Mr. H. G. Boren superanfendem of Hubbard Schools 1925 - 1944 Because the class of '45 has spent eleven of the twelve years that we have been in school under Mr. Boren's direction, we wish to honor him by dedicat- ing this page of our annual to him. Now that the time for us to be graduated has come, we know that we did not always study as hard as he would have liked, maybe we didn't always behave as he thought we should, however, we feel that he was sympa- thetic toward us in all our school activities. We shall not forget this interest in us, and it will be our desire to try to live up to his expectations for us. Mr. Boren came to Hubbard in i925 as prin- cipal of the high school and one year later, upon the resignation of Mr. A. E. Robinson, was elected to the superintendency. Mr. Boren resigned in August, I944, because of ill health, and his death occurred March 26, l945.

In The Service December 7, 1941 brought many changes to the world and a rude awakening to our country. From that memorable date until the end of the war, our boys have been leaving and will continue to leave our high school to take their place in the fighting front. The class of 1945 has lost its share of boys also. The first of our boys to leave the class was Robert St. John, who enlisted in the Navy and left school on October 15, 1942. Dave Donahue followed and left school on April 4, 1943, to enlist in the Navy also The summer of 1943 saw the vacationing class lose two more boys, Bud McClelland and Paul Gratz both went to the Navy. The class of 1945 was in its junior year now, and the school year of 1943-44 saw two more of the class leave, the Navy had the preference again when Francis Womer left on October 15, 1943 and Dale Griffin on January 13, 1944. No one left the class the rest of the 1943-44 school year. This year was a short one for some of the boys and a fond recollection for others. Warren Black, one of the prize athletes of the class, left us to go to the Navy on August 7, 1944. ln our senior year Alfred Hutchenson enlisted in the Merchant Marine and left school on November 10, 1944, Art Hatch enlisted in the Navy and left school on November 29, 1944, Al Carano enlisted in the Navy and left school on December 8, 1944, Joe Mariotti enlisted in the Marines and left school on December 27, 1944, and Andrew Nichohlas was inducted January 29, 1945. And so it goes with many more leaving after this story of the war years of the class of 1945 has been written. The class of 1945 will long remember and hold her head up high with pride in the boys who have left to go into the service of their Country. . five
