Although this was the first educational institution of its kind in the country, the beginning appears to have been rather an unpretentious one. The records show that in 1885 there were only 120 pupils entered in the school, nor did the school enrollment exceed 275 pupils until 1902. In 1890 a new building was erected on the lot adjoining the old building and the school life proceeded as before. Then in 1893 the name of the school was changed to The Bal- timore Polytechnic Institute. A new and very helpful era dawned on the school when Lieutenant William R. King, U. S. N., Retired, was called to become its principal. After a year spent in serious study of the situation at the school, Lieutenant King made several good recommendations to the Board of Visitors. These recommendations were carried out and the school became in reality a technical institution. An advanced College Preparatory Course was offered, which in- cluded such subjects as calculus, surveying, analytical chemistry, and the mechanics of ma- terials, subjects heretofore unknown in high school curricula. Graduates from this four-year course were given sophomore standing by engineering colleges. As a result of this change, the enrollment increased to such an extent that in 1908 it was necessary to remove the first year classes to an annex on Division Street. ' The property of the Maryland School for the Blind was next purchased in 1910 and in December of that year the first year classes were transferred to that building. Plans were started for a new structure to be erected on the Blind Asylum lotg but as the city needed a through street, north and south, Calvert Street was cut through, thereby reducing the size of the lot. However, the plans were revised and two wings were added to the Blind Asylum building. The entire school was admitted to its new quarters on September 22, 1913. The growth of the school from that time on has been truly remarkable. The enrollment has reached well over two thousand pupils. In 1921, a sad blow came to the school with aio-.s.fL.....krv...r.s:urs-....e.-A--'--9 -5-M 1-- ...z-.-i'::.-f'j AA.iA-I-AAFL 5 --...-2L..'-J' ' -t.: ...'1J'A.. ..-..-A. 7' ws... ..t.,.-.1 .. .- . . .e-ff!A- - --.Ly.a.l-4-V -H -- ' L-'54-A A' ...QA -' ,isis--.117-2Le:l..L'4..LwL-.I......i1' Q... av. ... . ..--...

' ' ' :..' ......-. . the passing of Lieutenant King, the man who made the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute. He was succeeded by a former graduate and teacher of Polytechnic, Mr. Wilmer A. Dehuff, a serious but kindly guide for the school. Upon assuming his duties as principal, Mr. Dehuif introduced several innovations and revisions. In addition to the Advanced College Preparatory Course, which was retained, a College Preparatory Course without the advanced work was offered. This course gave the school a much wider field of work. Mr. Dehuif also inaugurated a well-organized student government. In 1927 the School Board appropriated 51,000,000 for the rebuilding of the Polytechnic Institute. In 1930, the largest year for the school, many changes were wrought in the buildings. Razing started in February and continued through the summer. The buildings that were torn down included the central building, the old annex and the cottage to the east of the school. In their place rose the new Polytechnic Institute, a happening many boys did not expect to see during their stay at Poly. On the annex lot arose a spacious and beautiful auditorium with a seating capacity of twenty-five hundred and a stage where many future graduations will he held. In 1931 the new school was completed and occupied by many proud students. The new auditorium was christened with the annual presentation of the Poly Follies and later with the graduation exercises of the class of '31, for this class has the distinction of being the first to graduate from this building. There will be far better advantages for the students of future years at Polytechnic than have ever before been known. Although students of coming years will have all these advan- tages of equipment, of facilities for teaching and of places for recreation, it is hard to believe that they will surpass the excellent record that has been made by former graduates. It will be enough for coming students to keep up and cherish the high esteem in which our Alma Mater, Polytechnic, has always been held.

MARYLAND June 15. 1951. Members of the Class of 1951: The Class of 1951 occupies a rather place in the history of the school. You had the experience of living through a building program with all the many problems attending the process of tearing down and building up. I cannot help praising you for your splendid cooperation during these trying months. In such a crisis much depends upon the part of the older students, and it must be said that you responded nobly to the call for cooperation. How appropriate it is that the Class of 1951 should have the opportunity to be the first to graduate in the New Auditorium! that I I have of the is the WAD:EB It is indeed with deep personal regret see you leave,because of the many friendships which enjoyed. I can only say that I wish each member class a life full of hard work because the hard worker happiest person and usually the most successful. Sincerely yours, eighteen nineteen WILMER A.

Chief among our friends of Axl is Bob Bortner, whose personality is seasoned with a franlcness and good humor which is quite pleasant. His fine school spirit led him into numerous school activities, foremost among which is his service as student councilman. Be- sides going in for athletics he is also interested in aeronautics and was a member of the Aero Club in his junior year. But these activities did not seem to interfere with his studies, for he was awarded a membership to the Honor So- ciety for his scholastic standing. We are sure that Bob will be more than successful in any occupation that he may pursue. MELVIN CLAY BRUCKSCI-I College Preparatory Course NBR!-JK!! Band, 3, 43 Interclass Football, 4.

Among the survivors of the good ship Axl of 1931, we have Robert Lee Carl. In spite of hurricanes encountered off little known straits of Calculus and upon the turbulent sea of mechanics, he remains upon the deck. Per- haps it was his interest in music that soothed his badly battered brain, and inspired him to resist the deadly onslaughts that were faced daily. The best wishes of the class are with him in any career he may choose, and we are sure that success will be his.

During the rush, coincident with the emptying of the stadium, Johnny had an argument with one of the United's steel rails. The next time johnny came to school he became Rail-splitter .

CI-IESNO Advanced College Preparatory Course BILL A Radio Club, 1, 2, 33 Interclass Football, 3, 43 Inter- class Basketball, 35 Interclass Indoor, 2, 3, 43 Honor Society. Bill is a fellow of the Big Man from the South type, one of these tall, handsome, and husky birds. Outside of being the loudest member of Axl, Bill is a regular fellow. When asked for an answer to a problem, his reply is usually I don't know nuthin'. But when sounded further, he can even explain the hard- est calculus riddles. We sincerely wish him all possible success in the engineering world. thirty-six :f 1 ,.i..:..,:.,A- :X F ,-. . .l.4f2 , ,ix ,f '1 f- lligi -A i Q e.i.- , 1 we A i Wig .

He is quiet, yet not retiring, and acts generally as if he were a man, rather than a kid . His pet hobby may be photography, but we question the state- ment that his favorite study is calculus.

It seems that he is wonderfully adept at anything he undertakes. Lots of us have gone to him for pointers on everything from Algebra to Mech. Lab. notebooks. It is whispered around that the lad has no mean talent as a musician, his chosen instrument be- ing the piano. We sincerely hope that Art meets with unlimited success in whatever field he may enter.

But know- ing the girls is not the only one of Elliott's achievements. He is a good student who has always tried to live up to the laws of his school and still have his bit of fun. He is one of the fraternity dance bugs and you can find him at most any dance that is worth crashing.

His hobby, it seems, is tennis and he wields the racquet like a champion in the making. We are sure that John Paul will become a great credit to his alma mater and we-unanimously wish him all possible success and happiness in his future life. CLINTON HARTWIG I-IANSON College Preparatory Course USLITU Poly Band, 2, 3, 4. Slit Hanson, a real, honest-to-goodness printer, has regular cards proclaiming his trade. He can claim membership in Poly's noise-making assemblage, for he belongs to the band. He also is a near relative to Beau Brummel and, in this character, never lacks a partner for a dance. In spite of all his perfections, he is a student councilman and a very well liked member of his class, but very bashful! Good luck, Slit. HARRY D.

Among our friends and companions-in-arms fagainst such evils as Calculus, Mechanics, etc.l, we esteem Harry Hartman, whose quiet dignity is enhanced by a disposition quite pleas- ing and amiable. Let there be no misunderstand- ing, for although Harry is quiet by nature, we believe, yes, we afiirm, that he is a member of Mr. Spinning's Aero Club, and has participated in numerous other activities. He has seen serv- ice in the very midst of the aforesaid dire evils and has survived them so splendidly that we feel sure he will be more than successful in any occupation he might pursue. forty-fve 'Q s v f.:g ,wa-.7 'gr-frat' ' 3333 .L fr x ee w 1.. if XXV A V , , I A 013. .

If you ever meet a long, lean drink of water, who manages to scrape under doorways by the skin of his teeth, that's Butch, sometimes known as Pee-Wee. Butch has worked hard while at Poly, and has managed to amass a goodish average for his efforts at school. He also seems to have a goal, in the form of col- lege, ahead of him, for which he is striving hard, long, and earnestly, by getting everything that Poly can give him, and holding on to it. We feel sure that Pee-Wee will keep up the good work at college that he has started at Poly. CLEMENS F. J. I-IEINER College Preparatory Course CLsM Orchestra, 3, 4. Clem is always willing to let his fellow-stu- dents have his homework when he has it. He must spend much of his time and energies in practicing his orchestra music, for he did not have any visible demoralizing effect on the school orchestra, of which he is an ardent member. GEORGE A.

As a chorus girl, he's a wow. He is nonchalant at times, even if he doesn't smoke Murads. His lifelong problem was, is, and always will be, why the higher-ups didn't appreciate his forms of handshaking. The class wishes him plenty of success in his future work. WALTON W.

This moniker is not due to any imperfection in his character, but to the spelling of his last name, which is no fault of his. Walton Wiley, or I-fully, is one of those students who manage to pass all tests and do all their homework, even English fMr. Flagg, take notej. We think that someone should start a collection to erect a monument to his honor, or at least give him a leather medal.

Among the various evils that may be found in the noble class of Axl of 1931, the Calculus fiend occupies a prominent place. Chief among these wayward youths is the ponderous Holz- apfel, who is prone to delving into this most unholy subject. If possible, imagine the sink- ing feeling experienced by a tough calculus problem when this rogue approaches with a gluttonous look in his eye. Often for the sake of diversion, he will plunge into a blood-curd- ling game of chess, with a reckless abandon of life and limb. Look out! Einstein, here comes Holzapfell Good luck to you, Holzie, and may your march to success be unimpeded. P. S. A.

We think that the Poly suckers he buys frequently are not for his sister, as he claims.

As I stand here at this table this evening as toastmaster, I cannot help but wax reminiscent over the old days at the block-square location of the school on what we used to call North Avenue and appreciate the fact that our grand children will be able to attend an appro- priately constructed group of buildings on a 500-acre campus located in the once densely wooded Windsor Hills, where Mr. Hall once lived. Ah, well- But to return to the subject, tonight we are here to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the departure of the Class of ,31 from Poly, to keep alive the spirit of fellowship among us, and to acquaint the group as a whole with the doings of the many individual members of our class. Before we continue with the evening's speeches allow me to give you a resume of the present occupations of some of our fellow classmates, once prominent in school affairs. 'Nl-lechtic' Hecht has long since given up his professorship at Hopkins in 'How to Convince', and is now spending his time teaching Einstein's theory. Stansbury and Sissel- berger are teaching Mech.

He is connected with the Slippery Slide Rule Corpora- tion, together with Nicholson, Arloif, Middleman, and Trompeter, the last named being the head salesman. Grochmal and Shorey are in the wilds of Africa, selling second-hand Corliss Engines and slightly used Rotary Converters to the unsuspecting blacks. 'Pinky' McGarrow has just perfected a new hair solvent for indignant retainers of red hair, which will make the user look somewhat like Mr. Frank.

With a new building as an incentive, every boy made up his mind that this year would be a banner one. It is worthwhile to inspect our year's program and see how it fitted every individual's needs. VARSITY TEAMS Football: The senior class of 1931 had the honor of being the only class to graduate from Poly with the knowledge that the, Evening Sun Trophy was in our permanent possession. For five straight years City has bowed on the gridiron and this year Captain Boots Ives won a sterling 18-0 victory. Night football was inaugurated and was a huge success. The football team under the skilful guidance of George I-Ioban, won eight out of nine games and the twenty-to-twelve Severn game was a heartbreaker. The 1931 team was the most colorful team George has ever held at Poly. Outstanding seniors were Billy McClean, Merson, Joe Grochmal, Billy Van Orman, Vaughan, and Kubski. Polytechnic this year defeated the champions of Washington, all the Catholic High Schools in Baltimore and all the Public Schools. Soccer: Again Soccer won the Maryland Scholastic Championship and Almond Bosley and his soccerites had an undefeated season. Captain joe Grochmal, I-Ieindel, Winterling and Neimzic were the stars. Basketball: Finishing second in the Maryland Scholastic League, Poly's team made a good showing. Up to the midyear examinations they were undefeated but the departure of McClean, Ferrarani, Carney, and Rohde was too great a handicap to overcome. Seniors Zin- gor, Van Orman, and Ferrarini played well. The 1931 basketball team was the first to play in the new gymnasium. Wrestling: A fair season but interest will be high when the new wrestling room is opened. Fencing: The 1931 Fencing Team also had an inauguration in that it was the Hrst team ever to hold a fencing match at Poly. Coach Biggs and Captain DeRocquelaine did a fine piece of work. Swimming: A fair season. Every year we will feel more the lack of a swimming pool. However, Coach Parrin has imbedded a Hne spirit of competition in the boys and as long as the student-body manifests an interest in swimming it will be continued. Wilson Funk was the outstanding star. Track: Captain Merson led his cinderpath stars to the Indoor Championship and again won the Evening Sun Trophy. The prospects for outdoor season were good. Rifle: Jim Pyle and Mr. Onderdonk again handled the Rifie Team and the interest ran high all year. Next year we are going to try to land a rifle range for the school. Golf: Coach Jim O'Neil has developed Golf into a fine sport at Poly and the turnouts for practice has been well attended. one hundred thirty-nine lil 1 ' iclfbl irfifl fill 1 I -.1 it 1 gl 1 ' 3' bl Qi' l, Tennis: Under the coaching of Jim Proctor the Tennis Team is ready for another season but it will always be handicapped until we get better facilities. Baseball: Coach O'Keefe had the diamond aspirants out early in the baseball season and without any bragging we can say that the team will be up to standard. Lacrosse: The 1931 team had the distinction of being the first Poly Lacrosse team to make the trip to West Point and everyone feels that they will come home with another Mary- land Championship. Avery Blake accepted the coaching position at Swarthmore College and George Darley, an old Poly boy, succeeded him. JUNIOR VARSITY Lacrosse: High hopes for another state championship. Shorty Long is coaching, as- sisted by Hunky LaMotte. Soccer: Sherman Ayres and another state championship. This is the third straight year that Poly has won the Junior Varsity Championship. Basketball: Still another Poly graduate coaching. Oscar Cully and Melvin I-Ierberts did fine work with the Junior Varsity Basketball Team. Football: The junior squad with Oscar Cully as coach did a fine job and developed a lot of fine material for next year's team. FRESHMAN TEAMS Basketball: A good start in the new gym and lots of experience for next year. Playground Ball: just a method of getting the freshmen started in the right way and also in developing a spirit of competition. INTRAMURAL SPORTS Basketball: 81 teams and the largest intramural tournament in the Senor High Schools. Real fun and exeperience every day in the gym. Still going on when the CRACKER went to press. Playground Ball: Inaugurated at the suggestion of Mr. Dehuff, this Indoor League dur- ing lunch periods was its usual success. PHYSICAL EDUCATION Opening of the new gymnasium, the new special exercise room, and the showers. 1170 taking special required physical education. The Class of 1931 was the first to see the New Polytechnic. Our athletic year was a big success made possible only by the loyalty and will- ingness of every Poly boy. Now that we have the new gym and physical education there is one more project. Will the Class of 1931 rake up the cry: A Real Athletic Field by 1941. The Department of Health and Physical Education belongs to the boys of Poly for their development and enjoyment. Come around often and don't hesitate to offer suggestions and by all means don't forget to be on hand at the 42nd Annual Poly-City Football Game at the Stadium, November 21, 1931. BEAT CITY! In closing, I wish each graduate the best of health and success and hope that he has at least one time taken part n some of the above activities. BILL LILLY. one hundred forty CDOTBAL f .fL iff 3, .

The game inaugurated night football in Baltimore and proved to be a big drawing card. The result was a 7-0 victory for Poly, but only after a bitter struggle. Dunham's, the second opponent on the schedule, fell easy prey to a fast-stepping Orange and Blue team and went down to a 43-0 defeat at the Baltimore Stadium. The combination of Grochmal and McLean with Boots Ives captain and end pulling in passes, proved to be too much for the lighter team from Mt. Washngton. To add to their already envious record, our boys defeated Loyola High School, 20-6, in another night contest. The team, finding Loyola rather off balance in the first half, gained a fourteen-point advantage and succeeded in holding the opponents scoreless in the final periods. Our team was clearly outweighed but their fight made up for this disad- vantage. On the Friday following the game with Loyola, the eleven journeyed out to Irvington and met Mt. St. Joe. We outplayed St. Joe in every department and earned an 18-0 victory. However, this victory cost us the services of Ives and Vaughan, both receiving injuries which kept them on the sidelines for several games. Entering the Gilman fracas in a weakened state from the loss of two regulars, our grid- ders put up a great fight and held the Roland Parkers to a 0-0 tie. jack Leisch, our speed artist, gave a good exhibition of end running while he was in the line-up. A strong and hefty Severn team was met the following week-end and proved to be too much for our eleven. While the number of touchdowns were even, they gained the advan- tage by kicking both points while we missed both. So, much to our dismay, the Maroon warriors returned to Severn with a 14-12 victory. Captain Ives returned to the line-up in this game and bolstered Poly's spirit considerably. After two hard games, Poly entered the Calvert Hall tussle expecting little opposition and for the first two periods things came up to expectations and Poly left the field leading, 13-0. Then came the fire works. Calvert Hall opened the second half with an assault that swept the unwary Poly eleven off its feet and when the whistle blew, we were leading by a single point, 13-12. The final game before the annual fracas with City College was played with Forest Park. The Foresters were very light and as the score shows, offered little opposition. Poly used its entire A squad and in the last five minutes of the game the B squad was sent in, much one hundred forty-two ' ' lm . l AA 4. . , H,--.AIU ' . . to the amusement of the Poly roorers. The final score of the track meet was 45-0 in favor of our pigslcin toters. At last, after a long and hard schedule, came the game of games, the old grapple with City-and what a grapple it was. The teams played on even terms throughout the first half despite the fact that we were 3-1 favorites. However the second half was a different story, for while City's score remained zero we rang up eighteen points to cop the Evening Sun Trophy permanently. The team covered itself with glory in this season of football and three of its members- lVlcLean, Ives and Pasarew-received berths on the All-Maryland eleven. May the Polv football teams of years to come carry on with the same spirit that was exhibited in this season of 1930.

Poly-City Game SATURDAY, November 22, 1930, dawned cold, dismal and rainyg the skies cleared up and old man sun smiled down on the battlefield at the Baltimore Stadium. , Hours before the First whistle a lively and colorful crowd began streaming through the gates seeking seats. Ar exactly 2:30 the two elevens lined up and McClean of Poly kicked off to Keyser of City. Keyser took the ball on his own 25-yard line and was nailed. On the play, Van Orman broke through the Collegian interference and threw Foos for a five-yard loss. McClean broke loose and carried the ball to City's 20-yard strip. Here a fumble gave City the ball. Poly's line held and exchange of kicks followed, City receiving the ball on its 20-yard line when McLean punted over the goal. City ran off a first down and then kicked to Shorey who was downed on his own 20-yard mark after fumbling the ball. McClean got off a quick kick to Foos of City, who returned the ball to City's 40-yard mark and fumbled, Poly recovering. An exchange of kicks followed and Poly received the ball on City's 40-yard line. The quarter ended with Poly in possession of the ball on its own 30-yard line. Poly again obtained the ball 30 yards from their l own goal line when City was penalized 15 yards. McClean kicked to City's 20-yard line. City then NBOOTS1, IVES moved the ball to Poly's 40-yard strip by a beautiful one hundred forty-four 'QW U, UAA, Q - i I V I l end run and a 15-yard penalty against Poly. Here Foos tried a quick kick but it was blocked, Poly recovering on their own 40-yard line. Following an exchange of punts, MC- Clean carried the ball for a Hrst down to City's 35-yard marker. McClean put the ball on City's 51:6-yard line. Van Orman received a pass and was downed on the one-yard line, ending the ha . The second half began with Poly kicking to City, the receiver being downed on his own 25-yard line. A pass from Grochmal to McClean placed the ball on City's 25-yard mark, where City gained the ball by virtue of a fumble. Poly tried to kick out of danger but City returned the ball to the 18-yard strip. Foos left City's line-up and Alberts, a substitute, made an unsuccessful attempt to score on a field goal. Poly received the ball on its 20-yard line, where a drive was unleashed which netted the first score of the game. In two beautiful runs McClean carried the ball to City's 47-yard line. Grochmal carried to che 25-yard mark. A pass from Grochmal to McClean placed the oval on the five- yard strip, where Ives carried it over for the first score. City kicked and recovered a Poly fumble on our 45-yard mark. Becoming desperate, an open formation was used and McClean intercepted a pass on his own 20-yard line and raced through a broken Held for 80 yards for a touchdown. City again elected to kick. McClean returned the ball to Poly's 35-yard line, where he kicked to City and the quarter ended with the Collegians in possesion of the ball. City failed to gain on a trick spread formation and was forced to kick to McClean, who lost the ball on a fumble on Poly's 40-yard line. After Poly took the ball on downs, McClean, Ives and Grochmal un- leashed another drive which resulted in another score. AL S-I-ALFORT one hundred forty-fve Basketball NOT many basketball candidates turned out at the call of Mr. Lilly. A team was built around the regulars, Van Orman and Carney, the only two members of the previous season's combination to return. With McLean and Carney paired at guard positions and Zingor and Farrarini as forwards, a fairly good team was placed on the courts. Carney proved to be a scoring genius and for the first half of the season the team led the division. Then came exams. McLean, Carney and Ferarini became ineligible and Bob Ricketts' an experienced guard of last season returned to the squad. He took Car- ney's place as high-point scorer and was a ray of hope for the team. Poly's games in the last half of the season were bad, our being nosed out by a few points in each. Taking the entire season as a whole, it becomes a real tribute to Poly spirit for the boys to have done so well under such strain. The classes were cut short and work for exams became harder. To be nosed out in each game by a few ponts and keep on in the face of it showed that those boys had courage. Games were played with McDonogh School, An- 1 napolis High School, Calvert Hall, Friends' School, Park School, Forest Park High School, Mt. St. Joe, City College, and with St. John's Freshman team. The completion of the new gym at Poly undoubtedly affords a better pursuit of this sport in the future. BILL VAN ORMAN one hundred forty-six Soccer THIS season Coach Bosley turned out his ninth Poly Soccer Team and the boys turned in their ninth consecutive State Championship. Although nine of the previous season,s squad had graduated, the team this year, from start to finish, was a well-rounded organization. Under the able leadership of Captain Joe Grochmal, the entire season was traversed in perfect style. Two outstanding players, Nemzelc on the attack and Heindle on the defense, were largelv responsible for Tech's fine showing. The former is captain-elect of next year's varsity and an All-Maryland Team selection for three years' standing. Heindle has played in every soccer game at Poly for the past three years up until his injury in the last game of the season with Tome. Hoffman and Schoor, two stellar defensive players, along with Grochmal, Nemzelc and Heindle, com- plete the quintet of Poly men chosen for the All- Maryland State Eleven. The games with Calvert Hall and City College were the hardest of the season. Two extra periods were required for the City game when Pattschlce scored on a rebound to tic the game. In the Calvert Hall game, Pattschlce also kicked the winning goal. Games were played with City College, Calvert Hall, Gilman Country School, Severn School, Mt. St. Joe, and Tome. In a practice tilt with the Hopkins Independents, Poly defeated the opponents by a three- to-nothing score. The team was coached this sea- son by Mr. Bosley, of the faculty. Jos GROCHMAL one hundred forty-seven Swimming THE human fish met with a deal of misfortune during the season. Captain Lou Funk, star speed swimmer of the team, was kept from the Friends' meet by illness, and it was not until several meets had passed that he returned to his old form. Coach Parran was taken ill just before the first City meet and this, too, helped to pull the team down. Shorey suffered a shoulder injury in football and was unable to give his best till after the holidays at Christmas. It seemed that if the mee: started well, with Poly taking the relay, things ran smoothly throughout. The only two meets won by Tech were taken from Loyola, which group was defeated hand- ily. In the Interscholastic Meet, won by City, Tech placed third, with Tome, erstwhile champions in sec- ond place, Poly won the 160-yard relay in the finals with a team composed of Passapae, Cook, I-Iarkins, and Funk. Morrow proved rather consistent with wins in the 220-yard free style. Diving this year was not up to the standard set by Billy Reid last season. Under the conditions the team did as well as could be expected. Our need for a convenient swimming pool in which to hold practice has been greatly felt but until we have such a pool to help the team, we trust that the team's spirit will be as fine as it was this season. Funk deserves honorable mention for his work on LOU FUNK the team, as does also Coach Parran. one hundred forty-eight Y V' ' , T' 1 .T 52Lk5? li. ,ly .. .- ..-Ls 1, and Wrestling A FINE group of grapplers turned out at the call of Mr. Merlcle and for the first time in many years it looked as though Gilman might lose the championship. After the first meet or so things did not look so bright. Jud Thomas, captain of the team, was declared ineligible following the February exams. It is best not to discuss the meets, all of which Tech lost. The little fellows -Sibley, Thomas, and Galicki-wrestling in the 105, 115, and 125-pound classes, respectively, showed up much better than the big fellows. Kubslci, in the 145-pound class, improved steadily until the end of the season, when he became Poly's only representative at the Interscholastic Meet. I-Ie lost in the semi-finals after having wrestled three times in the course of the afternoon. Appel put up the best match of the season against MacArthur of Severn, who outweighed him by twenty-five pounds. MacArthur won with but a half-minute to spare. The only excuse for the poor showing of the grap- plers is the lack of support given by the student- body. It is believed, however, that interest in this sport will increase when the new wrestling room is opened. Wrestling matches were held with Calvert Hall, McDonogh School, Gilman Country School, Severn, City College, and the Interscholastic competitors. Coach Peters predicts a more successful season during the coming year. jun THOMAS one hundred forty-nine i . V' . Ax fill: 5-an YJ if fswf 'l.'f'.f ,lf Lacrosse AT this early date only an estimate of the team's strength can be given. A rather shoddy game has been taken from .McDonogh. The material is about average. Miles Shorey is outstanding on the attack and Van Orman plays well at first defense. Grochmal plays very hard at center and the youngest of the Ives brothers, Walter, is playing at out-home. An excellent schedule has been arranged for the team, including a trip to West Point by special permission of the School Board. This is the first time a Poly Lacrosse Team has played away from home to the extent of an overnight trip. The team is improving steadily in the practice sessions at Homewood and we might as well predict another State Championship. Both the attack and the defense combine power, and speed and after Mr. Darley has ironed out the rough places the team will look good. Seventy-Hve fellows originally reported for the try-outsg thus it can be seen that there was no lack of material for picking a team. The most exciting game was with City College, in which Poly won, by a score of 3 to 2. Shorey scored the winning point, and was well supported by his team-mates. Caron, Pasarew, Millman, Van Orman, Gregg, Carlton, Grochmal, Vaughan, Shorey, Dornin, Ives, and El- lender. Other games were held with McDonogh, Park School, St. john's V.'s, Maryland Freshmen, Friends,land the unplayed Severn game. MILES SHOREY one hundred fifty F -1 ,, UAA, 1 , Baseball ' WHEN Mr. O'Keefe, head coach of the national sport at Poly, met a turnout of 225 candidates for the team he was, to say the least, a little surprised. The greater part, however, were diminutive freshmen, and the coach right now is looking around for somebody who can pitch. McClean, the captain, and star of last year's team, may be ineligible for the season. Murry Deming looks very good at shortstop, and if the bunch out at Roosevelt keeps on improving, no doubt Poly will add another State Championship cup to its collecton. Ir seems that each baseball team is composed, year after year, entirely of seniors, with the result that Willie O'Keefe has a brand-new bunch each year with no regulars returned from the previous season. With a full schedule ahead and such a crowd out at Roosevelt, and Willie O,Keefe show- ing them howv for his umpteenth year as coach, that bunch can't lose for dear old Tech. Play Ball! On April 30, Mt. St. Joe nosed Poly out of the first game of the season by a score of 7 to 5, nabbed by St. Joe in the last inning, when three runs were brought in by them. The U. of M. Freshmen de- feated us 2 to 0, on May 6. On May 16, City won a 22 to 6 victory and on May 19 Gilman smeared us for a 7 to 3 score. The sportsmanlilce perseverance of the members of the team, during the dishearten- ing season, does them credit. The support of the school seems regrettably waning after football is over.

They are already the possessors of the Evening Sun Trophy, having won the Championship in Indoor Track at the Fifth Regiment Armory by overwhelming City, Forest Park, Vocational, and Southern. Merson is defending his schol- astic championship 220-yard high hurdles record, with Ricketts and Scheckells as close seconds. Furst still vaunts his mile-run championship, and Jack Leish is expected to come out even better than usual in the dashes. The following ' meets have been held: the Penn Relays, University of Delaware, Public High School Championship, Prince- ton, Tome, Mt. St. Joseph, McDonogh, Interschol- astic, and City College contests. The biggest swamping of the season was when Polyis track team ate up McDonogh with a 92 to 16 tally The stars in this meet were Leisch in the jave- lin throw, Sheckells in the low hurdles, Furst in the mile run, Yurgelionis in the high jump, Leisch in the 100-yard dash, McCalley in the 440-yard run, Peach in the 220-yard run, Beck in the 880-yard run, ' Kubski in the discus throw, Carney and Brian in the N pole vault, Peach in the broad jump, and Yurgelonis in the shotput. In the Four State Meet Furst, in the mile and RUE MERsoN quarter-mile runs, took second place. - one hundred fifty-four ,zfzrraii ,':':t:.1z,1': :z:':.'fZ .. .rrlza :ilu -1 i':'fvf ':1F-f ' , i.j0'i!Q ' K .,f V with I :V L, , . 41 - ff: Q .

The boys are fighting for Posi- tions. So far, Captain Seth and Broclcman appear to be the stars of the squad and should be a big asset throughout the season. No less than eleven matches have already been scheduled and it seems as though the boys will have a very, very busy time of it from now till June. At the time the POLY CRACKER goes to press, two noteworthy victories had been won. On April 29, Poly's team defeated Franklin Day School's team 5 to 2. Later on, Poly downed Loyola, by a score of 7 to 0. The outstanding players thus far were: Brock- man, Brizendean, Meyer, Seth, and Ottenheimer. A stiff fight was waged against Mt. St. joe's net team on May 20 by a 6 to 0 score. St. joe had not yet been beaten and Poly had hoped to talce some wind out of their sails by administering a defeat. It is hoped by the numerous Poly supporters that this tough break will be offset by an abundance of vic- tories during the remainder of the season. The prospects certainly look rosy for these Poly rac- queteers, whom we earnestly believe to be better than the ones from Chicago. Go get Western High fwashingtonj, Tome, Loyola, City, and the rest! jimmy Proctor is the faculty manager of the team, and Milbourne Christopher is the student manager. Well, here's hoping for their success! HOWARD SETH one hundred fifty-five . ,1 r1:'Ji'l,:'i-i.'.' Fr: . H My . , ...-. ..... ...-..,....- a. gg-'e'f'.,.3 --1. . . gf . .f.

Under the direction of Captain Maynard, the club practiced weekly at the Hopkins range. Since rifle was made a major sport, the Rifle Team has taken a large place in the extra- curricular activities. The chief obstacle of the club is the obtaining of a range each year. But this, we hope, will be remedied in the future by the building of a home range. The club has just ended a successful season. The team had matches with Gilman, U. of M. Girls, McDonogh, Brooklyn Poly Prep., U. ' of M. Freshmen, Ridgewood High, Hopkins Fresh- men and DeWitt Clinton High. Maynard was this year's craclc shot. Mr. Pyle and Mr. Onderdonlc supervised the efforts of the team members this season in be- coming craclc shots. These big shots terrorized this half of the continent with their onslaught. The officers for this year were: john Maynard, captain, Samuel Trompeter, Manager, John Arloff, Secretary and Treasurer, and Philip Onderdonlc, Fac- ulty Advisor. The student-body should render their whole- hearted support to this most worthy endeavor. .IOHNNY ARLOFF one hundred fifty-:ix , ,,: ,.:.J,::l: .::.:1.l...V 1,5 . 5 Q ll . 4 ,, ,.

' 2 The Evening Sun Football Trophy N 1925 the Evening Sunpapers put up for competition a trophy designed by Jack Lambert, noted sports sculptor, after a photograph taken at a Poly-City game. It was to be awarded to the school whose team first won three consecutive games. City won the Hrst game, and Poly the next two. It looked as though Tech would win the following season, so the limit was stretched to Eve years, in order to take permanent possession of the trophy. This season's team won the fifth consecutive game, and now the trophy reposes in our trophy show case, to be an inspiration to future teams at Poly. The trophy itself was presented to the school at the Christmas Assembly last winter, and as can be seen from the above photograph, is indicative of the grit and stamina necessary in gaining it for our alma mater. , , , .- ,,..-,.,.-1 .H va - .-. - 5-gr f- ', 'r1'- wi: 11, aavm1'ms2s25enfQ:af.esrn.fwrmPnrsP,5f51wa.effAwe,-S9Han-1femsaseanf.a.-nwe,1s2sQ5a.,es.1.w,aa.'s2s2f,esw H sffff,..w,ef.,f wsgu-M I T21 L , 1 n .1 w f,f,, A 1 .cf-..

Its membership comprises four members from the senior class, three from the junior class and the presidents of the two fourth year classes. Meetings of the Board are held every Tuesday at 2:30 in a special room allotted for this purpose. The Student Advisory Board settles many important school problems and has proved itself a necessary part of the government at Poly. The members during the first half year were Miles Shorey, Presidentg James Ives, Vice- Presidentg Stuart Brenaman, Secretaryg H. LalVlotte, G. Schreitz, R. Mullilcin, W. McClean, C. Fletcher and W. King. one hundred sixty-one Student Council THE Student Council is a direct means by which the Principal may come in contact with the representatives of all the classes. The Council membership comprises two students from the first, second and third year classes and three from the fourth year, representing their classes by an election held the beginning of every term. At the Student Council meetings. all notices of school activities along with messages from the Principal are given for distribution to the student body. The Student Council is a big factor in helping the Principal solve many problems con- cerning the welfare of Poly and is largely instrumental in maintaining standards of good citizenship. The officers of the Council were Miles Shorey, Presidentg James Ives, Vice-President, and Stuart Brenaman, Secretary. one hundred sixty-two Honor Society POLYTECI-INIC'S branch of the National Honor Society was named after the former principal of the school, the late Lt. Wm. R. King. At the start, membership in the organization meant only honor. However, it was not long before this group of scholastically excellent boys devised a way to malce themselves a great asset to the school. Four years ago, in 1927, our Honor Society inaugurated the system of coaching their less fortunate fellow-students who were not so successful in their studies. The plan was to organ- ize coachng classes in February after the mid-year exams and to continue them until April when the re-exams are held. Thus, any boy who was willing to co-operate with the tutoring would be enabled to pass the make-up exams with comparative ease. This system was so success that the society decided to continue its use in 1928 and 1929. In 1930, however, the society was forced to remain inactive throughout the year because of the drastic changes in the curriculum caused by the building operations. The 1931 membership, under the direction of Henry B. McCauley voted to continue the coaching system. Their efforts were rewarded by great success in the undertaking. The classes were supervised by Mr. Harry F. Frank, Vice-Principal and Honorary President of the Organization. Altogether the society has done a very creditable piece of work this year. This con- clusion is amply proved by the encouraging results of this spring's re-exams. one hundred sixty-three V s J 'lfvf L, -.1. gl H H -Y I A . I-Ii-Y Club AS one looks over the record of the Poly Hi-Y Club for the past year, he must be proud that his school can boast such a group of estimable young men who have made such great strides of advancement toward the higher things in life. By far the outstanding event of the school year was the Club's visit to the Cheltenham Reform School for colored boys at Christmas. Three hundred boxes of candy and various stage talent gathered from among Poly's students were transported to the school grounds near Upper Marlboro, Maryland, to entertain these unfortunate boys. Practically every one in the school knows that one of the club's main objects is the main- tenance of good feeling between Poly and City College. One of the fruits of their labors is the annual pledge drawn up between the two schools. In the promotion of this task, they feel at last that they have reached their goal and so t is with no compnction or feeling of regret that they close the book for the year. In all their activities, the club stands for clean living, clean speech, and clean sports. one hundred sixty-four ,,,,....-.s...v ,,,.

This year, as never before, the club has emphasized the purposes of Philately other than investing in stamps. We have attempted to give a new interpretation to Philately: namely, individual progress. First of all, Philately teaches neatness. This aim may best be explained by an example. A beginner's album was examined and found to contain stamps of practically no educational or monetary value. These stamps were posted in the album in a haphazard and untidy man- ner. The stamps were torn and crookedg the pages were smudged. Four years later, the same boys' album was examned. The stamps were neatly arranged and represented the expenditure of considerable time and care. Each stamp was accompanied by its history. These historical annotations showed that the boy had spent much time and research, and as a result had learned much more than the average student. In the exhbits of the Stamp Club this year, originality was predominant. Many novel and educational exhibits were advantageously displayed. The library of the Stamp Club has been extended to include books which give the history of the issue of a Postage Stamp. In the future, the Stamp Club will continue to emphasize the educational value of The king of hobbies and the hobby of kings , and it will endeavor to increase its library as it has done in the past. one hundred sixty-five V , h .

At the meetings prominent men in the photographic line give interesting lectures on the art. The members of the club, on their own initiative, built a dark room wherein they are able to develop their own snapshots. one hundred sixty-six ' .im . , V,A,,L. If . -V Y 5 g -I ,A Band THE BAND is one of the most active organizations at Poly. All through the football season it materially boosted the winning spirit of the team and the rooters. The mem- bers of the Band made a fine showing at the Poly-City game in particular, by wearing their new uniforms and by their playing when marching in the P formation, which made a most colorful spectacle. At the last Christmas Assembly we had to hold at the Lyric, the Band was an outstanding feature. During the spring athletic season the band has given many good per- formances, showing the ability of its members, helping the rooters at the lacrosse and baseball games. Since 1925 the Band has been coached and directed by Adu Lieder, of the Class of '21, assisted by W. Harig, the Student Manager. one hundred sixty-seven K i 1 ,iyflv . ,. rf: 3, 2 I' r' ' nh - If YI, I ., Orchestra I-IIS year's orchestra, directed by Mr. Jaclcowick, has been unusually active. on several occasions, the Orchestra has rendered a short musical program at meerngs of the Parent- Teachers' Association. It played for an accoustical test of the newly-completed Auditorium, and later at the First two assemblies to be held by the student body in that building. In re- viewing the Orchestra,s activities, one outstanding event should not be omited here. The great success of the Poly Follies was largely due to the support given by the Orchestra in playing during the show. These two groups, the Poly Follies and the Orchestra, are associ- ated with one another to an extent that the editor of this book has placed them on pages facing each other. Contrary to current opinion, the Orchestra does not play classical selec- tions only, but includes in its repetoire musical comedy numbers, sketches, characteristic music, and, occasionally, light jazz. Later on in the school year the Orchestra played at a meeting of all of the junior Safety Councils, held in our Auditorium. The last appearance of the Orchestra was for the commencement exercises of the Class of '31, the first graduation to be held n the new Auditorium. This opportunity is taken to congratulate the Orchestra on its success this year, and to wish next season's group an equal degree of prosperity. one hundred sixty-eight . ,:.,:' 1 Vx, .7:,, M771 , e fr Aff' i Nt FM fi- A K A A 6 ll will ' A N fl Full x.f1u,--,a4Q.f, ig, X r 1 The Poly Follies of 1931 THIS year's presentation by the Sir Henry Irving Dramatic Club was a most successful christening of the new auditorium. Mr. Maccubbin's musical comedy, containing a snappy revue with the comely chorines flots of s. aj and handsome fellows under the super- vision of Mr. Collett, aided by Mr. Jaclcowick's orchestra, furnished the large cast and pro- duction staff wtth a memorable experience, while the gate receipts supplied the Board of Student Activities with an ample bank-roll with which the work of many of the student organ- izations can be carried on next year. The show was held on the nights of April the seventeenth and eighteenth, before capacity audiences. During the performances, Onderdonlc as, the snippy Mrs. Wattaman, Christopher as the crooked Count de Silver, Carney as Jim, and Getterman as Mary Louise, together with the peppy chorus and frequent specialties brought down the house. The baby Austin stunt proved to be a good gag. The three tons of scenery was built by a staff of ten fellows under the direction of C. E. Torsch, Al. Some of the specialties were given again at a recent meeting of the Parent-Teachers, Association. On May 8, a banquet was held in a downtown hotel, at which the cast, staff, and orchestra were the guests of the Activities Board to duly celebrate the success of one of the most enjoyable shows the club has ever presented. one hundred sixty-nine ' ifffv95'EIiL?fHf'i?ZP'?S?f.r'::'QE1B1?- frizfniffzflvfiii.:'refill'zf'U?5P5il'ii ':':.' lIv:3':iffii i'iH:il:-ii CD l..

Poly Cracker THE POLY CRACKER is the official Year Book published by each successive graduating class of the Polytechnic Institute. At the beginning of the 1930-1931 school year, Richard H. Mullikin was appointed Editor-in-Chief, and Gordon Schreitz the Business Manager of this year's publication. These two mid-year students devoted much time, after their school year was actually over, to make the book a success. Later they obtained jobs in Virginia with the Government Bureau of Public Roads, and turned over the remainder of their work to Charles E. Torsch, the Supervising Editor, and to Lee Jones, the Associate Business Manager. The Associate Editors were Onnen, in charge of the mid-year class, and R. D. Story, in charge of the June class. Herbert Moore was Photographic Manager, and Vernon Hoover was the Advertisng Manager. Much of the art work was contributed by W. King and Paul Kesmodel. W. Powell was in charge of the fall sports Writeups, while H. Stansbury took care of the spring sports. In addition to these, R. Schlatzer, Fred Cook, W. Schmidt, Morton Hecht, Sam Rea, and Schultheis did much to aid the progress of the compiling of the extensive copy. In the opinion of the writer, the staff has succeeded in turning out a book far superior to any one previously published at this school. The entire staff deserve your consideration, and so the least that all of us can do is to offer them-Congratulations! one hundred seventy-two 1--emrsff.1faQiJ ':f:'7d52if:ZS7'E Eiiff 12f..'i'ff.f,PS21Lg,,.' - -., .,.., , , ....x .... ....,. f-fa, -,, :WP 37' X' ., uf I 3 , ,V - ., If , I .X 4' ,, 1 .

Until this year the Press had been published at two-week intervals. At the beginning of the 1930-1931 school year, this publication was made a weelcly one. The change has proved to be a success, and the staff, under the leadership of Fred Cook, the Editor-in-Chief, is to be congratulated. He was greatly assisted by the Editorial Board, in the persons of Dick Mullikin, and Mil- oourne Christopher, Associate Editors, and a capable staff, with Mr. Royer as the Advisor of the Board. The business affairs of the Press were handled by Gordon Schreitz and H. P. Maccubbin. The business staff was advised by Mr. W. A. Maccubbin. This year's Poly Press has achieved a great measure of success, in that it has accom- plished its aim, to promote a closer co-ordination between the student body, the alumni, and the parents. one hundred seventy-four 1 lli, .X ' .wif 1 .pray I , J ' w V, wi , f H 1 1 ll II 7 2 4 V X l I ' AY .1 t :rn In K , ljillf .1-3i,: zl5,5 l . , .U il J .V ll ,, 5 l, yy I A. jf if 'f I -Lf? , ,gf-ff .
