MY RIONE
1940-45 - Via Padre Alessandro Valignani Piazzale ex-Institute for Industrial-called Tram
Valignani Street. The Industrial Technical Institute on the right and one can see some trolley buses in the yard of the shed. Prior to the remittance was used as a tram depot for passengers and goods. Of course, the road was not paved and the fence with rectangular pillars were not there. It was all open. A decade later the building of the school seems to be the same, even in color. Next is visible (covered by trees) former roller mill and pasta factory, De Luca, now Art Institute inaugurated in 1953 and called my contribution in setting the technical facilities and the building.
child, given the proximity of the train-shed, we knew all the employees including the station chief and then we knew everything about cars. On the square in front of the barn there were also trade for freight wagons, in fact, the service was not only passengers but also of goods loaded and unloaded to and from Chieti Scalo.
Just past the front, there was an attempt to reconstruct the destroyed Chieti and I that I had to prepare for 1 st year the Industrial College, I went to school and the local costatai hit by a piece in October 1943, had already been reconstructed together, although the position of the various equipment had been changed and was still waiting for new ones still to mount.
It should be noted that in that period the city was subject to shelling and aerial bombardment by a plane so that each block was going around the city and unleashed a few clips from a small bomb or low potential. These certainly were dropped on our district because in addition to the transit of troops in Valignani Street to the south, was also home to German commands. My family then decided to move from our house and go to our relatives who lived in the district of St. Augustine. From there we looked out a window and saw the tower of the barracks Vittorio Emanuele, who was in the direction of our house. One evening the usual plane turned over our heads and he expected that something was dropped, when standing at the window, he heard a roar and saw a big flash like fireworks in the direction of the tower, but a little 'to the right. Then they hit our house! Shortly after worried, inform us (the news in the city were very fast like the wind) and they told us that had affected the Industrial Institute. The next morning we went to see what had happened to my "Institute", I mean this because I was going to begin a year studying in that school.
We did of course come in and We walked from the train at the time, was being dismantled. It very well could see the beams supporting the roof, were little affected, the bomb had its impact with one of the top beams and open a gap of several meters and the blast had damaged the air and moving part of the roof, all glass and many machine tools that were in the workshop. Debris, chips and whatever else was around and would make the local machines, parts walls were left standing. There were, as we reported injury. After the Liberation
schools are fully operational and the first unrest surfaced in the upper classes The process has already begun to think of our future. By now the news of the Italian campaign and what was happening in the North, were the subject of attention from the student class. The addresses of the technical colleges were purely of an industrial character and we, the class is already beginning to look to the industries of the North and that they would end. Were all destroyed?
Our teachers engineers and scientists ever since we talked about it, as former employees in major industries and large power plants in the North. Maybe for us it was premature to talk about? Many questions are crowded and our desire to know was why a new day and it was about to open. Meanwhile every day that passed was a new news.
As a boy living in the orbit of the Institute had already met the guidelines and then we knew that the industries of the North demanded the new experts. Even my parents were encouraged to make the right choice with my brother. They were dreams of a boy and I faced a lot of determination with this school address. I had not yet seen war up close and when he came for all of us after September 8, we take note of and indeed there have been "great" first time. But after the factories in the North we achieved? Many things changed over the years, but fate is just around the corner. After some time I found myself in the North with a Research institution in a first nuclear reactor and (after Chernobyl 1986)
in alternative energy. So what our teachers told us, had come true even if different ways.
The school environment had become a source of information and at the same time integration of students from each city. In short, a sort of national-ethnic entities. Beginning to change the school system or was the time that gave the sign of change?
student contacts with other school communities, to the rule were marked by a mutual acquaintance, but between us and surveyors and accountants / EEI scientific high school there was already an affinity key, perhaps for the fact that the school addresses were common and mainly technical and scientific. Then about Magistrali there were always cordial relationship and when there were football tournaments, we had almost a sense of solidarity with the teachers because they were many and had to work hard to set up a competitive team.
Towards the grammar school we already looked a bit 'in askance at football matches and there was a rivalry outside of the norm, then this attitude resulted in open warfare broke out shortly after the issue open to experts all faculties universitarie. Infatti, all’epoca la solo facoltà aperta ai periti era economia e commercio. Ci furono dei cortei del nostro Istituto e in uno di questi, ci fu un’assemblea nel cinema dell’ex Dopolavoro che allora si chiamava ENAL. Nel consesso affollatissimo e sul palcoscenico si intervallarono diversi oratori delle varie “fazioni” e tra questi una ragazza del
Campo sportivo “Civitella”,Istituto Industriale 1948.
Liceo (che ricordo benissimo) che con grande fervore era contro l’ammissione degli studenti dell’Istituto Industriale ad altre facoltà che non fosse l’Economia e commercio!
Però fu contestata e ci furono molti contrasts and boos, then someone
restore calm and continued with the proposals and a calendar for other events. To tell the truth, the problem for us was not of vital importance but then there came some problems of schools, but I was struck by the strong opposition of some students, because the dissent had found other students despite the many disputes. I knew that there were many things to fix in the school because the war was about to finire.La what had followed up and, after several years, a positive outcome, especially for access in the faculty of engineering of those technical and scientific ee.
After some time while we were in the classroom to a lesson, a bustle in the corridors of the Institute, interrupted lessons, and some janitors there announced the end of the war, then formed on marches that converged into one and sings along to the end of the war of slogans with enthusiasm in Italy. The Germans had surrendered to the supreme command of the Mediterranean on May 2 and the surrender document signed at Caserta April 29, 1945.
In the schools were not dulled the desire to form teams for tournaments and the Student Industrial Training Institute, principal engineer. Apples, considered the strongest, was prepared with dignity.
maybe my time had arrived to help the fortunes of my football
Institute In fact, I was called along with other good athletes.
Many owners of the team gravitated as player in the reserves of various teams of Pescara and environs as Pineto, Sulmona football. Fa-Cr and the other owners. SSChieti were already part of football.
not forget the existing players as students of Renato Tiriticco (Chieti in the years 1940-1945) who played in previous tournaments student, in his role as defender and later in tournaments Student: Emily Wolf, a great middle of the left wing (in Chieti years 1945-50) and quarterback Enzo Di Renzo (Chieti in 1944-50).
From the photo, equipment and clothing were discrete, blue shirts with band bianca orizzontale e con lo stemma dell’Istituto, calzettoni blu con fascia bianca ed avevamo anche le scarpe da calcio, solo i calzoncini erano misti chi li portava blu e chi bianchi, il portiere maglia bianca con fascia blu orizzontale. Comunque la storia dell’Istituto Tecnico Industriale di Chieti si intreccia con la fondazione nel 1922 della Unione Sportiva Chieti, ma seconda la storia, alla fondazione della squadra teatina parteciparono anche la “Novelli” fondata dall’ Istituto Tecnico Commerciale poi anche per Geometri e dallo “Sport Club Chieti” di alcune personalità del posto.Non dimentichiamo nemmeno il contributo del prof. Guido Ottaviano, già insegnante dell’Istituto Industriale, nella fondazione della Società neroverde.
L’ambiente scolastico era diventato una fonte d’informazioni e nello stesso tempo d’integrazione di studenti provenienti da ogni località. Insomma una specie di entità multietnica interregionale. Cominciava a cambiare il sistema scolastico o era il tempo che dava il segno di vero cambiamento?
