In your Echo are the friends, classmates, and teachers with whom you have been more or less closely associated. There have been moments of happiness and joy, heartbreak and disappointment, pleasure and pain. Occasionally a poignant scene appears, but in the over-all book, most of the incidents recorded are pleasant. In the years to come, as you associate the teachers with the subjects taught, the students with the classes, the teams with the games, the dances and the clubs and other extra-curricular activities with the people you know, you will capture again those moments when knowledge mixed with integrity and fun gave you the firm foundation upon which you base your life. The events perpetuated in this book happen every year at Enfield, but even though they do, these particular events are very special, because you were here, and the people who participated in them are the people you know. Relive these hours at your leisure. 4 Knowledge and Integrity are the Recipe for Success GEORGE PARfi President’s Message This year of 1957 marks the end of four years of refining and prepa- ration at Enfield Higfi School. Some of us have been readied to step into the world of business; others will go to schools of higher learning, and still others will enter the service of our country as members of the Armed Forces. With the help of our parents, teachers, and spiritual advisors, we have learned the primary ingredients for success — knowledge, and integ- rity. Well equipped with these all-important tools, we will go forth to follow our chosen careers. We owe a great debt of gratitude to all of the people who have had a hand in the molding of our character. Although this process is not yet completed, we have been given these basic ingredients, which, we hope, will be the recipe for our success. Perhaps the saddest part of our four years at Enfield High is the time when we must say farewell. Although we may part with some regrets, to enter many new and varied fields, we will always retain a wealth of mem- ories of the friendships that we have made here. s CARL L.

The Senior class of 195 has 108 choice ingredients, all of whom have shared in the success of our four prosperous years at Enfield High. , Returning to our Freshman year, we find that its 'Recipe for Success” was unique and precise, featuring: 1 governing body, 1 Senior-Freshman Reception, 1 Latin Award, 1 English Essay Award, 1 School Play, 1 Musicale, and a pinch” of our most athletic boys adding spice to the sports world at Enfield. To blend the ingredients properly, we take one September morn in 1953, when a group of bewildered students first assembled to begin a long four-year episode in their lives. Trying to please the teachers and the upperclassmen may have been the reason for the confusion that first week. We soon, however, became accustomed to the rules we would follow for four years, and accepted our role as freshmen with dignity. Shortly after the beginning of school, we found that a govern- ing body would be necessary to keep our developing ingredients in their proper places. A touch of genius was shown when we elected George Pare, President; George Crombie, Vice-President; Joan Luczai, Secretary; and Dianne Whitney, Treasurer. It wasn't long after that, that our most important spice was added to the Recipe. We were invited to take part in an informal evening with our superiors at the annual Senior-Freshman Re- ception, an evening that had been secretly anticipated by all. The keen intelligence of Elaine Bennett and Roberta Patzsch came next, flavoring our Recipe, as they won the Latin I Award and the Freshman English Essay Award, respectively. Then came our chance to show the Seniors that we were finally shedding our shells and appearing in public. The big event was the school play, Mr. Co-ed”. The spicy acting of our group came from Joan Luczai, Roberta Patzsch, George Crombie, and Connie Bushey. Slowly, but steadily, we worked, mixing ingredients, to achieve the climax of our Recipe of Success as the turn of the year moved onward. It was then that the Oriental flavor was added as the musical, The Mikado , made its appearance. Howard Daly, Philip Quinn, Theresa Desjarlais, Bernard Whitney, and George Pare of our class contributed their efforts to make this feature a success. Just as life’s road is a difficult one to follow, so is the Recipe for Success. We wanted our Sophomore Year Recipe to outshine the first one and so, as we accepted our designated rooms in September of 1954, we vowed to incorporate and succeed. Our Recipe was mapped out for us, but we had to choose the proper ingredients — those that would add distinction and flavor to our class. It included: 1 governing body, 1 Sophomore Hop, 1 School Play, 1 Valley Wheel Crown, 1 Field Trip, and a pinch of All-State representatives. Choosing carefully the choice ingredients for our governing body, we elected George Parc, President; Roberta Patzsch, Vice- President; Joan Luczai, Secretary; and Howard Daly, Treasurer. With the aid of this group and a more mature knowledge of what we were to achieve as Sophomores, we started our second year at Enfield High. The first important ingredient adding quality to our year was the Sophomore Hop, featuring Gordie Baker, a local disc jockey, as our chaperone. The combined efforts of the entire class helped make this event memorable in the years to come. A sweet touch was added to our Recipe as Larry Kiszka repre- sented our class at the All-State Chorus Meet in Hartford. The next important spice was the annual play, Beauty and the Beef . Roberta Patzsch, Joan Luczai, Elaine Bennett, and George Crombie helped make this event a success. We had reached the turn of the year when the next item in our Success Recipe occurred. This was a field trip to the Museum of Natural History in New York City. Members of the Biology classes attended this worth-while event, which was enjoyed by all who went. Adding a pinch” of our most athletic boys, including Howie Bromage, Karl Russotto, Tim Provencher, Rupert Gove, and Tony Romano, Enfield came through to win the Valley Wheel crown in basketball. Time had slipped by so unnoticeably, that, before we knew it, the school term was ending. Again we came out on top as our Recipe for Success reached a new height. Our Junior year was the turning point in our high school life. From here on, we would be working ever so much harder to achieve the Peak of Perfection” — graduation. A few items were added to our Recipe which was complete in itself, featuring: I governing body, 1 School Play, 1 Junior Prom, 1 Spring Concert, and 6 representatives to Girls' and Boys’ State. OF THE CLASS OF 1957 Election time came quickly around, and as before, our class chose proper ingredients to govern and direct our Success Recipe. Anthony Scalia became President; Robert Gregorski, Vice-Presi- dent; Joan Luczai, Secretary; and Dianne Whitney, Treasurer. As the time for the school play appeared, we had the enjoyable acting of George Crombie, Roberta Patzsch, Elaine Bennett, Neil Cowhey, Nancy Gates, Carolyn Tanguay, and Howard Daly, contributing their talents in illuminating the stage. Spring brought a tropical, pleasant taste to our Recipe for Success as our Junior Prom, Tropical Dream”, took shape. Our connoisseurs, Joan Luczai and Howard Bromage, acted as host and hostess. The spring weather also brought about the Spring Concert, in which the tw'o schools of Enfield and Suffield participated. The efforts of our band, glee club, and solos by Bernard Whitney and Lawrence Kiszka garnished the performance. The talents of Joan Luczai and Nancy Gates were blended as they attended Laurel Girls’ State. Howard Bromage, Howard Daly, George Crombie and George Parc attended Nutmeg Boys’ State. Our Junior Year Recipe had reached its climax as we gave the Seniors a hearty farewell at the Farewell Prom, Moments to Remember , with Elaine Bennett and Robert Gregorski acting as host and hostess. Our senior year would be the final year we could take part in our Recipe for Success” at Enfield High School, and so we put our hearts into every action as w-e glanced at our Recipe’s topic head- lines. Included in it were: I governing body, 1 Senior-Freshman Reception, a pinch of All-State Attendants, I Senior Prom, 1 Hi-Y Minstrel, I Valley Wheel Crown, 1 D.A.R. Award, 1 School Play, 1 Washington Trip, 1 Commencement. Just as w'e had been cordially welcomed by the Senior class in 1953, so, as superior ingredients, we invited the less important ingredients to be our guests at the annual Senior-Freshman Re- ception. Searching for the proper components to guide our hand through the last year, we chose George Pare, President; Robert Gregorski, Vice-President; Joan Luczai, Secretary; and Dianne Whitney, Treasurer. A heaping teaspoonful of spice was added when our football team won numerous games bringing our goal closer to a successful end in the sports world, under the leadership of Co-captains Howfie Bromage and Tim Provencher. Coming next was the Senior Prom, 'Snow-flake Fantasy , with Marion Tkacz and Michael Nosal as the host and hostess, con- tributing a distinct flavor to our coming winter holidays. A flavorful touch was added to the curriculum activities as the Hi-Y Minstrel, Starlight Revue”, appeared on the scene in February. Bernard Whitney. Linda Redfern, Neil Cow-hey, Samuel Peraro, and members of our class in the chorus, helped to make this event a success. Again combining their athletic talents, the basketball squad, under the leadership of Captain Tony Romano, won the Valley Wheel Championship. Tony brought more honors to our class as he was chosen the Most Valuable Player. Our cheerleaders who had achieved a Success Recipe for them- selves and had been the morale builders of the basketball team included. Roberta Patzsch, Nancy Gates, Rita Olschafskie, and Lyn Beards lee. Her delightful character and intelligence w-on Joan Luczai the class and faculty votes for the annual good citizenship prize of the D.A.R. Our Recipe was moving slow-ly, but eventfully, to its conclusion as the Social Problems classes went on an excursion to the United Nations Building in New- York City. Garnishing our class history next, came the school play, Spring Night , featuring Joan Luczai and Rocco Motola. Other included in the cast were Elaine Bennett, Elaine Grous, Vincy Gennusa, Eleanora Madsen. Rupert Gove, Albert Albano, Gene Richards, Roberta Patzsch, Sandra Scofield, Lyn Beardslec, Jocelyn Davis, Bernard Whitney, and Nancy Gates. The school play had just ended when we embarked on our eventful trip to Washington, a trip that will long remain in the memories of all who went. With the sweet taste of the Washington trip still in memory, we are now adding the finishing touch to our final Recipe for Success as the last ingredient of 1957 receives his due praises, and accepts with pride and dignity the so earnestly-earned diploma. Now with the four years ended, we look back with loving recognition on the contributions of each year which have reached their Peak of Perfection”, providing for the class of 1957 a Recipe for Success which will live forever, as our paths lead us into the wide w-orld w-here our school-day memories will never die. Class of 1957 Dear Underclassmen: CLASS WILL We realize that although you are uncivilized, extremely ill-mannered and completely ignorant of the ways of the world, that you do have one virtue. You have come to love and idolize this rare, magnificent senior class. Because of this virtue, and only because of it. we have tolerated you. But. dear underlines, as we leave this realm of knowledge, we wonder how you will ever manage to maintain our unsur- passed records in scholastics, sports, and chivalrous deeds. We seniors sincerely sympathize with you that you can never leave as remarkable an impression as has this class of 195T. Because of our love for Enfield High School, we do not wish to see it deteriorate completely in your incapable hands. In view of this fact, we, the seniors, do hereby sacrifice a small portion of our unlimited supply of virtue and knowledge. I. Carolyn Tanguay, attorney at law and sympathizer of ignor- ance, do resolve that this, our last will and testament, will keep Enfield in good standing until which time our items have been completely utilized. Item I. To Mr. Lee. Mr. Tatoian, and the faculty, we leave ten gallons of hair dye to erase those grey hairs which we supposedly put there. Item 2. To the junior class we leave our homeroom. We hope the juniors realize and appreciate this great honor. Item 3. To the sophomores we leave our congratulations on your passing to your junior year. This was a real accomplishment for you. Item 4. To our dear little freshmen we leave the chore of unsticking the wads of bubblegum, which they so dutifully stuck to our homeroom seats. We also have individual contributions to the underclassmen. Our lovely senior girls and handsome boys have so many virtues to spare that we can afford to bequeath the following: 1. Roberta Patzsch and Nancy Gates leave their long list of A s to Carolyn Rypysc and Helen Maslanka. 2. Dale Carpenter will receive Bob Gregorski's amazing ability to charm the freshman girls. Dale, we hope you have as many beautiful girls as our Bob has had. 3. Joan Luczai leaves some of her wonderful school spirit to the whole junior class. Joannie really has plenty to spare. 4. Tony Romano leaves his daily seat at Schubach's to any junior boy who can measure up to Tony’s appetite. To qualify for this seat, the boy must have the capacity to devour at least eight donuts and four cups of coffee at one sitting. 5. Jean Marino and Rita Olschafskie leave their vast knowledge of the principles of trigonometry to any future mathematical prodigies. 6. George Crombie leaves the care and feeding of his turkeys to his sister, Susan. Sue. please take as good care of the gobblers as George has. Jocelyn Davis leaves her marvelous questions to Mr. Benoit, who is still trying to figure out the answers. 8. Dennis Blaney leaves his football uniform to Bobby Cormier of the sophomore class. We are afraid Bobby will have to shrink it about ten sizes. Witnesses: Mr. Donald J. Flebotte Alfred Hitchcock Elvis Earp 9. Elaine Bennett leaves her gym locker to any mathematically- minded girl who can remember the combination. We warn you, Elaine never could open it. 10. Rupert Gove leaves the duty of signing his Charlie Buck” signatures on notices to Wilfred Bourque. We hope Willie will be as diligent in this task as Rupert has been. 11. Jean Rega bequeaths her flirtatious smile and rolling eyes to Cindy Leaf. Leave some of the boys for the other girls, Cindy. 12. With great pleasure, Ken Cote and Millard Pratt leave their chemistry books. 13. Elaine Grous leaves, but will be back again in four years to join our faculty. 14. Dave Arnold was going to bequeath his cute little car but the neighbors on John Street couldn’t stand to hear that roaring hot rod another year. So we advised Dave to take his car with him. 15. Phyllis Bartholomew and Madeline Lc Bel will receive the beautiful wardrobes of Marion Tkacz and Elaine Pease. You’ll really be in style girls. 16. Rita Carrieri, Joyce Shea, Lois Luke, Carol Weigel, and Carolyn Tanguay leave. Perhaps now, the study hall will be much quieter. 17. Richard Skizewski leaves his illegal parking space in front of the school to Tom Cuscovitch. 18. Lrannie Vesce and Linda Redfern leave their never-ending friendship to Jean Provencher and Florence Patrevita. 19. Howie Bromage leaves to Mrs. Bigos her empty ink bottle which so often came to the aid of his very thirsty pen. 20. Tim Provencher and AI Albano leave their friendliness and winning personalities to George White and Joe Marone. 21. Ray King, Stanley Garstka, and Karl Russotto leave their muscles to the freshman boys, who, we think, can use them. 22. Ray Kostek leaves his sketching pencils, brushes, and models to some budding artist of the junior class. 23. Gayle Argenta and Bobby Combs, Sandy Scofield and Bernard Whitney leave the traditional love seats in study hall to Mat Porcello and Nancy Bourgeoise, Eddie Jekot and Helen Kineas. 24. Billy Whiteley is the recipient of Sgm Peraro’s repertoire of excuses for getting out of class. 25. George Pare leaves his beautiful red hair to the junior girls. George may be Hollywood's new Yul Brynner. 26. The senior girls leave to all underclass girls our deepest and most sincere sympathy. We realize we are taking from you our handsome, charming senior boys. 27. To each class beneath us we leave this challenge: Which will be the first class to use study hall for studying? Now that we have so generously bestowed these items, we hereby appoint Mr. Tatoian as executor and administrator of our last will and testament. In witness thereof we do set our hand and seal on this eighteenth day of June in the year of Our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and fifty-seven. Signed: Class of 1957 Attorney, Carolyn Tanguay 34 Double, double, toil and trouble Fire burn and cauldron bubble. While peering, in our swirling pot We find the answers which are sought. Our prophecies hat e ne'er been wrong As time and witchcraft go along The spirits of the future rise Mingled with the witches' cries. As we gaze into our steaming brew, we see in the crystal clearness of each bubble the future of fellow-graduates and classmates. We have studied each vision and spirit and are now able to prophesy the future of the Class of ’57. As the first wisps rise, we catch a glimpse of a room — a large room with many busy people. Wait — now it's clearing! It's Wing 26 of the new Enfield General Hospital (generously donated by that millionaire philanthropist, ROCCO MO- TOLA). Noted doctor GEORGE CROMBIE is discussing his research in the field of fallen arches with GEORGE PARC, JOYCE SHEA and SAM PERARO, all noted medical scientists in the study of nosebleeds. We also see Ward 'B' with its crew of nurses —NANCY GATES, JEAN MARINO. ELAINE BENNETT, and STEPHANIE FEDAK — caring for WAYNE MICHAELS, RICHARD SKIZEWSKI, and WILLIAM CHI- CKOSKY. all local businessmen under treatment for measles. LYN BEARDSLEE, president of the institution, looks on while CAROL WEIGEL, dental hygienist, cares for ROBERT GREGORSKI and TED DARLING, who complain of tooth- aches. A little stirring and the pot steams — only to open to another vision. It’s the conference room of the home office of a nation-wide pea canning industry. The Board of Directors, made up of LAWRENCE LANDRY, BERNARD WHITNEY, AL NITCH, and CALVIN BACON sit quietly while ELAINE PEASE, owner, presents an award to noted author and poet, JOSEPH OREFICE, who has just written a prize-winning slogan. The slogan reads, It pays to please with Pease’s Peas. Now it's November. The pot bubbles with the roaring and cheering of thousands of fans in New York’s Polo Grounds as the New York football Giants swarm off the field victorious in the championship-clinching game. The Giant's great back- field of KARL RUSSOTTO. TIM PROVENCHER, RUDY GOVE and HOWIE BROMAGE accept Coach TONY ROM- ANO’S congratulations in whipping the opponent with terrific scoring power; ripping over the goal-line with terrific running plays and bullet-like passes. (Final score 6-0) In the smoke and steam we see a huge gathering of Enfield’s leading citizens at a weekly P.T.A. meeting. CAROLYN HARRIS, JOAN LUCZAI, ELAINE GROUS, and ALICE RILEY, all faculty members, appear at odds with BARBARA Me FALL, BERTIE PATZSCH and TATSIE DUGAS, other faculty members who, with principal DENNIS BLANEY, are forcing a suggestion for the construction of a drag strip behind Enfield High to be built by the local firm of (GENE) RICHARDS. (RAY) KOSTEK, and (FRANCIS) ZATOR. Other members, KEN COTE, MIDGE MONTESI, TOMMY SACCO, and DOT JENKINSON, appear more interested in the refreshments supplied by (GEORGE) BOSTICKs Bakery. More ingredients and the pot bubbles heavily. Stir in equal amounts of bookkeeping, shorthand, and typing, and study plus perserverance, and we have tomorrow’s leaders in the world of business. Now we arc in an office building owned by local business woman, JOCELYN DAVIS. Here we see LINDA REDFERN and ELEANORA MADSEN busily at work emptying the water cooler (rough work). Also in this office ANGELA GATTO, DOT JENNINGS, MARY POUND are enjoying their only coffee-break — 9:30 to 11:00. Meanwhile, down the hall. AL ALBANO, company efficiency expert, wonders why he took the job as VINCY GENNUSA. MARIE GALLO, and GAYLE ARGENTA busily make air- planes out of stock reports. IBM operators, GERRY KEARNS MICKEY PUTNAM, and ELEANOR MONTANO watch quietly as CATHY BELANGER and CLAIRE HARNOIS fix their IBM machine with a sledge-hammer and a welding torch. (I don’t think they’re doing it right.) In the offices of FRED ALLARD and MILLARD PRATT, public accountants, secretaries EVELYN GOLEM BA and NANCY BALSEWICZ type notes to the girls across the hall while RAY KING and JOHN GNAP, important businessmen, wait to give MILLARD the business. In the Miss ZAWISTOW- SKI’s Secretarial School, teachers DIANE MOWRY, LOIS LUKE, and MARY ANN SOKOL give refresher courses to ANGIE VIZZOLA, JEAN REGA, and SHIRLEY WARNER. Two of the subjects are how' to get longer coffee-breaks and how to be late and get away with it. LYNN BLOMQUIST, home economist, whose new’ book How to Live on Five Hundred Dollars a Week ”, has sold one million copies, re- laxes in her office while secretaries ANGEL CARENZA, MARY ANN CASAMASSA and MARY DOYKER sign fan mail. Letters from DONNA McCONKEY and JOYCE LEARY claim it’s not possible to live on less than seven hundred and fifty a week. ( Maybe?) In the offices of WEHS-TV, BEVERLY SECONDO and MARION TKACZ, the world’s only women camera operators, train their cameras on TV’s newest sensations, the Kitten Sisters —MARLENE O’NEILL, MAUREEN O’NEILL, and FRAN VESCE. Meanwhile, CONNIE BUSHEY and THER- ESA DESJARLAIS rehearse their lion-taming act to be pre- sented on The STAN GARSTKA Show. As the office scene disappears, we hear in the swirling, seething pot the roar of race car engines. It’s the Indianapolis race-way, and we see, in the pits, many familiar faces. Mechanics TERRY CRIPPS, JOHN COOLEY, and CLIFF KONOPKA tune-up the hot cars owned by PHIL QUINN and RITA OLSCHAFSKIE. Meanw'hile, racing officials are trying to push DAVE ARNOLD’S ’40 Ford off the track. (Maybe next year, DAVE?) In the large crowd are several familiar faces. Among them are LARRY D’ADDABBO, owner of the race track, BOB STEFANIAK, millionaire sponsor of the annual race and BOB COMBS, inventor of the new' 700 mph race car which was last seen cruising over Dallas, Texas, three w'eeks ago. (Keep looking, BOB!) As the fire dies down and the smoke floats away, we catch our last glimpse of the future. We see wealthy playboy TONY SCALIA,-seated in one of the plush seats in his plush nightclub in plush Las Vegas. Among his famous guests are RITA CARRIER I. CAROLYN TANGUAY. and DIANNE WHITNEY, all famous artists from Paris, noted inventor MICHAEL NOSAL, originator of the world’s best mousetrap, famous naturalist BOB LEE, who invented a mosquito that doesn’t bite, and CATHY MARTIN, TV fashion model. SHIRLEY NICHOLSON and SANDRA SCOFIELD, well- trained airline hostesses, and Paris hairdresser MARTY HOP- SON enjoy the dancing of JUDIE CORBETT and NEIL COWHEY in the spacious ballroom. Music for the evening is supplied by LARRY KISZKA and his 95 piece orchestra who have just released a new version of that old favorite ’Rock-A-Beatin' Boogie ”. The ashes are cold, the pot no longer boils, but our prophecies have been read and the future has been told. A superior class now seasoned with time. The ladder of success each member did climb. Proving to all that if one does his best He’ll find himself standing above all the rest.

FOOTBALL HIGHLIGHTS A fast and aggressive Enfield High team baked an impressive 5-2 record on the gridiron. Led by the spirited play of Co-captains Tim Provencher and Howie Bromage, the Green Raiders scored victories over Amherst, Plain- field, Classical, Ludlow, and Springfield Trade. A hard running backfield, led by fullback Phil Quinn, blended with an aggressive forward wall, gave Enfield's opponents no rest. Quinn was chosen by his teammates to receive the Most Valuable Player Award. He also won the Charles Scalia M.V.P. Award given by the Rinaldi Post, V.F.W. By their clean, hard, and alert play on the field, the squad brought prestige and honor to the reputation of Enfield High.

BASKETBALL POTPOURRI The Green Raiders brought home the Valley Wheel basketball crown to Enfield High. Compiling a su- perb 16-2 record over the season, the Raiders lost only two hard- fought games. Led by team captain, Tony Romano, the predominantly senior squad with Gove, King, Bromage, Provencher, Russotto, No- sal, Chickosky and Gregorski, won constantly over Valley Wheel op- ponents. Romano, incidentally, leads the league with an 18.7 points per game average. In addition to the honor of the Valley Wheel Championship, the sportsmanship of the Enfield High team on the court reflected the high ideals of the school and the coach. The season was indeed a tasty dish. Enfield Thumps Agawam, 78-57 Enfield.

BASEBALL TIDBITS The Enfield High baseball team flashed off to a fine start in Valley Wheel competition with wins over South Hadley, Ware, Agawam, West Springfield, and Palmer. Led by Captain Howie Bromage, and bolstered by senior players Karl Russotto, Rupert Gove, Timothy Provencher, and Ray King, the Green Raiders combined solid hitting with good pitch- ing and sharp play in the field to provide some unhappy moments for their opponents. The squad showed not only athletic talent on the field, but also a keen desire to win with sportsmanlike play. Prospects for a successful season look good. Each game shows an improvement in the play of the Enfield stalwarts. Once again Enfield takes the lead on the field.
