E92 il' i X Fon' X .Nil L lflx vw G 1 I WOWWY ....-.- L,,Akr xy mn ' ,Qi N 'N After a successful 1955-1956 season, Hartford Tech came back to try to equal its 1955-1956 record. After losing the first two games, because of a late start at practice, they came back to win two games straight from Vinal Tech and Simsbury High School. The fifth game was a real thriller, but Tech lost 8-7 to Vinal Tech in a game that went into over time play. The next two games were lost by scores of 9-3 and 7-1. After these two loses Tech scored two more victories, 1st over E. C. Goodwin Tech, that game went twelve innings before Hartford Tech won 4-3. The second game with Goodwin went overtime with Hartford Tech winning 6-3 to complete a season of four wins and five loses. The returning lettermen that played in the 57 season were Stanley Kozak, the teams leading hurler, who won four games for Tech, Dennis Bogino, good second basemen with a sharp bathing eye, along with Joseph Urbanowski, short stop. These two boys had the fastest and more colorful double play combination than any school that Tech played. John Ciak, a frantic little catcher, who had also played the two previous years had the highest batting average 313. John was captain of the 57 team and also a spark plug for the rest of the team. He came through in fine style as the team's top hitter. Under class- men to return were Robert Brule, who can either play the outfield or catch, Kenneth Tomany, a third basemen, Joseph Suggs a hard running left fielder. Promising rookies who played were Robert Nadler and John Thomas. 39 Q1Dnl Z - t -3- l in-s lll Pi ' -fit i l 0 , oil v-can -rp -five Ut L I 4 an-1-ex. gag an' A 'acl' -4 , 1 5 n v- is ..

iw QW EVENING IN PARIS Semi-Formal Dance The annual semi-formal, titled Evening in Paris, this year, was held Friday evening, February 14 from 8:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. The attendance was such that extra tables and chairs had to be moved in. The music was furnished by the Phil Mooney Quartet. The gym was beautifully decorated in blue and silver, portraying a view of Paris by moonlight, the tables and chairs set along streets bearing French street names. Refreshments were served cabaret style in the auditorium. The high point of the evening was the selection of king and queen. All in attendance ioined in a grand march from which ten girls and ten boys were selected by the faculty. The selections were based on: popularity, attractiveness and contribution to the school. Crowns of sliver, with numbers one to ten, were placed on the heads of the candidates. They marched around the floor to enable the students and their escorts to make choice and mark ballots as to their preference of king and queen. The result of the vote was: Margaret Pacholski as Queen and Robert Brule as King. The four runners up making the Court were: Nettie DeGroat, Brenda Willey, Patricia Roth- hammer and Mary-Lee Nichols as attendants to the Queen and Joseph DuPont, Frank Lombardo, Robert Proteau, James Hems, were escorts to the King. The court escorted the King and Queen to the stage, where Mr. Sinnamon, our director, did the official crowning. From here the King and Queen proceeded to mount the stairs into the clouds to their throne, as the stars blinked behind them. The dance was a great success, thanks to the committees of students and their faculty advisors for all of the thought and work put into the prepara- tions. The attendance by so many of the students and their friends added greatly to the success. We hope that all future dances and particularly semi-formals at Hartford Tech will be equally success- ful. yo be 3 1.4 FJ? ,v. ,A iii ,J . iw , il E i Si L 2 if
