Here is the product of months of hard work, your 1958 Technician! We of the yearbook staff have given our all to bring to you the best book our resources and talents can pro- duce. Under the vigilant eye of Dr. Hasenfus, we have labored and worried as the senior year slowly drifted by, a year your staff could not enjoy to the fullest as long as the yearbook was unfinished. It’s your book, boys; you have made it possible by your activities at Technical High. We sincerely hope you will enjoy it and keep it as a most cherished possession in the years to come. Here, you will find the story of Tech as it is, good features and bad, old building, annex, and all. Here, too, are the teachers you have had, grown to know, and appreciate. They are the ones who have helped you, each in his own characteristic way, in the belief that some day you will take your proper place in society. Open this book, then, and read of your ac- complishments with pride. Its your book; en- joy it. Oy.

As I write, there are two satellites circling the earth. As you read, there will un- doubtedly be many more. These man-made moons are but the forerunners of great things to come. They may well be the har- bingers of the Space Age. This year, too, is seeing changes at Technical High School. With a new course of study and a more select student body, with the consequent rise in scholastic standards, we have made strides. We now look forward with great anticipation to our new build- ing. It is our hope that with a modern building will come recog- nition of our school as the great institution that it is. To you, member of the Class of 1958, I extend my best wishes. May your goal be a worthy one and may God give you the strength and the will to attain it. Your D)ieecdlmastor Whaler J eran baat Roldan honared eau! respected Py dier: of the facully......- GENERAL VINCENT P. BREEN We are proud to dedicate the 1958 Technician to General Vincent P. Breen, heroic soldier, honored and respected member of the faculty of Boston Technical High School for the past thirty years. During this period, he has been known as the In- structor in Military Drill. Yet, few are aware that hiding under the general's commanding exterior there is a soul of humility for General Breen’s record in the U.S. Army is one of glory and honor. He bears many battle scars — constant reminders of war and its horrors. For outstanding bravery in the First World War during the battle of Bois Belleau, he was promoted on the field to the rank of captain, a highly unusual procedure. During this encounter, he was wounded twice in one day — at 11:30 and again at 4:30. Still, without regard for his personal suffering, he courageously continued to lead his men this same day into furious battle. For this he was later awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. His heroic career through two world wars cul- minated in the honored rank of general. If and when his army life is mentioned, he modestly refers to the bravery of his war buddies. Mr. Holland is one of his best friends and had a brother under his command in the First World War and tells us that of the 26,000 men for which he was responsible, none was more courageous than the general. It’s a surprising contrast between the thanks we expect for our small deeds and the reserve of a man who risked his life many times for his country. General Breen, with this dedication we give you our very best wishes for continued good health and the hope that all of us may acquire your character and virtues. We salute you, Gen- eral Vincent P Ben! M, aS eons cove ppl cove Hearttelt Thanks..... To the Class of 1958: May I extend my sincere and heart-felt thanks to you for dedicating your yearbook to me. As recipient of this signal honor I am happy and pleased. As this yearboo k reminds you of the many fine chapters of your school life at our school, so this honor will serve as an in- spiration to me for many years to come. May your future be just as inspiring. Sincerely, Uincent P WSpere GENERAL, U.S. ARMY (Ret.) © S S 3 S N = beg Fat Wess g yf x Ses ees S = rs SS § § S s 3 = 3 Ss , : GUNNAR MUNNICK EDWARD J.

To acquire complete secrecy from Latin School scientists, who at the time had successfully completed project “KINTUPS,” we strategically established our center of operations in the Tower. Early June 35 we climbed into the machine, set the controls for 75 B.C. and settled back for the takeoff. The only sensation was a slight oscillation from the chloroplatinic agitator which was sympathetically modulating with the parasitic pyrexiumtuborg. Ed yelled, “Something is wrong; the chloroplatinic agitator shouldn’t be modulating sympathetically with the parasitic pyrexiumtuborg.” I replied, HUH!” Simultaneously, an alarm sounded announcing our arrival. Due to a slight miscalculation caused by our failure to grasp Mr. Holland’s mathematics, we arrived not in the past but in the future. Looking around, we saw that we had landed in a large field or park. Then we saw it .. . across the field was a gigantic structure, surrounded by a swimming pool, football field, and a tennis court. Slowly approaching the building, Ed noticed the letters B.T.H.S. emblazoned over the front door. Further observa- tions revealed a cornerstone inscribed “Gift of Class of ’58.” Stepping onto one of the many moving sidewalks, we headed in the direction of the city’s business section. Hopping off at Izzy Ort’s, we “dug” some cool sounds emanating from John Masone’s combo, consisting of John on the sax, “Ed” Abrahms beating the pots, “Tony” Seluta bleeding the trumpet, and “Jim” McBurnie wailing up a storm on the bass. At the end of John’s version of “One O'Clock Jump,” Rev. Lovett entered with brother “Purl” McLaughlin to take up the weekly collection for the $.P.C.A. To entice a more generous contribution from all, they were accompanied by “Dick” Fabiano, James (Anastasia) Gus- ciewicz, John Baginski, “Dick” Filosa, “Al” Krisciunas, and “Ernie” Hill. After successfully completing their mission, Rev. Lovett and his accomplices departed. Still and Simone, who were contract men at Ort’s, reentered after having success- fully evaded the weekly collection. Glancing into the back room, we noticed “Jerry” Siegal, “Joe” Padula, “Joe” Crowley, “Ed” Dorion, and “Dave” Sawyer engrossed in a game of Crazy Eights. Off to one side, we recognized Joe Silva, John Repici and Jim White shooting the breeze. Just then the bouncer, Ed Norton, yelled, “Clear out! It’s a raid.” Through the front door burst Lieutenant McIntyre and Sergeant “Dan” McClusky, followed by patrolmen Alfonso Basile, Joe Bogan, Eddie Oliveri, “Sonny” Lytle, and “Bob” Gaura. Ducking out of Ort’s, we headed toward Washington Street. Ed noticed “Steve” Tocman slicing pastromi in the window of a delicatessen. He and his cousin “Ed” were “balony” artists. The power output of our machine began to weaken and as it did, we reluc- tantly headed back to the field. Crossing Washington Street, “Ed” picked up a discarded newspaper to read the results of the state election. We were happy to see that “Joe” Zimbone, “Lou” Isaacs and “Bernie” Cassell had been elected pound keeper, dog catcher, and street cleaner respectively. Crossing the Common, we heard the music of the Salvation Army Band. As they moved nearer, we recognized John McGowan playing the sax, Early the trumpet and Lyons the trombone. Finally we reached the field where our adventures began. After taking a last look at this world of wonder, we activated the machine and returned to 1958 to tell you of these events.

(ahem) Boston Technical High School, trudged wearily towards our new home. Suddenly the still of the morning air was broken by the lilting strains of a band. The. Tech jazz band! It was welcoming the new freshmen. Our eyes clouded with sentimental tears as we stood at attention and looked straight ahead at the belt buckles of the awesome seniors. We walked into the building, through austere, labyrinthian hallways of our new home’ to luxuriously furnished class- rooms and many thoughts passed through our puny minds. How lucky we were! Had not the seniors given us a cut rate on tickets of admission to the sixth-floor swimming pool? Even if it was closed, this was only temporary, they told us, until repairs were made. Did we not have a marvelous muscle-building course, if you want to call climbing five flights of stairs a muscle-building course? After a while, we got used to the trembling walls and heaving floors when the hungry herd thundered daily to the lunchroom. One of the more enjoyable features of our program this first year was the sixteen-odd periods of shop every week. It was during these that we designed and built—intricate wood shavings. Also, during this first year we came to know some of our teachers quite well. One who made a lasting impression was Mr. Holland. If you got in trouble dur- ing the year-WATCH OUT! DANGER AHEAD! Boys who were unfortunate enough to have one of his pointed lectures directed their way were planning, before he finished, on a new school location. However, we soon learned to ad- mire and respect him because we found by going half way, he would go all the way for us. Another fine faculty member who made a lasting impression on us was Mr. Daly, on the fifth floor. When you read this, he will have entered his thirty-sixth year at Tech! Though he aspired to none of it, he deserved our ad- miration and praise. He was one of our really fine pedagogues. Our second year we were given an opportunity to join one of the many fine school clubs. Those interested in things literary had a chance to have their writings dissected by Mr. Resnick. If one preferred viewing the world through a peep-hole, there was the camera club under the guidance of Mr. Webster, (no relation to you know who). In addition, there were football, baseball, soccer, and track (you “gotta” sweat) teams. These and many other activities help to fill out the year. When we had learned the art of slouching in leather upholstered chairs, we were transferred en masse to “Movieland U.S.A.,” better known as the Annex. Here we spent the remainder of our year between premieres and study periods. So ended the first frantic year at Boston Technical High School. After a carefree summer vacation, we arrived back at our luxurious, Built by Biltmore Castle located on the left bank of the Charles River. Here the faculty, if it wished, could live in the fabulous comfort of renowned pent-house tower apartments. The majority declined this offer, however, fearing such luxury might spoil them for more conventional after-school living. “Clang! Clang! CLANG!” Familiar sounds to a Tech scholar. Yes, this was the year we met Mr. Plumb, forge instructor, guardian of the tongs, defender of the anvil, and advocate of hard work. It was in his classes that we learned to hammer out useful gadgetry such as a three-link chain, a metal hoop, a scrateh- awl, and other domestic items. I’m sure everyone remembers a baptism of fire when we were first shown the rudiments of welding and were showered with a fall-out of glowing sparks. In the words of the illustrious Mr. Plumb, “What are you afraid of? The sparks won't burn.” HA! My hands got so that I could hear the rise and fall of the tide within the blisters. Three months later, we had our lungs veneered in the pattern-making shops. Though pattern shop was im- measurably cleaner than the forge, we learned never, but never, to wear black. In this fascinating location, we were taught the rudiments of making patterns that go into the manufacture of castings. Novices though we were, we still man- aged to produce some very interesting objets d’art, although most of them were extra-curricular. 44 Of course we had-an array of required subjects such as math, French, Eng- lish, history, drill, etc. However, I can think of nothing particularly humorous about these subjects so I will not try to exploit them. Your own memory will do this for you. Whew! The first half of the year was really rough. With credit to the fore- thought of our city administrators, we again went to our exclusive, ultra-modern country club in Dorchester. Located on a twenty-thousand acre estate, and inter- nationally known for its fine food and facilities, it had a policy that allowed admis- sion only to fully qualified Tech scholars. Some of the facilities it had were an eighteen-hole golf course, a polo field, hockey rink, a rifle range, and a steam heated swimming pool. We moved in after the Christmas vacation. The curricu- lum called for a few hours of mental exercise, after which we eagerly scanned the movie lineup for the day. If we preferred, there was ample time at the end of the day to work out trifling home lessons, that is, if we got out early. It was in this haven of scholastic happiness that we wended our way through the balance of the sophomore year. After a less carefree and restful summer at our country estates, we arrived back at school for the beginning of the junior year. You will remember we had our first taste of physics and machine-shop. Under the supervision of great sci- entific and mechanical minds, we became better acquainted with the complexities around us. Our “labs” were equipped with the finest precision instruments that rubles could buy. Nothing was too good! In fact, nothing was good enough. We did have our giant cyclotron next door. Who can forget the comfort of our leather upholstered chairs and mahogany desks? I’m sure we were impressed with the complex maze of superscientific, cus- tom-made equipment in our machine shops. Surely not more than a year old (Plutonian year), these lathes and drills and grease became familiar friends. Here we learned to make such useful items as a screw driver, a “C” clamp, and a jack. This was the time when we learned our course of study was obsolete. Familiar was, “Boys, next year our course will be better than ever,” and for the rest of our high school career this phrase haunted us. It was during these days we became aware of College Board Examinations, and particularly a key word pounded into our memories, “read, Read, and READ!” After reading our way through another summer, we returned to the practical reality of school. This was the year when our conscience became aware of our scholastic achievement through the omnipresent Mr. Dailey. Being our advisor, he advised us to work or else and, oh yes, to “READ.” Frequently, we saw Mr. O'Brien, the guidance counselor who made us aware that we were no longer mere boys—but men! ! Well, men, this was the year we were introduced to chemistry. So, you thought physics was tough? Our “labs” contained the finest of equipment. Test tubes. Not just ordinary test tubes mind you, but Tech test tubes! Money seemed to be no object this year! Our leaders planned many activi- ties and encouraged us to spend as much as could be squeezed from our tight fists. Pictures, the school fund, our prom, and the yearbook claimed our bank- rolls. We could afford it, so who cared? WE DID! But why? We held our final class election and elected such worthy personalities as Joe Zimbone, President; Louis Isaacs, Vice-President; Mike MclIsaacs, Treasurer; John Early, Secretary; and Bernie Cassell for our Student Representative. If it were not for our fine faculty, we would never have had such a fine faculty—huh? When the Russians launched Sputnick, the Tech boys took it in stride. After a brief planning period with department heads, we got our own project under way. The Russians are still wondering where the tower in Red Square originated. The year drew to a close. There was the usual flurry of last-minute prepara- tions. Marks to be cleared, speeches to be prepared, and inevitable loose ends to be assembled. At long last, we found ourselves seated in a large, unfamiliar auditorium. Our parents as part of the audience beamed. A speaker went to the microphone and we heard, “Mr. Chairman, Mr. Durnan, members of the See and new graduates of Boston Technical High School”... .Gulp! It was over Written by Joseph Conway and Anthony Seluta 45 Class Will We, the students of the graduating class of 1958, still of sound mind and in full possession of all our faculties, make the following bequests to the teachers who have worked hard to push us out into the cruel world armed with a diploma.

Under Mr. Ralph Rosenthal’s supervision the Art Club produces numerous artistic designs for The Arti- san and posters for city-wide contests in which many Technical boys take top prizes. The Art Club is also a good starting point for boys who wish to succeed in the world of art. Many of our graduates enroll in art schools later because of the incentive they receive in this activity. The Artisan is now in its fiftieth year of publica- tion. This fine magazine is published by the students themselves, who write the many fine short stories, poems, and reports on school activities and sports which appear in the three yearly issues. Working on this publication gives students a valuable chance to develop their literary talents along with learning how a magazine is produced. The magazine is under the expert direction of Mr. Samuel Resnick as literary advisor, Mr. Ralph Rosenthal as art advisor, and Mr. William Powers as business advisor. The Artisan has achieved rec- ognition from many sources. It is especially proud of numerous first-place awards granted by the Colum- bia Scholastic Press Association.

Technical’s Band meets each Friday in the Drill Hall to prepare for the Schoolboy Parade and Prize Drill. The musicians, some of the best in the city, work hard to learn the difficult maneuvers and famous marches for Prize Drill. Because of this hard work, Tech High Bands have won many awards. Our capable director is Mr. Houlihan, Assistant Director of Music in the Boston Public Schools. He give s a great deal of his time to directing our band for the school’s assemblies. Under his leadership, we hope to take top honors in both Prize Drill and the Schoolboy Parade. TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL In years past, Technical High has captured many military prizes for the glory of the school. This year's splendid group of drill officers is striving to prepare companies for rigorous competition with other schools in the annual Schoolboy Parade, and it is the hope of every cadet to be among the first place units. Our drill instructor is still Brigadier General Vincent P. Breen, holder of the Distinguished Service Cross, the Purple Heart, and many other decorations. General Breen has instructed boys in drill at Techni- cal for thirty years. It is under his encouragement that the cadet officers are now doing a splendid job as usual in leading their companies.

The Camera Club is one of our most useful or- ganizations and has for years been under the capable direction of Mr. Harry Webster. It meets twice a week to discuss developments in photography and the fine art of taking pictures. Club members are ‘urged to submit their own photographs and equipment so that these may be discussed by the class as to their good and bad qualities. Mr. Webster is a great source of help to the pho- tographic hobbyist for he has a thorough knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of the different types of equipment. His advice and wisdom has helped many a boy make a wise start in a very practi- cal hobby. The Pottery Club, under the excellent supervision of Mr. Ralph Rosenthal, has grown to be one of the most important clubs in the school. In this activity, boys gain experience by making objects of their own creation in mosaics and ceramic sculpture. They also learn the secrets of moulding clay, the making of glaze, and of the construction of mosaics. Through his abilities, Mr. Rosenthal has created a very interest- ing and worthwhile club.

Next year, the team w ill be filled with more ex- perienced players and should be even stronger than it is now. Although it has lost many of its best players, the chess team still poses a threat to all schools in the league. The Civil Air Patrol Club is composed of boys who show a marked interest in all subjects dealing with aviation. These subjects range from navigation to “why” the airplane flies. The club meets on Fri- days in Room E-3 under the supervision of Mr. Steven A. Ricci, who always interjects useful bits of informa- tion dealing with aviation. The primary objects of Civil Air Patrol is to stim- ulate air-mindedness in America’s youth, and to in- still in tomorrow’s generation a basic knowledge of aviation in the world around us. The C.A.P. Club is doing a fine job in pursuing the basic goal of Civil Air Patrol. a ar aoe a ag SE Cuil Ab P aol: Top Row: Hyman, McBirney, McLaughlin, Za- waki, Aiello, McCabe, Krisciunas, Corsetti, Caruso.

Class Day is one of the finest Senior Class tradi- tions at Technical High. It is a day to remember with fond memories as we go through life. Under the direction of Mr. James Holland, this year’s committee met several weeks previous to, Class Day to formulate the plans which made this one of the most memorable occasions in our school lives. Th e program began in the Assembly Hall with the reading of the Class Will, the Class History, the Class Prophecy, and “Try to Remember.” It was all in good fun and we had many a chuckle. An all- morning program followed to give everyone a wonder- time as we gathered together as a class for the last time. The Crafts Club is one of the new organizations at Technical High. As the name implies, it is intended to give boys without shop a chance to develop their woodworking abilities. Their activities consist of mending articles brought from home and constructing their own indi- vidual projects. The club, now in its second year, is under the guidance of Mr. William Gable who keeps a sharp watch on the boys so that everything will run smoothly.

Although drafting is a re- quired subject here, this club is very popular among Tech students who wish to augment the knowledge they receive in their regular drafting classes. Drafting has always been a very important sub- ject at Tech, and many of our alumni go on to be- come draftsmen, technicians, and engineers. Since this Drafting Standards Club goes far beyond the or- dinary instruction given, it has proved itself to be a great boon to Technical students and alumni. | The corps has done exceptionally well in the past and expects to do even better this year. An outstand- ing organization, it has helped to make Technical High School proud of its musical units. Under Mr. Dickey’s expert instruction, the drum- mers work hard during Friday’s activity period to per- fect their beats. At the same time, the buglers war- ble an imitation of Mr. Young’s marvelous music. On Wednesdays, both segments combine to prac- tice their marching and work to make the corps the best-sounding one in the city. Last year the Tech corps took third place in the school-boy parade, losing to English and Latin only by a very small margin. It is felt that this May we will, perhaps, be able to convince the judges that Tech really deserves top award.

The current news topic “Is Russia Win- ning the Cold War,” was discussed in our first forum and it brought forth some very interesting issues. Barton Kramer, Anthony Seluta, William Lytle, and Joseph Conway participated in this event. All boys taking part in these forums receive valu- able training in public speaking. On Friday evening, December 6, our annual Buff and Blue Harvest Dance was held at Boston College Alumni Hall. We hoped the happy occasion would be a huge success and it was! Dance music was furnished by Dick Tellier’s Band, and refreshments were served in a beautiful setting on the lower floor. Credit for the wonderful success of our dance goes to the committee members who, under the guid- ance of Mr. Holland, earnestly endeavored to make the evening as enjoyable as it really was. The setting was perfect, the music enchanting, and we were all decked out in our Sunday best. Our dates were gorgeous! One of our teachers was most pointed when he said, “How did you rate them?” D4 beyivuf ence Back Row: McCabe, Krisciunas, Boudreau, White, Langlan, Kramer, Schultz, Sawyer, Kickham.

Helping during their free periods, they have made it possible for us to enjoy good books without the bother of going to an outside library. We give our sincerest thanks to John Sweeney, Barry Andelman, Francis McCabe, Perley McLaugh- lin and Fred Jennings who have given up much of their time, receiving only personal satisfaction as a reward for their efforts. Although our lunchroom is well organized and runs as smoothly as a well-oiled machine, without the Lunch Patrol it would be in a chaotic state during the lunch period. This Patrol is composed of boys who relinquish their time to be of real service to the school. These boys work hard and diligently to make the lunch period enjoyable and not a time of disorder and confusion. Credit also goes to Mr. Plumb for doing an excellent job in organizing and directing this hard- working group. lbh P biel Top Row: Kleinot, Leonavicius, Krisciunas, Kra- mer, DeWan, Hyman, Donovan, Dom- enicucci.

Mr. Munnick, a yachting enthusiast himself, guides his group to the highest degree of efficiency in making models. In the spring, several boys are selected to enter the Charles River Basin Model Yachters’ Competition and some have beco me top winners in this city-wide con- test. The Model Auto Club, conducted by Mr. Victor Campbell, has always earned many high awards in the city, the state, and even the national competition of the Fisher Body Contest. This statement can be verified by an inspection of the many models and trophies in our trophy case. Some of the boys who have won awards in years past are Anthony Vatalaro, a first prize winner in state competition; James Toller, first prize winner in both junior and senior divisions in the Regional com- penton, and J. Robert McLaughlin, winner of an onorable mention last year. There can be no doubt that Technical will again come through with flying colors when this year’s results are announced.

It is composed of a very select group of students who have shown outstanding qualities of character, leadership, service, and scholarship. The records of the junior and senior classes were examined carefully by a committee composed of Mr. Dailey, Mr. Gib- bons, Mr. Van Ham, and Mr. Bowes who finally se- lected this year’s group of students worthy of admis- sion to membership. When these boys take their places in life after graduation, great accomplishments can be expected from them, for they represent Technical High at its best.

This year, a group of musicians from the orchestra formed the Tech Dixieland Band , something new in the Boston School System. They entertained us royal- ly at the Christmas Assembly.

One of the more important activities, the Pre- Driving Club, does much to instruct Technical High students in correct driving habits. Although, there is no actual driving practice, the mere teaching of the safe fundamentals goes far in making our boys safer and more courteous drivers. This year a new instructor, Mr. Edward Foley, was appointed for this class and he has done a fine job in teaching the boys the basic principles of good driving. With the ever-increasing number of automobiles on the highways, it is very important to have our young drivers become as well acquainted as possible with the rules of the road. The Pre-Driving Club does its part well in making the boys familiar with these rules and in improving teen-age driving habits. a ‘% Fi ENNIS PY ERE TARR. ‘. ee ae om ts This year, the Science Club was under the di- rection of Mr. Arnold Lamkin for the first time. Un- der his adequate supervision, the boys planned and constructed their projects for the Science Fair held in April. Technical High always does very well in the city-wide fair at the Latin School and usually wins top honors in the State Science Fair held at M.LT.

Early in the year, the thoughts of every senior turn to that forth- coming magical evening in the spring when we gather at beautiful Longwood Towers to meet our classmates and their lovely girl friends. The music is supplied by one of Boston’s finest orchestras and contributes to the elegant atmosphere, making the evening seem too short. This event lives forever in our hearts as the lilting music, magnificent surroundings, and congenial company combine to give us enchanted hours of pleasure. An outstanding organization at Technical is our Student Council. It was formed forty-seven years ago to discuss its problems and new ideas pertaining to the efficient operation of Mechanic Arts High School. The council is composed of one student from each division and one representative from each ma- jor activity. This group has proved itself invaluable in the operation of our school. The Council is very ably directed by Mr. John Bowes, the Faculty Advisor, who has generously vol- unteered much of his free time to the task of setting up and advising the Council members. ae eae — ; Wal = = 3 a: “ae, +} | Ay Siby: Gal.

T Service is a most important organization in our school. The patrol is composed of boys who work during their lunch periods to be of service to the school. It is organized and supervised by Mr. Brokvist who sees that the boys are on their toes at all times. The duties of the patrol include greeting and helping visitors, aiding in routine duties about the school, and performing many other important functions that good school management requires. This activity is now in its second year and is com- posed of conscientious students who give up much of their free time before and after school to practice and perfect the many intricate maneuvers which compose the team’s dazzling routine. The excellent showing of last year caused this year’s members to be issued much new equipment. The boys are instructed by the very capable Mr. John O’Bryant who unselfishly comes in early every morning to teach them new maneuvers and to perfect the old ones. Mr. O’Bryant is well-suited for his task, because at one time he was a member of a cham- pionship-team while in the service. Thel!

Football On Sept. 27, under the lights at White Sta- dium, Tech defeated Roslindale, 9-0, in the Jam- boree. The team’s superb spirit made up for its lack of experience. Our second game was against an excellent Dorchester team. Tech came from behind to win, 13-6, in a very close contest. On October 11, Tech played its third game, against B.C. High. At full strength, Tech over- Poaerer its opponent, 20-0. All scoring was ae in the first half. The team performed very well. During October there was a flu epidemic in Massachusetts. Several college and high school teams were hurt by the disease. Boston Tech was no exception, but despite the handicap, our boys carried on and defeated a powerful East Boston team, 12-0. School spirit is a wonderful thing to possess, providing, as it does, that extra desire to win. Going into the Latin game we had a winning streak of ten straight games. Because our last defeat had come at the hands of Latin the year before, our thirst for revenge was overwhelming. Technical was rated the underdog. School sup- port was shown by a rally in the assembly hall. Finally, the big day came and the teams surged onto the field before the largest crowd of the season. Tech dominated the first half by a score of 13-0. Latin came back strong and scored twelve points in the second half. The Tech line held. The final score, 13-12, was the big news of our season. Tech continued its winning streak by a vic- tory over Roxbury Memorial, 31-6, and then the roof fell in. Amid torrential rain, a strong Eng- lish team upset Tech, 20-0. A powerful Sou Boston team, out played Tech by the humiliating score of 40-0. In our last game, Boston Trade, our perennial rival, won by a score of 34-13. Tech finished a strong third in the City League with a 5-3 record. Congratulations to Coach John Morris, his staff and to all the mem- bers of the squad for a good performance dur- ing the whole season.

Although it is not always possible to have a winning team, our boys deserve credit for the courage and good-sportsmanship displayed at all times. Luck was against us for if three games lost by only one run had been in our favor, the team would have had a .000 average. In the early part of the season, the defense lagged. In spite of eleven hits by the Technicians, Memorial won, 6-5. Against Latin, Ralph Matacunas was superb at the plate, extending his hitting streak to six in a row, but Tech bowed, 5-2. Dorchester’s hopes for the State Tourney were dimmed when Tech led by two pe in the fifth inning, but then our opponents collected three unearned runs Fleming hurled the Buff and Blue to its first win, against Trade, 10-4, behind doubles by “Chet” Fucillo, Dan Sullivan, and Dick Peterson. New confidence en- abled Fucillo to strike out seven, and Sullivan to blast a home-run against B.C. High but the Eaglets came out on top, 7-4. Jack Nee was sent against Latin and this time the Technicians pounded out fourteen hits and eleven runs as the Buff and Blue emerged victorious. Dorchester’s Charlie Bunker, probably the best pitcher in the city, led the Red and Black to a 5-2 win over Tech; however, a bright note in the contest was Tommy Quinn’s triple. The Technicians reversed the previous score against Memorial by winning 6-5, behind the fine pitching of Fran Walsh and a hitting splurge by our boys. In the final game of the season, Tech again defeated Trade, this time 5-1. Fucillo was the standout, striking out seven and collecting a pair of hits him- self amidst another hitting barrage by the Technicians. Our fine catcher, Dan Sullivan, was elected to the Boston All-Star team, and we believe that Henry Fucillo, with his lusty .553 batting average and fine pitching, also deserved this recognition. Good luck to Coach McGrath, the 1958 squad, and to Co-captains Quinn and Fleming. 82 The Bowling League, sponsored by the Student Council, is one of the more popular institutions at Technical High. Its members meet weekly at the Huntington 55 Alleys to compete with one another. Mr. John Bowes, who serves as the league's advisor, does a fine job in the organization of the individual teams and in keeping a close watch on the smooth operation of the league itself. At the close of the season, awards are made to the bowler with the highest three-string total and to the championship team as well. Competition is keen in the league, and the physical exercise it affords many boys unable to compete on school teams in other sports makes this activity very worthwhile.

In the first game under its new coach, Mr. Edward Grant, our Tech quintet lost a hard-fought game to Latin. Phil Gallagher’s 22 points and Lou Isaac's great defense job in holding dangerous John Haynes to only two points went to no avail as a better-coordinated Purple team won out, 58-46. In its second outing, Tech was edged in the last minute, 65-62, by B.C. High. Three Technicians hit in the double figures, Mockus 16, Towner 14, and Murphy 12. If a few of the breaks had come our way, the result could very easily have Back Row: Coach Grant, Winston, Ward, been reversed. The Buff and Blue dropped its third straight, this Pucino, Dodge, Gorin, Tilley, Con- time to Roxbury Memorial, 75-61. We put up a valiant fight but nors, Kelly, Samawich, Galeota. could not overcome an early lead built up by the Printers. Front Row: Moy, Middleton, Mockus, Victory smiled on us the first time when we defeated Dorchest- downer Mc irney aalsaacs Calla; er, 68-58. With Mockus and Towner controlling the backboards, the BES Eee Buff and Blue attack finally jelled. Towner’s 14 points in the sec- ond half kept Tech in the game until the team as a unit got rolling. We made it two straight when we defeated English, 54-51. Led by the all-round play of Towner and Mockus, Tech took a hard- fought game. A third consecutive victory was enjoyed over Trade, 55-48, as we evened our won-lost record. Again Val Mockus’ re- bounding and sharpshooting proved decisive. Ahead by but five points at half time, Tech opened a 14 point lead which we held un- til Coach Grant put subs into the game, the subs winning finally by a seven-point spread. Four losses followed. Latin defeated our lads, 70-62, despite all three, Gallagher, Towner, and Mockus hitting for double figures. A second defeat came, when Memorial won, 69-53. Although Gal- lagher with 15 points, Mockus with 13, McBirney with 11, and Towner with 10, were stars, the game was lost at the foul line as B. | f Wd Tech hit only 15 times while the Printers were scoring 25. A sud- askelba den wave of injuries that left but seven men in playing condition so hampered our club that Dorchest er was able to pin an 82-60 defeat on our team. B.C. High made it four defeats in a row when our still shorthanded team put on a real fight against a healthier Eaglet team. We returned to the win column as we upset English, 46-42. Although still plagued with injuries, the Buff and Blue dominated the game throughout, building up a quick lead that it never relin- Piha: We then defeated Trade, 50-41. Holding an eight point lead at the end of the first period Tech was never seriously threat- ened. Mockus was high scorer with 17 points followed by Galla- gher, and Towner, who collected 11 and 10 points respectively. Congratulations to Coach Grant and his squad for a job well done the hard way.

Approximately seventy-five boys enjoyed the sport for some four weeks, and from these, ‘mostly novices, a well-balanced brace of crews will be formed as a nu- cleus for the 1958 spring outing. No attempt was made to select the best. Each boy had equal opportunity to row daily. In the spring, therefore, boys OSs; will be better prepared to compete for places on the varsity and junior varsity crews. t . | if le a al ca fe Again this fall, as it has been so often in the past, Tech’s cross country team was one of the fastest in the city. The sea- son’s climax was a well-earned victory in the City Meet, as our runners, captained by John Kent, edged out all competition. In the first meet, held on October second, Tech defeated Latin and Dorchester easily, with K ent, Duane, Greene, Turner, and Lieberman providing the punch. The meet on October eleventh came next, and with it “Asian Flu” which plagued our team as well as the other teams for the remainder of the season. In spite of this, Tech defeated B.C. pen and Latin as Bob Rehfield won the race for the Buff and Blue. In the City Meet, English, a previous winner, was the fa- vorite. Our boys turned the tables, however, edging the Blue and Blue, 50-49. Placing third, fourth, and tenth were Rehfield, Kent, and Duane in that order. Despite his inexperience as a run- ner, Fred Waht, a senior, deserves credit for his valuable efforts in this meet and in others. On October 25, the Regimental Meet was held. Still har- assed by the flu, our team took its first defeat of the season by bowing to English, 40-31. Kent, Duane, and Rehfield, our star runners all year long, contributed to a competitive showing by placing fourth, fifth, and eighth. Although the absence of Duane and Rehfield in the State Meet, held on November second, definitely hurt our chances, Tech placed ninth out of the seventeen schools competing. Next year, with Bob Rehfield as captain, a potent team re- turns with Lieberman, Turner, and Bushlow as top dogs. Con- gratulations to Coach Carey and the boys for a splendid season!

The Golf Team had a fair season last year. Vic- tories were registered over South Boston, Dorchester, and Memorial. Losses were recorded to Hyde Park, English, Latin, and Trade. Capt. Tom Henshon, Dav- id Powell, Harry Saunders, and Ronald Haley played in all the matches. Henshon finished well up in the City Tournament to bring some consolation to Tech. The nucleus of next year’s team will be Larry Costello, Frank White, Bill McMahon, Bill Sawyer, Fred Aiton, and Tom Alizio. In addition, a promising crop of sophomores and freshmen should help to boost our stock. All caddies should make a beeline to Room 50 where they will be welcomed by Mr. Golden.

Goals were registered by Co-Captain McGowan, Peterson and Martell. The second game, thanks to the fine net tending of goalie Silva, provided more action as Tech downed Latin, 3-1. The next week Tech, sparked by Burke’s five assists and a hat trick by McCarthy, completely routed Dorchester, 8-0. Next, English was defeated, 4-0, Trade 6-1 in a game highlighted by Pa- of lermo’s three goals in the first period, and then Latin, 1-0, which practically . ochey clinched the title. The pucksters then went on to defeat English 5-0, to romp over Memorial 10-0, a victory which included a hat trick by center Burke, to beat Dorchester 9-0, with McCarthy repeating the hat trick, and then to gain a final victory over Trade by a score of 2-0. After winning the City Title, Tech proceeded to play in the Metropolitan Tourney for the state championship. In the first round we defeated a fine Gloucester sextet, 4-2, Burke tallied twice and Peterson and McGowan contribut- ed one each. Here again Silva displayed his outstanding talents. By defeating Gloucester, our quintet qualified for the quarter-finals and then after putting uv a stubborn battle with a sharp Needham High team, we lost by a 2-0 score with Silva doing a great job at the net. The entire season was highlighted by fine defense consisting of McGowan CAPTAINS and McIntyre and goalie Silva. Our front line at center had Burke, who led the McGOWAN league with 21 points; McCarthy at right wing, second in scoring with 20 points; n A and at left wing, Palermo, who was fifth with 19. Their depth was contributed McCARTHY by center Peterson who had 15 points and wings Ross, Martell, and O’Neil. Five of our players were elected to the City All-Star team. Co-Captains McCarthy and McGowan, McIntyre, Burke, and Peterson help to carry the name of our schoal into the Hub’s sports page.

Sa CO-CAPTAINS KRISCIUNAS LEONAVICIUS We are waging a desperate fight in this school to present soccer as an important sports factor in the Greater Boston Schools. Our squad, almost three years old, has played only three games. This is due to the fact that most schools have not yet organized soccer teams. We feel that something should be done about this. In the past, Technical had a victory over Boston Latin in a crushing 6-1 game. Tech followed this with a second victo oe the Purple and White. Later, we bowed to Belmont Hi -1. Unquestionably, the attendance for this sport is good and regular practice sessions helped immensely. This year, without a coach, we have been carrying on guided by Co-Captains Zi- ckus and Zizniauskas. We hope our school system will con- sider this as an active and worthwhile sport and place it in the athletic programs of our local schools very soon. Never forge The outlook for this year’s tennis team is somewhat better than that of the previous season. The squad lost only one player through graduation, namely—Captain Vincus. Last year the team finished third amongst eight competing high schools. Their record stood at five wins and three losses. Defeat came at the hands of Roxbury Memorial, 1-0; Latin, 3-2; and English, 3-2. The team is in high hopes of avenging last year’s defeats and winning the title. Bright spots are five capable and experi- enced seniors, Leonavicius, Krisciunas, Zizniauskas, Dunn and Curtis. The general spirit and morale are excellent. However, they have their work cut out for them next year, as most of the op- posing schools will have stronger teams. However, if success is the criterion of hard work, this squad should win handily. Let us wish our team and its able coach, Mr. Golden, the best of luck for 1958. Back Row: Dunn, Moccus, Ab- rams, Cox, Zizniauskas, Leon- avicius, Mr. Golden, Krisciu- nas, Curtis.

After reigning supreme for three of the last four years in both Indoor and Outdoor Regimentals, Tech’s track team was forced to bow this year to English High’s array of manpower. Nevertheless, under the coaching of Mr. Joseph Carey and the leadership of Captain Austin Layne, our boys always provided stiff competition for other schools. This year a new system of dual meets was in- troduced with Tech, Latin, English, and B.C. High as the only competitors in Division I. The purpose of this was to increase the number as well as the quality of the athletes participating. In the Fargo Meet, Layne and Noel Hill gave able accounts of themselves. The first of the dual meets was held on January 7, when Tech met its top rival, English. Contrary to the past, the Blue and Blue matched us point for point in the field events and went on to win with greater numbers in the races. Against Latin on January 14, Tech’s Class A literally romped, placing first in 10 out of 11 events, but excellent Class B and C Squads enabled the Purple to win by two points. In the B.A.A. Meet at the Boston Garden on January 18, Bill Lytle took fourth place for Tech in the hurdles, in the State meet on February 1, and finished third, once more against statewide competition. Three days later, February 4, Tech overpowered B.C. High for its first dual meet victory with the whole squad contributing to the point totals. The Reggies proved to be a run- away for English which dominated Class A and came on strong in Class C.
