ZM6 ll XSL? Four years ago we entered the portals of Hartford Regional Tech- nical School, a system of education quite different from the grammar schools and junior highs we had just left. Boy! these shops were sumpin! This was the real thing, not just wood work and book cases. In about a month we were adjusted, we learned the ropes and be- fore we knew it, it was time for the annual outing and the end of the school year. ln our Sophomore year we found we were eligible for varsity sports. This year our Beauty Culture girls joined us and we took a very active part in intramural sports. In the Junior year we were members of the student patrol and SAA committees. Wes Swanson was elected president of the Student Activities Association and Connie Bradley was elected secretary, an office later filled, in the senior year, by Carol Lombardo, when Connie left. The Senior Class officers were elected as follows: Bob Proteau, President, Joe Costello, Vice-president, Dick Chasse, Treasurer, Helen Ray, Secretary. What work there was to do! Committees were formed for the year book, senior banquet and on and on. We had a swell time at Hatford Regional Tech and we shall miss it. Uwe f - i N - A ' X
