Donald William Barrett “Don” Don Barrett joined our class in the Fifth Form. As soon as the class got to know Don, we knew that we had a jolly new member who we were sure was going to keep us laughing many times during his career at Kingswood with such phrases as, “1 am sorry, sir, I lost my head. His prowess on the gridiron was so much appreciated that whenever he was seen being given a breather on the bench, his avid fans kept a muttering murrur going with the chant of, “We want Don”, and our two hundred and twenty pound boy from Bristol was just the man the team needed. Don went out for the wrestling team and fortunately for his opponents in the unlimited class, he promptly acquired a knee injury. As a result, his winter activities were curtailed and the spring season was spent in jogging around the track. During the summer of 1953, Don joined the Connecticut National Guard. He learned about some of the nice activities of the infantry such as digging ditches, taking care of equipment and hiking for four or five miles on a blazing July afternoon. In Don’s senior year he played an important part as a defensive lineman on Mr. Barrows’ varsity football squad. Despite injuries and his work in the National Guard, which prevented him from playing in a few of the games, Don helped the team tremendously when he was able to play. Don decided to leave his wrestling career and to join the ranks of the “Morning Hoopstcrs during the winter term. Don became a very active member of the business board of the Classbook in his senior year. His effort helped Bob Thompson, the business manager of the Classbook, to have a much easier time of it. Wherever Don goes next year, he knows that the class of “54” wishes him the best of luck. 10
