tlbc Enfielb Ecbo Published at intervals during the school year by the members oj the Enfield Public High School, Thompsonville, Conn. Entered as second-class matter February 21, 1917, at the Post Office at Thompsonville, Conn., under the Act of March 3, 1879. VOL 34 THOMPSONVILLE, CONN., JUNE, 1947 NO. 1 WELCOME (By Joseph Cimino) As president of the class of nineteen hundred forty-seven, I have the privilege of welcoming you to our class night program. With these exercises we are closing one of the happiest and most interesting chapters of our lives. This is one of our last opportunities to meet as a class and to recall those happy moments once more before we part to go our various ways. It is a privilege and a pleasure for us to be here. We hope that you too will enjoy these memories as we, the class of ’47, present our class night program. CLASS HISTORY (By Joyce Dineen) Into my album entitled “The Best Years of My Life”, I re- cently added the last newspaper clipping. It was dated June 18, 1947, and read, “The Enfield High School Class of ’47 Graduates Tomorrow Night”. The insertion of this last clipping was a far cry from that day four years ago when the first clipping was put into the album. This first one was dated September 13, 1943, and read, “School Opens Tomorrow.” It really did open for us and that big, strange building called the Enfield High School, which we had previously gaped at, now became a part of us. Al- though bewildered about it, we were at last in high school, that noble institution erected not only for the purpose of educating us, but also for sparing our parents the misery of having us home all day. We were welcomed with open arms by the faculty and “down-the-nose” smirks by the upperclassmen. However, it wasn’t very long before the class of ’47 started “buzzing”. At the Senior-Freshman Reception, which did a great deal toward “breaking the ice”, the seniors heard some of the talent hidden in our illustrious class in the person of John Brigada, who made his debut at the reception with an unforgettable rendition of the “Ave Maria”.
