Like a young child who to his mother’s door Runs eager for the welcoming embrace. And finds the door shut, and with troubled face Calls and through sobbing calls, and o’er and o’er Calling, storms at the panel — so before A door that will not open, sick and numb, 1 listen for a word that will not come. And know, at last, I may not enter more. Silence! And through the silence and the dark By that closed door, the distant sob of tears Beats on my spirit, as on fairy shores The spectral sea; and through the sobbing, hark! Down the fair-chambered corridor of years. The quiet shutting, one by one, of doors. — Hermann Hagedorn

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Cervantes once said, “When one door is shut; another opens.” This expression is most appropriate as we graduate from Enfield High School for we have just closed a crucial door in our education and a new and challenging one is about to be opened. In the four years that we have spent in Enfield High School we have been assisted in the opening of the massive gateways of learning. The books were the locks to which our teachers have given us the master keys. Their guidance and patience have pre- pared us up to this moment of commencement. Now we are about to enter the portals of the future, each toward his own goal. Some of us will be going on to higher schools of education, some to technical schools, some into industry and business, and some into the governmental services. Wherever we shall go, and whatever we shall do, we shall always be grateful for the opportunities we have had at Enfield. CLASS OFFICERS Sitting: Karen Collins, Treasurer; John Devine, President. Standing: A1 Nosal, Vice-President: Roberta Fitz- Gibbon, Secretary. President John Devine 12
