The Motivating Force The city of New London is indebted to the outstanding efforts of Dr. john C. Albohm, the Superintendent of Schools. With a keen interest in youth, Dr. Albohm has been the motivating force behind the long and arduous struggle to modernize our educational system. His superior educational background has enabled him to fill his difhcult position, which involves the super- vision and direction of all the public schools and their personnel. He is also the chief executive of the Board of Education and an active civic leader. Working with the Board to afford the students of greater New London with the best possible education - at the least possible expense to the taxpayers - Dr. Albohm has gone a long way toward reaching this goal. The completion of a central high school in New London has given us a high school second to none in the state. In athletics, journalism, music, art, and other extra-curricular activities, as well as scholastics, New London High has already set precedents for future classes. With its modern facilities and flexible curricula, it offers a well- rounded education to all its students. DR. JOHN C. ALBOHM Superintendent of Schools EUNICE T.

Our Principal Promotes Progress Thank you, Mr. Holland, - a familiar remark over the P.A. system, but very appropriate. In two short years, the leadership of our Principal, Mr. Bertram H. Holland, has done more to improve New London High School, than has any other single factor. A real progressive, Mr. Holland has created a minor revolution in putting us on the ball. He has accomplished this result through tireless zeal and resourcefulness, plus the advantage of an extensive education. But this year, his versatile ability was really tested. The Addition to the school eliminated the problem of over- crowded classrooms, but in its place appeared many new difficulties which inevitably face a rapidly expanding stu- dent body. Like a great leader, confident in himself, his followers, and his cause, he surmounted these obstacles. Trial and error, with the eventual elimination of the error, together with a strong desire to improve, and a keen interest in his work, have keynoted his success, -- and ours. BERTRAM H. HOLLAND Principal This is Mr. Small speaking. Is the familiar voice of Carlton F. Small, as heard so often over our P.A. system. Mr. Small holds the two positions of Assistant Principal and Dean of Boys. His appointment as Assistant Principal came last year, and since then he has become Mr. Holland's right-hand man. In the many problems that come his way, Mr. Small treats all in a fair and impartial manner, and shows a personal interest in the problems of each individual. With the number of college applicants increasing, the job of guidance has become more demanding, yet with a deep sense of re- sponsibility, Mr. Small has met this challenge, placing many of our graduates in the college of their choice, and helping those in financial need to find funds for further education. 7 CARLTON F. SMALL '.7 ting Assistant Principal and Dean of Boys Known around the high school for his working face, the Assistant Dean of Boys, William L. Foye, is really a nice fellow. A naval fighter pilot during World War II, he spent four years in the service. His duties are many and varied, including discipline, teaching, and sponsorship of the junior class. Always ready with a helping hand, his motto is preventatism rather than punishment. At all the teams' games, at all the school's dances, at all our assemblies, Mr. Foye may be seen: as most students say, He's not missing a thing. His real concern is helping youngsters grow up and accept responsibility. In each case he tries to get at the root of the difficulty in order to find the best solution, and advise accordingly. ing WILLIAM L. FOYE Assistant Dean of Boys 16
