We have obtained from our school no small part of the education necessary to take our places in the' line of civilian as well as military defense. As our nation, we too must unite all our ideals, energy, and background to gain a Victory which is most important to the young men and Women of America, a personal success, a personal Victory in Life. ,lust as the whole theme of American Life is based on Victory. so we have chosen Victory as the theme of our book.

It is our final opportunity to thank you for guiding us through the experience of the past as well as an opportunity to plead with you that you will still extend helping hands to us to guide us through the turbulence which awaits us. Our accomplishments during the past four years have not been great or many. They are, however, ours. With a certain amount of pride our historians and testators have compiled them. Of our future achievements we have but high hopes. Our prophets will endeavor to give you a glimpse of them. With almost childlike eagerness we have awaited the coming of this event and others connected with it. Too rapidly have they approached. A portion of that eagerness has changed to uncertainty for, at this point, we must respond to the beck and call of individual responsibility. Bearing in mind our uncertainty as well as our eagerness, we invite you to witness this night's program. The account of what we have accomplished and what we appear as slated to accomplish, is left for you to judge. PETER ZAHORODNI 151 1 CLASS ORATION Bulwarks of Defense ITH the ascension to power of the German and Japanese militarists, , the united nations foresaw a bloodthirsty war. A Second World f War, even more disastrous than the First, could be seen on the horizon. The prospect was clear. lt could be seen by all. Startled by this prospect, our government quickly appropriated billions for the total defense of our relatively unprotected shores. The vast sum of twenty-eight billions provides for the bolstering of our land, sea, and air forces with the greatest possible speed. Our defense program calls for the swift expansion of our industrial as well as our agricultural capacity for production. lt provides for the trained manpower to meet the demands of both industry and the armed forces in this time of crisis. But total defense means more than weapons and machines, and more than the mobilization of the material resources of the nation. lt means the full employment of our human resources as well. In nineteen hundred and eighteen a total defense was unnecessary. Our defense consisted of a well-organized, well-equipped army, re-enforced with organized management of industry and our economic structure. The war tactics of the combatants in the First VVorld War were simple. Their purpose was to defeat the armed forces, then claim the land. ln the present war, a total defense is indispensable, for the opposing forces try to break the morale of the citizen populace, then they proceed to combat the army. This necessitates not only an effective military unit but also a civilian defense system which will help to bolster the American morale. Democracy has great advantages. Among these advantages is the principle of individual rights and responsibilities. It is our duty to participate in the activities of Civilian Defense. Every able-bodied man and woman has been asked by the Office of Civilian Defense to enroll in an auxiliary fire company, or a first aid and rescue squad, or any other civilian defense group. In all of these, each individual is requested to do what he is capable of doing. Democracy expects everyone to con- tribute to the community simply what his talents and education allow. Dictatorship commands you to do your part. Democracy requests you to volunteer. Herein lies a fundamental difference between a democracy and a totalitarian state. Another tangible way of aiding in this crisis is by obtaining War Bonds with the money which we would otherwise have spent for luxuries, money which has too often been put to unworthy use. However, mental and physical health is the first prereq- uisite to any services we can offer to America. As our nation has been preparing a National Defense through these means. so we have been preparing for a personal defense through Hartford High School, through our respective churches, and through our home life. Hartford High School has helped to mold our characters. We have obtained from our studies an indispensable 152 W perseverance, from our extra-curricular activities the ability to cooperate, and from the daily routine lasting friendships. Above all, we have attained knowledge, truth, and tolerance. Through our church we have grasped the moral principles by which our lives are guided. Each of our churches has taught us to judge people not by race or creed but by the nature of their souls. It has endowed us with faith, faith in our country and in our God. And it has presented to us a vivid picture of our God. A third and important contributor to our progress in life is our home life. From our true, sincere, and real home life we have acquired the honorable traits of gener- osity, friendliness, and integrity. ln short, our home has given us our personality. These three, the home, the school, and the church, are the main guideposts which help us to make the difficult but delicate transition from early youth to manhood and womanhood. These are the most important molders of our personal defense, just as social adjustment in industry, agriculture, and finance are the most important molders of our National Defense. ' During these past four years America has obtained the materials necessary for but a minimum defense. There are still more planes, tanks, and guns to be made. There are still more Civilian Defense groups to be organized. Likewise, during these past four years we have obtained a minimum for personal defense. There is much more knowledge, integrity, and experience to be obtained. There are hundreds of books we have still to read. There are many problems yet to solve. There are still new and interesting friendships to be made. We are merely prepared with the mini- mum to enter our complex society. We have yet to grow. We have yet to make our personal defense an integral part of America. JOSEPH ADIIVOLFI, IR. 153 1 s i C L A S S E S S A Y Our Growth In Democracy OYCE KILMER in his best-known poem pays tribute to the beauty Q and loveliness of a tree. A tall, majestic tree which from a tiny seed has grown, a tree affording a haven to birds seeking shelter in its limbs, a tree emerging strong and defiant after having been rocked by storms--does it not merit our esteem? When in 1776 a group of men wrote these words, All men i V are created equal-,w they planted a seed-the seed of American democracy. During the War for Independence, under the leadership of George Washington, the colonists fought to release themselves from the yoke of a govern- ment in which they were not represented. Democracy had taken root in America. Consequently, when these people were faced with the task of framing a constitution for the new nation, democracy was the foundation upon which they built. In the 'Bill of Rights they embodied the basic ideas behind this form of government-free dom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and freedom of religion. From the seed a tree had sprung-a tree which won the admiration of oppressed peoples from all parts of the world. The ideals of liberty and freedom on which this nation was founded made it a haven for those who were not tolerated in foreign lands. Here they could find shelter and work. Here they could worship God as they pleased. Here their children could obtain an education. In no way can we see the sterling results of the democratic form of government more clearly than through an examination of the development of education in this country. With an increase in immigration and with the resultant growth of America, educational opportunities became more and more extensive. This branch of the tree of democracy has made it possible for every American-boy, girl, man, or woman-to obtain at least a high school education. Those with special aptitude or talent, through further study, contribute much to the progress of their country. This branch of our tree has indeed been fruitful in making a prosperous, more intelligent America. Since the founding of the nation it has been the constant aim of most Americans to broaden and extend the sphere of democracy. Thus, when certain weak spots were noted in regard to suffrage rights, the people of this country worked to correct them. For scores of years states denied the right to vote because of property stipulations, because of color, and because of sex. Gradually, the property qualifications disap- peared in most states, but it was not until after the Civil War that an amendment to 154 iid: 7 5' , ,W elgffggsb 4-,rm w ' the Constitution gave the suffrage right to all male citizens, regardless of race or color. In 1920, the women of America, after years of campaigning, won for them- selves the voting privilege. The tree continued to grow. Our country was becoming more and more democratic. The growth of democracy in America has indeed been like the growth 'of a tree. 'From a mere seed planted in 1776 it has become stronger with the yearsg it has sheltered millions of oppressed peopleg it has weathered many storms. Today our tree is strong, and it needs this strength because it is facing a grave crisis. It is struggling for its very existence. In the far corners of the globe American men are fighting to protect this ideal called democracy. We, who have received so many of the blessings of democracy, must continue the fight. We must defeat the forces of totalitarianism intent upon uprooting our form of government. Only then will democracy continue to flourish. Only then will our tree continue to grow. VIRGINIA M.

The curtain opens on a scene typical of a frenzied day in the 1. C. U. Bureau in Washington. We find the chief coordina- tor, Cordial Hull, and his secretary, Fitty Koyle, anxiously await- ing the arrival of his distinguished guests. Who are they? Where are they? Why are they? Are 1- 9 --they? Cordial-Take a letter, Miss Koyle. To the President of the United States, Wash- ington, D. C., June 19, 1962. Dear Franklin: 1 have resided in Washington for several years and have been told that the Capitol is a very interesting building. However, I have not yet been able to locate it. ls it on the right or left-hand side of the street and which one? Cordially, Cordial Hull. fCordial picks up an ear of corn and begins to husk itxl Fuller Lies enters and says: Am 1 late? 1 just came cross-country. Say, Cord, 1 haven't seen you since We were in Miss Darling's French Class together. On the train, 1 was talking to Ruth McCoombs, secretary to Rocco Paolino, whois running for president on the Socialist ticket, and she was telling me that Ruth Thorsell married Tom Keenan whois still pitching. F itty-Pitching? Fuller--Yes, hay on a farm in 1owa! Well, if it isn't Fitty Koyle! What's news? F itty-Elizabeth Kingsley was just voted the outstanding woman athlete of the year and received the Charles Rumley Award. Cordial-You didn't happen to run across Harry Arnini's work, did you? The Gov- ernment just awarded him a contract to paint the white traffic lines on the nationis streets and highways. Enter Miss Jerkins. 156 K . Cordial-Hello, Frances. Frances Jerkins, may I present the chairman of the Lies Committee? F rances-Oh, I know, you're Fuller-Fuller Lies! F itty-Say, have you seen this issue of Virginia Wallace's Farm Journal with Norma Benson's picture on the cover? She's one of Phil Bauer's models. And, look, Irene Nasuta sketched it. Unnoticed, Slumber has entered the room and now says, in Red Skelton style: I Well, here I am! Chorus-Senator Slumber Wells! Enter Dorothy Halfgallon. Fuller-And Dorothy Halfgallon! What fortune! What luck! Dorothy--Do you have any of Nancy Swanson's soap? I've just finished writing my dirt column! By the way, Cordial, what's this meeting for? Can I get a story on it? Slumber-Well, here I am! F rances-What have you been doing with yourself, Slum? Slumber-l've been traveling through the South and I dropped in to see Warden Bob Lynch. He had just finished ordering some rope from the Franklin Nott Hemp Co. for a new swing for the prisoners. He tells me, by the way, that John Luby, Public Enemy No. 1,776, is being released on parole. Cordial-The meeting will come to order! The purpose of this meeting is to write the Whois Who' of the Class of '42. Frances-Thatls fine. I haven,t been doing any work for a long time. Slumber-Nor I. Cordial-Fine, fine. Fitty, fetch the files. Frances turns to Dorothy and says: You certainly gave Ralph and John a 4A write-up in your column! Fuller-Ralph and John who? F rances-Ralph Maccarone and John Moore who made their debut at Carnegie Hall last night. Ralph thrilled his audience with his baritone voice and John with his new piano concerto. Dorothy-And Angela DeMartino should have rated a 4A write-up also when she left her voice to the Italian Chorus. F itty-Speaking of music, Marie Girard is in the musical spotlight. F uller-Oh, yes, shels the leading vocalist with Hercules Parandes' all-girl orchestra. Slumber-Barbara Furey and Pat Sexton have just left for India to teach the Pagan Love Songv and Hawaiian War Chantv to the natives. Dorothy-Didn't we get a laugh when Nina Volchak left her bow at Hartford High? Cordial-What did Betty Miller leave? Dorothy-Her contralto voice to help Mr. Price with his future Hora Novissimav rehearsals. F itty returns from the files and passes out some papers. F itty-Here, maybe these will help you. 157 Slumber-It says here that Dick Welch left a time bomb in the basement of the school. There is a loud Boom from the distance. F uller-Pretty big bomb, wasn't it? Slumber-Will you ever forget the times Ned Cosgrove left his barber with a dis- gusted look on his face? Cordial-Howard Wetstone is director of the Institute of Speech. Fuller-Still up to his old tricks, eh? Cordial-And Melvin Sussman and Gene Marra are conducting a sight-seeing tour. I understand Natalie Petzack is one of the chief points of interest. F rances-You know, Midge Landry picked a queer job for herself. She's a lion trainer with the Rocco Capobianco Circus. Mary Schiavetti and Alvera Mannel are bareback riders in the same show. Slumber-The feature attraction of Roccois Circus is J. X. Donahue. He's ,Iumb0's dancing partner. Fuller-Henry Borawski does a big packing business. Fitty-Packing business? F uller-Yes, he packs the elephants' trunks! Fitty--Here's a list of people found in the Lost column: Mary Fahey, Anne Demos, Margaret Whalen, Anne DeLusso, Mary Mullady, Pat O'Connell, and Nancy Brignole. Slumber-Oh, Pat O'Connell has his ups and downs. Heis running the elevator in the Empire State Building. Dorothy-Well, I remember that Nancy Brignole left her sales ability to Louis Caputa, and Anne Demos left her hands to Miss Hayden's art department. Filly-Mary Fahey and Anne DeLusso left their quietness for future use in assemblies. Frances-Uh, Mary Mullady and Margaret Whalen have feature parts inyglsen and Johnsonis new hit show HPlacid Patty. Cordial-Say, I hear T. Walter Johnson has a job taking care of that old millionaire John Giligian. Fuller-But I thought Wally wanted to be a mortician? Cordial-Well, it amounts to the same thing, doesn't it? Frances-Duffy and Roche are running a nursery. Do you know what their slogan is? Slumber-Yes, it's, Bring in the babes, and we'll take care of them! Fuller-Say, itis rather warm in here. Cordial-Why donit you go down to Bill Duguay's drug store and bring back some of Sibby Cocola's cokes? Fuller-I'll bring back a newspaper too. Exit Fuller and Slumber. Fitty-I saw the most thrilling movie last night. Francis Feeney and Helen Dinney in '4We two-alo-ne?,' The Burkholder Twins were appearing there in person on the stage. Cordial looks at his watch and moves toward the radio. Cordial-Broke Carter is on now. I'll bet we missed half of his program already. 158 Radio-. . . And Irving Watchel has left his athletic equipment to the school. 4 News splash! Hartford High has just defeated New Britain High for the elev- enth consecutive year. The score, 52-0. However, it was a moral victory for New Britain, because they got past the 50-yard line for the first time in three years. The little brother, J oe DePaolis, was left there to hold them back. Flash! Our diplomat to China, One Lung Leete, has just been chosen a candidate for tl1e next presidential election. And this is Broke Garter, signing off for Pillion's ' Pretty Pink Pills. Theme song: MP-P-P-Pillionis, P-P-P-Pillion's, Weire quite sure these pinky pills You will adore! P-P-P-Pillionis, You mean dear Pillionls? When you try these wonderful pills, You'll ask for more. Dorothy-Letis listen to HFifth Husband. She switches station and hears: Radio's Bert-The Litts I see of you, Rilma, the better we'll be. Rilma-Oh, Bert, Dully really think so? Bert-It matters not. I love you. Rilma-I know you love me. Bert-I know that you know I love you. Rilma--Oh, Bert! Girl listengiswoon. Announcer-Does he love her, or will there be a sixth? This is !'Fifth Husbandl' signing off. The part of Bert was played by Neal Blake and Rilma by Mildred Christiana. Your announcer is Robert Sibbach. The phone rings. Frances turns the radio off as Fitty picks up the phone. Fitty-l. C. U. Bureau. Yes, he is. She turns to Cordial: F itby--Mr. Monroe Himelstein is on the phone. Cordial picks up the phone. Cordial-Hello, Monroe. What are you doing with yourself ? Tap and Ballet Instructor at the Clara Grubelich School for Dizzy Debs? You say you want a dietician, eh? Well, Nancy Hansen has had some good training in that line. Some vacancies in the teaching staff ?

Grace Quinn will come if you give her a room with a southern exposure. Goodbye, Monroe. Good luck! 159 Slumber and Fuller have entered during the telephone conversation. Fuller-Here're your cokes. Guess whom I encountered on the main thoroughfare? Lee Chung! He's manufacturing pop guns. He tells me that Anne Boublis is a bacteriologist in Panama where Dominic Castagna is teaching American Historv. Slumber reads from the newspaper he has been looking at. Slumber-Huge Blaze! Flames lick Swietliskils Lollypop Concern! Esther Yaffeels Taffy Factory Also Consumed! Several boxes of lollypops salvaged and left to the suckers of the Junior Class. Frances fseizing part of paperj-Hey, here's a picture of Pete Zahorodni and a full- page ad. Hels opened a super-deluxe restaurant.

They've written Humphrey and Hoffman's Simplified History for Simple Sophomoresf' Dorothy-Well, that certainly qualifies them for a place in Who's Who. Cordial-How about Connie Landry?

I have a meeting at the Ritz with Ruth Zola and Marj Rollins. You know, they're heading a committee for the abolition of wearing high heels with slacks. F itty-You know, looking backwards, we really were members of a wonderful class. Fuller-And we surely had plenty of good fun together. Dorothy-There's hardly a person who didn't achieve fame or distinction. Cordlkzl-But haven,t we neglected the most important of our fellow-classmates? Slumber-I think I know whom you mean. Cordial-Why not dedicate our book to the boys who fell in the Great War? All of cast advance slowly to front of stage. Grouped about in a semi-circle, they hear Cordial say: Cordial-May I suggest this dedication: To the men of Hartford High who gave their lives to the cause of human freedom. Frances-And to the women of Hartford High who strove so valiantly in the same effort. i All in unison: To the men and women who built upon the ashes of war the foundations of a stronger, freer, better America. : l ' ' Curtain.

Remember our own surprise and wonderment when we returned after a week's vacation to find that cheesecloth had been tacked up at the windows, that the transoms had been boarded up, and that the glass-covered pictures which once adorned the halls had been removed. To us, it was unbelievable that this dark, gloomy place was HPHS. Our session rooms and our spirits, however, were as bright and cheery as ever. Besides these changes in the appearance of the school, many of our classes were interrupted by the sound of five short bells followed by five short bells-the signal for an air raid drill. This cue sent pupils scrambling to places of safety in the first and second floor halls and in the gyms. Realizing that this was a really serious part of school life, pupils and faculty co-operated in making all drills successful. A group of Victory Activities were added to the curriculum in 1942. A class in Navigation, which was open to the boys and conducted during the choir period on Wednesday, gave our future naval officers and men some fundamental knowledge about navigating ships. Women in all walks of life have, since our entrance into the war, taken an interest in nutrition. Not to be outdone by outside organizations, Hartford High added this course to its program. The girls in this class discovered which foods are essential and where strength-giving vitamins are to be found. About 100 boys from the senior and junior classes made up the Auxiliary Fire Department of the school. This class made the front pages! A picture of a bomb demonstration made before our fire-fighting force appeared in an edition of one of the daily papers. It was the duty of the boys enrolled in this course to patrol certain parts of the building designated as stations in the event of an emergency. Courses in First Aid and Defense Shop Training also became an important part of the school curriculum. During April a group of distinguished visitors, representatives of the War Department, came to our school to see what we were doing to help in the war effort. Lieutenant Robert E. Wagner in addressing the upper classmen explained the importance of stepping up production. An inspection of our manual arts department showed them that HPHS was playing an important part in training boys for war industries. Although these activities which will make possible our country's victory in this war took up much of the students, time, the usual effort went into the regular courses which will make possible victory in life. Yes, school went on just about as usual- report cards came out as always, numerous successful social activities, including our annual Student Council Club Night, were held, and Hartford High again triumphed in various athletic tilts. Arguments among members of the student body are not encouraged at HPHSg that is, unless they are in the form of debates. This year members of the HPHS , A 167 5 , DEBATING CLUB celebrated the sixtieth anniversary of the founding of their organization. Sixty years of promoting and increasing interest in debating is a fine record indeed. HOPKINS DEBATING SOCIETY this year was victorious in the ever-popular Batterson Prize Debate. Its members also were impressive on the state teams. Besides holding intra-club debates, this year the ATHENA sponsored a Christmas party at which members of the Agora of Bulkeley High School were guests. A wide assortment of games and good things to eat comprised the program. The big event on the K. B. L. S. calendar was the trip to New York where they saw a Broadway play and went sight-seeing. These girls really deserved the trip, as they earned their way by having a candy sale. To the future Edna Ferbers and Sinclair Lewises, THE CHRONICLE offers grand opportunities. Not only does it give a thrill to the young author to see his work in print, but also it gives him good training and increases his ability to,write interestingly and well. The Chronicle always has a wide variety of stories and one is always able to find an article to suit his taste. To those who are interested in writing, wonderful opportunities lie in con- tributing to the school newspaper, HARTFORD HIGH OWLET. In so doing, one receives excellent training in all fields of journalism-front page writing, interviews, feature stories, make-up work, headline writing, and sports news. Do you remember the ACADEMIA LATINA Christmas party? An interesting quiz program, the singing of carols in Latin, and plenty of luscious refreshments made the activity thoroughly enjoyable. Who wants another hot dog? and HWhere are the marshmallows? were words often heard at LE CERCLE FRANCAIS picnic which started another grand year for the club. They've done it before and they can do it again! meaning the talented IL CIRCOLO ITALIANO, which again captured the grand prize at Club Night for their skit entitled Be They Ever So Humble. They weren't satisfied with this great success, but triumphed again at the Italian Club Program. Very active, as usual, has been DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN or, to us, the German Club. The members really enjoyed themselves at the Easter party where they played games and were entertained by a short skit in which Franklin Nott, Tamara Zinovick, and Arra Negararian took part. HELLENO-MATHETAE has had a banner year. Along with the study of the Greek language, a novel quiz program, styled after many of the famous radio quizzes, and a scavenger hunt were the highlights of the year. The annual picnic ended the year with a bang!! From all reports the SKETCH CLUB artists had a grand time at their fall outing in Keney Park. That night new members had strange dreams about the Mona Lisa and Leonardo Da Vinci and claimed to hear music in the distance. Could it have been the playing of Conrad Rothman and Girard Perone? 169 if The CRAFTS CLUB was organized with the intention of developing leaders in the art field, to teach members to express themselves, to think, to feel, to appreciate, to create, and to grow. Through this club its members enter into the real life of the school in its varied activities. Broken test tubes, smoking acids, Bunsen Hames-a perfect setting for the CHEMISTRY CLUB. Many exciting and educational experiments were held by these chemistry enthusiasts. Wh'at kind, for instance? Well, how should you like to make your own soap as they did? Highlighting this yearis activities in the PHYSICS LAB CLUB was the Liquid Air Show presented during the first semester. Largely through the aid of Mr. Brooks, faculty adviser, the show was a great success. This year again the big event on the ASTRONOMY CLUB program was their trip to Hayden Planetarium in New York. Club members got quite a thrill from seeing the giant Normandie lying on its side in New York harbor. The BOYS BIOLOGY CLUB is devoted to promoting interest in living plants and animals. fWe hear.J But when they're not busy doing that, you're sure to find them visiting the Fro-Joy Ice Cream Company or the Bond Bread Bakers. Trips to Hartford Hospital, Trinity Museum, and the Highland Dairy were but a part of the busy program of the GIRLS BIOLOGY CLUB this year. Didn't you enjoy the prize-winning skit, Angel of the Battlefieldfi presented by the club at the Students Council Night? Several members of our faculty have donated their talents to the WORLD PROBLEMS CLUB meetings. All meetings were very interesting, especially the talk on The Irish Question which was given by Mr. Smith, the club's adviser. A preview of making a living in the business world is offered members of the GIRLS COMMERCIAL CLUB. Visits to various firms and demonstrations of office machines make up a large part of the club's activities. We wish them all the success of Mary Serious in their future business careers. Do you remember Mary? That's right, she was a leading character in the Club Night skit. Thanksgiving in the homes of many needy families was a much happier and more cheerful day because of the VESTA CLUB. The girls this year, as usual, continued the splendid practice of taking holiday dinners to the poor of the city at this time of year. Keep them reqgingw was the motto of the JUNIOR RED CROSS in its drive for books for the soldiers at the Windsor Locks Air Base. This was but one more addition to the numerous services rendered the community by this organization-. The CAMERA CLUB received much praise after Club Night for their very unusual skit, for which they won second prize. Will you ever forget the policeman, who was always on his job at the wrong time? The newest club at HPHS, namely the H CLUB, which is comprised of boys who have received their H in some sport, started out with a bang. They held a very successful banquet at which Dan Iessee, Trinity coach, was the chief speaker. 171 Almost anyone who likes to attend school sports events joins the ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. Membership in this club means reduced prices at games, at the same time assuring a greater attendance, which in turn means new, better uniforms for the players. It's a case of helping them, and in return being helped. The most important organization functioning at HPHS is the STUDENTS COUNCIL. Our STUDENTS COUNCIL is to us what the American Congress is to the people of the United States. It inspires a democratic spirit, offering the pupils a chance to have a say in many school undertakinggs. It makes stronger the ties between pupils and faculty. It attempts to enforce the rules of the school in a friendly but firm manner. It is the voice of thdrpupils. , Each year the members of the SMILEY CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY look forward to the annual banquet held in June. An opportunity to hear distinguished guest speakers, to renew acquaintances, and to enjoy a delicious dinner justifies their sentiments, don't you think? On trains, in stores, everywhere you go you see Hartford High rings. The loyal Alumni who wear them are working to bring victory to our country and look back to HPHS, which helped them to attain victory in their own lives. Thus, in joining the ALUMNI ASSOCIATION we become a part of this growing group. 178 A CAPPELLA CHOIR Consisting of students from the three high schools of Hartford, the A Cappella Choir has just completed its eleventh successful season. As was customary in the past, the Choir presented its annual Christmas concert at the three schools. After the Christmas holidays, the Choir, under the able direction of Mr. James D. Price, serenaded the Rotary Club at a luncheon in the ballroom of the Bond Hotel on February 23. Next, in view of the current events, the Choir participated in a complimentary broadcast in March to Hartfordis sister city in England, Hertford. After this event, the Choir devoted its attention to the preparation of the selections for the state Musical Festival Contest, which was held on April 24 in East Hartford. At this event, the lnter-High A Cappella Choir was given a double A rating by the judges, who rated the groups according to the excellence of their work. The Choir officially ended its season May 8. 176 COMBINED SENIOR GLEE CLUBS Founded in 1903 by Ralph L. Baldwin, ex-director of music in the Hartford schools, the Senior Glee Clubs of HPHS, for the second time in their history, have had to master a war situation. One-third of the original personnel was lost because of members working in defense industries and insurance companies. Nevertheless these students were replaced and two successful performances were presented at the annual Club Nights. The club continuedg its hard and efficient work and offered a chorus in the famous work, Hora Novllssima, by Horatio Parker, which was presented by the Senior Choir in their annual concert at the Bushnell Memorial Hall. In their public appearance, the clubs maintained their high standards of presenta- tion despite many losses owing to current emergencies. Mr. Elmer, the capable and inspiring leader of the Senior Glee Clubs, in commenting on the yearis work, has said, Despite the presence of a large number of sophomores, the 1941-42 clubs compared favorably with clubs of other years. 177 A MUSIC LESSON HPHS BAND Organized in the fall of l939 hy the late Jack Cohen. past teacher of music in the Hartford and Weaver High Schools, the Hartford Public High School Band has concluded its third consecutive year of existence. Lahoring, this year? under the added hurden of conductorless rehearsals, the organization has proved its worthiness. This year, the band has appeared at most, if not all, of the patriotic programs and rallies. Splcndidly arrayed in uniforms of lmlue and white, the musical group has played as well as marched at the football events. The presence of the hand at the rallies. programs, and sports events has greatly increased school spirit. The personnel of the hand consists of both boys and girls. Rehearsals are held on Friday mornings. Since the day of its birth. the hand has increased its prestige and skill to such an extent that, if it should he discontinued. it would be greatly missed by the students and their friends. I V 178 THE SENIOR CHOIR Prominent among all musical organizations is the Senior Choir. The oldest school musical group in Hartford, it was founded in 1905. Consisting entirely of volunteers, its membership annually borders around two hundred fifty. Each year, the choir as ai result of the year's practices and rehearsals, presents a concert at the Bushnell Memorial. This year, the choir under the skillful direction of James Denning Price, made its thirteenth appearance at this famous Hall on May 21, 19412, and for the first time in ten years, sang the Hora Novissima by the famed Horatio Parker. I II rr . 'r-A riffs' 1. 'bfi .Y f W 'A-. .fax J' 'A INTER-H IGH ORCHESTRA Composed of students from the three high schools, the Inter-High Orchestra has suffered a decrease in its membership because of present conditions. Nevertheless the musical group functioned quite successfully under the able direction of Mr. James D. Price. As igzprevious years, the Orchestra, in its annual spring presentation of the year's work, played at each of the three, high schools. As in the many times past, the Inter-High Orchestra will take part in each of the three school commencement exercises. This year, also, the Orchestra added the famed Hora N ovissima by Horatio Parker to its repertoire and accompanied the HPHS Choir in its presentation of the great work in the Bushnell Memorial on May 21. 179 Senior Reception Committee fLeft to rightl Thomas V. Keenan James McGillicuddy Constance Landry Barbara Furey Edward Cosgrove 180 THE SOCIAL REVIEW MIDST a colorful setting of corn stalks, pumpkins, and autumn l E leaves, the Boys Club Harvest Moon Ball opened the social whirl at Hartford High this year. Hanging from the ceiling was a kind-looking witch, who dangled perilously over the heads of the dancers throughout the evening. She was introduced to us all as Hanah Hayseed. Mirth and jollity prevailing throughout the evening, the patrons and patronesses, the students, and Miss Hayseed, all agreed that the third annual Harvest Moon Ball was a great social success. In December, the members of the Girls League, with their escorts, turned out en masse for the Yuletide. The gym was colorfully' decorated with red anll white streamers, a cluster of bells, suspended above the dancers in the middle of the floor, and four huge Christmas trees, one in each corner. So, you see, the setting was typical of the season, and the beaming faces of those present falirly matched the gaiety of the decorations. Excellent dance music was provided for the affair by Tiny Quinn and His Commanders. The first sport dance of the year was given in January by the Students Council, and featured novelty dances, the most popular of which proved to be the 6'Blackout. Pat Byrd and his orchestra furnished the music. During the second spring vacation the social lights had a chance to come together at the Holiday Hop, the second sport dance of the year given by the Students Council. It, too, was featured with novelties. This was the first time that a dance had been held during a vacation and, according to the attendance, it was evidently a popular change. Another social success was chalked up to the Girls League on May 15, when the gym was gaily decorated in Dutch style for the Springtime. Colorful blue and yellow tulips were seen everywhere as the couples waltzed to the music of Pat Byrd and his orchestra. Of course, we are now all anxiously awaiting the grandest ball of the year, the Senior Reception of the Class of '42. According to reports, we have evtery reason to expect that it will be the finest affair yet attended by the members of our class. 181 SENIOR NIGHT On January 22, 1942, as the lights of the auditorium were dimmed, the curtain rose on the long awaited Senior Night. As master of ceremonies Jim McGillicuddy opened the show with U, S. Navy, or Death in a Barber Chair, starring Jack Butler, Ed Kurowsky, and their barber shop quartet. That immortal producer, Henry Borawski, then entertained us with a piano solo. The Burkholder Twins made their acrobatic dance one to he long remembered. Everyone roared as Herc Parandes portrayed the lover in Macbeth a la Mud with Betty Grechko as Lady Macbeth. Many a tear fell as Betty Miller sang HWhen Irish Eyes Are Smiling, and patriotic hearts were filled with fire as Ethel Maloney gave her patriotic monologue. We all thrilled to Ethel Church's singing of A Heart That. ls Free , later Barbara Furey wowed us with her arrangement of Rose O' Dayn in the skit A Friday Evening at the Landry's, or 6'We Didn't Want Dates Anyhowf' - Up-Up-Up were the words of the innocent young girl, Betty Harris, as she climbed the lighthouse steps to meet the terrible villain, Arline Grape, in their tragic melodrama. Raphael Maccarone's singing of The Indian Love Call, which won for him the individual prize, was one of the highlights of the evening. Last, but not least, those two major outcasts, Lowry Powder-my-nose Pierce, and Carl Brush my tux Bloomquist, gave their immortal version of that great HPHS tradition, the annual Yuletide, with Joe Bonee and Hank Borawski as the two pappas . We often wonder who fixed Lowry up, and we'd like to know where Joe Mascolo got all the plants which he carried across the stage. The gym was gaily decorated with balloons for the dance afterwards, with the Virginia Reel as the feature. We all had a grand time, and everyone agreed that the Senior Night of '42 was one that would long be remembered. we 185 f-'Us W 1 J' N215 , Q BS.

'h ATHLETICS With the coming of the national crisis, athletics has become an increasingly vital part of the American educational system. We still participate in athletics mainly for enjoyment, and must continue to do so, but we must also realize that today there is a more demanding cry for a sound mind in a sound body than there ever has been before. Girls and boys alike must strive more earnestly for better bodily development, not only for their own sake, but .also, what is more important, for the sake of democracy. According to the records of the teams over the past three or four years, sports at Hartford High have taken an upward trend. Of course, we have been disappointed with some of the performances of the teams, but never has the student body given a team cause to believe that the school was not backing it all the way. The city, district, and state titles annexed by our teams have more than atoned for some of their failures. This year, the HH Club was formed as a stimulus to clean sportsmanship among the athletes of Hartford High. Its membership is composed of boys who have earned a letter in any sport whatsoever. We feel sure that the HH Club will justify its existence, and that athletics will prosper in the future because of it. 188 CROSS - COUNTRY Hartford High can this year boast of a team which won the State lnterscholastic Meet and the State Invitation Meet, and placed fifth in the New England Inter- scholastic Meet. Chet Kobialka, Edward Lemieux, Harold Hilliard, ,lim Hanley, ,lohn Kennedy, Art Kelly, and Ed Murphy led the harriers throughout the season, Kobialka again winning highest honors in the state. The boys ran superbly in every meet, beating the majority of their opponents by vast margins. In June. Coach Amann will be losing three outstanding men in Kobiallca, Hilliard, and Kennedy, but next year's team will be strongly bolstered by the return of Lemieux, Hanley, Kelly, and Murphy.

Although the records show a season's average of .500, there is a glorious story of HPHS courage behind each game. The sweetest victory for the Newellmen was against Bulkeley, winning 20-13. HPHS held a 13-0 lead at the half, due to smashing touchdown jaunts by Hal Heintz and Jim McKone. But Bulkeley came back in. the second half with a vengeance to tie the count at 13-13. At this point Hal Heintz spearheaded a deadly attack and passed to Joe DePaolis in the end zone for the winning touchdown. Another highlight of the season was a 25-0 victory over Hillhouse ir which Al Pope and Bat Castellani starred. This was our first victory over Hillhouse in over a decade.

SWIMMING This year the Hartford High Swimming Team has again added a successful chapter to its interscholastic swimming history, winding up the season with ten victories and three defeats. The Yale Freshmen combined with Pawtucket High to account for two of the setbacks, and Gardner High provided the third in a thriller at Gardner, Massachusetts. It was the first time in the history of swimming at HPHS that a team had been allowed to travel to another state to compete. The team downed the rest of its opponents by large margins. However, the most exciting meet of all was the one with Crosby, which finally decided the State championship in favor of Hartford. The boys had been looking forward to that meet all season, and were eager to avenge their defeat by Crosby last year. When it was over, the members of the team were about to throw Charlie Stone, their genial manager, into the pool, but decided against this when he cried out, Wait! Wait! I can't swimlw The team, suffering much by last year,s graduation, had to work especially hard to maintain its excellent record and garner its eighth consecutive state championship. Bob Kulpanowski, Paul Gilberto, Joe Bonee, Swede Bloomquist, and Bill Boyce led the free-stylers this year, Kulpanowski emerging state champion in the 220-yard swim and the 100-yard dash. ,lim Hanley and Cubie,, Tryzcinski were outstanding throughout in the breaststroke, while in the backstroke Mike Yedziniak and Bob McManus proved to be the strongest team combination in the state, Yedziniak capturing the 100-yard backstroke crown at the State Meet. Hartford was also well represented in the dives by Lowry Pierce and John Garvey. At the end of the season, there were eleven lettermen on the squad. 192 At graduation, the team will lose Sweden Bloomquist, who swam various free- style distances this yearg ,loe Bonee, a fast sprint man, Lowry Pierce, an outstanding diver, and Ned Cosgrove and Bob McManus, two stellar backstrokers. Returning next year, however, will be Kulpanowski, Yedziniak, Hanley, Garvey, Gilberto, Boyce, Pete Bonee, Dawidowicz, Oberg, Lundeberg, and the Powers brothers, all of whom should assure the team of continued success.

All but Smith and Hunt will be graduating this year. It is with all due confidence that we say, If the tennis balls hold out, so will our victorious teamlw -0-Q-v GOLF Up till the time of the publication of this book, the golf team had not been organized. We have been informed, however, that the team will probably have no matches with teams other than those in the city, Weaver and Bulkeley, due to the rationing of gasoline. It appears that the transportation of teams for participation in athletic contests will become an increasingly more difficult problem as the war progresses, and that the students of Hartford High, as of other schools, will have to be content with more localized competition. The Iinksmen are the first HPHS athletes to be affected by the present situation, and we may be sure they will accept it in true Hartford High fashion. 193 BASEBALL The l942 baseball season got under way with HPHS, the defending city champions, having high hopes for an undefeated season. According to the games played before this book went to press, Coach Woodworth seems to have come up with another winning team. Such veterans as Captain Arnie Lewis, Tom Keenan, Joe Mascolo, Harold Heintz, and Lars Swahn have proven their ability by brilliant playing. Of the first year men on the team, Bill Pitkin, Bill Leahey, Bob Wynne, and Bob Armstrong appear to have won their spurs on the varsity nine. In the first game of the season HPHS trounced LaSalette 10-0, combining shut- out pitching by Tom Keenan and ,lack Scully with powerful hitting by Captain Lewis. Heintz, and Swahn. In their first game for the city title, HPHS smashed through Bulkeley with a 6-1 victory. Once again the sterling southpaw, Tom Keenan, puzzled the opposing batters. He allowed three hits and one unearned run in nine full innings. Hartford Highis defense shone bright as the infield combined to make three double plays. Heintz, Keenan, and Swahn led the hitting for the day. The remainder of the schedule is as follows: East Hartford fawayj New Britain New Britain fawayj Saint Thomas fawayj Weaver fawayj New London Bulkeley Bulkeley New Haven Weaver Weaver 194 TRACK With several meets still to come, it appears that Larry Amann's track team will again be one of the best in the state. Leading the team have been Vic Iarrnoulovfich and John Murray in the 100-yard and 200-yard dashes, Skorupa in the pole vault, Charlie Stone and Bob Kulpanowski in the quarter, Hanley, Gionfriddo, and Drew in the half, Harold Hilliard, Ed Murphy, and Ed Lemieux in the mile, Harris and Bruce Smith in the weights, and Turner in the high jump. Thus far, the boys have won two out of three meets, losing a tough one to Manchester. In addition, at the Connecticut relays, Hartford took three events, the half, mile, and two-mile relays, and placed second in the quarter-mile relay. Therefore, we may rest assured that the team will wind up the season with an enviable record. Leaving the team at graduation are Harold Hilliard, one of the best distance men in the state, Charlie Stone and Lou Gionfriddo, outstanding at the middle distances, and John Murray and '6Corney', Cunningham, stellar' performers in the dashes. However, the return of Jarmolovich, Hanley, Lemieux, Kulpanowslii, Murphy, and Drew should assure us of a strong team in 1943.

Not only did the team capture the city title, but it had on it the district's leading scorer, Bill Pitkin, and several all-city players. Although the season opened with a one-point defeat to New Britain, we could tell that the team was made of championship stuff. Immediately following the opening game, the team hit its stride and turned in some overwhelming victories. The only thing that kept this fighting five from going to the state tournament was the fact that it had not played enough Class A schools to qualify. Two of the outstanding achievements of the season were the defeats handed to our city rival, Weaver, by the scores of 40-38 and 48-37. Bulkeley turned in a major upset by dumping HPHS in the first game 30-20, however, this only raised the wrath of Johnny Newell's boys, and The Owls returned to whip Bulkeley 37-35 in the last game of the season. u Next year should be a happy one for the HPHS basketball team, as the only letterman graduating is Captain Joe DePaolis. The returning lettermen are: Joe Heavy, Bill Pitkin, Bill Powers, John Tedone, Joe Walsh, George West, Jack Scully, Bill Leahey, Frank Wlodkowski, Lars Swahn, and Harold Heintz.

This time we hail the new interest which has arisen in womenis sports --whether it be because of the victory movement afoot, which urges healthy bodies-or whether it's because the gals want to keep their figures-we wonder! The enthusiasm and vitality which our girls have shown in almost every sport is amazing. No longer does the once weaker ibut still fairerj sex have to warm the benches on the sides of the athletic field. If the lads don't watch out, theylll soon be wondering which girls made the grid- iron eleven. As yet, though, the girls are keeping to the more dignified sports- bowling, basketball, softball, volley ball, tennis, badminton, ping pong, golf, swim- ming. Of course, we must classify the Girls Leaders Corps as an athletic group, too, for theylve had training and experience in almost every sport and game that is introduced to Hartford High. First of the sports teams, we must mention the group thatis been plugging away all year in fair or stormy weather- the bowling team. They met every Friday afternoon and played at the Schaefer Alleys. Anne Rakauskas deserves the laurels for the highest single string, having bowled a high of 115. Other super-duper scores were made by Beatrice Sack, 110, Arline Kaiser, 106, Laura Caetano, 105. The highest averages for the whole ten weeks were made by Laura Caetano, 85, Arline Kaiser, Mildred Bouchard, 77. The Archery Club also met weekly throughout the year-and boy! Hiawatha had nothing over them! They have shown some pretty fine marksnianship, with special praise going to Anna Krupa, for 197 being the senior girl with the most bull's-eyes. Other senior members included Bette Underwood, Ethel Church, Constance Landry, and Marguerite Landry. Basketball was the first seasonal sport of the year and the energy which the girls displayed is to be admired. Orchids to you, Eileen Gorman, captain, and your team consisting of Liz Kingsley, Edna Mahoney, Liz Zelek, Sophie Makarewicz, Mary 07Brien, and Barbara Lawrence, substitute. Spring brought new interests in the sport world, e. g., in softball, golf, tennis, and swimming. The gals, baseball nine consisted of Elizabeth Kingsley, captain, Nancy Hansen, Helen Butler, Margaret Morrin, Mary Pardus, Edna Mahoney, Mary O7Brien, Alice Christopoulos, and Eileen Gorman. The girls played different positions every week. Thursdays found many feminine golf fans on the West Hartford Golf Course 4. Q .Q- GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM 198 on Mountain Road. The senior girls who went are Eileen Gorman, June Hainsey, Barbara Handley, and Anna Krupa. Although there is no definite girls, tennis team laren't you glad you havenlt any competition, Mr. Perry?j many feminine tennis enthusiasts met every Tuesday at the Pope Park Tennis Courts. The senior girls were Mary Badalian, Elizabeth Kingsley, Katherine Kinnery, Margaret Morrin, Helen Poltorak, Leona Provencal, Elizabeth Zibbidio, and Catherine Wade. The five senior girls who belonged to the mermaid group were Patricia Ahern, Alice Christopoulos, Elizabeth Kingsley, Eileen Gorman, and Anne Sullivan. Too bad we havenit our own swimming pool lhint, hintl. Although most of us senior girls worked after school, we did our bestg but comparatively we were overflocked by the juniors ....
