BALL PROFESSOR ELMER E. FICKETT PROFESSOR JAMES II. KENNEDY, JR DEDICATION In the years that have passed, LTI has been proud of the many men, respected by both society and industry, who have served to further the education of the young men attending the Lowell Textile School, the Lowell Textile Institute, and more recently, the Lowell Technological Institute. Each graduate of LTI undoubtedly can recall the names of several men at LTI who were especially well-known and liked by both their students and by their associates in their respective fields of endeavor. For their length of service and for the quality and quantity of their contributions, three men stand out aboye the rest: Professor Herbert J. Ball, Chairman of the Division of Engineering, Professor Emeritus Elmer E. Fickett, recently retired Chairman of the Division of Chemistry, and Professor James H. Kennedy, Jr., Chairman of the Textile Manufacturing Division. Each of these men has achieved recognition by his professional society; Professor Ball by the Committee on Textile Materials of the American Society of Testing Materials; Professor Fickett by the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists; and Professor Kennedy by the woolen and worsted industries. Professors Ball, Fickett, and Kennedy have been recognized by their professions; they have been recognized by their students. Now, in dedicating this yearbook to these men, the PICKOUT expresses its recognition of them, and in so doing, acknowledges its gratitude for the many services they have performed so outstandingly for LTI, i «■, .til: S MARTIN J. LYDON A.B., A.M., Sc.D (Hon.)  «$ ;, ' £ V PRESIDENT ' SSAGE mm : « -J£f It has often been said that knowledge is power, and thus it is evident that the worth of educators in a nation ' s potential for good cannot be over-estimated. In this mid-century decade, power centers largely upon scientific and technological progress. The Man of the Century is the technologist who is responsible for more new industrial developments in the past fifty years than were produced in all prior centuries. It is he who is responsible for the advancements in technology and science which have given the United States its present high standard of living, and it is to him that the entire nation and even the world looks for a continuing stream of new inventions and techniques which will bring an even greater cultural enrichment in the years to come. The industry upon which our culture depends requires men of high moral qualities, great initiative, lively imagination, sound scientific background, and congenial personal attributes. This Institute aims to produce such men in the future, as in the past, and the realization of this aim is made possible by the inspired leadership and guidance of a faculty whose sterling qualities are best exempli- fied by three men who have long served the Institute with the greatest distinction — Pro- fessor Herbert J. Ball, Professor Emeritus Elmer Fickett,and Professor James H. Kennedy, Jr. By their inspiration these three great teachers have developed the creativeness and the initiative of their students, establishing all the while the basic disciplines and understand- ing that are the foundations of a sound and well-balanced education. You who have been privileged to study under these outstanding educators are about to embark upon careers, well-trained for your selected tasks. You have been given the tools with which to lay the foundation for your life ' s work, and it is now up to you to make the most of that which;- has been given to you. As you face the challenge of the future, you have my sincere best wishes for every happiness and success. ■m M- ii ' . ' ®w ' - i -. y : i 1 9 K MISS BARBARA BROWN Coordinator of Special Services J.

All phases of textile chemistry are emphasized, but sufficient courses in the humanities are also required. This broader training of the graduate is believed to result in a more capable and succesful member of society. The degree offered in this course is Bachelor of Textile Chem- istry, Coloring, and Dyeing. The head of this division is Dr. George R. Griffin. DR. G. GRIFFIN Chairman of Division First Row; Dr. A.

At the instant when tumultuous conditions mold a life, an individual is not able to discern this marked influence on his later years. It is only through the process of retrospection that one can appraise the incidents of the past in the light of the future. And, fortunately for the human race, the process of retrospection makes gay times gayer, and times of strife seem almost innocuous. Gay times gayer, hard times softer . . . how does that apply to four years at L.T.I. ? Let ' s start from the begin- ning . . . It was one of those balmy September days in 1951 when the Class of 1955 first came upon Lowel Textile, as it was known in those days. In entrance, even as in graduation, there were many contrasting opinions about LTI. Those among us who were Ivy League and well traveled didn ' t like what they saw. Some of us were completely innocent of college, and didn ' t know what to expect in the physical appearance of a school. So what if it ' s yellow? . . . Little did both groups realize that during their matriculation at the Institute more new buildings would be erected and more improvements would be made than in any com- parable four year period. We were both awed and frightened by our new surroundings. In solemn ceremony, the Dean (who we were soon to know as the Clean Dean, for some obscure reason) robed in academic gowns, told us to look to the left, and to look to the right. His words didn ' t end with stand up, sit down, fight, fight, fight. Instead, he shocked us by saying that one of the men on either side of us would not be there at graduation time. To which we shouted, Who me? Yet he was right . . . alas poor roommates. It was in a gay, carefree, youthfully inexperienced attitude that we stormed the Bookstore. We were loaded up with enough material to give us mementoes of freshman days. Even as we are about to gradu- ate, we have some of our early purchases, unused. We were given the Red Book and the Blue Uniform, and we heard President Lydon ' s famous convocation speech advising us if we didn ' t like it here to go someplace else. Classes were from 8:30 to 4:30 plus four hours on Saturdays, to make up for the additional hours caused by the inclusion of ROTC in the curriculum. As members of the first Corps of Cadets at LTI, we found that those among us who could march became officers, and that those who couldn ' t became disgusted. One heavenly blessing was the rain almost every week during drill hours. The social year was started for the freshmen with a blind date dance held in conjunction with Lowell Teachers . . . Mmmmoan. Then the All-Tex Formal 18 was held, with Freddie Martin featured ... A Frosh Smoker had Swede Nelson as guest speaker. We saw LTI emerge as an outstanding power in a strange game called soccer. There was no football to cheer for, so we immediately were in need of a good interpreter . . . Viva Zapata!! . . . Our first enc ounter with industry came at the Open House, which highlighted Secretary of Commerce Sawyer. Many of us, clad in our ROTC blue, were strategically placed throughout the Institute to decorate the walls. Suddenly, it was Christmas time, and with some exams behind us, we tried not to look backward . . . The new year began with the first Military Ball, an im- mediate result of which was the sale of shoulder patch- es to the Corps at $1.25 apiece. A new organization, WLTI, was formed on campus . . . The Film Classics group continued to present fine motion pictures . . . The Text pessimistically foretold a bleak fraternity future, as men from the houses went back to the dorms . . . The new Paper-Leather Building was opened in March, and many of us began to sleep in classes held there as Hell Week raged in full fury. We voted to change the name of Lowell Textile to Lowell Tech, and we were quite startled to read that President Lydon was to campaign for governor. Naive as we were, the Pink Issue had taken us in. That April was a good one . . . There were three vacation periods, one occasioned by the Wool Bureau Convention here. The Tech Players presented, You Can ' t Take It With You, and after almost a full year of LTI, most of us were content not to try . . . Upstream Day capped the social year, as many beer bottles were uncapped by the rapidly learning Frosh . . . We were indeed rapidly learning, but perhaps the wrong things; for when finals were over, our ranks were depleted. Summer came- and- went all too quickly. When we were ready for our next year, we weren ' t the same group of innocent youths. We were proud and arro- gant sophomores, who knew everything about LTI; and we didn ' t hesitate to tell the first freshman we saw all about it. Things were somewhat different around LTI. The ROTC moved its offices, and added new officers . . . Physics Lab was now in the P-L Building . . . There were fraternity floors in the dorms, instead of having men suffer the disadvantages of their houses. O Pi celebrated its Fiftieth Anniversary . . . Prof. Merrill stepped down as head of the Cotton Depart- ment after many years of meritorious service . . . We found that things as sophomores were not what we ex- pected . . . Was it not? . . . Math ... to differentiate or integrate . . . Cotton ... to be sure . . . Physics . . . Philosophy . . . Organic . . . 1, 1, 2, 2, . . . are you sure Fermi started this way? . . . Lab reports . . . dung locks . . . We had an All Tech Smoker, and the Military Ball i ' Just married ' Now, just a pinch of salt 19 A visiting lecturer Entertainment from L. T. C. was held once more. This time the price of shoulder patches decreased to $1.00. Sparked by Chris Chingros, 35 points, we upset Clark in the opening basketball game of the season 68-63. Following that win, we managed to drop the majority of our games, so it was a case of wait till next year ... WLTI first broadcast in January, with an opening program featuring Col. Kelley, President Lydon and Dean Williams . . . We celebrated LTI ' s Fiftieth Anniversary by a special convocation with Governor Herter as honored guest. It was at this cere- mony that the cornerstone for a new administration- auditorium building, Cumnock Hall, was set . . . Shep Fields appeared at the All Tech Formal, and Jilla Webb sang a new Alma Mater selected by a school- wide contest . . . Club Eames was a gala success, as we saw our instructors as we never dreamed we would . . . Then, as a fire immobilized Lowell Teachers, we sud- denly found ourselves beset with the females. They were given the facilities of the P-L Building, and more of us became conscious of our dress and appearance . . . Finals were declared mandatory, with no exemp- tions, ending a feast for some. At this time, we had spent almost half of our four years at Tech. We were blase . . . had seen everything . . . there could be nothing new to stir us. We obvi- ously knew our three R ' s . . . but when we saw those Ten R ' s consecutively appear in The Text, and those apostolic 12 go from the school for a while, we be- came plenty panicky. Griping was done only among friends, and when no one was watching. After that episode, everything was anticlimatical. The presenta- tion of My Sister Eileen and the ensuing social events just couldn ' t compare with the Text ' s two-week plan. A summer ' s hiatus from LTI brought us back to some radical changes. The clean dean was replaced by a jovial dean, Richard Ivers. Charlie Edlund, the all- time faculty catcher in softball, became Charles F. Ed- lund, Dean of Faculty, replacing G. Nathan Reed. This was our new team . . . but some said it was the same old ballgame . . . The Tech Formal came early that year . . . Billy Butterfield performed ... A new electronics course was introduced . . . The basketball team won its opener 71-70 . . . but even a gigantic pep rally couldn ' t help them defeat MIT. We were juniors, and what a year it was . . . The engineers were personally introduced to the ring trav- eler . . . There were lab reports and lab reports, and even more lab reports . . . Thank heaven for the man who invented copying . . . There was the stimulating inspiration of T Chem., and the fight to get up for the card quiz in P. Chem . . . There was Textile Testing with its statistics . . . now really we weren ' t the worst class in that respect . . . And there were many of us 20 who took great pleasure in leaving the corps of cadets, and looking on as interested spectators as the boys in blue breezed by. Yet there were those among us who were — in two words — Gung Ho! In February, the ROTC graduated its first com- missioned officer ... A student questionnaire by the Student Council put student complaints where they could be filed for future reference. An issue of the Text printed on pink paper proclaimed there was to be no pink issue . . . and that that color paper had to be used up somehow. After the events of the previous year, some of us wondered; but the tradition was up- held ... It was to Atlantic City that we all nocked for the Machinery Show in late April. As those who shortly were to be out in industry , we were eager to see all — and we did — the 500 Club . . . Club Tropi- cana . . . Jockey Club . . . Yacht Club . . . the Monkey Bar . . . the Bamboo Club . . . What hangovers we had for the alumni banquet at Hadden Hall the next day. And then it was back to LTI to end the year. A plan for the establishment of hazing for next year was accepted by President Lydon . . . Prof. Elmer Fickett retired at the age of seventy, and was feted at a testi- monial dinner ... A new course in Textile Manufac- turing was set up, designed to eliminate much of the duplication and repetition throughout all the textile courses . . . Oh? . . . The Tech Players presented Remains To Be Seen . . . The Class of 1954 was graduated in outdoor ceremonies during our final period. We could almost taste our degrees. The summer came and went . . . for the first time not as fast as we wanted, because we were to be seniors. And when we returned to Lowell, we again saw some- thing new. Cumnock Hall was open, and we said this is for my graduation . . . We found disgusting freshmen parading about in little red caps. Mighty seniors that we were, we stood aloof from this non- sense . . . There was a TV set in Eames Lounge, ful- filling a campaign promise of an unsuccessful candi- date in our freshman year . . . Things were looking up . . . even a field house was being planned. Vice-President Nixon came to LTI for an honorary degree at the dedication of Cumnock Hall. Ed Hayes gave him a beanie, a picture which made many news- papers, and evoked many snide comments during the election year . . . To no one ' s surprise, the Frosh were the winners at Field Day; and they discarded their beanies at a school wide banquet in Cumnock Hall . . . The first IFC Weekend was held with a skit night pre- ceding the dance. The Military Ball followed shortly thereafter . . . The Tech Formal engaged Claude Thorn- hill to make with the music ... A Slight Case of Murder was the Players ' offering. And now as seniors we felt as if a burden had been Who ' s taking notes? . . . and then we ' ll see if Cumnock burns -  ■ ■ ■ J w J K ' v i J V ' 1 ► B H - n ■ _iS w . : - 21 taken from our backs . . .

We thought of the Army . . . jobs . . . the Army . . . graduate school . . . the Army . . . placement . . . draft status, please? . . . we ' ll call you, don ' t you call us. And thus our four years at Tech have drawn to a close; and looking them over now, one really can ' t find a bad moment lingering in his memory. In later years, we ' ll find that each memory of LTI will increase in value and appreciation; and that there will be a longing for our days at LTI ... yet these days will only be available ...

During the past year, Lowell Techno- logical Institute has undergone a drastic revitalization as far as the student is concerned. There has been a remarkable increase in what is termed school spirit. The freshman hazing program, which has been decadent for the past few years, was revived and con- ducted in a fashionable manner. The Student Council, in conjunction with the Tech Orientation Committee, revived other traditions here at Tech as a result of the hazing program. A field day was held on October 27, at which time competitive sports between the fresh- men and upperclassmen were held to determine the final day of hazing. The Tech Banquet, also decadent for the past few years, was held at the termination of the field day and it proved to be a successful affair. Lowell Tech has at long last found an Alma Mater which will help instill a sense of belonging to all the students. In order to have a successful Alma Mater, it must be sung, and at all the major functions during the year, the Alma Mater was played. A proposal which was brought up during the past year was that of having class rings rather than the Alumni rings which are being used now. It appears that it will be a welcome change for graduating stu- dents to be designated as members of a specific class in addition to being recognized as Alumni. The class rings would serve this purpose. The All-Tech Formal Weekend, which is a major highlight of the year, was held during the latter part of February. The music for this affair was provided by Claude Thornhill. The IFC ' s carnival, the basketball game, and the jazz band were responsible for provid- ing LTI with a perfect weekend. The Council, during the year, also had its attention focused elsewhere in an attempt to alleviate some of the existing situations. Parking always seems to pre- sent its problems; however, the Council was successful in setting up a parking lot for students. Another issue 25 Today I am a man First Row, Left to Right: A.

How do you plead? which confronted many of the organizations was that of having a mimeo machine available for printing notices. The Council was successful, with the aid of some staff members, in obtaining a mimeo machine for the students ' use. The Council also undertook the task of seeing if buses could be made available to all students interested in attending Tech ' s games away from home. An intra- mural league was also in the making so that non-fra- ternity members would have a league of their own. This league would be independent of the fraternity league and would allow more of the student body to take part in athletic events. The Council also aided in alleviating the crowded locker situation; in getting athletic managers for the teams, and in handling various grievances. It is an old saying that credit should be given where credit is due. Since the Student Council is entrusted with the responsibility of the student activities, it is also responsible for the success or failure of these acti- vities. Since the various activities have enjoyed a suc- cessful year, it is only just that the Council receive some of the credit for the success of the past year. 26 p SS mm £1 A ft :4 V ■ JM| T.O. C. Last Fall, one third of the students at LTI were wearing red and black beanies, and name tags. Fresh- man Orientation had been revived at Tech. The pro- gram was set up by a committee including Ed Hayes, Al Cohen, Lew Silverman, Al Gilet, Ken Cohen, and J. J. Berger. The purpose of this program was to initiate an awareness in each freshman of his academic and social responsibilities toward himself and toward the Insti- tute, and to develop class and school spirit among the freshmen. During the acquaintance week, TOC supported the Freshman Smoker, and the FRE E FROSH FROLIC. The following week, the freshmen were introduced to their program, which included the wearing of the beanie and nametag, and the mem- orization of a list of rules appropriately called the Ten Commandments. A Freshman-Sophomore Swimming Meet was held, with the freshmen overpowering the sophomores. However, the sophs avenged themselves by defeating the freshmen in a softball game played at Shedd Park. In a hard-fought basketball game, the TOC team defeated the winners of the Freshman Intramural Tournament. Thus, the sophomores trailed the fresh- men by only seven points going into Field Day, which was held the afternoon of October 27. The freshmen girls defeated the upperclass girls by one H. KENNETH COHEN President point in their basketball game, while the Freshmen All-Stars upset the Sophomore All-Stars. Unfortunately, the Track Meet was rained out. However, it wasn ' t the rain that wet the spir its of the freshmen and sophomores who lined up on op- posite sides of a pit, partially filled with water, for the tug-of-war competition, the results of which need not be recalled. Following the Field Day, over 500 people attended the All-Tech Banquet. Here, the freshmen learned that they had defeated the sophomores, and that the orientation period was officially over. This news was met by a mass of beanies thrown into the air by the jubilant freshmen. In line with the organization ' s policy to do its ut- most to aid the freshmen, the Tech Orientation Com- mittee is organizing a Freshman Handbook, which will be presented to the Class of 1959.

See Kaplan! Anyone, or all of these statements have been uttered at one time or another by the Editor-in-Chief; Floyd Frank, in line with his new organizational policy. For the first time in the Pickout ' s operation, a strict organizational plan has been set up and has been very closely adhered to. The effectiveness of this plan will be shown from the varied criticisms of this pro- duction. At the top of this executive pyramid of authority reposes Floyd Frank as Pharoah. Immediately below him is his aide-de-camp, Billy Kaplan as Managing Editor. The high priests are broken into two main categories, aesthetic and mercenary. Donny Legow heads the business staff while the literary staff is head- ed by Fred Obear, the Photography by Pete Canovai, and the layout by Miss Nancy Geary. The smooth movements of these staffs have been coordinated by the Editor Frank. Through the efforts of last year ' s co-editor, Danny Brier, a constitution for the Pickout was authorized by the Student Council. This provided for a Pickout Board wherein a more diversified number of students would have a say in the Pickout. The IFC president, the Varsity Club president, the Student Council presi- dent, are some of the members of this board. Since election time last year, the wheels of motion have been turning rapidly. For this yearbook, work started in midsummer. Layout plans were made, and the contracts for printing and photography were made before the school year opened. The large business staff hurriedly sent particulars to prospective adver- tisers. The photography crew started very early. All this was done so as to get the yearbook out early. How- First Row: S.

For the 1955 Yearbook, new inovations have been tried such as two tone color effects, colored pages, candid photography, and exceptional writing. Also, a very distinctive cover adorns the yearbook. Once again, this Pickout looks forward to its an- nual banquet with the newspaper staff of the Text. At that time, the Pickout Key will be awarded to those men who have distinguished themselves working for the Pickout. Last years ' recipients were Floyd Frank, Marv Baevsky, Lou Silverman, and Frank Carolyn. Yet, there were many awards which were deserved but which could not be presented. Foremost in this cate- gory were the faculty advisers, Professor Russell M. Fox and Professor Louis W. Stearns. It was Professor Fox who supervised and guided the actions of our staff, and it was Professor Stearns who wrestled with the inadequacies of the staff ' s English in order to pro- duce a fine literary work. Also in this category, to a lesser extent, were the unsung heroes of the yearbook, the typists, advertising solicitors, and those who work- ed without recognition. However, in years to come, the reward they deserve will undoubtedly be showered upon them. It is indeed a great pleasure to work for the Pickout because of the many opportunities it affords a student. In addition, there is an inner satisfaction of doing a good job. We have to have these by yesterday 31 TEXT HAROLD COTTON Editor WALLACE FILLER Business Manager The Text, the undergraduate newspaper at LTI, had its origin in 1919, when an energetic group of students attempted to record current happenings about the campus. In endeavoring to reach these general objectives, the Text has had an illustrious life. Up to World War II, the Text grew with the in- creased student activity until it reached the position of foremost sounding board for the Institute. The war years, however, were lean, but in 1947, a group of students reformed the Text as a new type of paper, its foundation being rested upon the interest of the entire student body. The chief objectives of the paper have been to publish for the best interests of Lowell Tech, the student body, and the student organizations, all news items and topics of discussion concerning the above groups, individually and or collectively. At the annual election held at the close of the first semester, J. Joel Berger was elected to serve as Editor-in-Chief for the 1954-1955 college year. Al O ' Heir was elected Business Manager. The paper, now streamlined with narrow columns and clear, uniform copy, entered on its yearly staff overhaul, with undergraduates replacing the depleted ranks of seniors. Hal Cotton became Managing Editor, and Howard Ponty, Ed Hayes and Ted Hoffman edited Features, News, and Sports, respectively.

In many cases, clever and humorous parallels were drawn between the campus and the world in general. The versatility of the staff was evident as this issue providied a great deal of campus comment for weeks following its publication, and strange as it may seem, that ' s all that happened. The Text next stepped into the spotlight with a special issue for the Textile Machinery Show held at Atlantic City last April. Over 2,000 copies of this issue were distributed by the LTI cheerleaders to all corners of Convention Hall. Not only did Lowell Tech gain immeasurable prestige by its booth at the Show, and by their student participation, but it was the opinion of many that these copies of the Text served as valuable tangible memories of LTI for both exhibitors and visitors. The annual social event of the student publication organizations took place in early May. At this time, the Text and the Pickout varied from their usual banquet and combined to sponsor a dinner-dance for their joint staffs. Actually, the music and dancing were added features, as the after-dinner speaking reached new proportions for humor and laughs. Once again, the versatility of the campus newshawks was quite evident. The presentation of favors and awards rounded out an evening of festivities (and pratically drove both organizations to bankruptcy.) Due to unforeseen circumstances, September saw the Text forced into partial reorganization. Hal Cot- ton assumed the position of Editor-in-Chief upon J. Joel Berger ' s resignation. Wally Filler became Busi- ness Manager, Fred Klimpl took over as Managing Editor and Len Lifland was elevated (with the aid of a crane ) to head the News Staff for the fall semester. Vice President Richard Nixon ' s visit to LTI in September for the dedication of Cumnock Hall pro- vided good copy for the first issue of the new school year. In fact, the Text was awarded an exclusive in connection with the dedication ceremony. Through the graciousness of the Veep , John Ferenbach was allowed a five-minute interview, the contents of which were printed in the first issue. Coincidentally, two Text reporters happened on a nearby political rally soon after the Vice President ' s local visit, and the second issue of the paper included an exclusive interview with Senator Estes Kefauver. The press cards of the Text seemed to grow in size as these two attempts at national coverage graced its pages. The Christmas issue appeared in green ink to cele- brate the holiday season. This issue was increased to six pages through the efforts of Business Manager Wally Filler and his staff. The first Sportoon , a cartoon based on the athletic setup at LTI by Fresh- man Jack Lamb, was published in this issue. The Text of 1954-1955 experienced many changes during the course of the year. The layout was con- tinually revised and the best possible newspaper styl- ing was the goal of each issue. A new printer with enlarged facitities was engaged to reduce the bed- time of the paper. Closer cooperation with the Institute ' s Director of Information, Miss Barbara Browne was initiated in an attempt to keep fresh news on the pages of the Text. Photography was utilized to its utmost in an endeavor to support the news and sports section. Features were stressed, and in this department, two new articles made their regu- lar appearance in addition to the general personal Another issue goes to bed Our complaint files THE TEXT Published bi-weekly during the college year, except on holidays or during vacation by the undergraduates of Lowell Tech- nological Institute, Textile Avenue, Lowell, Massachusetts.

The additions were Campus Leaders and Sportlight, the latter condensing the life of sport figures on and off campus for publication. The publication of each issue of the Text entailed many long hours of writing and rewriting and layout on the part of each editor and his staff. But, its ultimate worth is easily proven. Every effort is made to promote campus spirit and develop the individual student. However, the greatest gain ultimately comes to the editors and staff. It can be easily seen where the Text member is improved academically by the experience gained through merely writing and rewriting copy. Actually, the supporting functions of the newspaper provide the greatest benefits. Planning, organization, super- vising, coordinating and controlling are the general operations necessary for each issue, and proper ad- ministration of the organization. These same oper- ations are the backbone of much of America ' s indus- tries. It is sincerely felt that the participation on the Text exposes one to very important principles and ideas, all aiming to make a better student and a better college. 34 One of the best known organizations on campus is the TECH PLAYERS. Composed of stage hands, ticket sellers, prop men, and a few under- fed actors, this group works together in harmony to produce a great play each year. The official season opened with a Christmas Party at which children from the various local orphanages met Santa Claus. Presents, peanuts, and ice cream re- ceived top billing — not to mention Santa, who played a fine supporting role. Everyone went home a little happier than when he arrived with a warm feeling in the vicinity of the heart. Last year ' s presentation, REMAINS TO BE SEEN, was a roll ' em in the aisles comedy built around a twice murdered corpse. Carol Dunn, the jazz singer niece of the recently departed, arrived on the scene only to be chased by Jerry Harlam with hypodermic needle (Jerry, incidentally, was the culprit who did the dastardly deed; to deprive Tina Velantzas, Uncle ' s unalinguistic girl friend, of a share in the win; to be wooed by attorney Mel Ettenson; and finally won and carried off by the naive drummer, Eric Fagan. Always to be remembered are Don bull ' s eye on every page Legow; the little man with the big knife, Tris Laurion; and the crew of hard-boiled New York cops, Stu Krouss, Jim Ganz, and Don Wark; and all the others TECH PLAYERS DONALD LEGOW President OFFICERS President Donald M.

Miss Adele Simpson, well known locally for her work with dramatic groups, was the directrix. Thanks to her, REMAINS TO BE SEEN was a smash hit. Thanks, also, are due to the members who worked backstage with lights, props, and the set. Without them, the play could not have been presented. The ' 54 season ended with a grand banquet at the Beaverbrook Country Club. Professor Stearns was the guest speaker. His criticism of comedy will long be remembered by all who attended. At this time each year, the Tech Players present their outstanding members with keys. Those honored last year were Tom Garvey, Elaine Kenney, Don Le- gow, Tina Velantzas, Dave Austin, Mel Ettenson, John Twarog, Chet Petkiewicz, Norm Hamel, Jim Ganz, and Ed Bonacci. This year, the Tech Players are moving into Cum- nock Hall. To the members, it represents a long awaited homecoming, for we have felt deeply the need of a fine auditorium. This year ' s play, A Slight Case of Murder, promises to be bigger and better with such an incentive. First Row: J. Sanghrajka, E. Fagan, N. Hamel, E. LeFort, J. Twarog, L. Missry, P. Canovai, F.

Twarog Treasurer Harold N. Cotton ALLEN COHEN President Circle K was first organized at LTI in May of 1953 by a group of civic-minded students. Under the lead- ership of the Lowell Kiwanis Club, Circle K obtained its charter and set about establishing itself amidst the shuttles and dyepots of Lowell Tech. In the brief period of two years, Circle K has made itself known on the campus by its many activities and projects. Like its parent organization, the Kiwanis Club, Circle K is a service organization on the college level. The purpose of Circle K is to be of service to the school and community. The members devote a large segment of their time and efforts to carrying out these objectives. Membership in Circle K is open to all male stu- dents of Lowell Tech above the Freshman level. Stu- dents are selected on the basis of their interest and scholastic averages. Since Circle K is a service organ- ization, anyone anticipating membership should have a sincere desire to participate actively in many of the service projects. First Row: J. Twarog, F. Hogan, A.

Coates. 38 Supper meetings are held one night a month at a local restaurant. Following the meal, a guest speaker is usually presented. Circle K has been fortuate to ob- tain many very interesting speakers, such as, Inspector Burke, an LTI alumnus, of the local police force who spoke on scientific methods of investigation; Assistant District Attorney Allen Gerson, who spoke of his work with crime; and Frank Maria of a local textile concern, who spoke on the textile industry. Circle K is probably most well known and appre- ciated because of its Orientation Program. The mem- bers returned from their vacations early to proctor freshman exams, assist the Registrar, distribute infor- mation booklets, and run the Freshman Outing and Smoker. The Outing was held at the Tyngsboro Country Club on the Wednesday afternoon of Orientation Week. The weather cleared and provided a mild, sunny day. A buffet luncheon was served by a local caterer. Sports and games comprised the afternoon ' s activities. Some of the many events included horse- shoes, shuffleboard, volleyball, golf, softball, and track events. Even the girls competed and won some events, including the Cake Biting Contest. A Freshman Smoker was held in Southwick Hall on Friday evening. Circle K packaged and distributed about 250 corn cob pipes with tobacco for the occasion. Prizes were awarded for the sports and games held at the Outing. Another project of Circle K is the Freshman Tut- oring Program. Classes are held after school for fresh- men desiring help in physics, mathematics, and chemis- try by some of the upperclassmen. This program is organized by Circle K, but includes some girls and non-members as instructors. Each year, the Lowell Kiwanis Club sponsors a huge home show at the Lowell Memorial Auditorium. The proceeds of this week-long program are used by the Kiwanis Club for its charitable services. Circle K has been allowed to run the two tonic concessions at the Show, with the proceeds being turned over to the Circle K treasury. Thus, last October saw many Lowell Tech men discarding books and slide rules for white aprons and bottle openers. The experience obtained by those taking part was invaluable, since bottle open- ing is indeed a vital part in one ' s college education. The proceeds obtained from the tonic concessions are to be used in establishing a scholarship fund to aid deserving students. This is just another service by the members of Circle K. The Club is fortunate to have two likable Faculty Advisers — Doctor Wentworth Williams and Profes- sor John Lewis. Both of these men have shown their interest in Circle K by their time and efforts, and they are well appreciated by all of the members. 39 AATCC CHESTER J. PETKIEWICZ Chairman OFFICERS President Chester J. Petkiewicz Vice President Nancy Geary Treasurer David Torchia Recording Secretary Paul Law Corresponding Secretary John Twarog The history of the Student Chapter of the AATCC dates back to 1921. At that time, the organization was known as the Textile Chemical Organization, and was founded by Dr. Lewis A. Olney. The primary function of this organization was to serve as a com- munication between the vast textile industry and the textile student. The following year this group disbanded and or- ganized the first student chapter of the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists at Lowell Technological Institute. The AATCC is a unique organization for it represents the only nation- ally active chapter devoted exclusively to textiles on the campus of LTI. The main purpose of this group is to establish channels and to maintain a basis for the exchange of technical information in the fields of textile chemistry and dyeing. Each year, the Northern New England Section of the National AATCC holds its April meeting at LTI as guests of the student chapter. It is the custom at this meeting to have the afternoon program de- livered by the students themselves, followed by the evening portion in which they also participate. Miss Nancy Geary, Class of 1955, presided as general chairman for the day ' s activities. Guided tours were held through the school and through several import- ant exhibitions which were staged. The visitors wit- nessed demonstrations and short lectures on the electron microscope, the spectrograph, the General Electric recording spectrophotometer, and the Instron. Following the demonstrations, a dinner was held in the school cafeteria. The evening portion of the meeting consisted of the regular business meeting of the Northern New England Section and also included several technical papers which were presented by graduate students at the Institute. The papers given were ' Acetate Dyeing-Interfacial Film Phenomena by Edwin C. Sherburne, Friction and Lubrication of Nylon Parachute Materials by Harry J. Demas, and Wool Dyeing-Effect of Dye and Acid Valence by Joseph B. Levy. The AATCC has had the privilege during the term to hear such speakers as Mr. Kenneth Fox, former President of LTI and now affilia ted with the Fabrics Research Laboratory. Mr. Joseph Masaschi was also heard at one of the regular meetings and presented a talk on Filters. In an attempt to vary the program, a panel dis- cussion was held on The effects of carriers with re- spect to dyeing rates and equilibriums. The panel consisted of four students assisted very ably by Pro- fessor Robert J. Peirent. The student chapter has made great strides during the past decade and will continue to do so in order to maintain its status with the ever-increasing im- portance of chemistry in industry.

Chapin Vice Chairman Frank V. Mann Secretary Richard F. Hoyle Treasurer Bernard Shapiro JOHN W. CHAPIN Chairman The American Society of Mechanical Engineers inaugurated a student chapter at LTI for the engin- eering students at the request of the Engineering So- ciety of the Institute. The Society offers the engineer- ing student an insight to industry through seminars, lectures, field trips and motion pictures. The first function of the ASME was an inaugura- tion dinner at which Professor Katz of the Research Foundation spoke on The Engineer in Society. Short talks were given by President Martin Lydon and Mr. Ernest Lareau, who is the faculty adviser to the group. A delegation attended the regional ASME meeting at M.I.T. where they heard a lecture by Dr. Harold Edgerton on the Stroboscope. After his lecture, Dr. Edgerton showed a motion picture of his deep sea ex- periences in a Bathysphere. One of the highpoints of the year was the National ASME convention during December at the Hotel Stat- ler in New York. Seven members accompanied by Mr. Lareau attended this meeting. The delegates heard lectures, and participated in many discussions on many topics including engineering approaches to textiles and the exact roles of an engineering education. The most information was gathered, however, at the sev- eral luncheons attended where many informal discus- sions were held between students and men from in- dustry. Student chapters from Tufts, Northeastern and M.I.T. also attended a seminar at Eames Lounge in January. First Row: E. Hovnanian, G. Boucher, J. Ganz, R. Hoyle, B. Shapiro, J. Chapin, F. Mann, S.

Membership in this student chapter of the ASME is limited by the national organization to students enrolle d in textile engineer- ing courses only. With the ASME chapter here, the engineering student is able to attend all ASME functions. This is of great importance to him as a means of looking into industry through the eyes of executives and workers of industry. With its large enrollment and with the many new features it has brought to the Institute, the ASME promises to be one of the most active organiza- tions on campus.

Peckham The object of the Leather Engineering Society is to foster better acquaintance between the members of the Society and the persons who are associated with the tanning industry; to discuss problems of mutual interest to the members; and to correlate scientific re- search with practical application. The monthly meetings of the leathermen consist of a dinner followed by an informal seminar with a guest speaker from the leather or allied industry. This year, the Society adopted a plan to secure speakers on the topics of hide buying, tannery production, sales, management, research, and finance. Although the Leather Engineering Society has been in existence at LTI only three years, it is now number- ed among the more active campus activities; and its value has definitely been realized by all present and past members.

The object of the society is to promote a feeling of common understand- ing and cooperation among members of the Paper Engineering course. Social as well as technical acti- vities are emphasized. Such events as seminars and dinners are planned to further acquaint students with the techniques of industry. During the two years of its existence, the activities and membership of the Paper Engineering Society have increased steadily. When organized, the Society had only seven members. At the present time, there are thirty-three active members in the organization, a number which will further be increased by incoming freshmen to the paper course. HENRY POWELL President First Row: N.

Litt Treasurer Conrad Metcalf LOUIS GOLDBERG President Three years ago, a body of Jewish students attend- ing Lowell Textile Institute applied for membership in the national Hillel organization and founded the present B ' nai B ' rith Hillel Counselorship at Lowell Technological Institute. Hillel strives to attain a two-fold goal: to make Jewish college students heirs as well as creators — heirs to their historic heritage as well as potential creators of new values; sharers of time-validated experience as well as molders of new patterns of self expression; recipients of knowledge as well as formulators of fresh insights. In its few years of existence, the Hillel at Lowell has ventured to reach this two-fold goal within its cultural, religious, and social programs. This year, in keeping with the aims of Hillel, dis- cussion groups, under the direction of Rabbi Warren of Lowell, were held on Tuesday evenings. Topics brought up by the students at these meetings ranged from Jewish history and customs to marital problems. Although Hillel is mainly a Jewish organization, stu- dents of other religious beliefs, interested in learning different aspects of Jewish life and history, attend dis- cussions and other Hillel sponsored affairs. One such affair was a dance in cooperation with the Hillel organization at Simmons College. This affair proved to be a very successful event. One Friday eve- ning, the Hillel attended a Sabbath service at Temple Beth-El in Lowell, after which a group of members of the Hillel participated in a panel discussion. When the discussion period was over, a question period followed. The discussion group proved to be both very inter- esting and informative. The second half of the business year was opened with a brunch prepared by the members of Hillel. The past year has been a progressive one for Hillel, and the future years will see a larger and increasingly more active Hillel group on the campus of LTI. First Row: J. Litt, L. Goldberg, H.

HALL President The Iona Student Fellowship group is now com- pleting its second year of activities at Lowell Tech. It was established in the Fall of 1953 with the purpose of fulfilling the religious needs of the students of the Protestant faith. The group also encourages the at- tendance of any other interested students. The Iona Student Fellowship meets every other Sunday evening at the Pawtucket Congregational Church, a short distance from the campus. The group has been meeting this year in conjunction with stu- dents from L.S.T.C, prior to the formation of their own group. The meetings consist of a brief devotional service, followed by a guest speaker or an open dis- cussion. The group was privileged in having many local clergymen as well as several of the foreign stu- dents take part in the meetings. Very interesting dis- cussions have been held which were a benefit to all participating. The Iona Student Fellowship is planning to attend many of the Protestant church services in Lowell. It is hoped that this activity will encourage their knowledge of the different types of worship services. It is the hope of the Iona Student Fellowship that a breakfast or similar activity can be organized by all three of the religious organizations at L.T.I. Such an activity would be a fine example of cooperation among the three basic religious beliefs in this country, and would no doubt increase the enrollment of each or- ganization by many of the non-participating students at LTI.

President OFFICERS President Al Gilet, Jr. Vice President Phyllis Murray Treasurer Dick McGrath Recording Secretary Sue DeLorme Corresponding Secretary Jack White The Newman Club of Lowell Technological In- stitute has completed its fourth year as an organization serving the spiritual needs for Catholic students in a secular college. The Newman Club is a Catholic Club of Catholic Culture and Fellowship which fosters the spiritual, intellectual, and social interests of the Catholic stu- dents of Lowell Technological Institute and Lowell State Teachers College. It is a member of the National Newman Club Federation, and of the Boston Prov- ince of National Newman Club Federation. The group has membership of 250 students and faculty members. The officers form an executive com- mittee made up jointly of students from the two schools, and are under the capable and guiding hand of the Chaplain, Reverend John F. Murphy, of Saint Rita ' s parish, Lowell. The organization has had the good forutne to obtain many excellent speakers throughout the year. The first monthly meeting was held in October with Reverend Norman O ' Connor speaking on Newman- ism.

We also initiated our first annual Chris- mas Dance in Cumnock Hall which proved very suc- cessful. The month ended with a Christmas Party for the aged women of Saint Patrick ' s Home here in Lowell. The new year rang in with the life story of John Henry Newman being related by Father Quinn. This was followed by Father Farley, originally from St. Rita ' s but now with the Boston Marriage Bureau, relating the various aspects of the trials of marriage. A cake sale was again held, and our second Commun- ion Breakfast featured Judge John Fenton as the guest speaker. Our first panel discussion was held in April, with three students from each college participating, on the Ways of Saint Thomas Aquinas. The year ended with our last Communion Breakfast being well attended by many faculty and student members. Through these activities, it is the hope of the Chaplain, the outgoing and the incoming officers, that the Newman Club will succeed in the primary service of the organization.

Its member- ship is open to members of the Junior and Senior Classes who are elected on the basis of outstanding scholastic achievement. The requirements for membership are that a stu- dent shall be on the Dean ' s List for six consecutive semesters or that he shall have completed four years of study with a cumulative rating of 3.00. The purpose of the society is twofold: it seeks to provide a stimulus to all undergraduates to work for this honor, and it is also a reward for those who have attained a scholastic standing worthy of recognition. At present, the society has an overall membership of over three hundred, whose Faculty Adviser is Asso- ciate Professor John J. McDonald. Membership in Tau Epsilon Sigma is symbolized by the gold key, which is proudly worn by all its members. It is a great honor to be elected to Tau Epsilon Sigma, and it is hoped that many more students will become members of this society in the future. R. Foye, E. Hayes, C.

The Nucleus is a relatively new society to be in- cluded in the list of the many organizations at Lowell Technological Institute. It was founded seven years ago by a group of students who were seeking some- thing which is not formally taught, but which can be gained only through the mutual sharing of experiences associated with a college career. To share these indus- trial and social experiences, and to prepare its mem- bers for their approaching careers are the two pur- poses of the Nucleus. Membership is restricted to fifteen Juniors and Seniors, who have attained relatively high scholastic averages; and who have participated in many extra- curricular activities at LTI. Each graduating senior nominates a student to take his place in the club. Diner meetings are held once a month. Each mem- ber has the opportunity to conduct one of these meet- ings. The conductor makes all the arrangements, and prepares a talk on a subject of his choice. The speaker for the month acts as chairman of the club, as there are no elected officers. The chairman may also invite one guest to the meeting, the guest being a member of the faculty or any other person so desired.

HARVEY KAYE President OFFICERS President Harvey Kaye Vice President Clif Sampson Secretary Elaine Kenney Treasurer Frank Mann The time is now 7:00 P.M., and this is WLTI, the voice of the Lowell Technological Institute. No other station can make that statement. We are broad- casting on a carrier current of 640 KC or is it 655 KC? We keep getting confused over this, since we started the year on 640 KC and then we switched to 655 KC. Our announcers may get entangled over which frequency it is, but they never get confused in the prime purpose of WLIT — which is to bring the student body, living in the dormitories, the type of music they want to hear, when they want to hear it. We go on the air at 7:00 P.M. For the first part of the evening we bring our audience popular music, rhythm, and blues, jazz, and Latin Americana. Later in the evening, and until midnight, we supply them with quiet music. Since last year, our signal has been strengthened, which means better and clearer reception of our listeners.

Another purpose of WLTI is to give the students a chance to run such an organization on their own. There are many aspects of radio organization in which a student can apply himself. He may join the promo- tion department, advertising department, business de- partment, any of which could be of value in future life. Also, he may join the engineering staff. There he will get experience in electronics and the princi- ples of radio. If he joins the announcing staff, he will get experience in thinking quickly and expressing himself clearly. WLTI is a student organization. It is run for the students, by the students. Our hope is to increase student interest in the station and get more students to participate in the operations of the station. We hope you will all tune in the next time, and until then, This is WLTI the voice of the Lowell Technological Institute, 640 KC on your dial, or is it 655 KC?

During this time, many of our mem- bers have been graduated, with our alumni being scat- tered all over the world representing a great credit to Lowell Technological Institute. During its many years of existence, the Circle has always fulfilled the principal objectives for which it was organized; namely, to promote good fellowship and a better understanding through cultural, social, and technical activities among the students of all races and creeds at Lowell Technological Institute. Many members of the Circle have had the pleasure of addressing various clubs and organizations in the Greater-Lowell area during the past year. In this way, new friendships have been made, and a clearer under- standing of foreign relations has resulted. The Circle members have also visited several mills in the New England area in order to become better acquainted with the American methods in industry. Socially, the Circle has within the last year spon- sored two very successful dances in Eames Lounge. These were very well attended and it is hoped that it will have the opportunity of sponsoring many more in the future. Many groups have been organized for the purpose of discussing social, religious, and eco- nomic questions. Several members of the International Students Circle have taken part in these discussions and have benefited greatly from these groups. Among the sixty-five members of the Circle, citi- zens from twenty-four foreign countries are included. The countries represented are Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Columbia, Equador, For- mosa, Germany, Greece, India, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Panama, Philip- pines, Sweden, and Turkey. The Circle, since its beginning, has been fortunate in having Professor Dow as its Faculty Adviser. His personal interest in each and every one of the foreign students has won for him the respect and the friend- ship of all the members of the Circle. First Row: L. Goglin, A. Yujuico, R. Hall, H.

FRAZEE President OFFICERS Commander Donald Frazee Executive Officer Richard Peckham Treasurer Demetrios Lolos Secretary Chester Petkiewicz Public Information Officer Harold Cotton Operations Officer Al Cohen The Arnold Air Society is a group of cadets selected from the Air Science III and IV classes who have as a common goal the desire to promote the mission of the Air Force. The Society is named after the late General H. H. Hap Arnold, with the first squadron organized at the University of Cincinnati in 1947. Each squad- ron in the A.A.S. is named in honor of an outstanding Air Force Officer. The LTI squadron is named after Major General James F. Phillips, a recent commander of the Air Force Cambridge Research Center. In 1954, the A.A.S. joined with the Air Force Association. This affiliation helps the society to further its mis- sion and gain recognition within the Air Force. Annually, all squadrons send representatives to a National Conclave which will be held this year in Washington, D. C. At these conclaves, problems con- cerning the Society are discussed and solved and the delegates are introduced to the outstanding leaders of the Air Force. Area conclaves are also held during the year for the purpose of solving local problems. The Society here at Tech sponsors such activities as the Drill Team, the Band, the Military Ball, the blood drive, and other social and military functions. In the future, we hope to be able to continue spon- soring these functions, and, in addition, to run many more such affars. Bottom row: C. Chiklis, N. Hamel, J. Lolos, Capt. Kyle, D. Frazee, C.

Sciacca Secretary Robert Crowe Treasurer Frederick Mehan RAYMOND P. SCIACCA President The Flying Club was organized in the Fall of 1952 by a group of students who were interested in safe and economical flying. In the Spring of ' 1953, the Club got its start with the purchase of an Aeronca Champion airplane. Things moved smoothly and much was accomplished. Several students received their solo certifi- cates, while one received a private license. Then, with the club rapidly progressing, disaster struck in November of 1953. The plane was parked under a tree and during a windstorm, several branches fell from the tree, pierced the wings, and ruined the fabric. The co st of repairs was far above the reach of the club. Nothing was done until September of 1954 when a few of the charter members decided to get the club on its feet once more. By the end of November, 1954, the club had more than doubled its membership, and had purchased another plane. Now the club is stronger than ever, and with the adoption of monthly dues, it should not be too long before it purchases a second airplane. First Row: D. Fitzgerald, M. Mashruwala, F. Mehan, A.

CHINESE STUDENTS OFFICERS President Walter Yung Treasurer Robert Yung WALTER YUNG President CHINESE STUDENTS CIRCLE The Chinese Students Circle of Lowell Technological Institute is one of the oldest organization on campus. The aims of the club are to foster friendship among its members, and to create an interest in the extra-curricular activities of the Circle among the other members of the student body. Panel discussions are frequently held at which both technical and social sub- jects are discussed. Also, the members often get together with Chinese students from other colleges. At the present time, the Chinese Students Circle claims a membership of four men, one being from Formosa. All of the students are engaged in the study of American techniques in industrial manufacturing, management, and industrial pro- cessing, so that they may be of help in the advancement of the textile industry in Free China. Above all, the members express their sincere appreciation to Professor James G. Dow, the Faculty Adviser of the Circle, for his whole-hearted guidance.

Chace The Duplicate Bridge League started its activities soon after the school term opened, with the annual banquet held at Carbone ' s, a Maynard restaurant. After, a hearty meal, the team of Ferenback and Rekant, last year ' s champions, received its prizes. Plans were then made for the current season ' s play and a new slate of officers was elected before the meeting came to an end. Prospects looked unusually bright as a majority of last year ' s membership returned to action. The league ' s loss by graduation was made up by an influx of new members, and the group was at an all-time high for the start of the play. Recently, the addition of two new student teams brought the total membership to twenty-four, the highest in hisory. A steady supply of alternates has kept the league operating at top strength. The league still functions as a joint faculty-student activity. At present, it is composed of four faculty teams and eight student teams as follows: FACULTY Prof. Block and Sgt. Taylor Profs. Chace and Lisien Col. Kelly and Capt. Kyle Mr. Kopycinski and Prof. Peirent STUDENT Berger and Ponty Eisenberg and Krouss Ferenbach and Rekant Ganz and Hoffman Glick and Jariwals Kaplan and Stein Mashruwala and Shah Rosen and Silverman The group is now engaged in the tightest race for the championship since the league was formed. After four playing sessions, the first and eighth teams are sepa- rated by less than twenty points. With five or six sessions scheduled, any team has a chance to win the championship of the LTI Duplicate Bridge League for 1954-55. First Row: M. Taylor, L. Block, J. Kopycinski, S. Krouss, W.

' AF ROTC BAND NORM HAMEL Band Leader Among the many student organizations at Lowell Tech, the one to receive the greatest bolstering by the large freshman enrollment was the AFROTC Band. This organization doubled its size this year, having benefited by the addition of some twenty-one fresh- men. Under the direction of Mr. Basil Larkin, prominent local musician, this thirty-two piece aggregation has been acclaimed as the finest marching band ever to exist at Tech. A new member of the AFROTC staff, Lieutenant John J. Beall, has taken over the position of tactical officer. Lt. Beall is no stranger to the music world, having studied at Ohio State University in the music division. The squadron commander for the past year was Cadet Captain Norman A. Hamel. Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Charles K. Chicklis served in the capacity of assistant conductor. As in the past, it was the custom of the AFROTC Band to perform at all functions under the auspices of the AFROTC wherein a band was needed. These included reviews, retreats, parades, formal ceremonies, civil ceremonies, and benefits. A highlight of the Band ' s activities in 1954 was its participation in a parade and review at the Textile Machinery Exposi- tion held in Atlantic City, New Jersey. In addition, the band also made an excellent showing as it per- formed at the annual Golden Gloves tournament in Lowell.

Gentle Robert Keenan Armand Bergeron Women ' s Glee Club Elaine Kenney Carol Dunn Paula Molloy Marcella Czekanski Kathryn Connors ELAINE KENNEY RICHARD PECKHAM The Men ' s and Women ' s Glee Clubs were organized in the fall of 1945 to fill an evident gap in LTI ' s extra-curricular activities. They were chartered separately through the co-ordination of a single manager, Allan Marcus. The first appearance of the Glee Clubs occured at the Christmas Convocation in Cumnock Hall last December. Combined, the Glee Clubs number approximately fifty voices. Both groups are under the able direction and guidance of Mr. Arthur N. Thompson. The purpose of both organizations is to provide musical guidance and appre- ciation to the m ale and female students enrolled at LTI. A second objective of the Glee Clubs is to provide enjoyment and entertainment for their members and their audiences. Any student at Lowell Technological Institute enrolled in a degree course is eligible for membership in the organizations. Faculty advisers for the Glee Clubs are Professor Stuart L. Mandell and Lt. John J. Beall, a member of the AFROTC staff at LTI. Both Glee Clubs plan, in the near future, to give a series of public appearances both at the school and in the New England area.

It has grown in this very short time into a relatively large group, now unmbering in the thirties. One of the main objectives of the organization is to be of service to LTI. For this reason, some of the members come to school a week early to take the freshmen identification pictures. Following this, we took pictures for LTI publicity and have had these pictures printed in magazines and newspapers all over the United States. As a service to the students, we have taken pictures at the fraternity formals and the Military Ball. The club members also take pictures for the Pickout and the TEXT and, in addition, our most recent work was in taking the identification photos for the Seniors. One of our big affairs this year was a Ski trip. Approximately 18 members spent the day at Mount Sunapee. The colored pictures of the skiers all came out black and blue, but everyone had an excellent time, including Tina. We are looking forward to an increased member- ship next year, and hope to be able to sponsor more affairs in the future. First Row: H. Nestor, M. Cote, J. Cryan, J. Knox, P. Canovai, L. Block, A.

The primary trouble lay in the fact that the boys were inexperienced, and that the team never seemed to click together at the right times. Each position was filled by a potentially good ballplayer, but it seemed that on the field or at bat the team did not coordinate as a unit. The season opened with a victory over Suf- folk in which Lowell showed promise. Andy Pelletier turned in a fine hurling job, which was consonant with his performances during the remainder of the season. The score in that game was 7-2, with the highlight being the integrated team fielding and hitting, which was rarely seen thereafter. In the second game, the highly trained and classy U.N.H. nine was en- countered. Although the Techmen matched them in hits, it appeared as though they couldn ' t get enough men on base in order to make them count. The score ended up a lop-sided 11-2. Tech ' s next clash came with another strong rival — the boys from the University of Ver- mont. This game saw Lowell go down to a 13-0 loss because of weak hitting and fielding. Two days later, the Yarnallmen played one of their finest games only to lose it 4-0 to Pro- vidence College. Providence, having a very strong team, found the Terriors anything but mm . . . The High and the Mighty a pushover. Both teams played fine errorless ball, but again weak hitting turned out to be the deciding factor. Early in May, Coach Rusty Yarnall took his team north for the Vermont trip where they suffered two losses from St. Michaels and from Norwich Military Academy. During this trip, team spirit ran high despite the defeats. On their return, the squad beat New Eng- land College by jumping to an early lead and holding on to it to gain a 10-7 victory. Shorlty after, the Techmen lost a heartbreaker to Clark. The LTI boys saw an early lead dwindle away and finally vanish in a 6-5 upset. The loss was the first of a five game losing streak which saw the Terriers go down to defeat before Keene, A.I.C., New Bedford, and Worcester. In a thrilling game with Assumption, the team, backed by an outstanding pitching job by Pel- letier, came from behind to win 7-3. In the final game of the season, Lowell managed to pull one out against Curry in a well played en- counter culminating in a 9-7 decision. Although the ' 54 team had only a fair rec- ord, the squad learned a great deal which should prove to be very useful in the coming season. A majority of the club was made up of fresh- men and sophomores, the greater part of whom will be back on the ' 55 roster. Hank Powell, guardian of the hot corner, was elected team captain for the second year in a row and is a most definitely an outstanding hope. The loss of Andy Pelletier who was one of the mainstays of the ' 54 pitching staff should be offset by the addition of two very promising sophomores; namely, Finegan and Lynch. Both saw action last year and proved that they had a good deal of stuff. At the back stop in the ' 54 season was a snappy freshman by the name of Buddy Walsh who had as much team spirit and enthusiasm as could be desired. At first base, we find Jim 68 Righl D tl the (enter RECORD LTI Opp. Suffolk 7 2 University of New Hampshire 2 11 University of Vermont 13 Providence College 4 St. Michaels 1 11 Norwich 5 22 New England College 10 7 Clark 5 6 Worcester Poly 6 Keene 3 9 A.I.C 2 5 New Bedford 4 7 Assumption 7 3 Curry 9 7 Won 4 — Lost 10 Keohane who was always a threat to hit that long ball as well as being a steady fielder at the sack. At second and short were the Keystone Kids, Bill Mahoney and Franky Taplin, respec- tively. Both were hustlers in the field as well as at the plate. At third was Hank Powell who was outstanding in the field and at the plate, and who played the most consistent ball on •t ik the club. The outfield was made up of Al Peterson, Eric Fagan, and Jim Pearsall, the lat- ter of whom has one of the finest arms seen around here for quite a while. Fagan who took turns in the outfield and at the mound was one of the steadiest men on the team. At the plate, he was second only to Powell, and on the bases, he was unbeatable. The remainder of the team was made up of Dick Aldrich, Lenny Sheroff, Sy Rekant, Mike Ivanowicz, Ed Glasheen, Gerry Gallagher, Joe Freeman, Stan Stein, and Marty Birnbaum. 69 BASKETBALL JIM LOLOS Captain Despite the loss of last season ' s high scorer and captain, Larry Horowitz, the LTI court contingent looked optimistically forward to a successful campaign. As has been the vogue in the past few seasons, the team ' s hope for success was placed in the hands of outstanding freshman talent. The only senior on the squad was the play-making captain, Jim Lolos. Coach Morey was very disappointed at the turnout for varsity tryouts. However, as he was to find out as the season progressed, the case was to be quality not quantity. The freshman finds this year were Bernie Heumann, Ernie Glantz, and Little Lenny Edelson. Sophomores Rick Silver, Marty Booch Birnbaum, Dave Hannon, and Lew Miller were counted on heavily to strengthen the squad. Ruf-n-Reddy Ed Koza, considered in sporting circles as one of the most aggresive court-man ever to don a varsity uniform at the Institute, was to offer rebounding depth along with Dave Perlstein. The Tech team tried to make up what they lacked in experience with aggression, speed, and the will to win. Lowell inaugurated its season with a triumph over Gordon College by a score of 51-44. This first-game-of-the-season-win seems to be a trade- mark of Morey-coached basketball teams. The encounter marked the fiirst appearance of the freshman phenom Bernie Heumann who quickly asserted his basketball prowess by scoring 17 points. Birnbaum, shooting from the outside, also hit double figures with 11 points. Playing at home again, the Lowell Hoom- sters thrilled the fans by dropping a hard-fought game to Merrimack College, 74-70. With slight- ly more than one minute to go, the score was 69-69. Heumann with 26 points brought nos- talgia to some of the surviving seniors and jun- iors who reminisced the feats of the contro- versial Chris Chingros. Outstanding in this game were Dave Hannon and freshman Ernie Glantz scoring 18 and 10 points respectively. Tech hit the ski trails to Durham, New Hampshire where UNH was the host. It seems repetitious to state what occurred. As usual, LTI was completely overwhelmed and over run by a superior team. This year the score was 91-58. Keene Teachers then invaded the Tech gym- nasium and defeated Morey ' s charges by a score of 74-64. Lowell managed to come within one point of Keene midway into the second half, but could not gain enough impetus to sustain a winning drive. Boom-Boom Birnbaum was high scorer with 17 points followed by captain Jim Lolos with 15. The Moreymen dropped their fourth con- secutive game to Worcester Poly, 68-51. Birn- baum again led the scoring with 14 points while Heumann plunked in 12 points. The next contest against Suffolk turned out to be the most thrilling game of the year.

Suffolk managed to get control of the ball and scored on a three point play sending the game into overtime with the score 90-90. Lowell Tech finally succumbed 100-97. This contest saw Heumann ripping the cords for 35 points, and Birnbaum 26. Able support came from Dave Hannon who hooped in 18 points. In this free scoring contest several rec- ords were smashed. For the first time, a team scored 100 points in the Tech gymnasium. The total of 197 points is also a new gymnasium record. Incidentally, in scoring 97 points, al- though in a losing cause, the LTI team reached its highest total in its history. Assumption of Worcester handed the Tech- stileers a crushing defeat, 75-53. Clark followed this defeat by ripping the faltering Lowellmen, 91-72 in another free scoring contest. Getting their second wind and also their second win, LTI snapped its seven game losing streak by walloping Curry, 96-72. The Terriers had four men in double figures in this contest. High man was Heumann again with 33 points. Birnbaum ' s 15, Lolos ' 13, and Krusher Koza ' s 16 points rounded out the big guns. Putting two wins back to back to form a winning streak, Lowell racked New England College, 73-54. Bernie, the Touch, was high scorer with 18 points, while Marty Birnbaum chipped in with 15 points. Koza and freshman Rudy Koczera swished the hoops for 10 points. An interesting point that is brought to light is that at the end of the first eight games the Moreymen were shooting field goals at a 39% clip while their foul shooting was only 43%. At that time, the best field goal percentage was Heumann ' s 58.6%. while the best foul shooter was Rick Silver with 63-3%. The New York trip once again was dis- astrous.

Ac Cambridge, MIT eked out a 65-59 win over a resurging team of Lowell Tech that dom- inated the backboards by taking 40 rebounds. At this writing, there were three games re- maining on this season ' s schedule to be played. In the first twelve games, Bernie Heumann averaged 19 ( points per game. Two other Techmen were in double figures; they were Birnbaum with 11.0 and Hannon with 10.0. 72 SOCCER Once again, the 1954 edition of the Lowell Tech Soccer Team has concluded a very success- ful season. Although dropping the last two games of the season, the Moreymen finished with a very respectable 6-2-1 record. The soc- cermen ' s record over the past four seasons has been quite impressive. During this period, Tech has lost only three out of the thirty games that have been played. The booters boast one of the strongest squads ever assembled in the New England area. Tech got off to an excellent start by de- feating Clark University 4-0. The goals were scored by George Hasbun and Carlos Ceppas. with Ceppas accounting for three of the Tech tallies. With Leo Aguilar and Piet Bodenhorst leading the defensive charge, Tech held the op- position scoreless. Tech ' s second shutout vic- tory of the season came against Worcester Tech by a 3-0 score. This victory, the fifteenth con- secutive win, was highlighted once again by a powerful Tech defense. The scoring during the course of the afternoon was distributed among Carlos Ceppas, Capt. Piet Bodenhorst, and Abe Okorodudu. The next game on the Tech schedule was postponed. This was to be against Bradford Durfee at Fall River. The booters then showed their great offensive ability by thoroughly drubbing American Inter- national College by an 8-0 count. Sergio Lince, George Obermann, and Carlos Ceppas put on the greatest exhibition of offensive soccer ever seen on the Tech field. Lince accounted for three of the Tech goals, Obermann booted home three, and Ceppas hammered two into the AIC goal. A great deal of credit must also be given to the Lowell defense.

Our only goal was scored by Carlos Ceppas in the first period. Playing on a rainsoaked field, the Lowell Tech soccer team recorded its fourth victory of the season against one defeat with a lopsided 7-1 decision over New Bedford Textile. Ceppas and Teubal each scored two goals for the locals; while Ricardo Villa, Jorge Viladoms, and Abe Okorodudu ac- counted for one each. Leo Aguilar sparkled on defense for Tech, while Jim Lowell played his usual fine game at the nets. Brandeis was the next team to taste defeat at the hands of the torrid Terrier attack. The score this time was 8-0. Tech next followed with a 7-1 massacre of New England College. Ceppas and Villa ac- counted for three goals each, while Obermann booted home the other tally. Coach Dave Morey ' s forces, who upon conclusion of the games boasted a record of six wins and one time, jumped off to a 3-0 lead in the first period, added two more in the second stanza and one each in the third and fourth periods. Harvard was the next obstacle for LTI to overcome. Unfortunately, the Harvard men proved to be a little too strong for Tech forces, and the Techmen dropped a 3-2 decision. The goals were scored by Carlos Ceppas, who was paid a great tribute by the Harvard coach upon conclusion of the game. This game was the first loss of the season for our booters, but even in defeat, the Terriers gave a good account of themselves. Brown University provided the op- position in Tech ' s final game of the season. It was a rugged game which saw Brown nip the booters 1-0 in an overtime period. This year ' s team possessed balance, speed, and depth as was indicated by their fine all around play over the course of the season. They proved themselves to be great competitors in every sense of the word, showing courtesy both on and off the playing field. The 1954 team will long be remembered by the student body here at LTI for being a fighting, colorful, and winning band of athletes. « . 5 lX. vA , 74 RECORD LTI Opp. Clark University 4 Worcester Tech 3 AIC 8 Tufts College 1 1 New Bedford 7 1 Brandeis 8 New England College 7 1 Harvard 2 3 Brown 1 75 LACROSSE Tech ' s entry into the Lacrosse world last season compiled a 2 and 3 record. Lacrosse, a sport which is slowly gaining the support and interest of the student body, made somewhat of a comeback here at the Institute. Although apparently not impressive, the record of the team showed a marked improvement over the pre- vious year ' s team. Actually, the team got off to a very unfor- tunate start. The Morey-maulers traveling northward to Durham, New Hampshire, faced the U.N.H. Strong-men and lost the encounter 7-2. In this game, senior Piet Bodenhorst tal- lied twice. Tech ' s Cross-wielders then met Nichols Junior College only to taste the pangs of defeat once more. Jousting in a torrential downpour, the Moreymen scored three times in the first period, but alas so did the Nicholites. Neophyte Lew Miller, Earl Sidelinker, and Bo- denhorst each scored in this period. Lowell fought valiantly in the remaining periods but came out on the short end of the ultimate 8-4 score. The next tilt placed the Techmen on the road of victory. They defeated Tufts 6-3, in a rough and tumble game which saw no less than twenty-four penalties meted out to the com- batants. Don Doull, Sidelinker, and Bodenhorst each scored twice in this game. This foray also showed the splendid play of Bill Strzelewicz, Captain Dave Austin, Floyd Frank, Jim Ganz, and Rod Madden. The Lowell chargers reached a .500 season momentarily when they smashed New England College 6-3. Thus, the stage was set for the final and Left to Right, Sitting: Toussieh, Krouss, Ganz, Doull, Austin, Sidlinker, Nichols, Popper.

The day arrived. LTI versus Brown. Was LTI to have a winning season? Lowell jumped out to a quick start, scoring twice in the first period. This com- manding lead, however, did not last, and the resurgent Brown Lacrosse-men led 4-3 at the half time. The final score was 10-4 in favor of Brown. Therefore, Tech finished the season with a 2 and 3 record. The season records show that the attack was led by Piet Bodenhorst with 8 goals, fol- lowed by Don Doull and Earl Sidelinker with five goals each. Others noted for their fine play were George Landry, Jim Lowell, Othon Mavro, Rino Pellissier, Stu Krouss, and Bob Swift.

The Techmen, captained by Warren Rushton and ably supported by Frank Kapler, Paul Har- rington, and John McNamara, rolled up an impressive win of I8V2 to 8 x 2 in this match. Enthused by this early victory, the squad rolled on to Springfield where they met their opponents and vanquished them 27-0 in this encounter. Paul Harrington and Dave Shay played excellent games. At this point in the season, tragedy struck the squad. Every senior on the team was unable to play because of placement interviews. With- out the aid of the senior stalwarts, the team proved an easy mark for the golfers from Tufts and Dartmouth. Both teams defeated Tech 27-0. However, it is well to note that the Tuft ' s team was the inter-collegiate champion last year. With a 2 and 2 record, the Lowell golfers faced a below .500 season as they met Clark. But key shots when they were needed and iron nerves on the green were the earmarks of the Lowell Tech golfer that day. The Clark team was defeated 9V2-lVi- The boys are looking forward to another successful and interesting season. Paul Harring- ton is the newly elected captain. Dick Savage and Billy King, who are now sophomores will be back with the team, and oh yes, Dave Twisty Torchia is still the team ' s caddy. RECORD LTI Opp. Babson Institute l Vi %Vi Springfield College 27 Tufts College 27 Dartmouth College 27 Clark University l9Vi IV2 GIRLS ' BASKETBALL CAROL DUNN ANN KOCHANEK Last year marked the beginning of a girl ' s basketball team here at Lowell Tech. Although the coeds did not play any games on the Tech court, they entered the YWCA Young Adult League and ran away with top honors ■ victories and no defeats. six At this time even, though the girls were using the name Lowell Tech, they were not recognized by the college as a college team. But to show its approval of the girls ' college spirit, the Varsity Club gave each girl on the team an award on Sports Night. This year, the team has improved in more ways than one. Professor David Pfister vol- unteered his services to the team and has per- formed all the duties of an excellent coach. With the direction and guidance of Prof. Cush- ing and Prof. Pfister, the coed ' s hope they will soon have a schedule set up in which they play colleges all over Massachusetts. This will cer- tainly help to put Lowell Tech on the map as a coed college. Also with the addition of thirteen freshman girls, five of whom have shown great talents in the athletic sport, the Lowell Tech Girl ' s Bas- ketball Team has been established. This marks the first year that is has been recognized by the college, and the first write-up in the Pick- out that it has received. Its season began with a game between the Upperclass Girls and the Freshman Girls during Orientation Week. Guess who won? The Freshmen by a score of 28-26. Since December, the girls have played four games with a record of three wins and one de- feat; but the season isn ' t over yet. The team also played an exhibition game against the Var- sity Club during the Military Ball Weekend. The 1954-55 girl ' s basketball team has as co-captains, Carol Dunn, a junior, and Ann Kochanek, a freshman. The team consists of Marcella Czekanski and Jean Cryan (juniors), Fotine Velantzas (senior), Frances Delaney, Helen Nestor, and Therese Polak ( sophomores ) , and Pauline Tremblay, Toby Koffman, Mar- garet Alexander and Elaine Garside (freshmen) . TENNIS RECORD LTI Opp. Clark 9 New Hampshire 6 3 Merrimack 5 Assumption 4 3 Keene Teachers 5 4 CAPTAIN BUD LEVENTHAL The Tech Tennis Team, riding in the wake of one of its most successful seasons, triumphed over every team which had contributed to its 1953 winless effort. The only loss — to Clark — came at the beginning of the year when, due to excessive rain, the net men were forced to play without a practice session. The second game began LTI ' s winning streak. An initial loss by Bud Leventhal put them behind, but this position was immediately reversed when Steve Adler, Carlos Ceppas, and Don Legow put their wins back to back to send LTI into the lead, where they remained to win the match 6-3. This win sparked the squad, for in their next battle against Merrimack, they won the day in straight matches. The last two encounters were the most ex- citing of the year. The first of these found Tech pitted against a strong Assumption team. In- deed, their first two men were exceptionally strong, but they lacked the depth that the Low- ell squad boasted. After losing the first two mathces, Ceppas, Dave Kwok, and Legow won to put LTI into the lead. Assumption took the first doubles match, but Ceppas and Kowk, the most reliable doubles team on the club, won the last match to clinch the victory. The net-men then were to meet Keene Teachers. Once again, Tech fell behind in the early matches. Bud Leventhal once again had to face the roughest opposition the opponents could muster. The LTI men came back to tie the score, and the last match found Legow and Army Greenhall, who was playing in his first match, behind after the first set. However, the team bounced back to win the next two sets, and the match went to Lowell. Unfortunately, every man on the Tennis Team has graduated except Ceppas and Legow. Professor John J. MacLaughlan, the team ' s able coach, will have to look to the freshman class to continue the team ' s fine record.

Lambert Vice President Hubert J. McCoy Secretary Paul Donovan The Rifle Club is an affiliation of the Var- sity Rifle Team and the AFROTC Rifle Team. Last year ' s club finished eighth out of eigh- teen teams in this section in competition for the Hearst Trophy. The matches are conducted through the mail, with LTI sending its score to the other schools, where the results are tab- ulated. A few of the universities with which postal matches have been fired include the University of Hawaii, the University of Florida, Princeton University, the University of Utah, and Bradley University. Shoulder to shoulder matches have been scheduled with Northeastern University and various other institutions in the immediate area. Under the able instruction of Captain George C. Mild, this year ' s team has gained considerable experience; and is expected to complete this season with a winning record. The turnout for the Rifle Club this year has been the largest in the history of LTI. Over ninety candidates, among them two co-eds, have made application and have fired at the Lowell range. With this increased interest in the Rifle Club, it is certain that the organization will remain a permanent part of LTI ' s exrta-curricu- lar program. VARSITY CLUB One of the more recently formed organiza- tions at LTI is the Varsity Club. It was organ- ized in 1950, and in five years it has done much in the way of improving athletes at the Institute. The main function of the Varsity Club is to unite all lettermen from the varsity teams into one common organization in order that they may work for the betterment of athletic con- ditions in the school and to promote annual events between the faculty, the student body, the fraternities, and other colleges. With the help of faculty advisor Professor James W. Bell, the Varsity Club has initiated the sale of refreshments at basketball games. The proceeds of these sales go toward the im- provements of athletic conditions at the Insti- tute. So far, this venture has been very profit- able. The Varsity Club has sponsored many func- tions, some of which have included pep rallies, inter-fraternity sports, and the always successful Sports Night, where the athletes receive their letters. Keen interest has been displayed in the IFC sports which, this past year, included bas- ketball, softball, and bowling. The pep rally was also very well attended, and the interest shown at this function is sure to bring about many similar affairs. PRESIDENT E. FAGAN This year, President Eric Fagan has put into practice the idea of getting all teams visiting LTI, which is a definite step in conveying to strangers a most favorable impression of our college. The club also works together with the Athletic Association and the Athletic Commit- tee to promote a general feeling of school spirit, and to attempt to improve the overall athletic facilities at LTI. It is hoped that in the near future the mem- bership in the organization will be increased. With an increased membership, the club will be able to further the interest in athletics at Tech, and therefore, will be able to realize more fully the purposes to which the club is dedicated.

Joyful as this occasion is, there remains within each member ' s heart a trace of sadness as we bid farewell to three outstanding members. Though they have left us to seek their place in life, memories of the fine and happy times which we shared will never be forgotten. The meetings and parties at Fran Delaney ' s house will best be remembered by the upperclassmen. It was at the first meeting that the elections were held and Fotine Velantzas was made president. Her in- itiative and talent, and the members ' cooperation helped make Phi Sigma Rho ' s sketch at the All-Tech Weekend a roaring success. Though the Weekend offered gaiety, it also brought about the information of a more closely knit group. Many hidden talents were brought forth, among them the ingenuity of Fran Delaney and Terry Polak. They put words to music and came up with a song which every member is proud to sing, OUR SORORITY SONG. Because this song had become to us a true expression of our feelings for the Sorority, each of the pledges was as- signed to commit it to memory prior to initiation. The initiation was cleverly planned by our three sophomores, Helen, Terry, and Fran. A touch of originality sprung up as the freshmen were sent out on a treasure hunt in which riddles, carefully created by Carol and Jean, served as directions to the treasure. They were not easily solved and credit must be given to the freshmen for their perseverance in arriving at the final goal. As tradition has it, the freshmen were introduced into the fraternity houses where they PHI SIGMA RHO SORORITY First Row: F. Libbey, N. Geary, T. Velantzas, H. Nestor, F. Delaney, T. Polak.

Having survived the ordeals to which the upperclass- men subjected them, they proved their worthiness in being members of Phi Sigma Rho. On the evening of February 11, 1955, in the presence of all upper- classmen, Professor Rosatto and several alumnae, their names were officially recorded in the sorority. Among the many activities, basketball has become the favorite with the girls here at Tech. The ma- jority of the girls willingly support the boys ' team by their spirited cheers at each game, and in their spare time manage to engage in the sport themselves. Sharing the limelight as the star basketball players are Marcella, Carol, Pauline Tremblay, and Ann Kochanek. Their success is not only due to their individual ability, but also the team work developed by their coach, Mr. David Pfister. The coeds here at Tech have also become an important asset to the various organizations on campus. Throughout the year, the majority actively partici- pate in the Tech Players. Some of the girls, we are proud to say, are associated with the staffs on both the Pickout and the Text. Occasionally, they display their literary talents by having articles published in r either the Text or the Pickout. At other times, they like many others remain in the background and per- form the unsung tasks so necessary to the success of any yearbook or school paper. Just recently, the formation of the Girls ' Glee Club, has opened up another avenue into which the girls may direct their talents. In the early stages of the Glee Club, the fine responses to their performances at the Christmas Convocation encouraged the girls to continue in their efforts to improve the vocal group and make it a permanent part of their exrta-curricu- lar activities. The idea of the girl ' s glee club was brought to reality by the extensive efforts of Elaine Kenney. Phi Sigma Rho salutes you, Elaine, for your fine work. Scholastically, the girls hold various honors, and a word of congratulations must be extended to Nancy Geary on her admittance into the honor society of Tau Epsilon Sigma, as well as to all the girls on the Dean ' s List. We say au revoir to our three sisters, we extend our best wishes to all, and especially to Elaine and Nancy on their forthcoming marriages. 91 C. SAMSON President DELTA KAPPA PHI Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity is a brotherhood, rich in tradition, dating back to 1898. In that year, it was formed at the Philadelphia Textile Institute. Four short years later, the Beta Chapter was organized at what was then the Lowell Textile School. In the year 1905, the Beta Chapter was incorporated into the National Organization. At present, there are active chap- ters of Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity located at North Carolina State, Georgia Institute of Tech- nology, New Bedford Textile Institute, and Philadelphia Textile Institute. We are a professional fraternity, and our members are chosen as men of character on their merits. Our foremost objective shall be in the future, as it has been in the past, to be faithful to our Greek letters, which stand for Duty, Knowledge, and Friendship. We of Delta Kappa Phi feel that we have good reason to be proud of our members through their active participation in the many extra- curricular activities offered here at Tech. Many of the members hold important positions in the Arnold Air Society, AATCC, ASME, Circle K. Flying Club, Hillel, Iona Fellowship, Newman Club, International Students Circle, Photography Club, Tech Players, WLTI, and the newly formed men ' s Glee Club. Beside avid participation in interfraternity sports, many Dekes have also been sent to the field First Row: Prof. Daley, Prof. Peirent, G. Mandikos, C. Sampson, P. Swain, R. MacAusland, Prof. Fox, C.

Not only did Hell Week, 1954 add many improvements to the house, but it added a con- siderable number of outstanding men to the rolls of Delta Kappa Phi. Hell Week was followed by formal induction ceremonies, and our annual induction banquet, after which elec- tions for the forthcoming year were held. The last official function of the school year was the fraternity formal, which was held at the Laton Hotel in Nashua, New Hampshire. Even the New England spring rains could not dampen the spirits which prevailed throughout this wonderful weekend. June came, and with it, Commencement. To this wonderful day was added a slight twinge of sorrow at the thought of our departing broth- ers. With summer recess, the Dekes once again travelled to their homes scattered to the four points of the compass. A few remained in Lowell to attend summer school and seek em- ployment in the hinterland. These brothers spent their spare time putting a few more im- provements into the house, not to mention swimming, sailing, picnicking, and in general, having a good time at the nearby resorts. In September, with the new school year, the Dekes got off to a flying start. From the IFC Weekend in October the men from Bur- gess Street took home the Scholastic Trophy for the previous school year, and a D K lassie was crowned Queen of the weekend. The months that followed brought rushing stags, and, of course, our annual Yahmo Party. The evening was highlighted by the contest for the title of Mr. and Mrs. Yahmo, followed by quite a bit of excellent entertainment. This party was, as in the years past, a great success. New Year ' s Eve 1954, saw many of the Brothers assembled at the house to give 1954 a gentle shove out the door, and welcome 1955, a year which has all the earmark s of the best yet. After a very pleasant and much needed va- cation, the annual Hobo Party made the thought of returning to school for the first semester finals much brighter. The entire first floor of the house was transformed into one huge hobo camp, complete with camp fire. The dancing and merrymaking lasted well on into the morn- ing, and when it was over, it was a very tired but happy crew of hoboes who left their eve- ning ' s camp for another year. The year 1955, marks the Golden Anniver- sary of the incorporation of the Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity of America as a national organ- ization. This year, it is also once again the honor of the Beta Chapter to extend their greet- ings to the other chapters of Delta Kappa Phi for our annual National Convention. We are eagerly awaiting the 29th and 30th of April which will be the culmination of the long months of planning which are being put into this event. We, of Delta Kappa Phi are looking for- ward to the remainder of the school year. This year, thus far, has been one of many pleasant memories, as have those of the past, and we hope to continue along these lines, proud of our past, confident of our future, both for the college and the fraternity, and happy that Delta Kappa Phi has had a part in transforming boys into men, and promoted a spirit of fraternalism which will live as long as we. 95 PHI PSI OFFICERS President Carl Stone Vice President George Landry Treasurer Paul Harrington Corresponding Secretary Fred Obear Recording Secretary Al Gilet Phi Psi Fraternity was founded at the Phil- adelphia College of Textile Engineering on March 18, 1903. Five students banded together at that time and dedicated themselves to the following ideals: first, to promote good fel- lowship among the men in schools having a textile curriculum; second, to encourage a high standard in textile endeavors; and third, to as- sist, by every honorable means, the advancement of its members. In the following year, Gamma Chapter was chartered at the then Lowell Tex- tile School. The fraternity continued to grow during the years until, at present, there are nine active student chapters and twelve alumni chap- ters. Phi Psi is the largest professional textile fraternity in the world today, and its alumni are among the most respected men in the tex- tile industry. It is realized by Phi Psi that, in order to achieve the ideals to which it was dedicated, a diversified membership is essential. Em- phasis is not placed on either the social or scholastic aspect of a member ' s life. To afford a maximum contribution to LTI, it is felt that a happy medium should be achieved in both. The acme of the social season came last May with our annual Fraternity Formal, held at the Beaver Brook Country Club.

Seen by the Tech Players. An excellent dinner was served and the members were reluctant to end the festivities, journeying back to the fra- ternity house for more merry-making until the early hours of morning. For the final event of the social season, we were all subjected to that popular evening of frivolity commonly referred to as the Senior Stag. This was extended into the last holiday of the semester, Upstream Day. Canobie Lake was the scene for this celebrated day ' s activities. And so, Phi Psi came to the close of another successful school year. During the summer, many of the members helped to redecorate the inside of the house. With the administration ' s approval on members living at the house, new vigor was displayed as members chose rooms and attempted to make them more livable. The third floor was again opened, and all rooms received a fresh coat of paint. We were actually sparkling when we returned in September to await the onslaught of the multitudinous freshman class. And, in particular, we were returning for a very special year. This was our 50th Anniversary, and plans which we had long been discussing were soon to become a reality. Our social chairmen for this year were Jim Walsh and Jack White. The opening event of the social season was the traditional Wel- come Back Party. Joining the list of married couples at this affair was Bill Frei. The mem- bers also thanked Eric Fagan at this time for his views of Chicago which they had received during the summer. Prior to the rushing season, the IFC decided to sponsor one day during which interested freshmen could be introduced to the four fra- ternities at Tech. Sunday, October 3rd, was set aside for this purpose. Bill Strzelewicz took charge of the activities at Phi Psi, and displayed his ability as Senior Warden. And so, we en- tered into another rushing season, holding the regular three stag parties and two date parties. All five affairs were very successful, and the walls of the house vibrated with song and good cheer. Who can forget the noise at the Shipwreck Party ... or the outfits of Jim and Marie Walsh at the Pajama Party ... or the gaiety at the stag held for Frank Taplin ... or the antics of the children, and members, at the Orphan ' s Christmas Party? Al O ' Heir was in charge of this last affair, and he had a tough job keeping the walls of the house under the roof. One of the most memorable affairs of the fall social season was the IFC Weekend. Phi Psi was awarded the trophy for the best Choral Group, which was directed by Jack White. The skit, which was prepared by Eric Fagan, was also enjoyed by all who attended. At a pre-Christmas Convocation, it was an- nounced that Chet Petkiewicz and Ray Foye were nominated to Tau Epsilon Sigma. Also, at the same time, Bob Schiek was awarded the Olney Book Prize. Thus, we reached the end of another year, 1954, and we ushered in the new year in our own quiet way. We returned to school only to discover that alumni Don Wark and Tom Garvey had be- come engaged over the holidays. June wed- dings are planned for both. Best of Luck, kids! Early in January, Mr. Marcel Dursin and Mr. Maurice Dursin, father and uncle of brother Marcel Dursin, were made honorary members of Phi Psi. Both were sponsored by Gamma Chapter. In April of this year, we held our 50th Anniversary celebration. Most of the festivities took place at the Hotel Beaconsfield in Brook- line. The highlight of the three days was an Anniversary Banquet which was very well at- tended by alumni and active members of the three New England schools having Phi Psi Chapters. President Martin J. Lydon was the guest speaker. Many friendships were made at this affair, and many more were renewed. The brothers of Gamma welcomed this holiday from classes and attended en masse. However, not all of Phi Psi ' s success was social. During the past year, many of the major officers in most student organizations were held by Phi Psi men. Some groups in which we were well represented include the Student Coun- cil, the Tech Players, the Nucleus, the Varsity Club, and many others. Phi Psi men were some of the outstanding players on the athletic teams at LTI. leaders of student publications, and mem- bers of every student organization. Our basket- ball team copped the title last year, and is well on its way to another crown this year. Thus, another eventful year at Gamma Chap- ter has come to a close. However, the memories of times gone by will be ever present to remind us of the many happy moments spent at Phi Psi. 99 OFFICERS Rex L. Silverman Archon H. Ponty K. O. E S.

SILVERMAN President The Pilam House has stood these many years near the crest of Livingston Avenue. The sacred inner sanctum of the fraternity, often referred to as the House on the Hill, has been the scene of many a festive affair, wild debate, brawl, and other events both sedate and noisy which go far toward making the fraternity a unique organization. The memories, the tradition behind Pilam, the friendships, these will long be remembered by the departing seniors. It is to these nineteen brothers that this remembrance is dedicated. None will forget the struggling Pi Lambda Phi, born Sigma Omega Psi on the Lowell Textile School campus thirty-four years ago. Nor that in 1949 this organization became a part of a great national frater- nity, Massachusetts Alpha Epsilon chapter of Pi Lambda Phi. This heritage is inscribed in the minds of all brothers.

These events and many others like them are but sidelights, just normal occurrences in the life of a Pilam. The parties and weekends! Ah! Those were the days and nights. The feverish activity ready for those parties; last-minute dates, and the hoping for the best; the house clean and neat, expectantly awaiting the female invasion.

The Christmas Party, when every brother became a Father for a Day. The happy smile on the face of one of the orphans when a present was given, or a frater cooed baby talk. The cartoons, the cake, candy, and ice cream. The brothers found themselves enjoy- ing it even more than the children. We remember the Pilams on the softball field, on the basketball court, and demonstrating their skill with duck pins. The athletically inclined brothers 102 certainly came through. With a blinding fast ball, a slow curve and batting power, the softball trophy was safely tucked away. The Tuesday night bowling ses- sions; twisting and turning to guide the ball for a coveted strike or a winning spare. The final realiza- tion that Pi Lam has won the bowling title. The bas- ketball court in the gym, where the sounds of pound- ing feet and dribbling ball were mingled with cries of joy and groans of sorrow. The utter disbelief when the junior Pilams dared challenge the invincible seniors at touch football. The victory of the chal- lengers still rankles, and the thought that many juniors still bear scars is not soothing to a shattered ego. Times like these one cannot easily forget. All was not fun and frolic. The seriousness of school, the constant endeavor to keep marks high, the morgue-like stillness of the house at exam time. The frantic cheering, the muffled sobbing, or the muted pleading, when marks were received. This was the graver side. The good times, the bad times, the work times, the sad times; these are memories to be savoured over the years. What about the brothers themselves? We will always remember — Shaky Miz; Demerit Ganz; Bottled in Bond Hoffman; Silas Krouss; Al ' The Snake Cohen, Dinner at the Rekants; ' Rex Silver- man; Smilin Stein; Mr. Rah Rah Horowitz; Ivan the Terrible Frank; J. Joel Berger; The Hawk Leavitt; Legoose on the Loose; Yo Yo Leipzig; The Huxter Platnick; Wool Merchant Eisenberg; Mo- rals Man Ponty; and Wags Wagner. These Pilams will not be forgotten, nor will the work they accomplished as Fraternity Men be lost. Other brothers will take their places, and the cycle will continue. This is not a time for sadness, but a time for looking back with pleasure and looking ahead with eagerness. As long as there is a Lowell Tech, the standards of Pi Lam wil continue to be upheld and a light will burn in the House on the Hill! 103 OMICRON PI OFFICERS Archon Ed Hayes Senior Member Ellie Mann Junior Member Pete Canovai Recorder Roger Bicknell Treasurer Paul Law Assistant Treasurer Harry Tobler Marshall Ray Hardy Omicron Pi Fraternity holds the honor of being the oldest fraternity at LTI, having been founded November 3, 1902. For the past fifty- two years, O Pi has maintained a respected posi- tion in organizations and activities on the cam- pus, and continues to fulfill its purpose of pro- moting brotherhood among its members. O Pi has always been an independent fra- ternity. Backed by a strong alumni, O Pi has continued to remain active and prosperous through wars, depressions and final exams. O Pi has been invited to unite with national fra- ternities on various occasions, but the members feel that such associations are unnecessary for the well being of this independent organization. The social activities of O Pi were high- lighted last May by the fraternity formal dinner dance, held at the Manchester Country Club. The members and their favorite dates arrived at the house early in the evening for a punch bowl, then all journeyed to Manchester to attend the most popular social event of the year. The new members were presented their fraternity pins, and Archon Ed Hayes received the O Pi ring which is awarded each year to the most deserving member. After a very pleasant eve- ning the couples headed back to the house to continue partying until the early hours. The following day got off to a rainy start, so the beach party was held at the Waverly Avenue address. The couples toasted hot dogs and marshmallows in the fireplace, and spent a sunny afternoon on top of Fort Hill. The final social event of the Spring was the annual Senior Stag. All of the underclassmen joined in honoring the seniors, who had so First Row: P. Law, P. Canovai, A. Denio, E. Hayes, Prof. Frederick, R. Bicknell, H. Tobler, R. Hardy. Second Row: N. Hamel, J.

The house rang with laughter and song until early the following morning. It was a weary group of Omicrons who emerged the next day with enlarged heads, and departed for Upstream Day at Canobie Lake. The weather was fine, and the members made the most of the school holiday. After final exams, the boys wasted little in heading home. Many of the seniors succumbed to married life in the month of June, some en- tered industry, and others bowed to the request of their rich Uncle Sam. The house was the scene of a summer stag in honor of Norm Hamel, and brother John Iodine ' Twarog added to the color of the oc- casion. Two weeks following, Norm made Ann his bride, thus adding one more member to the Women ' s Auxiliary. About the same time, Bob Thompson became Jean ' s husband and only after she agreed not to interfere with his duck hunting. September rolled around, and found the O Pi boys working hard to make Orientation Week a success. The house once again became a home for many of the members. The boys proceeded to redecorate, television was added, and Don Doull set up the chow schedule. The fall season found Trappers Vic Kao and Bob Eddy journeying into the nearby swanp of Dra- cut to hunt out brother rats and stray hawks. There is still some doubt concerning the legality of trapping in the trees. The odor of muskrats prevailed throughout Belvidere for many weeks. Pete Canovai got the social program rolling with a series of gay parties. The first date rushing party, the Harvest Hangover, was a real blast. Entrance was gained only by the cellar obstacle course, and dress for the occasion was the oldest and moldiest of clothing. Piet and Jan Bodenhorst came well dressed for the oc- casion, and joined with Johnny Twarog and Norm to start the thirst quenching game of Signals. The house, well decorated for the occasion, and plenty of pumpkins were procur- red for all by the ever-eager house members. The IFC Weekend was a huge success, and O Pi was the first fraternity to sign up half of 106 its membership. Skit night provided many laughs, and Cumnock Hall was the scene of an informal dance on Saturday night. This was preceded by a buffet luncheon at the house, featuring lobster, turkey, ham, and many choice food stuffs. November saw another edition of O Pi Eye through the efforts of Bob Hall and his staff. This served to inform the alumni of recent events, and renewed contact with some of the older members. In the field of sports, the basketball team provided plenty of competition in the Inter- fraternity League. Roger Bicknell, Recorder, tallied many points for O Pi during the season. December 4th saw 31 Waverly Avenue transformed into the Crescent Casino for the 14th annual Monte Carlo Party. The guests were greeted by uniformed doormen, Don Frazee and Nick Dadoly. The house was well decorated with stre amers, a cashier ' s booth, and flashing lights. Sandwiches were served by some of the charming dates in formal gowns. The members ran a series of tables of fortune, including rou- lette wheels, horse races, dice games, and poker tables. The couple having amassed the greatest fortune was awarded prizes, and a combo pro- vided merry music for dancing. The ROTC Military Ball was the final social event prior to the holidays, and the party boys again fetched dates and had another weekend of fun. A crowd dropped into the house follow- ing the formal to help Pete Canovai celebrate his twenty-second birthday. The group was for- tunate to hear the Junior Member in one of his rare presentations of a ballad about a distressed Indian Maid. It was a weary and wobbly Pete, mumbling Skoal and assisted by Charlie Lar- sen, who set out in search for Eames Hall. March is the month of the year when Hell Week prevails at LTI. The members of O Pi did their best to impress the prospects with the seriousness of joining a fraternity, and to make the experience a memorable one. The house was thoroughly cleaned, floors were washed and waxed, and painting was a popular pasttime. Sarge Chapin in full battle gear guarded the sleeping troops, and Senior Member Don Frazee, with only minor interruptions from Cincinnati, provided the pledges with never-ending enter- tainment. The week was brought to a close with a banquet of fried chicken and green peas. Rod Madden, house manager, is still looking for members for his unceasing work parties. It is rumored that he was considering hiring a house maid. This summer will prove the downfall of some of the members of O Pi. Ray Hardy will walk down the aisle prior to a long-awaited vacation in sunny Bermuda. Don Frazee is an- other member of the clan who will cross over the bridge of no return, and Ellie Mann is a third member who will be hearing wedding bells. Although another year has passed and many of its members are leaving, Omicron Pi Frater- nity is looking forward to new and better things in the years to come. 107 OFFICERS Chairman Lew Silverman Vice Chairman Pete Canovai Secretary Phil Swain Treasurer William Strezelewicz L. SILVERMAN President INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL The Interfraternity Council is the governing, coordinating, and regulating body of all fraternities on the Lowell Tech campus. This year, the Inter- fraternity Council has radically changed some of its functions. It has taken a direct part in the establish- ment of student law on the campus; and it has defi- nitely improved the reputation of the school, frater- nity system, and the individuals that make up the student body of the Institute. It has, of course, continued its activities in the field of rushing, pledging, interfraternity competition and the like. But not satisfied with its normal function- ing, the Interfraternity Council has this year been re- sponsible for the direct establishment of school tradi- tion and school regulations. The IFC raised the scholastic requirements needed for entry into a frater- nity. There is no question of the advantages gained from such a move. Men really desirous of entering fraternity life are forced to prove their worth, in part, by their ability to work and to obtain better than borderline grades. This naturally gives fine incentive to study to most men and causes the school in general to benefit. First Row: J. Collins, E. Hayes, G. Landry, P. Canovai, L. Silverman, P. Swain, C. Petkiewicz, H. Ponty. Seccnd Row: A. Denio, C. Stone, C. Chicklis, J. DeProfio, H. Cotton. Also this year, the IFC undertook the job of or- ganizing another social weekend for the Institute. The resulting IFC Weekend proved to all that fraternity participation in school events is a necessity for the success of the event. It also established a tradition on this campus which will certainly be carried out in future years; that of providing a social event compar- able to any other social event on the LTI campus. Thirdly, the IFC adopted a progressive attitude towards the traditional Hell Week that the fraterni- ties formally used to pledge their future initiates. Help Day was inaugurated by the IFC, and a general chan- neling of energy to more useful lines than was the case previously, was inaugurated by the fraternities. The IFC this year left its stagnated position and emerged as a governing force of the school. It has the responsibility of 30% of the students on its shoul- ders and that alone is reason enough for decisive action by the organization. It is the fervent hope of this year ' s IFC that future members of the body will continue to throw off the shackles of tradition, and move ahead as it has this year, to improve the lot of the student body in gen- eral, and the fraternity men in particular. 109 INTERFRATERNITY SOFTBALL Pi Lambda Phi, with an undefeated season in 1954, swept to its second straight softball champion- ship. It also marked the fourth softball title for the Livingston Avenue boys in five years. Due to poor weather and final exams, the league participated in an abbreviated season. Behind the pitching of Larry Horowitz and the hitting of Dan Brier and Hal Cotton, Pilam breezed to an unde- feated season. Omicron Pi, the previous year ' s cellar dwellers, improved their status considerably, and fin- ished in second place. Their only league loss was to the winners. O Pi was led by Bob Hall ' s hurling, and Warren Rushton ' s hitting. In third place, came the Independents, who occupied that position the year before. Delta Kappa Phi finished fourth with a one win, four loss record. Ray Sciacca did most of their pitching, while Jim Lolos furnished some of the bat- ting power. In last place with an 0-4 record was Phi Psi. They were led by the hitting and pitching of Dave Torch ia. A new feature of the league was the faculty team which participated on an unofficial status. The Profs played each of the teams and came out with two vic- tories and three losses. League Standings: Team Wins Losses Pet.

This past season, Phi Psi, last year ' s title holders, was pitted against the In- dependents team. In a well played game, the Inde- pendents won the league championship by a narrow three point margin. Phi Psi, however, will retain the fraternity honors as there is a separate cup for the leading fraternity team. The outstanding player of the league was Gil Palm of the Independents, a former letter man, who main- tained over a twenty point per game average. Other high scorers in the loop were Mayer Smukler of the Independents, Gerry Gallagher of Phi Psi, Dick Ald- rich of () Pi, Jim Lowell of D.K., Dob Wagner of Pi Lam, and Stan Stem of Pi Lam, all of whom averaged in the double figures. Both Phi Psi and the Independents played excel- lent ball, and lost but one game ( to each other ) in the regular season play. Pi Lambda Phi, one of the top- seeded teams at the beginning of the year, was hamp- ered by injuries and the loss of two of its starters. They wound up the season in third place. Delta Kappa Phi played much better ball than their record might indicate. They lost most of their games by narrow margins, and in many cases led until the last minutes of play. This year, to avoid the continual hassle with the inexperienced referees, usually students, the Inter- fraternity Council paid for the use of a professional referee. This assured a clean, well-played season. Of course, in the playoff game, Rusty Yarnall, the direc- tor of the league, added his professional services to those of the other referee to assure a perfectly run game.

True, our number was ever dwindling, but there were, nevertheless, enough of us to still be considered as a class. Our return at this time was met in a way different from previous ones in that the freshman hazing program was again a reality at LTI. Many of us were asked to assist in instilling school spirit into the extremely large fresh- man class. The authority received from our ROTC training came in very handy at this time. During the first week of school, we also participated and helped out in many events which had been planned by TOC and Circle K. With half of our stay at LTI over (???) — we felt very much assured of ourselves, but it did not take very long before we were as completely snowed under with work as in those long-gone-by days when we were sophomores. Organic assignments were replaced with testing reports, and we heard (and smelled) more about the wonder fiber on the first floor of Pasteur Hall. The weather, which held us in suspense on many a drill day, no longer had this importance. Most of us had turned in our uniforms — at least for a little while — and completely ignored the ROTC bulletin board — except for the cartoons. Even though there are only four girls in our class, each one has been very active not only in their soro- rity, but also in the other student organizations. It wasn ' t long after we retuurned in September, when they had their Hell Week and gave us many laughts. That first semester really flew by, with banquets, homework, dances, homework, field days, homework . . . However, all was not fun. Exams, to which we thought we were immune ( but not exempt anymore ) were soon upon us, and although there was much moaning and groaning, weeping and gnashing of teeth, we consoled ourselves with the fact we still had another year to make up excess D ' s. Next year, we ' ll study more during the Christmas vacation! But, in spite of everything, we weren ' t too much different from other classes (or so we tried to tell ourselves). We took our share of flunks, salvaged ourselves by a few passes, and tried desperately to use up all our cuts. We squawked about 8:00 o ' clock classes — we complained about 5:00 o ' clock ones. But, at the close of the semester, we all felt that a very important part of our college career had come to a close. But, this was no time for sentimentality. We had to get dates for our annual dinner-dance. This was to be our second such affair, and if tradition was to be continued, we had to support this class function. On February 12, thirty couples arrived at the Hotel Marlborough and enjoyed an excellent chicken dinner and a night of dancing. Many were reluctant to end the festivities and continued the party at the fra- 116 JUNIOR CLASS (1st Picture) First Row: R. Sciacca, C. Durand, M. Czekanski, E. Koza, F. Obeai, G. Landry, C. Dunn, F.

After all re- turned to normal, not one complaint was received, and everybody is anxiously looking forward to next year ' s affair. This formally started a semester that was packed with many social events. On February 26, together with members of the other three classes, we journeyed to Cumnock Hall for the annual All-Tech Formal. On the night before, we enjoyed the music of a jazz band and a carnival sponsored by the fraternities. On the afternoon of February 26, we witnessed the Tech- Bradford Durfee basketball game. However, the high- light of the weekend came at the formal. We danced to the music of Claude Thornhill, and again visited the fraternity houses for merry-making. What a weekend! By this time, many of us tried to convince our- selves that we had contracted that perennial disease referred to as Spring Fever. True, it came a bit early this year, but if you wait until Spring, you sel- dom have time to enjoy it! Everything seemed to point to this season of the year during which it is extremely difficult to concentrate on studying . . . baseball, Hell Week, and of course, the muddy drill field. But, again, we came through — although not with flying colors, at least most survived. Mid-terms are a nuisance to everybody (especially when they come during Hell Week) — this classic statement was heard throughout the tunnels as in the past. Even in this complaint, we weren ' t original. Those who came before said the same, and those that come after will probably do likewise. This didn ' t seem to matter to many, however; it was not a time for heavy thought. Many slept during the day, and many more stayed up at night to instill the spirit of brotherhood in the pledges. Ah, yes, another Hell Week gone by and already there ' s talk of what ' s going to be done during next year ' s. But then there were other things that happened during the year. We didn ' t get a trip to Atlantic City this year, but we did go back to Canobie Lake. Enough has already been said about the ever-popular Upstream Day, but we better start practicing for our softball game with faculty next year. Some of the profs are still in pretty good shape! There was also the Spring Stag. Many of us looked enviously at this year ' s graduating seniors and pictured ourselves in their places next year. But, let ' s not rush things, even though it is, in some ways, a pleasant thing to look forward to. The month of May, as usual, was again packed with many events. Along with the above-mentioned two, the Senior Stag and Upstream Day, there were also the annual play, and the Fraternity Formals. This year ' s play, Slight Case of Murder, was a tremen- dous success, and was definitely a fitting opening to the Fraternity Weekend. All who attended these two functions enjoyed themselves immensely and un- happily crossed out the dates on the social calendar at the end of the weekend. JUNIOR CLASS (2nd Picture) First Row: D.

Again, we renewed our supply of midnight oil, black coffee, and cigarettes. We managed to struggle through these two weeks, mainly because we saw a brighter future ahead in the summer vacation. Just how many will return as Seniors, we ' ll have to wait until September to find out. The entire year has seen many members of our class taking part in numerous school functions and organizations. On close consideration, it was found that not one student organization existed in which a member of the Class of 1956 had not actively taken part. To those of you who will not return to LTI in September, the rest of the Class of 1956 wish to ex- tend their thanks for making our stay at LTI a little easier and brighter. We hope that someday in the not too distant future, our paths will again meet. To those of us who will return, our work is not yet completed. We have newly elected class officers. We have made five wise choices. Theirs is a task well defined for them. However, nothing can be ac- complished without the full cooperation of everybody. We shouldn ' t let race, religion, or fraternities stand in the way of class spirit. Together, the impossible can be done; alone, we can do nothing. We have spent three of our most important years together. With the fourth, we can achieve even greater ideals. Let ' s not be considered as just another class. When, in June 1956, we formally complete our stay at LTI, let it be said by those that remain, Theirs was truly an outstanding class. 118 SOPHOMORE CLASS President KEN COHEN Vice President FRANK MANN Student Council JOE VANDERLINDEN Secretary FRAN DELANEY Treasurer LEWIS MILLER SOPHOMORE CLASS We are the Class of ' 57, or if you prefer — we ' re the Sophomores. When we entered Lowell Tech in Sep- tember of ' 53, we were the largest class to be enrolled, the school had taken a new name, new courses had been added and others were being formulated. We felt very important and considered ourselves a lens of the rosy glasses of Tech ' s new look. We are very proud of our school — of its merits in the textile field, its renowned research department, its new Cumnock Hall; and we realize the value of the treaching and training we are receiving here. That ' s why we worked so hard in conjunction with the Student Council to again establish an orientation program for the incoming freshmen. It was named the TOC ( Tech Orientation Committee ) . We wanted to pass on our pride to them, to make sure that the spirit that had risen in us would be carried even higher by them. But now our problems began. Would TOC be received in the right spirit? Would it offend anyone? How would upperclassmen react? There were so many doubts. Freshman hazing had been at Tech before, but it failed. We had a second chance, and we could not, we dare not fail. September of ' 54 brought another new look to Tech ' s campus — beanies. Commands of Tip that beanie and What ' s number seven of the rules were heard on the banks of the Merrimack. Finally, after approximately six weeks, the freshmen had their op- portunity to assert themselves. Every upperclassman who was dragged through that mud-hole, and every upperclassman who watched on is able to testify how well the freshmen did assert themselves. Hazing was officially ended with the All-Tech Banquet on that same day, the freshmen were victorious, and were formally accepted as college students. It was a success! We had not failed, but our work was not yet over. TOC had to be firmly established. A new committee had to be oriented to carry on the wark we had started. The officers of the class — Ken 120 First Row: A. Leclair, D. Branchaud, A. Sgourcs, L. Cappeta, H. Nestor, K. Cohen, F. Mann, F. Delaney, T. Polak, E. LeFort, R. Mansur. Second Row: A. Guimell, A.

Teubal, L. Lifland, M. Birnbaum, J. Lowell, J. Litt, P. Yannalfo, D. Banker, R. Larson. Cohen, Frank Mann, Lou Miller, and Fran Delaney, along with the other members of TOC, worked with the freshmen officers who will head the committee in September 1955. We want to wish next year ' s sophomores as much luck as we had and more. The next task set before us was to prepare a freshman bible to be given to each new student en- tering LTI. It is a new campus publication to take its place along side the Text and Pickout. It is ap- propriately named The Key for it opens the door to a bright and happy four years at college. Two of our classmates, Jerry Harlam and Larry Kopelowitz have done marvelous work in compiling the handbook. Many members of the class hold offices in campus organizations and in fraternities. This is one of the ways that we have proved our prodigious capabilities. Still others excell in sports and have been elected to the varsity teams. They are, to mention a few, Carlos Ceppas, Jim Lowell, Marty Birnbaum, Dick Silver, Dave Hannon, and Lou Miller. Not only have we worked hard at these activities, but also many of us have been able to earn and maintain high scholastic averages. Here, let ' s offer congratulations to Bob Schiek who won honors in chemistry. We ' ve all enjoyed our second year at Tech. Our intellectual horizon has expanded; we have grown closer to our college friends, and we have had fun. The hazing period, the big week-ends, and the amus- ing day-to-day incidents around the campus have be- come a part of us and of our memories. We weren ' t anxious to come back after the long summer vacation, we dreaded exams, and most of all — we hated eight o ' clock classes. We moan, groan, and gripe about small things, but we ' re still here. And we shall con- tinue to become more and more firmly rooted to Tech. When in twenty years we shall be asked, ' Where were you educated? , we will answer, Lowell Tech, with a ton of pride in every syllable. First Row: C. Genzabella, R. Swansburg, R. Gamache, R.

These were the LTI freshmen, gathered from all over the world, and none of them knowing quite what to expect. In an attempt to alleviate this problem of where am I, and what am I doing here? , the entire first week was dedicated to orientation. This period included welcoming speeches by President Lydon, Dean Ivers, Dean Edlund, the Librarian, and officers in the ROTC; batteries of tests (which really made some of us wonder what we were really doing here ) ; a picnic at Tyngsboro Country Club; getting our programs for the coming semester; buying books and supplies; and a dance at the end of the week. What a shock was in store for us on Monday morning when we finally went to classes! And then, several days later, our complete awakening came about — hazing began! ! With red beanies and name tags constant companions, we became almost expert at spotting a Red TOC arm band from corridors away. However, on October 26, we made up for all the indignities suffered by tipping beanies and reci ting the ten commandments. On that date, which was Frosh-Soph Field day, the Freshmen not only com- pletely overwhelmed the upperclassmen in basketball games and track events, but had the added extreme pleasure of watching the ten most unpopular TOC men take a mud bath in the grand finale of a tug of war. Nevertheless, the orientation did help to instill a great deal of spirit among the Freshmen. Not only school spirit, but a feeling of belonging, of knowing there were others in the very same predicament, there- by bringing about a great deal of class spirit. The First Row: A. Garrick, A.

Of course, since all this rivalry was, to coin a phrase, all in the family, it had to end on a friendly note, and it did. Everyone had a great time one eve- ning at the first annual TOC sponsored All-Tech Banquet. But by now, five-weekers were upon us, and the freshman ' s fancy turned to thoughts of studying. High school was never like this. Where did the instructors get such devilish ideas for questions? Here and now, many a freshman took the pledge to spend more time with his books. It was at this time that the Student Council set up plans for the nomination and election of class officers. Late in November, elections were held, and after several run-offs, our leaders were chosen. With the short breather for Thanksgiving over, we were back again, this time hitting the books in preparation for the ten-weekers. Funny, but at this point, it seemed as though we were having more exams than we had courses. Then, wonder of wonders, for two whole weeks we could supposedly get away from it all. Christmas was here with all its implications of a vacation. But those two weeks seemed to elapse faster than did many one hour lectures, and we were once more back at the old stamping grounds. With the easy life of vacation only a memory, we started studying for those tests to end all tests — FINALS! Ever since we had arrived here, we had heard upperclassmen speaking of hitting tests. Well, we now wrote our own man bites dog story — those tests hit us and hard. But somehow, most of us man- aged to survive it and the majority were back on First Row: A. Yujuico, Jr., M.

Of course, all this time, even with all the studying, for no freshman was the social life completely non- existent. At almost any school, fraternal life plays an integral part of campus life and so it is at Tech. The fraternities held rushing parties, both dated and stag. It was a rare weekend that passed without a rushing party at one of the four houses. At last, after the first semester, bids were sent out and the final decisions were made. Will we become members of a fraternity, and, if so, which one? But, as always ,the Dean had a few words to say on this subject, and the Probation List was published. To many, it was a matter of disappointment, and a promise to study harder next semester. But now, next semester is this semester. We ' re separated into our courses and re-registered. No longer baffled and bewildered (at least, no more than any one else), we went through the procedure again. And of course, inevitably we began classes again. At just about this time, a Freshman Class dinner- dance was planned. However, conflicting dates on the social calendar seemed to deem this an impossibility, and the affair was postponed indefinitely. This was also the time when we experienced our first all-Tech Weekend, with all its gaiety and the wel- come chance to stray from the books, even if just for a short while. Now pledging has started and Hell Week is right around the corner. Soon many will become fraternity brothers and a permanent part of the campus scenery. However, it is the coming nominations for TOC that really make us feel that we belong. It seems so short a time since we were the green little Freshmen being led around by the upperclassmen. Yet, here we are, now picking our own representatives to orient the freshmen next year. Believe it or not, it seems we actually lived through this, our freshman year at Lowell Tech. 126 J.

Mills at LOWELL, MASS. and SALMON FALLS, N. H. X - ' - -0™ - u9 - 193 Great progress has been made in surface-acting agents during the most recent years. Still, the tre- mendous value of Sulphonated Fatty Oils in the wet processing of textiles has never been questioned. Continued and increasing uses are being found in dyeing and finishing textiles for Monopole Oil (a double sulphonated castor oil), Olive, Teaseed and other fatty oils. This is because of the soft, full hand which sulphonated oils impart, as well as the lubricat- ing qualities which are distinctly theirs. There is a definite return to these products by numberless mills. And Jacques Wolf, with fifty years experience as the leading sulphonator, is offering Sulphonated Fatty Oils with advanced methods of sulphonation . . . oils with increased value for all purposes in textile processing. May we have your inquiries? Samples, of course, on request.
