the football games to Guido Dinucci to be stored up for the New Britain game. 'flohnnyw Ferguson leaves his powerful oratory to James Eacott, IH. Matthew Fitt leaves all his Ais to '5Bill Mullady. Fred', Ray leaves in general.

Pauline Carpino and Elaine Sheridan leave their French marks to anyone taking Latin. The Class Book typists-Gladys Ohanian, Rose Huot, Bernice Bieluch, and Eugenia Bielecka-leave their diligent work as an example to next year's typists. aSteve7' Coffey leaves his backstroking ability to 'clerryw Autrey. William Budds leaves at last. Paul Jones leaves his Southern accent to anyone having a hard time acquiring one. Bernard Holleran leaves his seat. That's all. It was nailed down. John Donovan leaves to the Salvation Army three of his collarless and sleeveless shirts. The Class of 1939 leaves the school a little wiser than when it entered. We hereby constitute and appoint our principal, Mr. Quirk, sole executor of this, our Last Will and Testament. In Witness Whereof, we have hereunto set our hands and seals this sixteenth day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred thirty-nine. fSEAL5 MARY A. KASPERKIEWICZ LEROY P. LA WRENCE 201 I v 'sb i t ,V-. fe-. af SENIOR NIGHT It has been the custom for many years to set aside one night during our last year when the seniors alone can get together for an evening of entertainment. At this time, the so-called dramatists of the class produce skits and stunts. Prizes are awarded to the best performers. At our Senior Night, held on February 11, 1939, Leroy Lawrence acted in the capacity of Master of Ceremonies. Blase Sullo opened the program with a dramatic reading of '4Gunga Dhinf' It was with the special permission of the Proctor and Gamble Company, makers of '4Crisco,7' that we then presented 'gCrisco Brings Home the Bacon. The third scene was one in a local restaurant owned by Tony', DePapulas. Donn Tusia and 6'Chris Williams provided the audience with the entertainment which was hilarious. 4'Musical Football, a remedy for the usual bone-breaking game, was the next production. In this the coach was a cheerleader. The players cheered and sang themselves to victory. Jessie DePillo was next on the program and gave a breath-taking example of her ability as an acrobat. All attempted to follow her antics. Next, the absent-minded Professor, starring Bernie Swartz, gave a modern version of the ingenious instructor whose mind is wholly wrapped up in art. Our future radio star, Sybil Silverman, then sang the current popular ballad Hurry Horne. Soon the stage was cleared for a major event, Shakespeare,s greatest love story, Romeo and Juliet, written several centuries past, was presented in new and burlesque form. Dorothy Conroy, one of our best impersonators, next showed her excellent ability by impersonating Katharine Hepburn, sneezing Robert Hedlocks, Horatio T. Bummer, and Zasu Pitts. Then Lela Taylor, one of our graceful dancers, presented a ballet number, thus bringing a bit of classical into our modern jesting. A modern miracle of medical science was performed by five local famous surgeons and detectives in the skit Tight Squeeze. Those taking part were Anna Baltronis, Anna Kurylo, Pauline Carpino, Mary Burridge, Carmelia Beltrami, Mary Montano, and Nell Presti. But the greatest fun of the evening came when Milt Goodman, disguised as a beautiful lady, sang Nobody Makes a Pass at Me. The final act on the program, '4And the Lamp Went Out, was one that drew much applause when the drama and the stage ended in darkness. After the last skit, the three judges, Miss Marjorie Smith, Miss Ruth L. Spaulding, and Mr. Carleton C. Allen, announced the winning performance to be Romeo and Juliet while the best solo work was that of Dorothy Conroy. Both were presented boxes of candy by the Chairman, Thomas Kerrigan. The program came to a close with the dancing of the Virginia Reel in the gymnasium. 203 , VV.

ACTION PICTURE OF NEW BRITAIN GAME 212 W L7 at Q FOOTBALL With only two weeks, practice because of the hurricane, the 1938 team suffered a very poor season. Many players were injured, and Coach Newell was continually forced to rebuild the team. Several games were lost by very close scores, but winning form was exhibited several times throughout the season. The best contest of the season for Hartford was the Bridgeport Central High School game, which was won by H. P. H. S. by a score of 32 to 7. The poor season did not prevent Hartford from having its share of star per- formers. t'Bill McKone and Hess Holton were named All-State Fullback and Center, respectively. Both players were outstanding throughout the season. Other strong players were Sam Petrus, Art Heubner, HLenny', Cohn, Ed Shea, Bull Tusia, Ed Ebersold, HAI Pinsky, HBill,' Devine, 4'Mike Adamick, Bill Morano, and 'GM.oe,' Henry. A fine spirit of cooperation and willingness to fight for H. P. H. S. was shown by both the team and loyal student rooters throughout the season. SCHEDULE H. P. H.

BASKETBALL The basketball season, despite the fact that there was no winning streak to enlighten it, did succeed in regaining the enthusiastic school spirit which for several years has been sadly missing. The team was lacking in experience but was very aggressive and made very close contests of most of its games. The highlight of the season was the 40-35 defeat inflicted upon New Britain, a team ranked very high in the state scholastic circles. The outstanding players were Wozniak, Holton, Walsh, Adamick, Dudeez, Shettle, Carilli, Diaehenko, and Wise. Of these only Wozniak, Holton and Adamick are graduating. Thus, a successful season for 1940 can be fairly well assured. 214 07096209 H. P H. P H. P H. P H. P H. P H. P H. P. H. P. H. P. H. P. H.

INDOOR MEET TRACK With HJess Holton, '4Ken', Gagne, uBoh,' Dupuis, and '4Bill'7 MeKone, the re- turning lettermen from last yearis state championship team, as the nucleus of the team, the track team should again have a highly successful season. At the present writing, two meets have taken place, the Indoor Meet, in which the team took third place, and the State Relays, at which records were made by the mile and half-mile relay teams. This is a much better showing than was made by last year's team at this same time last season, and therefore our hopes for a successful season are high. RECORDS 100-yard Dash R. L.

BASEBALL Having had but a mediocre season in 1938, the Blue and White team was looking forward with great expectation to a brilliant season in 1939 with the return of nine lettermen. These hopes were quickly dampened by ineligibility and other circum- stances and as a result only three men return to form the nucleus of the team. The squad, however, looks very promising and under guidance of Captain Johnny Ferguson and Coach Woodworth should have a successful campaign, with Frank Lombardi, John Bujak, '4Joe Bruno, '4Tommy Long, and Captain John as the principal players. The only weak spot perceptible at this time is the lack of pitchers. John Bujak is a polished hurler, but the others are untried pitchers.

Sweeping the dual affairs with Bristol, Weaver, and Manchester, the team also won the Triangular League title, the State Meet, the State lnvitation Meet, and at the New England Interscholastics ran second in a huge field composed of the best scholastic talent in New England. Starting off with 19-36 victory over Bristol, the boys clipped Weaver 22-33, and then beat Manchester, last yearls New England Champions, by a score of 24-31. The Triangular League and State Meets were easy victories for the Hilltoppers. Morrow and Gagne, who ran 1. 2 in most of the meets, Lyons, Taylor, Lizak, 218 P33 I9 .-'. '. . 2.5 Beard, and Whitham were the scintillants of the most brilliant cross-country season in the school's history. SCHEDULE H. P. H. S. .... .... I 9 Bristol High School .... 36 H. P. H.

SWIMMING In November, Hartford High's swimming team took to the water with an impressive string of forty-four consecutive victories. Although there were six return- ing lettermen: ,lack Tyler, John Bonee, Vernon Thomas, Steve Coffey, Henry Czajkowski, and William Mullady, Coach Amann was anything but optimistic in the early weeks. Four months later, Larry7' had developed such young stars as Sanko, Bob Tyler, Tevald, Ziemba, Antonik, Autrey, Berczynski, and McLaughlin, and the team was lauded as one of the best in the history of Hartford High. Although it beat every scholastic rival decisively, the team dropped its first meet in 4-8 contests to the Yale Freshmen. The natators broke two state records, one national record, captured the State Relay Title, the Individual Medley Championship, and their fifth State Interscholastic Swimming Championship. SCHEDULE H.

The tennis team won the state championship last year, but most of the veterans have been graduated and a new team will have to be built. We hope that the team will have as much success as last yearis. The golf team is another uncertainty. Most of Mr. Kimball's stalwarts have graduated and again a new team has to be constructed. With the schedule that has been drawn up the boys are in for a hard task at every turn. GOLF SCHEDULE H. P. H. S. at Bulkeley High School. Manchester High School at H. P. H. S. H. P. H.

GIRLS' BASEBALL TEAM 221 D if '.-' 1 ', I '-.'.' 0 x 51 - - -f J ' L Aa .'.f. .f,L . .t V GIRLS' SPORTS Athletics have played an important part in the school life of the co-eds at Hartford High as well as in the lives of the boys. The Leaders' Corps has done much to further sports of all kinds. One of the novel ways of doing this was by having HPlay Days for neighboring high schools. These 6'Play Daysn consisted of friendly contests, singing, and a luncheon. Several of these were given by differ- ent schools and the response given to them assures a permanent place in the future of girls, athletics. Girls are taught how to play tennis, basketball, and baseball. They bowl, swim, l GIRLS' BASKETBALL TEAM and play various other games. Recently an archery club has been founded and this has gained popularity rapidly. Swimming, basketball, and softball are the most popular sports. Keen competition is afforded by the various class teams. Although much excitement is aroused, friendship is preserved at all costs. The tennis tournament is probably the most publicized sport in the girls, athletic program. Many competitors take active part in this tournament and the winners are awarded handsome trophies. 222 9 . fiesifn gf .- , - f': .'

D STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council of Hartford Public High School was founded to unite more closely the students and the faculty and through cooperation to promote the welfare of the school. From l.9l9 to 1938 the Council worked under the same constitution. The student accomplishments were relatively small and thus it was deemed advisable to revise the laws. Beginning in September, 1938, the body began to function with new life and in a manner never before tried at Hartford High. Every session room has at least one delegate sitting at the meetingsg senior rooms have two. Meetings are held every two weeks. Standing committees take care of different phases of the school life. The Council under the new constitution has accomplished much in the way of improvements. THE HONOR SOCIETY The Smiley Chapter of the National Honor Society was formed in 1924 by the members of the senior class who had been on the half-year honor list since entering school. The purpose of the Chapter is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to en- courage the development of character in pupils of Hartford Public High School. Membership in this Chapter is based on scholarship, service, leadership, and character. To be eligible for the elections, one must stand in scholarship in the first fourth of his respective class. 223 K Q T51-2 ' V a. . R. 5 f gjgzfjl. :Mfg I .-C ' ahxi '.f, I A v' SENIOR GLEE CLUBS The Senior Glee Clubs of Hantford High School were founded in 1904 by Mr. Ralph L. Baldwin who conducted them for many years. Forty girls and an equal number of boys chosen by test from the three upper classes make up the membership. The clubs meet once a week, at which time an attempt is made to study music from the vast library of proven choral works. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Athletic Association was organized in 1884. Membership in the Athletic Association is open to all pupils of the school upon the payment of annual dues. The athletic affairs are under the control of a council, consisting of three officers elected by the Association, three faculty members, and three alumni members. The principal is an ex-officio member of the entire council. The purpose of the council is to regulate and approve all athletic expenditures, supplies and awards of the school. GIRLS' LEAGUE At a mass meeting of the three upper classes of the girls, December 17, 1922, the Girls' League of Hartford High was founded. Open to all girls of the three upper classes, it has served a noble purpose. Yearly the members pledge at the installation of the officers whom they have elected to promote friendship, love, and goodness. FRESHIVIAN GIRLS, LEAGUE Supplementary to the Girls' League there was organized in 1937 to promote friendliness among the girls of the fourth class the Freshman Girls, League. Meet- ings are held six times a year, often taking the form of entertainment. The last meeting is a welcome party for girls from junior high schools who are to enter as thirds in the fall. 224 A i -.',A CHEMISTRY CLUB A decade ago there was no Chemistry Club in H. P. H. S. The interest shown, however, in practical experiments led to the formation of this organization. The clubis intentions of learning of the work in progress leads it to make trips to com- mercial laboratories and factories. BOYS, CLUB Founded in 1913, the Boys' Club has served its purpose in promoting clean living, clean speech, clean athletics, and good fellowship. For a year after its organization meetings were held at the Y. M. C. A. The Broad Street Lunchroom was the next meeting place chosen. Meetings are held here at this present day. The membership, open to all juniors and seniors, is now the largest in the club's history. The existence of the organization is looked upon as one of the greatest influences upon the fellows of Hartford High. FRESHMAN BOYS, CLUB To extend further the opportunity for participation, the Freshman Boys' Club was founded in 1934. This was the first club that fourths were allowed to join. It has meant much to freshmen in the forming of friends in a new and strange place. SOPHOMORE BOYS, CLUB The Sophomore Boys' Club was founded in 19311 as a branch of the Senior B0ys7 Club. It was organized in a spirit of fellowship by a group of boys who knew of the great necessity for it and who were determined to make a success of it. Through a gift of keen foresight, the founders realized that in tiI11e a club of this kind would be held in esteem by the students and that Sopliomores would take great interest in a club formed for their benefit. 225 .AA-A ' if HELLENO MATHETAE The Greek Club was formed in 1928 to foster a general interest in the study of Greek. The initial membership consists of twenty-one Greek students. During the year meetings which consider the modern application of the classical languages are held. An annual meeting, at which the club presents to promising Latin students the advantages of taking Creek is now being established. A CAPPELLA CHOIR The Inter-High School A Cappella Choir had its origin in the fall of 1931 when the Board of Education gave to lVl'r. Ralph L. Baldwin permission to form such a group. It now consists of seventy-two members from the high schools of the city. Excellence in reading music at sight, good tone quality and ability to hold pitch, sympathetic response to music and poetry are the requirements which must be met. Scholastic and deportment records are also taken into consideration. The choir sings the highest type of the unaccompanied music. Its history has been one of successive musical triumphs. JUNIOR GLEE CLUB Organized in 1919 as separate boys' and girls' clubs by Mr. James D. Price, the Junior Glee Club was combined in 1921. It has afforded fine training for future members of the Choir and Senior Glee Clubs. SENIOR ORCHESTRA Formed as an experimental orchestra in 1915, this group has been in existence up till the present day. It is an excellent place for students interested in music to further their interests. As a training for it the Junior Orchestra was established in 1923. Since then, Hartford High School has never been without two orchestras. 226 CTU QCIFUQ f . .u t .e t CAMERA CLUB Due to the current interest in photography, there was established in l9l36, a Camera Club at Hartford High. lt has offered much enjoyment. It has also been useful in that its members are delegated to take the candid shots used in the Class Book. ACADEMIA LATINA An interest in the classics prompted a group of girls to found in 1937 the Latin Club. In a short time, membership has grown to the number of thirty-nine. The most interesting feature of the clubls program is the elaborate Roman banquet at the end of every academic year. LE CERCLE FRANCAIS In 1919, a group of French students formed an organization which has become known as the French Club. Members of the circle have had at least one year of French with high standing and are especially interested in the language. The pro- grams are planned so that parts are conducted in French. IL CIRCOLO ITALIANO The Italian Club was organized on October 20, 19336. The membership once twenty-four has now grown to sixty-seven. The proceeds from its first public entertainment were used to start a collection of Italian books to be presented to the school library as a tribute to the retiring principal, Mr. Hyde, under whose guidance the study of Italian was inaugurated. 227 ,. i GW: 3. . .

ASTRONOMY CLUB The Astronomy Club was organized in 1934 by students who became interested in furthering the study of this subject in school. Since then, the club has been active in caring for the telescope in the observation tower and in promoting astron- omical studies. The group was recently instrumental in suggesting an amplifying system for the auditorium. PHYSICS LABORATORY CLUB In order to have ample time to associate wfith those who are interested in physics and who are interested in experiments and weekly tours, the Physics Lab Club was originated in 1936. BOYS' BIOLOGY CLUB On September 13, 1939, the Boys' Biology Club commemorates its tenth anni- versary. It was organized for those with a particular desire to work in the biological field. It has been a training place for future doctors, museum directors, and farmers. Special projects, such as incubating bacteria, taxidermy, poultry raising, and collecting of specimens have been carried on successfully. GIRLS' BIOLOGY CLUB The Girls, Biology Club was begun in 1928 with eleven girls as charter mem- bers. The requirements are a biology mark above MCU and an outstanding interest in the subject. A theme on a subject of biological interest must also be submitted every half-year. Study trips to museums, dairies, laboratories, hospitals, and laundries are planned. 223 can eros me cy SKETCH CLUB The Sketch Club as it is today was started in 1912 by Miss Frances Bacheler. It was a direct descendant of a club which met in 1905. Membership, limited to forty, is competitive. The club's aims are: to increase the knowledge of its members in the appreciation of art, to offer chances for experience in technique and media, and to develop individuality in the treatment of various problems. WORLD PROBLEMS CLUB Under the guidance of Miss Buth Hayden of the art department, a small group of seniors bound themselves together into a peace organization in November, 1933, for the purpose of promoting not merely peace but a constructive, balanced program of research into the causes and cures of wars and all other ills of the world and of promoting assemblies along these lines. Their hope was that their successors would carry their club onto much greater heights and would aid in achieving world peace. HISTORY-CIVICS CLUB The History-Civics Club was organized by students desiring to learn something of civic affairs. lts membership is limited to forty. Yearly it sends books to the School for the Blind and sponsors a penny campaign to obtain magazines for the library. ATHILNA The first girls, club to be organized at H. P. H. S. was the Athena.

Any student of the senior, junior, or sophomore classes is eligible for membership, providing there is a satisfactory standing in scholarship. HOPKINS DEBATING SOCIETY In 1903, the Hopkins Debating Club was founded as a competitive debating society for the already organized H. P. H. S. Debating Club. The purpose of the club was enlivened when The Batterson Prize Debate Series was established. In 1933, the name of the club was changed to the Hopkins Debating Society. Teams have entered Interscholastic Debates, bringing back honor to the school. H. P. H. S. DRAMATIC CLUB The H. P. H. S. Dramatic Club was organized in October, 1915. In its history many students have obtained training in dramatics. Others who some day wish to enter the field have learned important fundamentals. Over fifty plays have been presented during the twenty-four years of the club's existence. CRAFTS CLUB In February, 1934-, the Crafts Club was organized under the guidance of Miss Anderson for the purpose of furthering interest and skill in handicraft. A small, informal group of students who have a knowledge of the fundamentals of art meet to work on objects of metal, leather, or cloth. There is a great variety in working material, for each person works on a product of his own choice. GIRLS, COMMERCIAL CLUB Founded in 1917, the Girls' Commercial Club has steadily progressed and today has approximately forty members. The purpose of this organization is to have the commercial students become acquainted with modern business methods. At present the club sponsors each month accuracy tests in typewriting, awarding certificates to those pupils who type perfectly for definite lengths of time. 230 S551 ,, , BOYS' COMMERCIAL CLUB The Boys' Commercial Club was organized at Hartford High a little over twenty years ago for the purpose of stimulating interest in commercial affairs of the city and state.

GIRLS' LEADERS CORPS The Girls, Leaders Corps formed in 1901 by Miss Hills has worked toward the development of leadership ability among girls. Due to the large gymnasium classes, members are called upon to assist the teachers. Membership is open to juniors and seniors. A simple, practical test, consisting of apparatus work, free gymnastics and marching tactics, is given. A HC average in her academic work is also required from the applicant for admission. FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORE GIRLS' LEADERS CORPS The Freshman and Sophomore Girls' Leaders Corps has been in existence since 1936.
