7 ns illlull unix Uesium ani ol the Glass ol 1947 Being of sound mind and sane iudgment, and having been the elected representatives of the Class of '47 of Simsbury High School, in the Town of Simsbury, in the County of Hartford, in the State of Connecticut, we hereby do declare this to be our last will and testament, revoking all others heretofore made by us. L To Mr. Eliot P. Dodge: Our gratitude for his patience, his understanding, and for his untiring efforts in guiding us wisely throughout our four-year stay at Simsbury High School. We trust that we, as future leaders of the world, will some day make him proud of the Class of 1947. To our Teachers: Our thanks for their co-operation and unlimited efforts in aiding us throughout our high school career. lt is our hope that in the future they will be able to raise the level of their classes to the lofty heights reached by the Class of 1947. To Simsbury High School: We leave our noteworthy ability, our successful and praise- worthy example of fine sportsmanship and accomplishments, our proud victories and graceful defeats and our social ability gained through class functions of various types. We now christen the present iuniors as the new-made lords of S.H.S. We bequeath to them our senior dignity, and hope that it will not be too much of a strain on their nerves and muscles, also that they will be able to rise long enough to accept it. We bequeath June Bailey's talkativeness to George Dewey. To Jack Hamm we leave Sally Brainard's corny iokes so that he may get some enjoy- ment out of them. We leave June Brunelle's knack of making friends to all incoming students at S.H.S. We will Craig Carlson's ability in science to Pearl Sperry. To the Simsbury Public Library we leave Joe Carter's unused text books. We leave all of James Castle's morning newspapers to the ianitors to start the fires with next winter. To Herbie Rosenberg we leave the stack of books that James Clark has carried around for four years. We will Leland Collier's end position in football to Horton Holcombe. We leave Robert Cotton's South End Girls to any prospective iunior. We bequeath Florence Curtis's real ability to be true to Lillian Laughlin. We will Barbara Desmond's initiative to work to all'playful sophomores. We leave Casimir Dombkowski's faithful attendance at C.A.P. to any one now interested. We will Eugene Evleth's photogenic qualifications to any iunior who may try to qualify. - We leave Marie Fahey's rosy complexion to Hector Phelps. We will to Ricky Degarmo all of Russell Farrar's torn up trumpet music. Jean Fellows leaves her willingness to get up and give an oral talk to Bill Ketchin. We leave Margaret Ferris' poor excuses about homework to Jim Holcomb, although we know he won't need them. To Janet Bruyette we leave Doreen Finotti's lengthy telephone calls. We will Beverly Fletcher's roller skates to Barbara Duncan, hoping she will be able to navigate on them. We bequeath the natural leadership ability of Micky Gentile, class president of '47, to the next senior class president. We will Dolly Gentile's dancing ability to Richard Cialfi. We leave Edythe Gersten's knowledge of French to any Irishman in the iunior class. We leave Leona Goddard's skill in mathematics to all iuniors who are sadly in need of it.
