It stems from the realization that you students whom I have known so well for four years are about to become alumni. This means, of course, that you will not be seen around our corridors as often as before. I am sure that you all know that you will be most welcome whenever you care to visit us. The Institute stands ready to help you in the future in every way possible. It is a matter of considerable satisfaction to all on the staff and to me personally that again we are graduating a group we can really feel proud of. In these critical days the whole world needs thoughtful men and women as never before, men who are continually seeking a true understanding of both people and conditions. To smugly say, with a certain degree of false pride, that one is tolerant of men, races and creeds is merely to evade a responsibility. I know you will not seek to evade Wg... , , . . ,,.,.g1,',E A ' f- I 'l732 3'?'7.' 1 , 'Q .. ' . , T . V. Plgvtytgifflv timgifflg- je Iii.-f9s2,.if6'ii5eg:pq,55,' r e ' ' .

At Bradford Durfee Technical Insti- tute, it is in the laboratories and lecture rooms that this task is met and equalled. The major courses include physical, organ- ic, and analytical chemistry. Supplementary instruction is required in such subiects as math- ematics, physics, scientific German, and liber- al arts. Altogether, the student graduating is thus given a sound foundation which will enable him to cope with the problems of the field. vrvwvuuvvu - I .-. -U. ....w..... . y ...Q -5- wf' ' , rl .X i . .ii 3 l f f'J I 'I x if The past few years have witnessed the advance of electricity until it has become a prime factor in the modern way of life. With this idea in mind, the Electrical Engineering Division strives to furnish the student with a thorough training in the fundamental principles of power and electronics. ln order to do this effectively, theo- ry is combined with ample laboratory exercises. In this way, the student has the opportunity to put into practice what he has learned in the classroom and to obtain a working knowledge that can be applied practically in the years of employment ahead. ,f 'u y, tt 5 ' ff? 1555 xAz .,72lQ?l, lt l ' t rg , . .,,2E:'Q':' J: -iv Narita, Q1 - ' www ,y 'tl , A. chemi try and dyeing 'W H Z 1-3 ..,..

It may be taken almost as axiomatic that, at least for engin- eering purposes, no theory or equation is of value until it is put in a form that can be readily under- stood and utilized. lt is the aim of the stali of the mechanical engineering option to present the funda- mental principles and to guide the student progres- sively from the simpler applications to the more complex cases. He will learn how to approach his tasks, that is, he will discover that any device or problem, however complicated, can be resolved into groups of the elementary combinations and studied as such. The particular form in which this knowledge should be absorbed and the extent to which it should be interpreted obviously will depend upon the individual. cui1mlglu----- l..g.-...--1,,,,,, I Xt- wi .

It is for the artist of today to impregnate into the culture of the masses the spirit of modern design.

We all must amend the vocabulary of our language of vision if we are to meet the requirements of our dynamic age. . ,,g,.l,m r 'JL 1-V,-.y ,X-r 'L . Il.: I It is with a somewhat apprehensive feeling that I watch you, the present Senior Class, approach gradua- tion. Somehow I feel that I also should be graduating since my freshman year as an instructor coincided with your freshman year. My reflections on this topic, how- ever, are only momentary, and as I consider the many friendships formed during the first year and continued in succeeding years, I find the past to have a rather enjoyable flavor. Your studies here at the Institute have required you to consider a wide variety of knowledge and ideas in the fields of art, technology, and the humanities. Each individual acquired a certain amount of knowledge. Each student also expressed, to a varying degree, a desire to peruse, ponder, and ping-pong some of the ideas presented to him by members of the faculty. These then are the activities in which you have been engaged and which, if they are as purposefully pursued in the future as they have been in the past, will enable you to become not mere automatons, but rather individuals having the ability to shape your own lives and to bring your goals closer to fruition in the post-Tech years. C. WM. WAGNER adviser Being an adviser to you during your entire four years at Bradford Durfee Technical Institute has been not only a responsibility, but a pleasure rarely. extended to an individual. The bond between us is strong. As your efforts cul- minate in the achieving of the cherished degree, a not- able milestone has been reached, the pride that you deservedly feel, I, too, sense. Using to best advantage the college education that you have acquired, I am confident of your continued success in industry or profession and. in the art of liv- ing. The knowledge you have gained - and more that you will absorb - will help you to see clearly, the tempering influence of mature minds of your professors and authors of texts will enable you to exercise good iudgment, imagination, fostered through the spirit of investigation of abstruse problems, will prompt you to enlarge your mental horizons and undertake new steps of progress, inherent faith, built from many trials in un- dergraduate endeavor, will sustain you when the road is rough. Armed with these attributes of your four-year training - knowledge, iudgment, imagination, faith - you will be a credit to yourself, to your adviser, to your college, and to your country.

V i ce President At the corner of Bank and Durfee Streets in Fall River on the austere building standing stalwart and impressive since 1893, is a challenging sign - Bradford Durfee Technical ln- stitute. As freshmen, we were confronted with this challenge and seventy-one of us accepted it. Now after four years of study, work, laughs - and gripes - we take our exit. The transforma- tion from green freshmen to mature seniors is truly re- markable. Even now, vivid in our minds is that first morning of our undergraduate careers when we sat starry-eyed with anticipation in the auditorium listening eagerly to President Coombs as he acquainted us with the rules and regulations of the College. As we poured out of the auditorium, fervently clutching our newly acquired Student Handbook, many upper classmen stood by, volunteering tongue-in-cheek information. This was our begin- ning. The constitution of our group was primarily war veterans, who hailed Bradford Durfee Technical Institute as a place of opportunity. The mature approach of the veterans' segment and their general propensity for candid discussion has proved sti- mulating. At times, however, their superannuated air sobered activities to perhaps needess conservatism. Others of our group, as well as veterans, were pronouncedly serious, being charged with the responsibility of raising a family or working long hours to defray expenses incurred in attending college. Along with the intellectual growth of experience in our quest for knowledge we have been fortunate to witness the rapid physical development of the college and we have had our shore of enjoyment of the many moments, incidents, and events peculiar to institutions of higher learning. Some highlights follow. In our freshman year, we saw the resumption of publishing the student yearbook, it was called the Pioneer. We also witnessed the first girl cheer leaders, who added much color to the basketball games. And at graduation t James Curtis ,..,..... ..,,.. P resident Raymond Carrier ...... ,..... S ecretary time, the Institute, having been granted the right to awar degrees, we saw the lordly seniors for the first time dresse in cap and gowns. The biggest events of our sophomore year were the charte ing of Kappa Sigma Phi Sorority and the initiation of wor on the proposed Student Council. During our iunior year, the new Student Council, being no set up in its final form, was voted upon favorably by the stu dent body and legally accepted. Also two new clubs wer born in this year: The Glee Club, and The Beaux Arts Club. As we entered our senior year, we had the privilege o being the first class to use the new wing of the college, whic has been named the Leslie B. Coombs Science Hall. The firs intercollegiate stag dance, held in November, under the au' pices of Kappa Sigma Phi Sorority, was a huge successp b invitation, neighboring schools of nursing and colleges partici ated. Thereafter, a number of other dances have been offere in the new cafeteria salon. Among the faculty, three changes occurred: Dr. D. Alexande Severino head of the Department of Art and Product Develop ment left to teach at the University of Wisconsin, Mr. Lero Smith, an instructor of the same department, took a new positio in Vermont, and Mr. Harold C. Smith, associate professor in th Department of Textile Engineering, retired. At this writing, the exciting climax is yet to come - inter views for positions, examinations, the senior prom, dinner dances and banquets - and lastly, graduation day. We have come a long way in four years. We have learne principles of life as well as book knowledge. We have mad our future inviting. We have become soft-spoken, confident truly adult individuals. In some fitful indulgence of reminiscing, this college an nual and particularly the kaleidoscopic summary of this account will serve as a spring board to relive these fruitful years. Annu.

Mast of the students came from Fall River and surrounding towns, but there was representation from neighboring states and even far-off countries such as Burma, Afghanistan, and Puerto Rico. Getting acquainted was made easier through college dances sponsored byupperclassmen and by ,group parties held by the fresh them- selves. Election day placed the following class ofiicers in charge: President, Alan Freemang Vice President, Robert Sinottep Secretary, Carol Robinson, Treasurer, Leonel Pavao. In athletics, the new students soon made their presence felt as participants in soccer, basketball, fencing, and bowling: and coming seasonal sports, such as baseball and tennis, will find the freshman recruits vying with upperclassmen for berths on the varsity teams. ' W The spirit of the college has been greatly increased by the addition of a new cheering squad composed of six freshman girls whose colorful performances have enlivened athletic contests. ln a sense, their enthusiasm is a symbol of the determination of all the members of the Freshman Class to take the initiative in carrying out their various obiectives. X An auspicious beginning has been made.

The late Harold Hart, one of the founders, eserves sp extending his guiding hand in achieving these goals. Delta Chapter of the Bradford Durfee Technical Institute, whose charter was granted in 1909, carries on the national tradition. At present there are twenty-two ' ' ' th' ear has been student members working together. The biggest cooperative venture is y the acquiring of a new fraternity house which serves as a center for business meetings ' ' ' ' f l hats. The gen- and for social gatherings in the form of smokers, dances, and in orma c eral aim of the local chapter is to be active in the community. The degree meeting ' ' ' b ' t' ' ated. of new pledges in Boston and regional conventions are as usual eing an icip In the passing of one of its brothers, Delta Chapter was saddened this year. Cadet John Kneen of the Air Force was killed in a plane crash last summer. OFFICERS V President Joseph H. Murphy Secretary, .,..... Richard Peckham Vice-President Robert S.

Each month, each week, each day there is something new, something to be remembered. A corps of reporters is always on the iob. Details must be gathered: deadlines must be met, proofs must be checked, pages must be set up for the press - and then another issue is on its way to fellow classmates, alumni and others who subscribe. The students who arrange the Distaff recognize the value and experience the participation affords. THE STAFF Editor-in-Chief ...,.

From the chartering of this professional fraternity in April of 1948 by the State of Massachusetts, the membership has increased from twenty to a present roster of over one hundred members, including an actively interested alumni. D With the establishment of the Beta Chapter in the Philadelphia Textile Institute, our Epsilon Phi Pi Fraternity has received a most deserved acceptance as a fraternity, not merely social, but one of truly professional breadth.

Although the membership of the sorority since its origin, has necessarily been limited, it has become increasingly active over the past four years. A This last year, the sorority, having its largest membership, has been able to sponsor many social affairs. Among these were a tea held for all non-sorority girls, a very successful poverty dance, an informal dance in the school cafeteriap and an off-campus dance at the White Rail in Warren, Rhode Island. The sorority also sent two representatives to the formal initiation exercises at New Bedford Textile Institute. The sorority strives to unite women of like interests and ambitions in the textile field in order to foster their common desire for the exchange of knowledge and en- couragement of fine ideals and sincerity.

Also, in keeping with tradition, the Varsity Club has awarded to its newer members above freshman standing the coveted Durfee sports sweaters. This gesture was made possible by funds raised through a college dance and through contributions of club members. Membership in the Varsity Club is restricted to students who have won letters in one or more of the maior sports in college: soccer, basketball, and baseball.

The student chapter at Bradford Durfee Technical Institute, organized on April 12, 1948, under the direction of Professor Wingate, assisted by Mr. Paul Dargie, an en- thusiastic student, has brought to the college all the advantages of the parent society. Locally, the work of the chapter is fruitfulp it provides literature on the latest develop- ments in textiles, it teaches leadership and cooperation, it affords the advantage of lectures by industrial experts on topics which help the student in his college work and also guide him in planning his future career - practical information which is not generally obtainable in text books.

Wingate 39 american chemical ociety Since its inception in New York City in April, 1876, by a small group of chemists, the American Chemical Society has become the world's largest organization devoted to a single science. Its aims are high: to encourage in the broadest and most liberal manner the advancement of chemistry in all its branches. ' A ln September, 1949, the Bradford Durfee Technical Institute Student Chapter of the American Chemical Society was organized. This action represented a great stride forward, with continuing benefits accruing to each student affiliate as follows: he receives journals and periodicals published by the Society, he gains the privilege of attending national, regional, divisional, and local meetings of the parent organiza- tion, he may avail himself of the services of the A.C.S. Employment Clearing House, an agency which has been very helpful in aiding students to locate positions after graduation, and he gains experience in preparing technical material and in pre- senting his findings before audiences and chemically trained people. Starting with thirteen charter members, the Durfee Student Chapter has this year a roster of twelve students. Activities have included lectures and movies presented by members and outstanding men in industry. orrlcens X F 'fi is fr fl0:'. f 'XX A A K ' x K.

Dr. James Watters , F ociety Now in its fifth year, the Engineering Society shows great promise of becoming outstanding in view of the rapidly increasing enrollment of engineering students. lt is through the activities of this group that members are shown the solutions of engineering and related problems of modern industry. Lectures by prominent men in the field, and moving pictures on practical topics provide the principal means. In addition, the friendly discussions which are engendered at each monthly meeting, do much to promote brotherhood and harmony among the members. Thus, the stipulated aims of the society are realized: to anticipate and solve stu- dent engineering problems and to aid in the advancement of engineering, and in so doing, to develop the student's initiative, to encourage research and advance study, and to extend an atmosphere of fellowship among classmates studying similar courses.

Its purpose is to provide the students with an organization to which they can bring any problems they may have while at college. The Council functions under a constitution which was approved by the student body and which can be changed only by a maiority vote of it. President Coombs, as the faculty adviser, reviews any issue that is voted on by the Council. 7 This body aftords the college a representative form of government which allows individuals to initiate new ideas for submission to the proper authorities for consideration. The Council is made up of the presidents of each of the four classes, a representa- tive from each department of the school, and a representative-at-large.

To maintain its specific nature, membership is limited to the proportion of one half foreigners and one half l T citizens of the United States. In regard to membership sought by the latter, priority is given to those students knowing a foreign language. This year's total roster numbers twenty. The avowed purpose of the club is to establish warm friendships between students coming from different countries of the world and to stimulate in these students, ideals ' of intellectual achievement and social development. The club is non-sectarian and non- ! partisan. Socially, good-fellowship and understanding reach a climax in monthly dinner meetings at restaurants featuring national dishes of the members. Countries represented this year are India, Honduras, Portugal, Republic of South Africa, and the United States. l OFFICERS Presidents.. ....
