Walker, who teaches algebra, geometry, trigonometry, ana- lytics, and calculus, has been an instructor at Poly for twenty-five years. Pre- viously, he taught for sixteen years in Virginia, being the principal of two high schools there. Mr. Walker received his B.S. degree at William and Mary College, in l9l9, and his MA. degree at Columbia, in 1928. We realize that this dedication is only a small reward for the many years of service that Mr. Wvalker has given to our school. 4 f-vw'-T' H. DQNALD JOHN Mr. H. Donald john has been teaching at Poly for twenty-five years, having come here after teaching for several years in the county schools of Maryland. He received his A.B. degree from Blue Ridge College in 19205 in addition, he took several courses in education at The johns Hopkins University and the University of Chicago. Mr. john, who teaches algebra, geometry, and trig- onometry, has done much to guide students through their first years at Poly. We only hope that through this recognition we may in some way repay Mr. John for his untiring efforts in the interest of the students and the school. 5 if I F M! , , v .,,, ,,., ,,M777,A,,0M,,,y,,,yw z H 154475, THQ 1 WW!

Directly upon these builders, then, rests the ultimate success of the projectg so, too, the development of the student depends upon the cogency of his teachers. We were very fortunate in having such an excellent facultyg they were not only instructors but also coun- selors and friends. These, then, are the men to whom we are so much indebted - the men who so greatly influenced our future. The longer I live the more convinced I am that the little things in life are most important. My predecessor, Lieutenant King, insisted that the little things be done well. He was right. Daily living includes many of them. Find them.: You will be happier and go farther. XVILMER A.

The ultimate result was naturally dependent upon the potential of the materialsg but, more important, it was also dependent upon the guiding genius of the builders. Of course, their primary objective was to impart their knowledge to usg but at the same time they were trying to guide us toward the paths in which we could best employ our individual interests and capabilities, particularly by encouraging initiative on our part. Here, then, are the builders at work. Now LISTEN HERE You BoYs.' O.K. LETS GET ON THIS TRAIN.H W tn Y? wfWH-funn I4 J 1 . 4-4 'Uhnqi ,394 Wm' , , 5,'V v, ' ills..

While scholarship is, of course, the basic building block of education, there are many other factors to be considered. Extra-curricular activities are an important element in a well-rounded educationg they provide excellent opportunity for im- provement. We were very fortunate in having such a variety of ac- tivities from which to chooseg our widespread interest in these activi- ties was best shown by the fact that some eight hundred awards were presented each year. The value of such school activities lies in the fact that our participation made us more versatile and, in a larger sense, served to broaden our general perspective. This integral part of our school life is presented in the following pages. '2E1 H rs ,Ig f ' X MII' N? a B: 9 ' all Q i 1 ll '29 f t 5 Q , M f' 0 t .i., A 45.959 1 l 7 0 .

To date, the Art Club has been highly successful in the realization of its aims. Those students interested in the fine arts have done many oil paintings, water color paintings, charcoal and pastel draw- ings, and pen-and-ink drawings. For those students interested in making art objects, there have been ceramics, pottery-making, and mobiles to do. Meanwhile, those boys interested in the commercial end have gained invaluable experience in handling displays, making signs and posters, and learning how to use the commercial display tools. The club has also been of great service to the school. This club is responsible for most of the posters and art work which is to be found in the school. XPUR TXMEN CLUB The Sportsmen Club was organized for the purpose of increasing and fur- thering an interest in the conservation of America's wild life and natural re- sources. The meetings stressed the prac- tical application of conservation as fit the club's means. Many motion pictures were shown dealing with the aspects of hunting and fishing with regard to con- servation. In addition, much of the club's work was put on display around the school. A tract of land in Patapsco State Park was promised to the club by the state. The Sportsmen plan to plant pine trees to prevent erosion, to stock rivers with fish, and to improve the banks of rivers for fishing. 20 MA CHINIX T CLUB The Machinist's Club was organized last year, l953, by Mr. Otto of the Practice Department for the purpose of providing more extensive opportunities in machine shop work to those Poly students who may be interested. In order to further their knowledge of industrial methods and tools, the club members of the Machinist Club develop skill in the use of machine tools by actually working in the shop on projects ranging from home workshop tools to school equipment. Much of this work is done co-operatively with the radio, metallurgy, and rocket clubs. Students in all courses, particularly the A course, find the club enlightening and beneficial. Of- ficers for the current year are Hines, K2, Crawford, D5, Wootton, Bl, and Young, B3. MA THEMA TICX CLUB The purposes and aims of the Math- ematics Club are: flj to study various topics in advanced mathematics that re- quire little preliminary experience in mathematics, QD to stimulate interest in mathematics as a profession and a hobby, QQ to encourage the develop- ment of mathematical methods of thinking among those students who demonstrate a liking for mathematics. Among the subjects studied last year were the theory of mathematical ma- chines, the theory of sets, mathematical logic, matrices, and group theory. The club attended a lecture at I.B.M. of- fice on some of their computers. Mr. Bernhardt presented a new approach to the study of algebra for the student who wishes to cover the field of elementary algebra in a short time. Although the club is relatively new and its member- ship small, it has already delved into some of the more intricate branches of modern mathematics. 2l BUARD STUDENT ACTIVITIEX The Senate Club, this year, has made tremendous progress and has shown con- siderable activity throughout the entire school year. Because the purpose of the club is to give boys an opportunity to learn to and actually speak before an audience, the membership is necessarily small: otherwise, only a few boys would gain the all important experience. In the past school year, there have been two intra-mural debates, one be- fore the freshmen and sophomore class- es, and one before the junior and senior classes, several club debates, and one de- bate with the Institute of Notre Dame. Next year, a debate with Western is al- most certain and other debates are planned. CHEXX CLUB The Board of Student Activities, more commonly known as the B.S.A., is one of the most important organizations in the school. lt is responsible for co ordinating the Polytechnic clubs and activities which are non-athletic. This organization takes charge of any reve- nue received from the clubs and makes allotments to each club according to the club's needs and activities. Member- ship in this organization is limited to a certain group of hand-picked students. Towards the end of each year, the B.S.A. meets with the principal, vice principal, and faculty representatives and presidents of the various clubs to determine the non-athletic awards given each year. The Chess Club, Poly's oldest, had a most successful season last term. This club, which is less than a year shy of a golden anniversary, added a few new features to its program. First, the idea of inter-club tourna- ments was inaugurated. Second, a few members completed a chess set to be used for demonstration purposes. It consists of a large metal board with magnetic chess pieces. Third, the Chess Club played an active part in a newly formed inter-scholastic chess lea- gue. Although the Poly Chess Team didn't snare first place, it provided plenty of competition and did its best. As for the future, the chess team will be more experienced next year and will do better. Being a half-century old, the club plans for a top-notch year next term. It will engage in all kinds of activities in what is destined to be a chess wild year. The French Club is striving to aid its mem- bers in developing a larger working vocabu- lary in French and to promote a better un- derstanding of French art and culture. By popular demand, the club will print a helpful list of French idioms to aid those students who are studying for examinations in French. The Club's major activity for the season was a public presentation of the first act of Topaze, by Panoe, for the French clubs in the various high schools of the city and the Executive Committee of the Poly P.T.A. FRENCH CLUB The activities of the Automobile Club cen- tered around illustrated talks, film strips, mo- tion pictures and tours of local modern automobile shops. The subjects covered the operation of the ignition system, internal combustion engine, carburetor, cooling sys- tem, brakes, fluid drive, automatic clutch, economy of operation, driving hazards, safety, how to hop up a car, customizing, sport car races and like subjects of interest to the members. TUMBL ING CL UB The Tumbling Club of the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute was formed early in October, 1953. Its purpose is to pro- mote interest in fields of gymnastics and tumbling. Its activities have been somewhat limited because of a lack of facilities, however, it is hoped that the situation will eventually improve. Under the advisership of Mr. Epstein of the English Department, who has had previous experience in this field, the Tumbling Club has become a charter member of the B.S.A. and has held regular meetings despite handicaps throughout the school year. The club's activities for the year were climaxed by presenting a tumbling exhibition in the 1954 Poly Follies. Proposed activities for the club next year include participa- tion in the Follies and a trip to one of the gymnastic competitions held at the U. S. Naval Academy. AUTUMUBILE CLUB X,- SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club goes beyond the classroom in that members of the club demonstrate experiments concerning phases and phenomena of science not taught in the curricula at Poly. During the past year experiments and lectures were given on such topics as nuclear physics, organic chemistry, Einstein's theo- ries, and many phases of chemistry. The club went on two trips, one to the laboratories of the Proctor and Gamble Company in Baltimore and one to the new science building at Goucher College. The club has become very much interested in the field of nuclear physics, and as a result many experiments have been performed in this field. The club has also requested permission to construct a nuclear reactor to further its desires for knowledge in the field of atomic physics. PR UJE C TIUNIX T CL UB - -- - The Projectionist Club of Poly is one of the most important clubs in the school. Besides furnishing mo- tion picture projector operators for the school, the club has many outside activities. In the past year, the membership has greatly increased and the club extended its program. New members are taught the method of operating the two different types of motion picture projectors which belong to the school. The increased training program helps to prepare boys for careers in the rapidly growing audioivisual field. In addition, boys are taught the principles of operation of the other types of motion picture equipment. In order to gain further knowledge of professional methods, the club visited the Playhouse Theatre a few months ago, inspected their modern projection facilities, and learned safety precautions involved in .their operation. A theatre size panoramic screen was installed in the Polyt ihnic audltorium by .the Projectionist Club. Through the years the Projectionist Club has become an integral part of the Polytechnic system. 24 WUUDCAR VING CLUB The Woodcarving Club was recently organized for the purpose of providing those students at Poly who are interested in woodcarving with the means of broadening their knowledge and experience in the art of woodcarving. The members work with various woodcarving tools, such as: wood chisels, gouges, X-acto wood- carving sets, electric powered handgrinders, and even the ordinary pocketknife. Instruction is given by the adviser on the proper useage of the bandsaw, circular saw, and grinding wheels. The club hopes to purchase an engraving set which will be used for the carving of bone material. During the year, new books on the subject of carving were reviewed and discussed by members of the club. Projects so far included the building of bookend-s, salad sets, wall plaques, neckerchief slides, and an- imal carvings. LIBRAR Y CLUB The Library Club is a service organization under the guidance of the librarian, Mrs. Atwood. The club performs many duties which affect the success of the library. The main purpose of the club is to stimulate interest and offer assistance to the student body in the use of the library. The members of the club take charge of desk work, circulation, fines, shelving, the maintenance of displays, and other general library duties. Po1y's library club is a member of the Maryland Council of State Library Clubs, and a member of the club holds the office of treasurer of the council. Besides keeping the library in top shape, the club also attends social functions. Members of the club make trips to other school libraries and sponsor an annual Christmas Party for several other school libraries in Baltimore City and the surrounding counties. 25 AQUARIA CLUB gl? The aim of the Aquaria Club is to breed rare tropical fish and study their habits. At present the club has fish of many types, from goldfish to guppies and even an occasional tadpole. Club members take turns in caring for the fish - feeding and changing water. Peri- odic contests are held to determine which mem- ber can raise the rarest tropical fish and the lar- gest number. At the meetings the members are given lectures and view slides and movies per- taining to tropical fish. Various trips have been planned, one to the aquarium at the Baltimore Zoo and another to the Fish and Reptile House at the VVashington Zoo. ln the future the club hopes to expand with the purchase of some larger tanks, better equipment and a greater variety of specimens. CAMERA CL UB IEE! ..,,. ,,, Under the leadership of Mr. Sauer, adviser, the Camera Club has accomplished a great deal this year. First of all, a new darkroom was constructed which included workbenches, cabinets and ample storing space for photographic supplies. The darkroom contains the latest type facilities for the developing and enlarging of photographs, etc. The members took two trips: one to the Pennsylvania Railroad and the other to the Bethlehem Dry- docks. The latter trip afforded great opportunity for the taking of pictures of the U.S.S. Constitution. As has been done in recent years, the more advanced members of the club gave lectures pertaining to the various aspects of photography. The last major activity of the year was a contest in which the members com- peted for cash prizes. The pictures were judged by the Lensmen, a photographic organization in Baltimore. 26 RUCKET CLUB The Rocket and Guided Missile Research So- ciety of Poly is one of the newer clubs, being formed in the fall of 1952. This society, how- ever, came to be one of the most active clubs in the school. In the past year and a half the club and its activities has been growing steadily. Lately, these activities have taken in the new and extensive field of liquid fuel pro- pulsion systems. The two major tests that have been held were two tests in the field of rocketry using solid propellants. By the time vou read this article several more tests will have taken place. The society looks forward next year mostly to static testing of motors. The society is nationally recognized and it hopes to be more successful in the years to come. METALCRAFT CLUB The Metalcraft Club has become one of the largest and most active clubs at Poly by developing creativeness and skill in working with the semi-precious metals. The mode ern shop of Mr. Longley, adviser to the club, enables the boys to pursue their in- terests in metalcraft and to learn the many operations of the metalsmith. Members of the club are gaining practical experience by constructing mechanical apparatus, such as. the steam boiler, which entailed much ingenuity to build. The club has been presenting, at its meetings, instruction in the fundamentals of metalcraft. 27 ADVISER EDYYOY' bww, if B.

Adviser SALES ENGINEERING CLUB Since Poly is such a highly technical school, a club such as the Sales-Engineering Club, just started this year, was welcomed to the already long list of extra-curricular activities. The club, as the name implies, studies the selling of ideas, machinery, salesmanship, and selling as a pro- fession. Men have come from the many industrial plants in and around Baltimore to speak to the club and discuss, informally, this profession. Some of the members of the club entered the recent Selling as a Career essay contest and did very well. There is much to learn about sales-engineering, and tl1e future looks promising for this club, since the club teaches the art of salesmanship. UNITED NA TIONX CLUB The Polytechnic United Nations Club is a part of a national association of youth who wish to work for better understand- ing among the various peoples of the world. It offers an opportunity to join with those interested in public events that will mould the world they are to live in. The United Nations Association of Maryland presents a program each month for high school students, and the Polytechnic Club participates in the planning and presenta- tion of these programs. Each member of the Polytechnic Club assumes the respon- sibility of keeping the other members in- formed of the events in some particular foreign country. Members of the club are encouraged to form contacts with foreign students. 30 RADIO CLUB During the season 1953-1954, the Radio Club, whose call number is W3CDI, did much per- taining to ham radio. In the spring of 1953, a high-powered radiotelephone transmitter was completed, its name being The Big Rig , and an auditorium program was presented to the school. Field Day , which is a contest between all the hams of the United States and Can- ada, saw the club place among the top forty stations. During the following winter, many ad- ditional improvements were made on the radio equipment used by the club, and much new radio equipment was constructed. As evidence of the progress being made, fifteen members of the club obtained ham licenses in the past year. The club plans to extend its activities even more next year, hoping both to expand its membership and to add new equipment. STA GECRAFT CLUB The Stagecraft Club, under the direction of Mr. DeCaesar of the Practice Depart- ment, is one of the most active clubs in the school because of the services it performs for the school, which consists of preparing the auditorium stage for assemblies. Two months previous to the Poly Follies, the stage crew can be seen preparing scenery and so forth for this annual event. How- ever, not all the activities of this club per- tain to the school, for it assists many out- side organizations, many from the school JAX system, which come to the Polytechnic au- ditorium to perform. 31 1' y X ,- fri M P069 060 HQ ix V When Len and Bill received their draft notices, they felt that fate had dealt them an unkind blow. They did think, however, that going into the army would give them an opportunity to escape the matri- monially mindedness of Helen and Alice. In this they underestimated the girls, Basic training came close to making their early fears come true. Nevertheless, the presence of beau- tiful dancing girls and the adventures of overseas duty made life bearable for the boys. ..i,, ' -:----z- -. an eff - I . , M ' Q QW I ff .'

GET THF, mnmfu 1 in fl x HIXTURICAL CLUB GLEE CLUB .The Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. McBride, participated in the Christmas assembly, the Spring Concert, and the Poly Follies. Next year, the club is planning to increase the number of their entertainment programs by giving presentations not only for Poly but for several other high schools as well. Even though only a few of last year's members returned to help reorganization, the club performed exceptionally well. Since the club lacks the color of female voices, a plan for the merger of the glee clubs of Poly and Western High is being seriously considered. Although the Glee Club is not very large, its membership is on the increase and the future look-s bright. The Historical Society, one of the most active clubs in the school, helps its members learn more about history through field trips to places of interest, reports on historical topics, and talks by peo- ple closely associated with historical subjects. In the past the club has visited many historical points of interest, including Annapolis, Johns Hopkins University, The Carrol Mansion, and many others. The club has also started two long range projects. The first of these was started last spring when two books dealing with Maryland history were purchased. The other is a growing file of newspaper stories and magazine articles dealing not only with Maryland history but American and World his- tory as well. The club presents a well-balanced program which many find interesting. 34 CUNCER T BAND fa Although the instrumental music facilities at B.P.I. are limited, the Marching and Concert Bands have made great achievements during 1953-1954. They displayed their playing and marching abilities, at all pep rallies and football games. When the Marching Band closed its season, at the Poly-City game, the Concert band got to work in earnest. This organization, only two years old, played a concert for the student body, a concert at Samuel Gompers Vocational School, and participated in the city-wide Instrumental Festival. Its repetoire consists of marches, classical and semi-classical numbers, sambas, jazz, and many other types of music. The most important event of the year, however, is the Maryland Band Day held at the University of Maryland, where the band competes with other bands from Maryland and vicinity. These two bands, because of their untiring efforts to represent the school, have certainly de- served the support of the school. XPANIXH CLUB The recently organized Spanish Club of the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute strives to promote a better understanding and appreciation of Hispanic civilization and culture. It is now affiliated wth the Hispanic Institute and is able to obtain extremely helpful material in connection with various activities. Certain annual events which occur during the school year are appropriately cele- brated by the club. On the 23rd of April each year, the Fiesta de la Iengua espmzola is observed in commemoration ofthe death of Miguel de Cervantes, a Spaniard who is hailed as having been one of the greatest writers in literary history. Ample time is allowed before Cervantes Day to permit students to pre- pare an essay on this great man's life. The compositions are then judged, the winner receiving a handsome certificate and bronze medal. The club also sponsors a yearly social gathering featuring Spanish music and authentic Spanish food. Plans are now under way for an annual program for Pan-American Day which will be pre- sented to the student body. CRAFTXMEN ct UB g In any school, as well as in the home, there are odd jobs to be done which a person enjoys doing as an avocation. The Poly Craftsmen were organized for the purpose of making repairs to broken or wornout equipment at Poly. This service club is one of the most appreciated clubs at Poly. Any time there is a repair to be made, no matter how large or how small, the Poly Craftsmen will do it. One can derive pleasure from repairing something which has been broken, or replacing worn out parts, if he is personally interested in the organization and feels that his efforts are being appreci- ated. That is the attitude of the Poly Craftsmen. PUL Y AER ONEERX The purpose of the Poly Aeroneers is to promote the designing, building, and flying of all types of flying model aircraft. Meetings are held on Friday afternoon of each week of the school term. Contests for competition between club members are held whenever possible at sites con- venient to the club members. A perpetual trophy is awarded at the end of the school year to the most active member. Many club members belong to the Academy of Model Aeronautics, a sub- division of the National Aeronautical Association, which governs and protects all such flyers as well as sponsoring various contests throughout the country. In a recent contest at Harbor Field, two members of the Poly Aeroneers were able to win two trophies and other merchandise awards. To- ward the end of the school year the club participated in an assembly program. 36 gg M Included in the roster of the Board of Student Activities is the Metallurgy Club, which teaches its members the fundamentals of foundry work. Meetings are held every Friday, during which time various club projects are discussedg and castings are made under the supervision of Mr. YVebster, the able faculty adviser. The club has turned out beautiful and lasting objects which are made for use and decoration, such as copper alloy ashtrays, wrenches, and novelties, many of which are donated to the school. Although the club is not a service club, it has, in more ways than one, rendered a great service to the school. This is one of the oldest clubs at Poly and perhaps one of the oldest high school stamp and coin clubs in the country. The purpose of the club is to provide the 'lstamp collectors at Poly a chance to cultivate and enlarge their hobby. In the collection of stamps owned by the club, there are some very valuable and rare specimens. At the meetings, the members receive lectures and view slides and movies on various stamps, their histories, and their collectors. Several contests were held within the club in which prizes of valuable stamps were awarded. The Stamp and Coin Club also sponsors schoolawide stamp displays from which anyone outside the club may purchase or trade stamps. Many of the club members also participate in outside stamp contests. 37 ETALLURGY C STAMP fl CUIN CLUB --.Q 1 1 F V, , 9 5 ,, N 5 QV t t ' r -- i c of ' I l 1 ' ' Q n g av u A -5-' , -.Q .

We profited much by realizing the advantages of team- work when trying to overcome stiff competitiong we learned how to accept defeat courageously and victory graciously. Our teams were highly successful for the school year l953-l954- Poly athletes garnered eight M.S.A. titles and two Public School titles. The real value of our athletic program, however, was best shown by the fact that hundreds of boys were able to participate in athletics fix , - 2 M y Pl f X z K X 4 1 li 6T'm' r f f xx QUE 4 X 43 E I W if X W , , A46 M 1 , g x X 1 L 1 1 I Sttmdmg, L. to R.: Lon Russ, Assist.

GRIDMEN UNDEFEA TED The 1953 edition of the Poly Gridiron Machine got off to a good start by literally tearing apart a favored Coatesville, Pennsylvania, team, 38-8, on the losers' field. Willis Johnson, jack Royston, Frank Highland, and Tom Schaffer scored overland, Schaffer going 74 yards through right tackle. Dowell Schwartz passed to Russ Hildebrand and Len Zembas accounted for the other score on a 55-yard return of an intercepted pass. The following week Poly met Patterson Park, the defending M.S.A. champs. Tech defeated the Clippers 13-7, thus becoming the first team to beat them since 1949. Tom Schaffer and Frank Highland did the scoring, while the line play of Stu Schuck, Jim Gilstrap, and Otts McGee was outstanding. The following week, the Plumbers easily trounced a listless Gilman aggregation to the tune of 33-0. After this massacre Poly encountered what was to be the tough- est eleven of the campaign - St. .Ioe's Gaels. After a grueling first half battle, which ended 0-0, Tom Schaffer took the opening kickoff and raced the length of the field to score standing up - but it was ruled that he stepped out of bounds on the 50-yard line. This was the most serious scoring threat of the game, as neither team got within the other's 20-yard line in the ensuing half. The following Friday night, however, the Lumsden Men recovered from a 12-0 halftime deficit to thump Forest Park 26-12, the last score coming on the last play of the game. The next week, Poly defeated Loyola 25-6 to remain unbeaten. Tom Myers blocked a second period punt and Tech's midget right end, Tom Joyce, picked it up A and raced into the end zone. The following week's game with Severn was cancelled. Severn refused to reschedule the game and forfeited. As a tune-up for the City game, Poly rebounded from a 7-0 halftime score to trounce Southern, 20-7 . Right end Tom Joyce accounted for two scores, and left end Otts McGee accounted for the other on a 70-yard pass play. The Engineers closed their 1953 season by trimming City 6-0, thus completing the best record ever compiled by a Polytechnic team. In the last three seasons, B.P.I. has lost only one game while winning 23 and tying 3. In the Poly-City game, Tech drove to the City 18 early in the first quarter, but a fumble at this point ended the threat. In the second quarter, Poly moved to City's 35 and later to the 30, but lost the ball on downs each time. Poly took the second half kickoff and marched for its only score. Willis johnson, on fourth down, took a reverse from Tom Schaffer, dodged around his own right end, and sprinted 22 yard-s to the goal. Larry Krug, the team's unsung hero, was instrumental in the march. Geno Roscoe, john Runk, Tom Myers, Ron- nie Ellis, and Fred Kern also played terrific ball for the Engineers. City gained posses-sion of the ball on Tech's 16-yard line in the closing minutes, but Stu Schuck re- covered a fumble to end the threat. Although undefeated, Poly finished second in the M.S.A. to McDonogh's Cadets, who played a mediocre schedule which didn't include any of the top teams of the league, nevertheless, all loyal football fans knew who actually deserved the title. iid i W, PH lfi .W f f '!fI Q-4 we an if 5 VW ,,Eivfs,,,q.'

CRUW Po1y's Cross-country harriers started on their campaign this year looking forward to a successful season. Coach Waldo Hambleton started conditioning his boys early, anticipating another M.S.A. championship. The varsity team was led by Don Stenley, who was Tech's first man across the line in nearly every race. He was closely fol- lowed by the entire team - Captain Lou Sergi, last year's M.S.A. champ, Bob Kennedy, who is next year's cap- tain, Paul Schlenker, Charley Fleming, Joe Palmer, A1 Willis, Edgar Popp, Kay Taylor, and Tom Savin. In Tech's opening meet they met a top-notch Maryland Frosh team that outclassed them by a 'score of 15-47. Stenley was our first man in with 10:29. Preceding the M.S.A., Po1y's A team ran in the J.H.U. Spiked Shoe Race, where they competed against teams from the Bal- timore area along with teams from Virginia and Dela- ware. Again our men came home winners. Our first man was Paul Schlenker, who finished the 25 mile course in second place. Following were Stenley, finish- ing 3rd, and Fleming, finishing 10th. All eyes then turned toward the M.S.A. This race proved to be the fastest race for everyone. Stenley was again our first man with a time of 11:01, 3 seconds be- hind the first place runner. Polyls Sergi, Kennedy, Sch- lenker, and Fleming finished in that order. Poly won with a score of 24 point-s. Closest were City with 59 and St. Joe with 88. In one of our dual meets of the season, Poly A ran against Towson, City, and Dundalk, while Poly B ran against Towson and City. Both A and B teams won their respective races with ease. In the A race, Don Stenley crossed the line ahead of the pack with a record time for the Towson course of 10:52. Scoring also were Kennedy, Sergi, Schlenker, Fleming and Palmer. In the HB race, the first Poly man across the line was Ed Popp, who ran second. Tom Savin was right behind Popp running in fourth place, with Taylor and Schultz finishing sixth and eighth respectively. Stenley and Lusby lead the field in the M.S.A. And they're off! D ,,., C M. BOUTERX TIE Fon LEA CUE CRUWN cm Joe Fisher A long time had lapsed since joe Fisher worked hard with his boys to produce a hard playing team. After weeks of practicing and conditioning, Poly entered into its schedule of preseason exhibition games. Their first game was a test of skill in passing and shooting, for Tech had a very worthy adversary in the 1952 County Cham- pions, Catonsville. Tom Quaranta and Dick Lang scored the two goals which paced Poly to a 2-l victory. Before much time elapsed we found ourselves being hosts to a high spirited Dundalk team at Clifton Park. In this game Poly showed its superiority and self-confidence which led to a quite decisive victory of 6-2. Carrying on the next week, Poly met its match in a strong Towson team, which, incidentally, became the County Cham- pions of l953. Poly, leading 2-l late in the second half, suffered its first injury of the season when Roger Ken- nard, goalie, suffered a sprained wrist, and was replaced. A goal soon followed with only two minutes remaining and the game ended in a 2-2 deadlock. We then follow- ed with a 2-l victory over Glen Burnie at Clifton Park on A goal soon followed with only two minutes remaining, a very windy day, which tested Tech's skill in controlling the ball. The following week at Clifton Park we played the most sportsmanlike team of the season, it was Center- ville High School. A close game saw Poly down their new rival to the score of 3-2. With this fine record of 4 wins and 1 tie, Poly entered the Maryland Scholastic Association flag race, their first opponent being Park. Poly, looking exceptionally good, defeated Park, 6-3, on goals by Tom Quaranta, Dick Lang, and Toras Char- chalis. Our second engagement was against a strong Patterson team. Poly completely outplayed the Pats and triumphed by a score of 4-2. Still keeping his charges in tip-top condition, Coach Fisher met a much weaker and more inexperienced team in Merganthaler and easily triumphed, 6-0. Poly's only setback came on the follow- ing Friday when the City College team defeated Poly 3-l. The decisive breaks were two successful penalty shots on which they capitalized. This proved to be the game that kept Poly from lone possession of the crown. The following week, Poly remained in contention by an impressive victory over Calvert Hall. A goal by Warren Jones was good enough for victory, although Calvert Hall threatened several times. The last game of the '53 season came against the Gaels of St. Aloe. Poly needing a victory, for the crown, played a superb game, but the best they could do was a scoreless tie. Thus, Poly had to share the crown with Calvert Hall and Patterson, two teams which they beat in league play. Poly got a portion of the crown for the first time since l942. High scorers for the Poly team during the '53 campaign were: Tom Quaranta, who had l5 goals, 8 coming dur- ing practice games and 7 during league play, and Dick Lang, following him with I0 tallies, 6 non league and 4 league. Other scorers were: Toras Charchalis with 6, John Kusma with 4, Tony Edringus and Dave Meredeth, each with 3.

Possible returnees for next year's team include Dick Lang, Gil Schuerholz, Mike Meredith, Dave Meredith, and Tom Quaranta. Together with these boys as a nucle- us and a few outstanding players from the J.V. team, Coach Fisher is looking forward to another successful season.

BAXKETBALL The varsity quintet opened the '53-'54 prep basketball season with a 62-54 win over City College. The game was a close, hard-fought battle down to the final three minutes, but then the Techmen staged a rally that put us in front by eight points. The game's high scorers were Al Utara - I5 points, jon Bankert - 123 Al Slechter - ll, and Neil Schmidt - 10. The hoopsters next trounced Mervo Tech by a score of 66-34. The entire team saw action in this game, the high scorers being Al Utara and John Brauer with 12 points each. In its third league tilt, Poly suffered its first defeat by losing to Southern, 70-62, in a high-scoring, close battle. Tech broke back into the win column - and into first place in the standings - by defeating a strong Patterson Park team by 49-43. The game was a tight contest all the way to the wire, but the high-spirited Tech team, led by the sharp shooting of Neil Schmidt, emerged vic- toriou-s. Despite the spectacular playing of Al Slechter, the quintet lost its next game to a surprisingly strong Forest Park team by a score of 75-62. Mason, 32, and O'Hara, 25 get set to take rebound from opposing Gilman players. The team lost its most important game of the season by losing to Patterson by a score of 39-36, in a close, hard- fought game. This defeat eliminated Poly from M.S.A. contention in so far as the title was concerned. The Poly attack was led by Al Utara and john Mason with twelve and nine points respectively. The disheartened Techmen closed the cage cam- paign with a 68-63 loss to Forest Park. O'Hara paced Poly's losing effort-with twenty points, closely followed by Al Utara with eighteen points, The team finished the league schedule with a reason- ably successful 5-5 league record. The team was stronger than their record indicated, however, for the team was never decisively beaten, their losses being all close battles that could have just as easily been victories. Cushner takes jump shot for Poly while covered by Hollingsworth of Southern. Utara and Freeburger await rebound. Next season's team should be a strong contender for the championship, for Coach Aaronson will have vet- erans john Mason, Al Utara, and joe O'Hara around whom to build a new team. In addition, Bob Cush- ner, Mickey Salvarola, and some outstanding junior Var- sity players will complement the aforementioned trio and make Poly the team to beat for next season. Poly opened the second round of play with a heart- breaking 35-33 defeat at the hands of City College. Led by Al Utara with 15 points, the team fought desperately down to the final buzzer, but to no avail. In the next game Poly journeyed to Mervo Tech and handed them a trouncing by a score of 58-33. Forward Joe O'Hara paced the triumphant Poly team with lil points in a game that had the entire Tech bench seeing action. The Techrnen continued their winning with an im- pressive 60-49 victory over Calvert Hall in a non-league game played on the loser's court. Neil Schmidt and john Brauer paced the Poly attack with 15 and l2 points, respectively. Leading by only three points at the half, the Tech hoopsters broke the game wide open in the third quarter and coasted to an easy victory through the final quarter. ff' if ,wif 'I ?

The Tech Marksmen not only won the M.S.A. Cham- pionship, but they upped the old scoring record on numerous occasions and established two records during the season. ms.. .,,.., ,V ,W . .,.. .gwmo B b Edwards presents the team trgphy won in the M.S.A. to Coach YVebster. fe.. 5 1. --v--e..-r,v.s:.:. are The Engineer Riflers gave indication of their potential in equalling the old record of 494 out of a possible 500 points in their first match of the season against the Patterson Park Clippers. A week later Poly dumped McDonogh's Cadets 497-493, thus break- ing the old record by three points. The Tech sharpshooters rolled over every team in the league in its relentless march to the championship. The Engineers reached their peak as the season waned. Poly soundly trounced Mc- Donogh, the league runner up, for the second straight time to the tune of 498-489. In the last mentioned meet three Tech shooters turned in possibles, Captain Bob Ed- wards, Larry Hampt, and Jon Taylor each sored 100, while Frank Fitch and Charley Schied both notched 99's. Although the new record stands only two points from a per- fect team score, there is considerable speculation on the part of coach and team mem- bers that the perfect record will be attained during next season's competition. Characteristic of this team was the way it could get up for the tough matches. The record scores against the second best team is evidence of that. Also, against Patter- son Park, who finished third in the title race, the Riflers fired 494 both times. A score of 494 may seem mediocre beside the new record, but a score of 494 out of a possible 500 points dominated the M.S.A. for many years. Throughout the season Frank Fitch and Captain Bob Edwards consistently paced the team to victory. Jon Taylor, Bernard Spangler, Charles Scheid, and Wayne Hopf, who incidentally will be back for next year's team along with Fitch, were im- measurably valuable to the team. Also contributing to the impeccable Tech record were Dave Gillespie, Stuart Dob- son, Elmer Goodrich, Walt Callis, and John Ruthke. I wouldn't want to make any comparison with past teams because somebody might think I'm casting reflections, but this team's record speaks for itself, says Coach Web- ster. 52 x F 5 1 1 l 3' K iiaiwrl Il T1 tr 'X Xi .xx C Q- s 'Q r - -,-..f,f 'sag , , A a if i Kneeling L. to R.: A.

ICE HUCKEY Having been absent from the league for a year, Tech's ice hockey team could do no better than turn in a l and 7 record for the season. Poly suffered its first defeat of the season in the opening game when a spirited Loyola team came from behind to trip Tech 6-3. After losing it's second game to the Forester's, Tech's pucksters surprised the St. joe Sextet when, with only 30 seconds to play in the last period, Romoser scored a goal to make the score 3-2. The remainder of the season saw a young and spirited Poly sextet suffer six defeats. Tech's skaters, although not having a victorious team did have excellent school spirit and sportsmanship. Andy Marriott, being the only veteran, was the back- bone of the team. He and Willis Johnson were the best scoring combination Poly had. Tech had one All- Maryland player, Andy Marriott, and two honorable mentions, Willis johnson, and Carl Van NewKirk. The success of this year's hockey team can be credit- ed to Mr. Carey, Poly's new ice hockey coach, who by his training the pucksters was responsible for the keen ccmpetition shown in the games throughout the season. Next year should see a great improvement for most of the team is returning for another season of play. POLY OPPONENT 3 ,... ....

X X WIMMING At the beginning of the season, Poly had all the material it needed for a championship swimming team. However, when February arrived and two of our top swimmers graduated and another became ineligible, the team suffered a decisive setback in its strength. In league competition, this season we had a record of four wins and four losses which enabled us to rank third in the Maryland Scholastic standings, behind the loop leader, City, and the runner up, St. Joe. In our first meet of the season we met a weak Calvert Hall team and promptly drubbed them, 68-6. The Forest Park meet, which was next on the schedule, was another lopsided affair. The Poly tankmen again won every event except the diving, to win with a score of 64-ll. We then encountered some tough opposition when we met City and St. joe. In our first meet with City they had to give it everything they had to win. The score was tied right up to the last event, the 160-yard. Freestyle Relay. In this event City nosed us out by one-tenth of a second. The case was very much the same when we competed against St. joe, as they edged us out by one point, 38-37. De- spite the winning efforts of Bob Beach in the 40-yard Freestyle, Caples, Broom, and Beach again in the Medley Relay, and Les Palmer who won the diving, we were unable to get the necessary 2 points to win. Our tankmen made two trips this season - to Mercersburg and the Naval Academy. Unfortunately, we lost both meets, but we all had a good knowledge by meeting swimmers with much more experience and skill than Poly's team possessed. The M.S.A., which winds up the swimming season each year, came around with most of the team in top condition. After the trials and several Poly swimmers qualified for the finals, Bob Beach won the finals of the 40-yard Freestyle in 19.7 seconds. This gave him the honor of being champion in that event for three consecutive years. In the 200-yard Freestyle, Ritter, who holds the j.V. record for that event, finished fourth in the Varsity ranks. In the 100-yard Free- style, Bromwell finished second, Caples third, and Rippel fourth. Last of all, the 160-yard Freestyle Relay team of Roach, Kotowski, Caples, and Beach, completed the year's swimming as they took the title in that event, just miss- ing the record by one and three-tenths seconds. 54 McGaffin, Beach, and Lilly awaif the Swimmers level off for the 200. gun. v -------1 V -f - . ...,,......., .

WRESTLING Poly's grappling team entered its rough schedule with a team which was a good one but weak in spots. These weaknesses were due mostly to inexperience, which is the most advantageous attribute to a good wrestler. Had the team not been so well conditioned by Coach joe Fisher, by hard practiced drills, to build the team's endurance, they would have finished far lower on the scholastic slate. A match with Southern showed the team's capabilities, for in most cases it was the endurance of the Poly wrestlers which enabled them to beat Southern. The colorful wrestlers of the match were Ronnie McGee, Wally Crum, and Jim Gilstrap. Our next opponent, Patterson, was much stronger in most weight classes, but had to Work hard for their victory over a resisting Poly spirit. The injury of Doug Woodward prior to this match could have been a decisive factor in the match. Things took a turn for the better, as Poly routed St. Joe with a 27-10 score, by hard wrestling and endurance. With things looking good for Tech, their next opponents, Mervo Tech, fell victim to a 32-8 Poly victory. just as Tech's record was showing improvement, it found itself overwhelmed by a far more experienced group of Gilman grapplers, who had little trouble in grasping a victory from Poly. Having a record of two -setbacks and three wins was not bad, but Poly found itself almost completely off the mat against the current champions, McDonogh. It was a grueling loss, in which Tech scored only three points. With this even record of three and three, Poly met City for a last chance to better its record. City felt the strong, stern arm of Poly as Tech came out on top. With this match Poly concluded its sea- son with the exception of the M.S.A. Championships at Homewood. Tech's entries were Jim Gilstrap, heavyweight, Captain Fred Frommelt at 145, Harvey Sellers at 133, Bink Beinkampen at 154, Ronnie McGee at 112, Bob Sanford at 120, Al Hladik at 127, Carl Majesky at 138, John Corcoran at 175, and Wally Crum in the 165 pound class. Coach Fisher hoped for four places in the competition. He was not sure of what the outcome would be and was disappointed to find that only one of his boys finished on top. Poly's only M.S.A. championship wrestler was Jim Gilstrap, undefeated heavyweight. Poly can look forward to a good team next season, rest as- sured.

However, when the second round started, Poly was faced with opponents determined to releave it of its league lead. Mr. Jaffe, Poly's coach, was well aware of the impending danger and knew that a struggle was in store for his fine team. The second round had wasted away to the very last day. After beating City and Cal- vert Hall, Poly and Mervo, respectively, were the only two teams left on the hardwood. The match showed keen competition and was close all the Way. When the rolling had ceased, and the pins were tallied, the score showed that Poly had gained a sufficient vic- tory over Mervo-Tech and had thereby remained the leader through the second round. This, of course, meant that Poly was this year's M.S.A. champion. Poly's leading rollers, Leizears and Sill, with ll8 and 114 averages, respectively, dis- played all-star ability throughout the season and proved to be Poly's most valuable as- sets. This year was Mr. Jaffe's first year in the role of boss of Poly's kegleggers. He was very happy at the outcome, especially since this year's M.S.A. title was the fifth con- secutive for Poly in five years. Mr. Jaffe is already looking forward to next year's sea- son and the expectancy of a sixth straight title. im 56 A 2 -1+.....x.w -f-,ev .--in-Gu.-L..,Q.' - ,,,.,, . ,,..a..., Mf....W.,.y. .. . if ai. f-W..-,, . ..,. . ,shew-vm-, -,. f tri, . 2 , , tj i 1 U , .gg- 3 -A u. , '- 1 1 .-44.4 ,.,.,.,,,--. 4, Q- fa.. , -we-aan: L. to R.: H.

FENCING Poly opened the 1954 varsity fencing season with a 5-4 victory over City College, who replaced Patterson Park after being absent from Maryland Scholastic fencing competition since 1947. Poly's team, coached by Mr. Joseph Sheff, clinched the meet very early as Eugene Lew paced the team with three victories, while Bill Gough and Woody Wilson each chipped in with a win after being setback once. The losses were suffered by Bob Uhler and Earnest Quigley, who both lost very close matches by 5-4 scores. The next meet was the rubber meet for both teams, as the tables were reversed, with City capturing the varsity match and Poly winning the J.V. match, both by 5-4 scores. A valiant rally by Poly, which featured back-to-back victories by Eugene Lew, Bill Gough, and Woody Wilson in quick succession, was not enough to overcome City's early 3-0 lead. City took the next two matches, leaving Bob Uhler to win the last match for Poly. The final match with City tingled with excitement and suspense. Again City grabbed an early lead, forcing Poly to overcome a 2-0 deficit. After Lew and Gough brought Poly to within one match with City, the most controversial match of the season took place. With the score 4-3 in favor of City, Poly needed this match to remain in contention. Both coaches sent out the captains of their teams, Ralph Berdine of City and Eugene Lew of Poly. The score of the match jumped from side to side until it was finally deadlocked at four-all. A flurry of thrusts, parries, and repostes, the sounding of the referee's whistle, and then the long debate between the referees as to whether City or Poly made the touch. . . After much discussion the referees gave the match and the meet to City on the basis that City had made the touch before Poly. Poly's varsity fencers with their records for this year were: Eugene Lew, 6-3, Bob Uhler, l-1: Bill Gough, 4-5, Woody Wilson, l-5, and Earnest Quigley, 0-l. 57 I Eugene Lew scores on an opponent, Seated, L. to R.: B.

In the season's opener the varsity stickmen swamped Severn by a smothering 15-5 score on the loser's field. Outstand- ing playing on the part of Tom Joyce, who scored four goals, together with that of Roger Goss and Willi-s john- son, produced the overwhelming victory. After Tech thumped Gilman 14-4, Poly was marked as the team to beat in the M.S.A. Championship race. This time the pace was set by Roger Goss, who hooked five goals, fol- lowed by Johnson and Schmidt, with three and two goals respectively. Poly's next victory was felt by City, whom they defeated by rallying in the fourth quarter with three goals. With four victories under its belt, Poly scored three times in the second overtime period to down a fighting Forest Park team with a score of ll-8. A tie with Southern put Poly in the race for the title. Later victories over Patterson and McDonogh gave Tech as- surance of its championship possibilities. The Techmen clinched the public school title by drubbing Forest Park for the second time behind the endeavours of Bucky Struven, who made possible the 10-2 triumph. Poly con- cluded its Public School appearances when they defeated the Clippers 7-3 for their second victory over Patterson. Possessing the Public School Championship, Poly en- tered the M.S.A. Championship game against a slightly favored Friends team. Tech tallied three goals in the first minute and a half. Then Poly fell victim to five goals in a disastrous second quarter because of penalties of Poly stickmen. Unable to recover before the final whistle sounded, Poly emerged on the unpleasant end of a 9-5 score. George Breslau drew the credits for the Poly squad by tallying 3 markers. Finishing its season with such a fine record, including only one set back. Poly can be proud of its l954 Lacrosse team. f ., ,W e. . Ku!

Q32 x -X jj .V X :V if mga s 2LlA TRA CK A track and field team with lots of depth is destined for victories. Such was the case with Poly's 1954 track squad. Although inter- scholastic competition was steep, the desire to do better seemed to exist with each member of the team. This initiative is what made Poly go through a splendid season and become the M. S. A. Champion. Tech had a well rounded team in every respect. After a slow start, our field events improved rapidly. Gur top three throwers Kuegler, Sheridan, and Budzinski came through in great shape in each meet. Kuegler and Budzinski each scored in the M. S. A., Kuegler just short of a new record by a few inches. In the discus Tech was not outstanding but made a good showing. The pole-vaulting was carried on the should- ers of Huether and jones, who managed to outscore most of their op- ponents. In the high jump Mares, Knapp, and Hoim, later joined by Karmann, did well in their events. Poly's broad-jumpers though some- what inconsistent managed to come through when it was needed. Poly's track depth proved superior in every dual meet. In the hurdles Karmann, Jones and Baer filled the bill. In the 440-yard dash Sergi, Poly's most outstanding runner, took first in every scholastic meet. In the 100-yard dash Moffette, Dawson, and Caples had no trouble in outpointing their foes. In the 880-yard run the top notches on the team were held by Palmer, Schlenker, Taylor, and Willis. In the 220- yard dash Tech was at a loss with Adams' injury, but the job was well handled by Moffette, Marsh, and Caples. Our outstanding milers, Flemming, Schlenker, and Kennedy, made the event one of the most colorful of the Poly presentations as they all ran close with unusually strong finishes. - K! 1 . ...ix 1 . - j ' . 2 M I M' - .,- .gg , 1 Anchorman Lou Sergi takes over for the last lap. When the season closed, Poly again found itself M. S. A. Champion. As in previous years, the vic- tories of our runners can only be attributed to the untiring efforts of Poly's one-and-only track coach, VValdo Hambleton. M.S.A. finals see R. Moffette and R.

TENNIS As spring sports commenced for the l954 season, the varsity tennis team could be found on the Clifton Park courts practicing hard for the oncoming season. The team was composed mostly of freshmen and sophomores, for Coach Bader planned to make this a year of rebuild- ing the team. Having lost his entire championship team of l953 through graduation, Coach Bader stated that he could expect no more than an even split of wins and losses. Ralph Levin held the top spot in the Poly ranks for the entire season. He was followed by a group of promising netmen that stood in the order of Don Palughi, Dennis Eichhorn, Leroy Fosler, Paul Williams, Martin Freeman, Vito Penkuinas, Dick Jenkins, Mark Segall, and John Nastopka. The untested, inexperienced netmen entered league competition with a smashing 7-0 shutout of Mervo Tech, showing that the team had more potential than expected. Two more victories came later to the Techmen. One was on a drizzly day at Patterson Park where they took the wind out of the Clipper's sails by a 5-2 score. The third Tech victory came when the team shut out Southern with a smashing 7-0 viCt01'V. Poly was not quite so successful in their other contests, however, for they could not match the stronger, more experienced teams that they met throughout the season. The netmen suffered a 7-0 loss at the hands of Gilman, and then were edged by a far more experienced Mc- Donogh squad by a 5-2 score. The next loss came before the booming rackets of a well-coached, well-conditioned Hopkins Frosh team. Although considerably outclassed, the Tech squad tried valiantly before going down in de- feat. In the final contest of the season, the netmen drop- ped a match to Forest Park. Although the squad finished the season with only an average record, much more can be expected for the fol- lowing two years, at least. Since many of the players on this year's team are playing tennis for the first time, the experience gained by them in this, their first year of competitive tennis, should certainly produce much bet- ter results in the next few seasons. Coach Bader has done a fine job of rebuilding for the future and at the same time has managed to maintain a respectable record in the league standings. seated, L. to R.: C. Bewick, R. Rites, B.

M P V THWTW GOLFERX CUP CUP The Poly golf squad, under Coach Joe Fisher, completed a highly successful season by winning the M.S.A. championship. In addition, they won all but one of their dual matches throughout the season. The linksmen opened the season with a 10-2 victory over Loyola, leading the team were Frank Highland, Paul Finck, and Pete Leavy. ln the second match of the season, the team squeezed by Calvert Hall, 7-5, when Highland sank a birdie putt on the eighteenth hole to take his match and provide the margin of victory. Poly continued its victory skein by edging City by a score of 7-5. Ron Rites and Bob Trimble came through with fine rounds to win the match for Poly. The putters really found themselves in the following match when they trounced Towson Catholic to the tune of 10243-IMZ. Finck, High land, and Trimble each won 3-0 over their opponents. By the time the big match for the M.S.A. championship came, the team was at full strength, evidenced by the fact that they took the championship with a near record score of 331. The winning team was composed of Highland, 77, Trimble, 76, Finck, 845 and Rites, 95. Rites, incidentally, shot much better golf throughout the year, but he ran into some bad luck in this match. Highland, Trimble, and Finck qualified for the individual championship. Trimble reached the semi-finals but, even though he shot sub-par golf, was beaten by one stroke. 61 c er arx, . Leavy, W.

Tech's overall record boasted an outstanding 16 wins against one defeat, This only de- feat suffered by the Poly nine came at the hands of a fighting Calvert Hall team, who in Poly's initial game of the season swamped them with a no-hit, no-run tilt. Poly then bounced back in good form to take the remaining 9 league games and the league championship. Aided by brilliant pitching and good coaching, Poly obtained its first crown since the 1949 season, thus end- ing Mt. St. Joe's four year championship streak. In each and every game of the season outstanding pitching and agile fielding were executed by the Poly diamondmen. Although the individual ability of the players helped the squad in gaining the championship, it would not have done as well without the endeavours and decisions of the brilliant coaching of Bob Lumsden. Coach Lumsden noted that on a team such as this years it was the all-around ability of the boys in every phase that produced such good results. It was a team with good speed and well balanced hitting , bragged coach Lumsden. As our outstanding double play duo there was Bucky Foote and Bob Silbersack - brilliant both afield and at the plate. Dick Lepson adequately filled the third base position with his fine fielding and ac- curate throwing. He also ranked among the leaders 1 After checking his swing Poly batsman clouts next pitch.

The first base sack was steadily occupied by Scharf, who had a mediocre season. The outfield, lead by Lee Frazier and John Brauer, was held in high regard by other schools for its tremendous power, ability to handle the ball, and speed in ground covering. The list of batterymen, which constituted the best pitching staff in the league, included Sonny Travis, Howie Becraft, and Lee Frazier. Travis, using a combination of his fine curve pitch, his baffling knuckle-ball, and a good fast ball, pitched a no-hitter and many low hit games while becoming the outstand- ing hurler for Tech. He consistently struck out be- tween l0 and I5 batters in each of his games. Although Travis saw more action than the others, Howie Becraft turned in a no-hitter against Mervo-Tech as Poly blank- ed them l-0. The behind-the-plate catching was done by Carl Scheffel, who always turned in a colorful per- formance, and Bill Henderson. Scheffel, with his good arm, quick thinking, and power hitting at the plate saw more action and was regarded as the best catcher in the city. When the all-star team was announced, Sheffel headed a list of four Poly players who made the first nine. His teammates that made the squad were in the personages of Lee Frazier, Bob Silbersack, and Sonny Travis. The '54 edition of the baseball team was a true re- presentation of Poly's caliber of sports.

STUDENT AD IXURY BUARD The Student Advisory Board, in which is vested the legi-slative power of the student government, is composed of fifteen representatives of the junior and senior classes. The members are elected by the Student Council, but the President and Vice-President are elected by the entire student body. In addition to estab- lishing school rules and formulating school policies, the members of the S.A.B. have the authority to apprehend violators and issue them a summons to court. This year the S.A.B. accomplished a great deal of work in the interest of the school. In addition to the usual problems, such as traffic in the corridors, be- havior in the cafeteria, etc., the Board also took charge of Poly-City Week, discus- sed the advantages of a driver education course, took an active part in the Inter- High-School Council, and, most important, revised the constitution. The executive branch of the student government, the Student Council, is composed of two representatives from each section. Although it is the responsi- bility of the Student Council to enforce school rules, only the members of the S.A.B. have the authority to issue a summons. 64 Es .gm i... -,,, ...NM ...MQW ,gba -...L-5 ri i ...,.,. ., e 'X iff A' at A -..,v'.

Its members, consisting of eight representatives of the junior and senior classes, try the cases brought before them and decide upon suitable punishment for those found guilty. The punishments meted out include writing compositions about the misde- 4' meanor, polishing trophies, and having priviieges taken away. The objective is not to punish but to teach the offender a lesson so as to prevent any further trouble. The Student Court has worked in close co- operation with the S.A.B. this year, thus effecting an efficient student government. Standing, L. to R.: D. Frieshtat, J. Hammond, R. Cohen.

Its members are elected on a basis of scholarship, only the top twelve per cent of each class being eligible, and on a basis of participation in school activities. Its members perform such outstanding activities as maintaining the Lost and Found and selling savings stamps. Every Christmas, the Honor Society collects money and then buys gifts for the children at Kernan's Hospital. In the spring, the members of the Honor Society conduct coach classes to prepare their fellow students for re-exams. Classes are held after school every day for a month and have come to be recognized as an important feature in the school year. X r I iixfg I d it 3 I i ' QQ Seated, L. to R.: R. Crutchfield, G.
