VOL. 19 THOMPSONVILLE, CONN., JUNE 1931 NO. 4 ADDRESS OF WELCOME (By Robert Sloane Bromage) Parents, Teachers, Schoolmates, and Friends: On behalf of the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-one it is with great pleasure that 1 welcome you here this evening to enjoy with us our class night exercises. The class night committee and speakers have worked diligently to present to you wholesome entertainment. All activities, past and present will be included in this review of our high school days and we, the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-one hope you will receive from it as much pleasure as we. Please remember that everything spoken here in jest this evening, will be meant only in fun. The class at this time wishes to acknowledge all kind services rendered to us by our dear parents, to whom we owe so much and by the teachers, whose careful guidance has been an inspiration during our happy years at Enfield High. Let me repeat, to all we extend a heartfelt greeting. A HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1931 (By Mary Louise Golden) It was in September of 1927 that this class of 184 boys and girls began its very intimate acquaintance with the Enfield High School, its faculty, traditions, and students. It was a big moment for us to have graduated to the senior high school and, making every effort to live up to the realization that we were growing up, we began the four years which have had so much to do with the moulding of our characters. The class officers, elected during this first year, were president, Robert Bromage; vice-president, Edna Daum; secretary, Alene Bilodeau; treasurer, Douglas Mallard; and historian, John Sullivan, who left in his third year and was re- placed by Mary Golden. Our Freshman year was not marked by any outstanding achievements, but it gave us a foundation for the 8 THE ENFIELD ECHO genuine successes which were to come, and discovered for us those leaders which are found in every group. Our Sophomore year had just begun when we were shocked by the untimely death of one of our number, Muriel Fiedler. We are sorry that these exercises are to be conducted without the pres- ence of the girl who, with her quiet manner and kindly little ways, had won so many friends. A new program inaugurated during our second year was that of permitting each class to submit an assembly to the student body, and the old-fashioned school presented by our class was conducted by an appropriately-dressed school-mistress, in the person of Marion Broege. Perhaps the short pants and large bow tie of Theodore Lockwood, as the naughty school boy, contributed much to the capturing of the prize by the Sophomores. Our Sophomore year, characterized by real study and a broader insight into life, closed with a realization of the sincere affection which we had for this, our high school. We were Juniors when we came back in the autumn of 1929. It was difficult to realize that we were then real upper-classmen, people of importance, with new and greater responsibilities. The first social event of major importance to us was the annual school play, taken from Booth Tarkington’s “Seventeen.” Lockwood, as leading man, enacted his part to perfection, supported by Landry, as the colored and very comical Genesis, and several other mem- bers of the class, who helped to make the play an astounding success. The Junior Prom, our first formal affair, was under the guidance of Bernice Young as hostess and Ted Lockwood as host, and was followed by the operetta, “The Lucky Jade.” Bernice Young and Louis Lebeshevsky deserve to be commended for their performance. The jollity of our Junior year was broken by the resignation, followed by the death, of Miss Gay, since 1923 vice- principal and for more than twenty years head of the Latin de- partment. The memory of her splendid womanhood will remain long in the minds of the students of the Enfield High School. Almost before we had time to realize it, the last step in the ladder of our high school education was before us. As a represen- tative of the class, I can truly say that this has been one of the most delightful years, when we are at the peak of that ladder, looking down. To some of us there is a glorious thrill of having achieved something—to others, the sight is not an attractive one. But, however much or little we have achieved thus far, these years have been invaluable in making us older and wiser, in giving us friendships and happiness, and in proving to ourselves what our make-up really is. The Friday-afternoon hops, the music for which was furnished by Lockwood and his orchestra, paved the way for the Senior Prom, or Christmas Dance. The hostess was Mildred Fuge and the host, William Smith. The play, “Skidding,” was presented on April 10 and Mildred Fuge, appearing in the leading THE ENFIELD ECHO 9 role, gave a delightful performance, while credit must be given to the remarkable talent of Isabel Steele, in the role of a sophisticated, cultured aunt, and to Eleanor Bailes, in her portrayal of a delight- fully sweet, but very wise, mother. Gordon Campbell, Firth McAuley, and Harold Hines were fine in their respective parts. To Bosco, as business manager belongs much credit for the success of the play. Miss Young and Lockwood took the leads remarkably well in the musical comedy, “The Gypsy Rover”, which was given on May 22. The class of 1931 has been well represented in all of our school activities. In athletics, Lakonski has constantly shone, followed closely by Costa, Kelly, Angelica, and Fuge. The ability of these stars was amply proven by the fact that they won the interclass football series in 1928 and the basketball series in 1931. The or- chestra has been greatly improved by the talent of Mary Savage, Dorothy Comstock, Bosco and Lockwood. As a proof of our in- tellectual ability, I offer the number of names which have appeared on the honor roll during the past four years and the literary talent displayed in the high school publication, The Enfield Echo. In a state-wide contest, sponsored by the Connecticut Business Educa- tors’ Association, at Hartford, on March 14 of this year, Evelyn Gaskell won second prize in the typing contest and, in stenography, Mary Fay and Mary Sullivan ranked very high. On Thursday night, we sever our official connection with the school. I do not believe that there is one of us here tonight who does not feel a pang of regret at the realization that we shall not be coming back at the end of three months. It has become such an intimate, friendly place—and we shall go to our work, wherever it may be, made better and more efficient young men and women by these four years in the Enfield High School. CLASS PROPHECY Edith Russell, Dorothy Hebert, Ernest Landry Dorothy — Good evening, Edith. Won’t you sit down and watch the ocean with me? Edith—Good evening, Dotty. Yes, I shall sit down. I think it is fascinat- ing to look at the waves. Hasn’t the sea been smooth this afternoon? Dorothy—Oh Edith, I can’t wait un- til I see my fiance! Do you like my trousseau? Edith—Yes, I think it is exquisite. But your trousseau will not matter to your fiance. Dorothy—Tell me, is your husband still in Paris? Edith—Yes, I am anxious to see him. He had to rush over on business and I wanted to come on a slow trip. I have been looking over magazines about antiques and I came across this advertisement: “ANNUAL FIRE, SMOKE, AND WATER SALE — BOSCO’S DEPARTMENT STORE- COME AND PROFIT BY THE IN- SURANCE COMPANY’S LOSS.” Dorothy—Here comes the captain! Edith—Ernest, in what direction are we moving? Landry—We are moving towards Italy. With my telescope I can see 10 THE ENFIELD ECHO everything that is happening on land. I am proud of it because I invented it. Before Einstein died he said it was the greatest invention of its kind. I can see, night or day, the very minute details of any event. It is so powerful it penetrates the thickest walls. Edith—May I try it? I want to see what is happening in Rome. One of the best hospitals in Rome is under the competent direction of Barbara Kibbe. Oh, I can see her now. Be- cause of the excellent care she gave her patients she now has entire charge of the plant. Her expert die- titian is Effie Hulburt. Even in high school days Effie was a good cook. Landry — I can see I)r. Eleanor Bailes in the same hospital where Barbara Kibbe has charge. Margaret Harris is a very helpful nurse to Dr. Bailes as she tells her patients of her thrilling experiences at Enfield High, especially in Chemistry class. Dorothy—Do you recall how well Bernice Young looked in sport togs when she took the leading part in the “Gypsy Rover?” Now she is the best mountain climber on the world’s rec- ord. Edith—I have been reading a great deal today. Listen to the social items: “Benedict Puchinsky, wealthy sau- sage manufacturer of Iowa, was guest of honor at a banquet given by the Bachelors Club.” Well, isn’t that amusing! Here is an item about some others we know: “The Misses Beatrice Galimberti and Anna Moran have just returned from a trip around the world. While they were away they bought a villa and have sold it at double the original cost. That’s the way to earn money, isn’t it?” Landry—I can see Paris. We cer- tainly make good time, don’t we? Be sure to see the millinery shop in Paris that is run by Margaret Bartley. She always did wear such very striking hats. Edith—Catherine Alaimo is in the diplomatic service of Italy. She is a valuable worker because she can talk Italian and French so fluently. Dorothy—As I look through the telescope I can see a familiar spot. Last time I visited Paris my attention was attracted by a huge sign which read, Campbell Haberdashery.” Upon entering, 1 was greeted by William Smith who is Mr. Campbell’s model. Billie liked the Sir Roger de Coverly style so well that he is trying to per- suade his customers to adopt them. Who do you think was the first in our class to gain the distinction of being a “Mrs.”? Well, it is Mildred Fuge. Can you beat that? She has secured Irene Glista as governess for the little Peases. Landry—Did you know Agnes Al- len is the world champion gum chewer? She has introduced gum chewing in the Olympic games. What do you think Martha Greaves is doing? She is a missionary in China converting the little heathens. Edith—The last time I saw Edna Daum she was dean of a girl’s school in Paris. As I entered she was sitting behind a huge desk surrounded by diplomas. She was devouring a book at the rate of a hundred pages an hour. While she was engaged in this peaceful occupation in rushed six wrathful teachers. They were—Mar- garet Miller, Eva Raffia, Lillian Jen- nings, Dorothy Kelley, John Berosky and Beatrice Cormier. Their class pins were turned upside down to show a sign of distress. Each one was carrying a hat pin between his teeth. They threatened to declare a strike if not granted an increase of fifty cents per year. Miss Daum, very calmly, pressed a button on her desk. The door was thrown open and in stepped Mary Savage, head of a powerful gym squad with her assistant, Louise Tuomala. In a minute, peace was re- stored. Landry — I came across Alleta Snyder and Marion Broege who have not yet married. They are traveling lecturers on the subject, “Why be without a husband”! Edith—Talking about classmates, the last time I was in Harriet Cor- bett’s beauty shop I found Hazel Ber- trand in charge of the shop. Their coiffures are so ingenious that the world coDies them. The other day I came across a mag- azine almost as famous as the Enfield Echo. Eileen Fleming was Editor-in- Chief. There is a ship coming towards us. I see Catherine Cunningham. She is THE ENFIELD ECHO 11 going back to the United States to lecture on Parisien styles. Who ever thought Catherine would lecture after being so demure in her school days? Dorothy—I see we are coming in sight of Spain. Did you know Flor- ence Packer and Dorothy Oliver are the successful proprietors of the “Black and Gold Tea Room”? They have engaged Edward O’Connor’s snappy jazz orchestra for dancing. I would recommend the “Black and Gold Tea Room” to any who would like to spend an enjoyable evening in a very romantic atmosphere. Landry—I discovered that Norman Anderson owns a large cattle ranch. Louis Gates and Mike Ryder are em- ployed by Mr. Anderson as cow punchers. Louis and Earl are inter- rupted in their frequent naps by the noise of the restless cattle. By the way did you know that Lawrence White owns one of the larg- est mills in Warehouse Point? He has, as his able assistants, Evelyn Beck and Meta Schneider. He al- ways went over in a big way with the women. Edith—So this is Madrid. Today an elaborate wedding is in progress, the social event of the year. Elizabeth Welch is marrying a wealthy man. The ceremony is performed in a beau- tiful sunken garden with fountains, terraces and very rare flowers. It is reported that the President and his wife are witnessing the marriage. At the same time an entirely differ- ent kind of wedding is taking place. You remember Dorothy Comstock flit- tered from one boy to another until we thought she would be an old maid. But Dorothy always took things good- naturedly and it didn’t worry her. Now you see that airplane above the clouds; Dorothy is having her mar- riage vows right over Elizabeth’s. Dorothy—Isn’t that great, two wed- dings in the same day! Oh! there is that tooth bothering me again. I only wish I were in New York. John Lakonski is a dentist there, and is known as the “Painless Dentist.” On my last enioyable trip to Dr. Lakon- ski’s office I was very much surprised to see another old classmate, Leona Provost who is his assistant. What do you know? John Fuge and Robert Bromage have recently opened “The Truthful but Never Failing Law Office.” (Fuge stretches the truth and Bromage swears to it). I want to tell you about Harold Hines. He has just secured a patent on his new fire alarm invention. The principle of the invention being sim- ilar to the Tom Carr Burglar Alarm. Landry—The radio announced to- day that the Philadelphia Athletics are playing the New York Yankees. James Costa is playing first base. Sebastian Angelica is pitcher. It is a no hit, no run game. Edith—The last time I visited Royal Art Gallery in Madrid, I stood spell- bound before a masterpiece, a com- posite portrait, painted by Betty Ringwald and Alene Bilodeau. The facial expression was designed by Alene and the figure sketched by Betty. Dorothy — Recently while visiting one of our largest Radio Broadcasting studios I was very much surprised to see Edward McHugh as chief an- nouncer. He was introducing a young man whom he called “The Singing Farmer,” it was none other than Robert Merriman! Landry—I listened the other night to hear Edward McHugh announce the program. He said that the next program was the Kuku Hour, featur- ing Mrs. Pennyfeather, impersonated by Isabel Steele. Can you imagine! Edith—Louis Lebeshevsky is very successful in the television given over the telephone. The girls call Louis in order to see him. Gladys Desso calls more often than the rest, I hear. Dorothy—Douglas Mallard is try- ing to introduce Socialistic move- ments in Thompsonville. But he has met with great disapproval by the staunch conservatives of that com- munity. Mary Fay is his fiery soap box orator so he has at least one staunch supporter. Landry — Can you see the bull fight? There is Edna Fahey who is one of the most enthusiastic specta- tors. It is rumored that she has fallen in love with the toreador. Why he looks like Chester Nowak! It is Chester! Let’s look over the crowd. There is Joseph Noreika with his thumbs turned down. What caused his sudden dislike for Chester? Oh! Class of 1931 THE ENFIELD ECHO 13 I know. They are both candidates for the Presidency of Spain. Dorothy — Margaret Bridge and Margaret Lynch are members of the “Lockwood Follies.” They are known as the “Peggy Twins” and have gained renowned popularity in Mr. Theodore Lockwood’s recent musical comedy, “Cornbeef and Roses.” Robert Kelly is the newly appointed manager of the most popular of all Atlantic and Pacific stores located on the corner of 10th Avenue and 32nd Street, Scitico, Connecticut, U. S. A. Leslie Prentice and John Jackowicz having lost their money in the recent crash have become very capable assist- ants to Mr. Kelly. Edith—I came across a palmist last year who is known throughout Europe as one who will foretell the past, pres- ent, and future. Before she had gone far in reading my palm I was aston- ished at her knowledge of my life. Later I saw that it was Mary Abbe. A little while ago the Hoboes Union were having a lively meeting insti- gated by Charles Osborne who was delivering a fiery address. His audi- ence showed its appreciation by shout- ing, “When do we eat?” Landry—Sterling Percival, now a great aviator, is just bringing Anth- ony Dzwonkus and Edwin Wolodko to a big business meeting at the Ritz Cafe in New York, owned by Florence Luke. Marion Pawelcik and Evelyn Zawada are to do a specialty dance for the occasion. Frances Piorek, the first woman governor of Connecticut, has appoint- ed Firth McAuley as head of the Police Commission. He was so well disciplined in old Enfield. Dorothy—Anna Kertenis and Lucia Olivieri are employed by one of the largest insurance companies. They are competing with the New York, New Plaven and Hartford Railroad Company by riding to work on a bicycle. They claim that this means of transportation has proven to be more economical and faster than any other. Helen Soboleski has opened an ex- clusive ladies’ apparel shop on 5th Avenue, New York. Letitia Casing- hino is Miss Soboleski’s capable mo- diste. She has won the reputation of bringing out a new mode every day. Edith—I)o you realize Mary Golden is known as the most successful farm- erette in the United States? She is going to exhibit chickens that can do the cake walk. Guess where I saw Agnes Pianka? She was taking dancing lessons from the head master, Robert Stoughton. Bob is conducting a dancing school for fat people. The last time I visited Detroit I saw Evelyn Gaskell typing for Mr. Henry Ford’s son. He has said that she is the greatest typist ever in his employ. May Sullivan is private sec- retary for John D. Rockerfeller, Jr. When she isn’t busy, she distributes dimes to the children. I felt quite young when she gave me ten cents. Landry—The last time I attended a football game, Joseph Corbett and Dominic McCann were star half- backs for the Providence Steamrol- lers. Helen Zyck is the first person to fly over the Atlantic Ocean in a glider. When she arrived she found that her twin sister Sally had re- ceived all the honors and glory. Stephen Kadidus, American Ambas- sador to Spain, received them. Dorothy—Armand Keller and Roy Jandreau are partners in the Keller and Jandreau Construction Co. They have invented a hammer which ab- solutely refuses to hit the fingers. They would have found this new de- vice very useful back in old Enfield when they were on all the Property Committees. Stella Albert is the first woman ever admitted to the faculty of Yale University. Miss Albert has proven to be very popular with the students. She allows refreshments at all times and entertains the students by performing hand springs and other acrobatic stunts. Edith—Pm so glad to hear about our old friends. Have you spoken of all of them? Landry—Yes, I think so. It’s about time I went upstairs to see how the pilot is. Dorothy—Come in Edith. We better see what the rest of the crowd are doing. All say goodnight. 14 THE ENFIELD ECHO CLASS JINGLES (By Betty Ringwald and Harold J. Hines) We have gathered here together To laugh a little while, For all the days of toil we’ve spent We deserve a little smile. And so for your amusement We’ve written each a line; We didn’t mean to hurt you, We really think you’re fine. Stella Albert Screeching, screaming noises, Your brain is in a whirl; It’s really not a cyclone; It’s Stella—What a girl! Robert Bromage “Talking to the girl friends,” Says Robert roguishly, “Is to me far more important Than ‘Math’ or Chemistry.” Agnes Allen You’ve heard of Polly Moran, Joe Brown and all the rest, But for being funny Our “Billie” is the best. Gordon Campbell Though a girl is nice as can be She gets an icy stare, We wonder why you do it? Come tell us. Is it fair? Betty Ringwald Clever with her pen, More clever with her brush, Is our classmate, Betty— Who’s never in a rush. John Fuge John is ,iust a “regular guy” Full of joy and laughter, He’ll live and take his fun today Let tomorrow’s cares come after. Margaret Bartley Burnished waves all golden, Clustered here and there; What are we describing? Why—Margaret Bartley’s hair. Harold Hines If any boy should wish to know Just what to wear and when, Call upon your classmate, Harold; He’s one of our well dressed men. Eleanor Bailes “When Irish Eyes are Smiling”— There’s a song that goes that way; But when your eyes are smiling Why, they steal our hearts away. John Jackowicz John is an orator, His delivery is so rare; Although we’d like to challenge him, We reallv wouldn’t dare. Alene Bilodeau Alene is fond of painting, And at this art does well, Some day she may be famous— Who knows?—One just can’t tell. Edward O’Connor When it comes to drumming Eddie sure is there, For when he starts “jazzing” Few with him compare. Marion Broege There’s only one boy in the world, For a certain girl we know; We think his name is Gordon, But don’t tell him we said so. William Smith When you have graduated Bill We know you won’t be blue, Because the girl you like so well Is graduating too. Dorothy Comstock Dottie is the nicest girl That ever walked this earth; Just ask her million boy friends, They surely know her worth. Robert Stoughton Bob talks so much in Civics class, He has “Somebody” dizzy, And who can he be talking to?— Well, guess. Of course, it’s “Izzy.” Evelyn Beck “All that glitters is not gold,” A maxim tried and true. Because though you don’t glitter, There’s solid gold in you. THE ENFIELD ECHO 15 Edna Daum Edna is a busy girl— A wonderful student too, So, Edna, keep up the good work And here’s good luck to you! Firth McAuley Your curls are of the type . That brave all winds and showers; Now, we’re not razzing you, But wish that they were ours. Mary Fay Mary is a student Of the ideal type you see; So take a good look at her, They’re as rare as they can be. Norman Anderson If our dear Norman should get lost, We know we wouldn’t look— (Of all the places in the world), Behind his Civics book. Mildred F’uge Mildred is so often late, She never comes too soon; Sometimes she comes at 9 o’clock, But mostly it is noon. James Costa Jimmie is an athlete A “darn good one” at that— Just try and watch the ball, When Jimmie has the bat. Evelyn Gaskell Evelyn’s such a typist, She even got a prize; But we sometimes think they gave it— To a pair of big brown eyes. Armand Keller You’ve heard of Fanchon Marco, Well, he’s that and even more— In fact—he’s like a fairy, When he glides across the floor. May Golden May raises chickens;. They’re her pride and joys; We wonder if she feeds them The line she feeds the boys. Robert Kelley You heard the song “Girl Trouble,” Well, he’s sure got it bad; But his “cases” never last long , And it makes us all feel sad. Anne Moran Anne likes “high opera,” She thinks jazz quite passee, Her reasons we don’t question, You see, we’ve heard her play. Louis Lebeshevsky If the “Echo’s” been a grand suc- cess, The credit goes to you, For the work you’ve done in sell- ing it And you got the money, too. Florence Packer Hair of gold, Eyes of blue, Men take a look— God’s gift to you. FMward McHugh Eddie is good-looking, He’s well built and he’s tall; How did he get that way? Why—playing basketball. Marian Pawelcik Someone’s celebrating; Someone is to blame For all the fuss in ’26; Now, please, don’t tell the name. Robert Merriman We all know Rudy Vallee, We think his voice quite sweet, But when Merriman starts to sing Poor Rudy can’t compete. Isabel Steele You run and dance and laugh and sing, And then sometimes you walk; But we wonder what would happen if, Our “Izzy” couldn’t talk. Sterling Percival “Sterling” is a brand of silver But the Percival brand is red; Well—if you don’t believe us, Just look at Sterling’s head. May Sullivan May’s going to be a teacher, And what a one she’ll make; We know that all the pupils Will surely get a “break.” Leslie Prentice Leslie’s thoughts are not for books Nor anything they suggest; But upon some moonlit eve, He knows his stuff, I guess. 16 THE ENFIELD ECHO Catherine Cunningham Catherine is a real nice girl She’ll climax some man’s fate, But when Gabriel blows that trumpet We’re afraid that she’ll be late. Earl Ryder Earl may not be brilliant When it comes to rules; But when you mention sports He’s prepared to meet all schools. Gladys Desso A little girl with dark brown eyes, Gladys is her name, And since she’s met a certain boy She hasn’t been the same. Nicholas Bosco When Nick does anything, It’s done in a big, big way; Just consider how he managed This year’s “High School Play.” Martha Greaves There’s a new peril on the street, We hear of it near and far; We’re very careful when we meet, Martha in that car. Benedict Puchinsky When you think someone’s sawing wood Or into granite boring— You mustn’t be a bit disturbed, ’Cause it’s only Benny snoring. Barbara Kibbe Sweet, serene, and quiet You never make a noise; But you’re a deadly weapon To poor defenseless boys. Ernest Landry Ernie plays the piano, For him it never balks; Sometimes it even begs; But most times it just talks. Helen Soboleski Helen is a little girl Who dresses up to date; There’s nothing more to say, Except that she’s first rate. John Lakonski Johnny, you’re the boy, Who’s famous for his grins; But you’re such a fine athlete, It’s too bad you weren’t twins. Dorothy Hebert Dottie is a vamp, And uses all her wiles, On “children” unacquainted With “Come Hither” smiles. Theodore Lockwood “Teddie” plays a saxophone, He makes it moan and squeal; Some people call it music We call it “Sax Appeal.” Margaret Miller Basketball is the hobby Of many in our class; We have another victim, A fair and sturdy lass. Sebastian Angelica Sebastian has made quite a name In baseball we all know; To see him knock a home run Is worth the price of a show. Helen Zyck Helen can paint a picture, Of anything you name; We know some day we’ll find her In the Hall of Fame. Chester Novak Chester is a farmer boy And quite a chemist, too; He can perform most any task You’d like to have him do. Sally Zyck Sally is so quiet, She hasn’t much to say; She really isn’t sulky, It’s just her natural way. Louis Gates “Slow-motion” Louis Should be his name; And as a trackman He’d ne’er win fame. Edna Fahey A quiet miss we have with us As quiet as can be; ’Twill not take you long to guess That Edna Fahey is she. Rov Jandreau Yes. Roy is a dancer; He knows a clever step, Rut is it his line That’s given him his “rep”?

THE ENFIELD ECHO 37 CLASS JINGLES (Continued from Tage 16) Agnes Pianka All of the shades of rainbow, Red and green and blue, Are reflected in your face, When someone looks at you.

At that she spends her day; Now we know how she developed That very charming way. Douglas Mallard Doug is quite an adept In mixing H- SO4— As well as a solution That’s to be used in our next war. Dorothy Kelley Fiery red hair Neat and petite— Always on time, Never out of her seat.

Bernice Young She has jet black hair. Her brown eyes flashing; A charming voice And styles most dashing. John Berozsky Next we have Berozskv Who hails from a nearby “ville”; They say that on Sunday He’s dressed “fit to kill.” Eileen Fleming Another bashful miss have we Who never says a word; Even if she’s spoken to Her voice is scarcely heard. Charles Osborn Osborn is a farmer lad, As you already know; He would go both near and far To put his hens in a show. Ettie Hulburt Next in line is Effie, Who hails from Somers town; Her luscious chicken sandwiches, Have won for her renown. Edith Russell “Russell” by name But not by nature— Is this girl Of medium stature. Beatrice Galimberti Now we come to Beatrice Who never talks or flirts, And from the task before her, We’ve found she never shirks. Anthony Dzwonkus “Slow but Sure” Is Anthony’s motto, When he starts to recite In a “voce” most “sotto.” Dorothy Oliver Who’s that hurrying about Chatting to everyone? Why, it’s Dorothy Oliver, Who’s chucked so full of fun. Leona Provost A brand new friend, A good student, We like her; Who wouldn’t? Louise Toumala Louise’s hair is never curled, It’s always long and straight: Why not pin it up, Louise, And be right up to date? 38 THE ENFIELD ECHO Lawrence White Lawrence comes from Warehouse Point And is really very shy, If a girl e’er spoke to him We fear, he’d fly to the sky. Mary Savage Sweet strains of music Waft the air— As Mary plays A selection rare. Margaret Bridge A very congenial lass is she This girl with the titian hair; Not very quiet, but very sweet And always playing fair.

Beatrice Cormier “Silence is golden,” Beatrice believes; But we will miss her When she leaves. Letitia Casinghino A little whispering, Without teacher’s permission, Seems to be— Letitia’s ambition. Margaret Harris Peg is quite attractive And has a pretty smile; Does she roll her blue eyes Some “dapper Dan” to beguile ?

Margaret Lynch We’ve a girl in our class Margaret is her name, Reporting for the paper Has won for her great fame.

Meta Schneider Quiet, unassuming Is this girl of whom I speak, And I’m sure you’ll agree She is very neat.

Alleta Snyder Alleta is quite a vamp As you have already seen; We wonder how long ’twill be ’Fore she’s on the silver screen. Edward Wolodko Now Eddie seems so very shy, But do not judge by looks, For all of Eddie’s knowledge— Wasn’t gathered from books. Mary Abbe “Don’t mix business and pleasure,” Is our Mary’s rule, And so she meets the “boy friend” Outside, and not in school. Joseph Corbett Joseph is a “steno,” His equal you’ll ne’er find, ’Cause when it comes to speed He leaves us all behind. Catherine Alaimo Like all the other Seniors She studies night and day, And though she’s busy with her work She has a lot to say. Anna Kertinis Of all the things I’ve heard One thing is true— The Sphinx is a “chatter-box,” Compared to you.

She’s our life saver. Catherine Alaimo...........Hair Pins Catherine has such lovely hair, and it’s always pinned up so neat. I wonder if she’d take it down and give us all a treat? Margaret Bartley Pamphlet on “How to Shrink” Peggy Bartley has grown quite tall also good-looking so we think! Now Peggy in case you find yourself too tall, here’s an idea on how to shrink. Evelyn Beck Book on “How to Get My Man” Evelyn is so quiet and never uses her eyes on boys. We hope this book on “How to Get My Man” will put her wise. Lillian Jennings The old, old saying, “Children should be seen and not heard,” Is followed by Lillian ’Cause she never says a word. Frances Piorek She excels in her studies, She’s very, very neat— There’s none in this class Whom Frances can not beat. Now our tale is ended As are the days spent here; We’ll miss our old surroundings We’ll miss our friends so dear. We’ll think of all the laughter The jests, the teasing done, But won’t you please remember ’Twas only said in fun? Hazel Bertrand.................Hammer Hazel is a heart-breaker of quite a high degree. In case you come across a stubborn heart use this little hammer with ease. Letitia Casinghino...Soothing Syrup Letty always disagrees with our ideas on simple things. May- be this soothing syrup will help to calm her down. Harriet Corbett................Kitten It’s a custom for an old maid to keep a cat, they say. But to Harriet we give this tiny kitten, for she’s only a “little” maid, after all. Joseph Corbett...................Girl My! O my, how Joe does blush if anything wearing a “skirt” should speak to him. We hope this girl will overcome his shy- ness. Beatrice Cormier.................Comb Bee is always asking someone for a comb. Here’s one we hope she’ll keep and call her own. Catherine Cunningham______Box of Pep Catherine is so easy-going. We’d admire to see her step. So just to please us Catherine, won’t you each morn, eat some Pep? Edna Fahey..............Lawyer’s Son When Edna gets a fellow, he’ll have to be dignified and miss fun. So the best we can do, is give her a Lawyer’s Son. Eileen Fleming “The World” tied with a pink ribbon Our Eileen doesn’t want much she says, she only wants the world tied up with a pink ribbon handed to her. That’s all! Mildred Fuge..........Sweet Pea Seeds Mildred is a cute little girl and what do you suppose she loves? Sweet Pease! Of course, we know, so we hope she grows many flowers with these seeds in her garden back home. 40 THE ENFIELD ECHO Evelyn Gaskell.....................Lux Soap Ninety-seven movie stars out of a hundred use Lux Soap.

Such scrumptious things makes heads “big” you know. Therefore a derrick Teddy badly needs. Florence Luke............A Left Hand One hand driving is bad they say, especially out Somers way. So we give this extra left hand to Flo. So “Lefty” won’t have to drive in low. Margaret Lynch...................Key Door keys are hard to keep. Climbing through windows is rather undignified to leap. So to Margaret we give this skeleton key. To open doors when home from a spree. Dominic McCann............Yeast Cake Dominic is so very small, it’s a wonder he’s to be seen at all.

ADVICE TO UNDERGRADUATES (By James Louis Costa) Now that the time is rapidly approaching when we shall aban- don the halls of Old Enfield, I take this opportunity to give a few parting words of advice to those unscrupulous individuals who have the nerve to call themselves students of this institution. Therefore: Juniors, successors to our dynasty in Room 26, 1 warn you not to allow the teachers to maintain any discipline over you. Don’t wear yourself out by doing tedious homework or any other unpleasant task which is assigned to you. When the warm days present themselves remain out of school and go swimming whenever you please. The water feels better during school hours. In case any teacher should muster up enough courage to question you, just remind her you are a Senior and 1 assure you that you will escape unscathed. Furthermore, please continue the hereditary habit of throw- ing paper and various other sorts of trash on the sacred floor of Room 26. Try to acquire the combined support of the bus students in this pastime and it will be a great success. Next in line are the ignorant Sophomores. As a rule Sopho- mores are dumb, but this year’s representation of that class was dumber than any that ever existed. You were not far superior to early barbarians and your respect for your superiors was exceed- ingly low. You should possess, in your humble brains, the knowl- 46 THE ENFIELD ECHO edge that Seniors are to be obeyed and respected. See to it that they are in the future. Moreover, you should have a larger delegation of candidates striving to gain berths on the various athletic teams. Your supply of good athletes is plentiful as has been shown by your wonderful record in inter-class circles. Why not send them out for posts on the varsity squads, thereby increasing the efficiency of the teams? Now I will refer to the innocent little Freshmen. In fact, you were too innocent this year. You crashed into peace abiding Sen- iors, trampled on their feet, and committed many other unforgiv- able crimes. You were not punished for these offenses however, because of the superficial character of us Seniors. We didn’t wish to lower our dignity by striking such poor little defenseless imps. Next year, however, you will be sophomores and will (fare) badly if your actions are not reformed. Unfortunately the initiation of Freshmen classes has been overlooked for the past two years. The neglecting of this duty has turned out very unfavorable. Freshmen, seeing that they can re- buke the Seniors without being punished, become bolder as the year forges ahead. Therefore Freshmen, or rather future Sopho- mores, it will be your duty to perform this pleasing task next year. Make up for its laxity in recent years by giving the incoming Fresh- men a triple dose. Underclassmen, our sojourn with you was a very pleasant one and we thank you for the whole-hearted support you have given us in all our enterprises. Always abide by the Code of Ethics and you will undoubtedly reach the high standards that we, the class of 1931, have attained. RESPONSE FOR THE UNDERGRADUATES (By Carlo Angelica, President of Junior Class) Honorable Faculty, Friends, Fellow Undergraduates, and most conceited Seniors: While listening to your well chosen words of advice, both true and false, but mostly false; I feel it my duty not to let them pass unchallenged. You advised the Juniors to throw papers on the floor in room twenty-six. This we will follow willingly but as for the lunch, we will eat that. Do you realize that in the eyes of the faculty and underclass- men you Seniors were dear little cherubs, who were so quiet in room twenty-six, that even the mice had nothing over you. The Senior girls were a great help in maintaining this quietness by wearing rubber heels. Thou sleepy Seniors! Awaken to the fact that the Junior class has been enjoying free discipline for the last three years! THE ENFIELD ECHO 47 Further, in regard to the Sophomores. My friend stated that they were dumb. Who is to blame for this? Why the Seniors of course! Didn’t the Sophomores try to imitate the Seniors? We Juniors were the ones to save them from the pitfall they were headed for. The Sophomores have asked me to tell you that they will obey and respect the future Seniors because said Seniors will be the first respectful and dignified class to ever have entered the portals of dear Enfield. Speaking of sports, didn’t the majority of the varsity basket- ball men come from the Sophomore class? Let us now take the defense for that exceptionally good class— the Freshmen. My friend stated that they were imps and very defenseless. Do you think for one minute that the Freshmen crashed into your sanctum and trampled on your feet accidentally? Indeed not! This was done for two reasons; first—your pedes were so small that it was impossible to go by without trampling on them. Second: They wanted to see what backbone you Seniors pos- sessed. When the Freshmen made the remarkable discovery that you lacked it, they immediately discontinued such tactics, not wish- ing to hurt defenseless people. In closing, let me talk in a more serious vein. After all, Seniors, we are sorry to lose you, for you have been a good and worthy class. We sincerely accept your advice and will strive to remedy our shortcomings. We hope you will not forget how the classes of ’34, ’33 and ’32 have worked with you. We wish you the best of luck in the future and hope you will succeed in all your future ventures. CLASS WILL (By Douglas H. Mallard) Friends, Teachers, and Schoolmates: I have assembled you here this evening to listen to the Last Will and Testament of the departing illustrious class of 1931. Wherein we have bestowed our priceless possessions and privileges to our underclassmates as we find that we no longer need them. With full control over our brilliant intellects and in complete possession of our common sense we hereby proclaim and publish this to be our last Will and Testament, revoking and declaring null all wills and promises made by us at any previous time. First—We do request beforehand that mortuary exercises be conducted by our Principal and long-to-be-remembered Faculty, and desire that the services should reflect all the grandeur and stateliness that was ours. Second—We give, devise and bequeath as follows: 48 THE ENFIELD ECHO Item—To Mr. Lee, our Principal, our genuine affection and everlasting gratitude. Item—To the Faculty, a well deserved rest and an opportunity to thoroughly digest all new theories and explanations discovered by us during our stay at Enfield, advising that discretion be used in teaching them to the numb-skulled Juniors. Item—To our room teacher, Mr. Reynolds, our sincere friend- ship and an apology for our sometimes orderly behavior. Item—To the Junior Class our Senior dignity, advising that they cast aside their silliness and childishness and assume said dignity. Item—Altho we are loathe to part with them, we make the following bequests in good faith, trusting that their worth will be appreciated. First—To the school all words coined by us and all startling information discovered by Kelly in Chemistry. Second—To the present and future classes of Enfield High School, the gift of gab, bluff and loud tones of Bromage. We desire that this bequest be divided into three parts, one each for the Freshman, Sophomore and Junior classes, with a portion to be left in trust for all future classes for “they may come and they may go, but the supply goes on forever.” Third—To the office we leave a new supply of late slips to make up the shortage caused by Armand Keller. Fourth—To the Juniors, Sophomores, or Freshmen, the great ability and fame obtained by the champion Senior Basketball Team, hoping that none of the said classes think they can ever equal us. Fifth—We leave McHugh’s basketball fame to Mitchell, hop- ing that he can successfully fill the shoes of this worthy Senior. Sixth—To Edward Olschafski and Rita Des Rosiers we leave the privilege taken by Dorothy Comstock and Russell Smith to walk the streets during noon hour. Seventh—To anyone in any class we leave the power of Mary Golden to extract money from the boys for poppies, candy-boxes, tickets and other miscellaneous. We hereby appoint Mr. Lee, our beloved Principal, sole execu- tor of this, our last Will and Testament. In witness thereof, we the class of 1931 set our hand and seal this twenty second day of June, Anno Domini, nineteen hundred and thirty-one. DOUGLAS H. MALLARD. Witnesses: MARION STORRS J.
