Matteson, a graduate of Chapman Technical High School in the class of 1918, and now president of the Board of Trustees, has been a member of this group for twenty years. For many years he has taken an active interest in banking. He holds the positions of Vice President-Treasurer, Assistant Secretary, and is a trustee of The Savings Bank of New London, Vice President of the Connectciut Branch of the American Bankers' Association, Chairman of the Personnel Committee of the Savings Banks' Associa- tion of Connecticut, a member of the Public Relations Committee of the Connecticut Bankers' Association, and Director of the Union Bank and Trust Company. He is also active in other public projects, for instance, the Groton-New London Bridge Commission, of which he is chairman, and Treasurer and member of the Board of Managers of the Y.M.C.A. Mr. Matteson is also Chairman of the Ecclesiastical Committee of the Groton Congregational Church and Deacon of the church. Despite these many civic interests he finds time for sports and is Director of the New London Country Club and Treasurer of the Inter-Club Ten Pin Bowling League. We, the staff of the Torch, and the members of the class of '49, dedicate this book to Ralph W. Matteson in the sincere hope that by this medium we may express our thanks for the active interest he has taken in our behalf. 4. 1 5 RECQGNITION WILLIAM T. HOPSON MEMBER OF BOARD OF TRUSTEES SINCE 1906 All those who have spent a portion of their lives at Chapman Tech have benefited by the guiding influence and educational fore- sight of William T. Hopson. In the desire to show our appreciation, we have set aside this page in his' honor. 6 APPRECIATICD In the production of this Torch, there has been one person who, through his patient direction and personable guidance, has both made possible the present year book and endeared himself to us who have worked with him. With the realization of this fact in mind, we, the staff of the '49 Torch, sincerely dedicate this page to our friend and adviser, joseph A. Tasca. 7 Ag . .Ip ln. 7wd1fe duced Seama imma Depmamfu ?ecu'a-:ee Adam Adammwmfu Torch Advertising Staff Mr. Nye keeps 'em going . . . Earl Reisel known as business manager . . .

Westcott Headmaster Mr. Westcott has been with our school for twelve years. During this time he has done much to further the interests of Chapman Tech, taking a deep and real interest in our social activities and is seen at all the dances and games. He is friendly, willing to help, and his easy, natural manner of speech sets one at ease in his presence. He has been more than a headmaster to us, he has been a friend, adviser and a person to turn to in time of need. X X ff xx Guidance Q The guidance department of Chapman Tech is an integral part of our school set-up. Every teacher is a counselor ready and willing to help us map our courses and vocational plans whenever we ask his advice. In the teachers' and counseling room are catalogues and other information concerning many and various types of educational institu- tions where we may further our formal education. Mrs. Phyllis L. Canfield has also assembled a file of occupational information where we may find the key to the answer to that all-important question What are we going to do after we leave Tech? Through her own work, experience and courses taken at the University of Connecticut she has been granted a certificate as vocation counselor by the State Department of Education. No counselor can decide what we as individ- uals should enter as our field of work, but through the guidance department we may learn facts and receive suggestions that will help us to make our own decisions more wisely and intelligently than we otherwise would.

It seems only yesterday that we entered Chapman Tech as awkward, gangling freshmen amid the amused and understanding smiles of the upper classmen. Bob Olsen, George Sheflott, and Jeane Hoare were elected president, vice-prsident, and secretary-treasurer, respectively. Under the guiding influence of Mr. Palmer and Mrs. Canfield, the first year was brought to a successful close. We returned for the second year full of enthusiasm. New sub- jects, new activities, the old familiar faces, and the fact that our sharp corners were rounded off, all helped to make our second year short and sweet. Officers that year were: George Sheflott, Russ Gomes, Faye Brodaski and Gene Martin. Then we returned as juniors, I guess we thought we were pretty smart until Mr. Hammond went to work on us with his English Literature. Quote: I don't know what you people are going to do. It's pi-i-tiful. President Howie Christensen, Vice-president Harry Nossek, Secretary joan Campbell, Treasurer john Buckingham. Now we have reached the peak of our high school careers. During our four year stay, we have built up a life-long respect for our school. Soon we shall be forced by the tide of time to take leave regretfully of our alma mater in order that we may make our places in life, but we shall always carry with us a memory of Chapman Tech. 24 LOIS ALDRICH Tall and blonde . . . big blue eyes . . . twirls a sharp baton . . . plenty of pep and spirit.

CLASS PROPHECY 1968--On receiving a telephone call from the manager of the new Fred Searl Open Air Theater inviting us to a free matinee of The Shellman Saga , written by the world famous novelist, Richard Shellman, starring Miss Bette joe Stockwell in the famous stage role of Alice, we grabbed our original Virginia Menghi frocks and dashed down to our Robert Brooks limousine. Driving down the Avenue. we see the many newly constructed buildings. The Virginia Carmenati Art School is next door to the Fred Rogers-Richard Shellman Music School for Weak Fingers. Passing over the newly christened Frank Pulaski Bridge, under which floats Tommie Garrett in his Egyptian Reed Boat, we see Faye Brodaski above flying wildly in a George Egelund Design-Supersonic Rocket. Tied to the new Bob Davis wharf is the battleship, U. S. S. Connecticut, piloted by Admiral john Buckingham, just returned from a trip to Hawaii where he met his wife, Annie, and his two friends-Barbara Popiolek, ballerina, and toe-dancer, and Vinnie Belbruno, wind- ing up a tour of Russia with their famous troupe known as Bend Your Feet or Die. Finally we reach the main thoroughfare where we stop at the Archibald Tea Room, which boasts the presentation of the Campbell Twins and their all talking frogs. After a quick lunch of Crouch's Crunchy Crispies, we leave for the theater. We stop on State Street to admire the new Roger Thurlow radio tuned to a soap opera- Grace and Frances Fin- negan Face Life and enjoy a brief interlude of music that sends you Cbut not far enoughl, played by the Crocetti-Hodge Band, with a solo by Carlton Kydd. On the street we meet Barbara Hubbert who tells us that Eddie Simmons is a big hit in one of the big musicals of the season, Irene , Finally we reach the theater and in the foyer we meet all our old friends. There is Rosa Ames and her husband who escorts their children down the aisle. There is Agnes Havrilla in her strutter's costume, waiting at any minute to dash out and lead Elsie Thurlow and her all girl Orchestra with their pipes, should George Shef- lott be elected president, along with his leading vice-president, John Sugrue, known as Old Honest john . On the stage Joyce Metcalf and her Athletes Feet march out after a brilliant act with her assistant, Eleanor Smiarowski. jo Caldrello next sings an aria from later , a brilliant opera written by William Patton, accompanied by Al Mencarelli, known as The Velvet Smog . We see the millionaire Norman Cote coming in late, along with Mr. and Mrs. Mona Casimono. The play begins. The star was brilliant with her supporting cast, which consisted of Lois Aldrich, Gertrude Slate, stupendous in her role of Little Two Shoes, and Gloria Muscarella as Club Foot Annie. When the curtain descends, there is a mad foot race for the exit where we are greeted with the presence of Earl Reisel who has just returned from a trip to the moon. Finally gathering our following, we trip lightly toward home with our thoughts after a class reunion. 42 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the class of 1949, hereby bequeath: Shirley Pasqualini leaves her best dressed' title to Geneva Davis.

Barbara likes to trip :he light fantastic. In :hese modern dances she not only trips it, nur she jumps and stamps all over ir. The pleasingly plump piano pounder who can do the best hula in school. He sure is a swell bunch of fellows. 1 is Frankestein, ay what? An advanced art student who also took metal work. Handy with his hands! Yeah man! 5 aw 'H P' r aw Gloria tripped around Tech's halls all four years. Was it she that made those dents in ,the floor? The little actress who .rays knew what to do the wrong time. She vays managed to do 2 wrong thing, too. Kenny liked Tech so well that he stayed on and on. And Tech liked Kenny so well that the teachers won't let him go. Gertrude is the quiet type, but she has a mean right when awak- ened in class. A vest-pocket edition of Superman. Jean always kept the class guessing whether she was going to give the right answer or just one of her usual answers. FfedP1aYCdfhC We always thought laflo CVCfV flight affef Charlotte would make :hool in the auditor- im in the key of G. ' sounded like L to 5. a swell campfirelgirl. She has such an inno- cent face. When it came to math, John could hold his own and when it came to girls, he held everybody else's too- woo-woo. Irene always man- He looks so efficient aged to keep the boys with his hand in the at arm's length and yet money box. to keep a finger in their eyes. Bumpy's way through 'hool was paved with retry girls, a sense of imor and an endless lain of passes. Al ran around the halls for three years practicing Trackg he finally ended up in the oiiice. Either Mona's father owns a lipstick factory or she likes the taste of the stuff, 'cause she al- ways has a lot of the stuff on. Vinnie can be seen tripping the light fan- tastic every Saturday morning, and when she tripped it, it stayed tripped. Floyd looked swell in that jazzy band uni- form, but what we couldn't hgure out was where he kept the horse. junior Class History Sept. 465 entered our first year . . . hard time Ending rooms . . . made honor roll . . . elected oflicers . . .

Edward Thompson Edward Thompson, known to his friends and colleagues as Jim passed away Wednesday, December 15, after a brief illness. Born and brought up in England he led a more varied and colorful life than many realized. As a youth he used his artistic talents in helping his father paint and redecorate buildings in England including some of the well-known cathedrals The Chester cathedral was entirely redone by the Thompsons. Enlisting in the service when only sixteen years old, he served in the Boer War and re- ceived recognition from the country he served. He later went to sea thereby visiting much of the world. A world globe at his home was studded with pins, each pin indicating a place where he had stayed for at least twenty-four hours. He also enjoyed a taste of success on the vaudeville stage. After coming to the United States he worked for some time with Mason Hamlin piano manufacturers finishing pianos, and later he was head of one of the departments in jordan Marsh department store in Boston. Before coming to Chapman Tech he con- ducted his own private business in cabinet-making, refinishig, upholstery and interior decorating in North Attleboro, Mass. During his last years, as teacher of woodworking at Tech, he was able also to pursue his hobbies of refinishing and painting. Many of his seascapes, which were his particular forte, were bought by people who appreciated the real feel and knowledge of the sea apparent in his artistry. Those of us, however, who knew little or nothing of his earlier life and back- ground, will always remember jim Thompson for his emphasis on neat, conscientious work, his genial humor and ever-ready wit. His was a positive character with a positive influence that will long be felt the while it is missed. 52 'ILI , f I v a ., A . .ww M2825 tw rv Y W4 L . .N ' , M f iw -M M ,, - 111' 'V' , 1 R' 5225 'fm 'im M , q 'Q 'f 2 .

The performances were marked by an ease of execution that is not overly common in High School plays. Credit for this is largely due to Mr. Dunn and Mr .O'Connor whose untiring efforts were no doubt in the greatest measure responsible for the success of the play. Laurels too, to Mr .Kayrukstis and his stage crew for the intricate and effective set. Miss Audrey Burton proved invaluable in our last rehearsals and was more than cooperative. Mr. Bennett and his ticket crew did a fine job, the audience being both large and appreciative. Several amusing incidents occurred during rehearsals that did much to remove the inevitable nervousness that came with the approach of opening night. Perhaps the best of these was caused by a miscalculation in the quantity of chemicals necessary for a cer- tain smoke effect, In no time at all the stage was filled with smoke and actors and actresses were scurrying back and forth looking for an exit. The dress rehearsal audience found this to be one of the best scenes in the play. Luckily all went well opening night, smoke included. 82 I? .,.k Among the characterizations, the outstanding was Edward Jaczinskis portrayal of the leading role, the happy-go-lucky Grandpa. Anna Mae Ross gave a sensitive rendition of the difficult role of Penelope Sycamore. Lenny Hedding as the dashing Tony Kirby was perfectly cast. A fine and convincing performance was given by Mary Maiorana as the lovable Alice. Salvatore Macrino gave a hilarious rendition of the role of Mr. De Pinna, the diminutive, bald-headed artist. John Sharp was excellent as the fiery Russian cossack, Boris Kholenkhov. George Egeland as Paul Sycamore and Carol Bigney as his daughter Essie fitted the roles perfectly and did a fine job. Mike Savona drew many laughs as the excitable income tax agent. Audrey Bridges portrayed with admirable finesse the difficult role of Olga, the Russian countess. George Clarkin and Marjorie Alger were uniformly excellent as the prominent New York socialites. Arthur Di Gazelle and Edna Farrel as Donald and Rheba, the colored servantsg Joyce Witt as the Tipsy Gay Welling- tong Earl Reisel, Richard Castagna and Peter White as the federal agentsg and Robert Silva as Ed, the marimba player, all did ifine jobs in supporting roles. The cast extends its thanks to Mr. Westcott and the other faculty members for their friendly cooperation in helping to make the play a success. 1 YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU vsvwv V -, Y , Q S 3 I W ,, . it M. ft :iw JACK CONWAY Athletic Director Q-M -ff, mf-,mf,we-2fa1zwf2vf1ffrn1 ffe1'fn fwwi, .-,.-.isxftffft Sw--um-:sm .-fs nuxfm:-1 ?5i?!55nliB'!m'ie: i ' ., 'fm , ' .

Nfl HARLAN STURGIS Line C oach FOOTBALL ' The 1948 version of the Tech football team was certainly eyefilling. The new red and black uniform caused the Huskies to be ranked as one of the best equipped teams in the state. Athletic Director jack Conway and Treasurer of the A. A. George Gregory have reason to be proud of the way the team was outfitted. In retrospect, the 1948 season was easily the most successful of Coaches Tom Flanagan and Harlan Sturgis. The record of six wins and two losses proved that Tech's team is capable of holding its own with the leading teams in the state. The experience gained in the 1947 season was invaluable to this year's club as they showed poise and determination to a marked degree. I.et's hope that a similar improvement will be noted in the 1949 team.

The game was a stalemate for almost three periods until a long run and a pass put the R. I. team out front 6 to 0. Following the kick-off Tech started a 60 yard march which was climaxed by Lou Casi- mono's touchdown. Santo Longo place-kicked the winning point. NEW BRITAIN Remembering the 33-0 defeat of 1947, the Tech team was determined to carry the fight to New Britain and this policy paid dividends. Right from well bottled up in its own territory. A gamble by New the start Tech kept the Golden Hurricane Britain boomeranged when Norm Cote intercepted a pass on the 10 yard line and galloped into the end zone. Longo place-kicked the point which was to be the winning margin. Tech then settled down to a defensive battle and held New Britain at bay for the i n gs 4 N5 'im aa., fi flrsimne .,.i5..W,t .

The Tech line rose to the occasion and smothered the point- after attempt. That was the last time that the Huskies' goal line was in danger. It was a team triumph but the line backing of Frank Sarpu and Richie Brown must be commended. The line stripped the New Britain interference and these two boys made tackle after tackle. The manner in which the Tech forwards rushed the N. B. passers made it difficult for them to obtain many completions. While it was an upset win, there was no doubt that Tech well deserved its victory. FITCH Art Marquardt, speedy Fitch halfback, got the Tanagers off to a six point lead with a 65 yard run in the first series of plays. Shortly before the half ended Eddie Fenton evened the score on a ten yard end run. The half ended in a 6-6 tie. Tech finally got started in the third quarter sparked by the running of Charlie Favolise and the passing of Hank Sec- chiaroli. During this period Tech scored twice, once on a Favolise run and later on a Secchiaroli to Cote pass. Longo kicked one of the point-after attempts to give Tech a 19-6 win in its first conference game. The Husky line successfully bottled up the Fitch offense except for Marquardt's early run. WINDHAM The Huskies journeyed to Willimantic and re- turned with a 28-7 victory. The Foster twins featured an opening drive which carried to the Windham five yard line. Here Bob Foster bucked into the line, but fumbled, and Windham recovered. Windham at- tempted to punt out but Lew Swan broke through to block the kick and Norm Cote recovered for Tech's first score. Longo kicked the first of four suc- cessful extra points. Secchiaroli passed to Dick Lan- caster for the second score and the half ended 14-0. On the first scrimmage play of the second half Hank passed to Lou Casimono who went all the way to the Windham first yard line from which point Lou bucked over. The first Huskie score came on an eight yard run by Frank Sarpu. PLAINVILLE Tech's next opponent was Plainville about which little was known beyond the fact that they were enjoying an undefeated streak of nineteen games. It was a hard fought contest in which the lighter Plainville team battled desperately to defend its streak. Tech was inside the enemy fifteen yard line three times but was unable to score in the first half. In the second half Tech's all around conference quar- terback Hank Secchiaroli took over the show. He scored once on a beautifully executed bootleg play from twelve yards out and passed to Dick Lancaster for the other score as the Huskies won 12-0. The Tech team was pleased at the splendid spirit shown by the game Plainville team. It was their first defeat in twenty games and the first time in four years that they had failed to score. Co-Captain Bud Camilucci played a brilliant game at his tackle post and was responsible for reducing the highly rated Plainville wingback to minus yardage. Time and again Bud piled up the interference leaving it to his end and backer up to make the tackle. STONINGTON The red-clad Huskies reached their peak in this encounter. The first half, which ended 6-2 in Tech's favor, gave no indication of what was to come. In this half the Secchiaroli to Lancaster combine was good for the Tech score. The Foster twins and Frank Sarpu put on an exhibition of drive and power in the third quarter which left no doubt as to the outcome. Behind the hard charging line these backs took laterals and handoffs from quarterback Sec- chiaroli and raced thru large openings to roll up two fast touchdowns. Stonington did manage to shake loose their big fullback, Ronnie Buck, for a forty yard touchdown run. The final score was 18-8. In this game Secchiaroli stamped himself as an excel- lent field general as he ran the team flawlessly. HILLHOUSE After the splendid showing against Stonington, expectations were high for an upset against Hillhouse. . .cct . ...c..c s . . ..,..,..cc ....,...c . iiccc at .. - itiflff!-7' Y -5 ft.: ' , 3 F - fi --sf. 1 V 'a x - ,,.. f t . i , Q -- -,.q3:m-'Gini' --Y ,V ' I ' w1 ',n,,,.:- i 1 1 ' . ,uv E::':3L...5!:i5I: h,' ..h.Ev,. , .I .. 5' - -:'fIi1:: 11:5 f5 ' V' Jlllffifi -sew . 1 - ' The two teams were among the few remaining un- defeated teams in the state and considerable attention was focused on the game. The Hillhouse team showed tremendous strength and speed. It was the first club which was able to gain consistently thru the Tech line. It had a very heavy line and talented backs. The Huskies fought gamely but were unable to hold the New Haven team in check. Offensively, Tech threatened several times but could score only once, on a Secchiaroli to Dick Lancaster pass. Several other passes just failed to make connections. The final score was 53-6, with two of the Hillhouse touch- downs coming in the last five minutes as the Huskies gambled on passes. Sophomore john D'Amico had a chance to fill in for the injured Al Kabanuk, and did an excellent job particularly on the defense. BULKELEY In the final game against the home-town team nothing seemed to go right. Once again Tech won the battle of statistics but lost the game by a 2-O score. The Tech team continually threatened to break loose but penalties and fumbles helped the Bulkeley defense. The breaks came in the third quarter when a Bulkeley punt rolled out on the Tech 7 yard line. On the next play an end run was good for a first down but we were detected clipping and were set back to the l yard line. Secchiaroli went back to punt but the pass from center was high and he was forced to step back and onto the end line. He did manage to get away a beautiful punt which would have ended the danger but the damage was done and the automatic safety was awarded to Bulkeley. A Hurry of last minute passes failed to produce the necessary score and postponed for another year Techls chance to win this struggle. At first glance it appears that Tech is to be badly crippled by graduation. Only 2 of this year's starting club will be returning for action, Santo Longo at guard and Frank Sarpu at fullback. Those who grad- uate are: Co-Captains Hank Secchiaroli and Bud Camilluccig ends Dick Lancaster and Norm Cote, tackle Al Kabanukg guard john Myshka and centers Richie Brown and Lew Swan, in the backfield we lose Fenton and Casimono. Tech placed four men on the All Conference team. They were Lancaster, Brown, Longo and Secchiaroli who was the only unanimous ch-oice on the team. A further team honors was the Co-championship of the Eastern Connecticut Conference. The loss to Bulkeley allowed them to tie us for the title. While we are losing a great number by gradua- tion, there will be a good nucleus returning. Among those who gained valuable experience are linernen, Rymash, Davis, D'Amico, Nossek, Bettencourt, Del- monto and Karasevichg and backs Dick and Bob Foster and Charlie Favolise. These men, with Longo and Sarpu, will be the backbone of the 1949 team. 91 19 ' A 'L V in -' ..,, A . 1 ' .A A V A ' , L' 7 V . , VA 1 A an A V ws' 1' AA AV V V VV .1 A V V V 4,', , VAA eAg,ggg,i f ' wx EA, K ' A,::A - 'W ' f X',W .AA W -QQA 'ffl 2 fu fr..

The huffing and puffing teachers put up a good show but the varsity players showed no mercy in rolling up the score at their leisure. Hughie Devlin, Bob Olsen and Richard Lancaster provided Tech with its scoring punch as they netted forty-four points between them. Fedele Mugavero was high for the teachers with ten points, while jack Conway hit for six. In the first conference game we were defeated by Norwich 67 to 58. Tech was kept in the game by the scoring punch supplied by three playersg Bob Olsen, Richard Lancaster and Hughie Devlin. Stontington High School handed us our second loss by defeating us by a score of forty-six to thirty- two. Lancaster and Devlin were high scorers. Robert E. Fitch basketball team took a four point lead early in the first period and never relinquished it in scoring a 51 to 47 victory over Tech in the Eastern Connecticut conference. Lancaster, Olsen and Devlin played an outstanding offensive game. The Chapman Tech basketball team played its fourth game against the Coast Guard J. Vfs in Billard Hall. It was a reasonably close game in the first three quarters when the cadets led 41 to 32 but in the last quarter the J. V. outscored the Huskies 22 to 3. The final score was 63 to 35. H ugh Devlin Although losing all three opening games the Huskies crowded the opposition all the way. Tech suffered its second Stonington defeat by a margin of 58 to 35. The Huskies trailed 8 to 6 at the end of the first quarter but went out in front 28 to 18 at the half. After increasing its margin 38 to 33 Stonington put on its winning drive. The final score, Stonington 41, Tech 58. Devlin was high scorer for Tech with Z0 points, followed by Bob Olsen with eight. Tech suffered its seventh straight league defeat at the hands of Windham. Olsen was high scorer for Tech with 8 points. Hughie Devlin and Richie Lancaster were tied up by a tight Windham defense. Bulkeley school edged out Chapman Tech 57 to 36 on a follow up field goal in the final forty-five seconds of an overtime period. The Huskies had com- pletely dominated the play from shortly after the start of the second period and it appeared that Tech would win going away. At the start of the final period the score was 23 to 21, and when the clock ran to the official time-out, the score was 27 to 26. From then on it was surprise after surprise. The game was sent into overtime and the final score found us defeated by one point. Tech scored its first league victory by defeating Norwcih 37 to 27 in the Y. M. C. A. Tech switched from its usual man to man defense and used a zone defense which proved highly effective against Nor- wich. Tech used only five men throughout the game. Lewis Swan and George Bishara played outstanding ball defensively while Hughie Devlin, Bob Olsen and Richard Lancaster set the pace offensively. The basketball season of 1949 will be remembered for the spirit and fight exhibited by the whole team in every game. In game after game the sportsman- ship and play by Mugavero's boys was commendable. Coach Fedele Mugavero worked hard with his team and deserves praise for the way in which he worked his fellows into shape. .im ,...w SW! N 1-, , 1. U W 001. .tgszjf L'59I.

A TRACK Our track team was coached for the third year by our capable coach, Fedele Mugavero. The Huskies travelled to Norwich for the triangular meet with Bulkeley and Norwich. Norwich won the meet, but not without a scare from Tech, as Curt Shellman won both the hundred and two hundred and twenty yard dashes. He also took second place in the broad jump, for individual honors with thirteen points. Richard Lancaster placed second in a thrilling high jump contest. Bulkeley defeated Tech in a track meet for the first time in eleven years by the score of fifty-one to thirty-seven. Curt Shellman again took individual honors in winning the one hundred and two hundred yard dashes, and also by taking second place in the high jump. In the last meet of the season, Norwich Free Academy successfully defended its Eastern Connecticut Conference track and field champion- ship. A very versatile Norwich team showed unsuspected strength in the track events, and even more surprisingly outclassed the league in field, weight, and jump events. Curt Shellman and Santo Longo placed for Tech, with Shellman winning the one hundred yard dash and Longo the javelin. The scores were: Norwich, 65 52170, Bulkeley, 29 9f70g Chap- man Tech, 18 45f70, Fitch, 14, and Stonington, 3 34f70. Throughout the campaign the Tech points were scored by Shell- man, Lancaster, Fenton, and Longo. The remainder of the squad showed great improvement by' the end of the season and the year's experience should prove to be an asset for the coming year.

The team finished in second place in the Eastern Connecticut Conference, behind the Windham nine, which was led by the brilliant pitch- ing of Howie Oldershaw, by far the league's out- standing individual performer. Tech inaugurated its season on April 14, 1948, by winning a game with the faculty called at the end of seven innings because of rain. Hugh Devlin started for the Tech nine, limiting the faculty to two hits in four innings before giving way to Butch McGowan. Mr. Mugavero went the distance for the faculty. The Huskies next met Pratt High School of Essex, and were victorious by a score of ten to two. Steve Campana and Howie Christensen starred offen- sively behind the one hit pitching of four different pitchers, Devlin ,Funk, McGowan, and Bishara. In our first conference game we were defeated by Stonington by a score of thirteen to live. Ed Funk started for the Huskies and was charged with the defeat. Butch McGowan replaced him for the rest of the game. Stonington collected nine hits to Tech's DAVE GOOD NORM COTE OUTFIELD 1ST BASE SCVCII. The Huskies next met Robert Fitch and trimmed them ten to three. Ed Funk and Butch McGowan turned in good mound performances. Don Rossi, Ed Funk, and Steve Campana paced the Huskies at bat with two hits each. S Tech romped to a fourteen to nothing score over Bacon Academy in our fifth game. Ed Funk and Hugh Devlin led the way with two hit pitching. Howie Christensen, Norm Cote and Don Rossi starred with the stick. Tech toppled Bulkeley in a hectic game by a twelve to ten count. The game was marked by many as the strangest exhibition of baseball in the history of the two schools. Throughout the three hours and fifteen minutes of baseball, a total of Bfteen bases on balls was given up, and eight batsmen were hit. Donald Rossi, Norm Cote, Don Bordeau and Ken Wade starred offensively for Tech. Funk started this game but was replaced by McGowan who became the winning pitcher. Tech whipped Billard badly for our fifth victory. Devlin, Funk, and McGowan split the pitching while Howie Christensen, Norm Cote, and Don Rossi paced the Huskies at bat. Behind the four hit pitching of Ed Funk, Tech JOHN WOROBEY BOB DAVIS OUTFIELD SH ORTST OP trimmed Norwich five to two. The Huskies played their best ball of the season as they recorded their eighth win in nine games this season and their third conference win. Along with excellent pitching, Ken Wade and Bobby Davis starred defensively while Howie Christensen, Steve Campana and Norm Cote starred at the plate. Tech defeated Bacon Academy for the second time, by the score of eighteen to two, when Tech's batting power asserted itself with its full force. Travelling to Willimantic to meet the highly rated Windham nine, ledby their brilliant pitching star, Howie Oldershaw, we were trimmed by a six- teen to one score. Tech took a one run lead the first inning, as Campana singled and scored on Cote's double to right. Windham iced the game in their half of the same inning, scoring three runs. Ed Funk started for Tech, and went five innings before being relieved by Butch McGowan and Hugh Devlin. In their second game with Fitch, Tech romped to the season's record score as Fitch had no pitcher who seemed to be able to quell the slugging batsmen of the Tech nine. McGowan started this game, but was relieved by Devlin who pitched fine ball for the last seven innings. For the second time the Huskies defeated Bulk- eley. Ed Funk led the Huskies with a masterful three hitter. Tech won the game in the first inning, scor- ing two runs on successive hits by Howie Christensen, Steve Campana, and Norm Cote, and went on from there to win decisively. Tech dropped their last game of the season to Norwich who had their revenge by thumping two Tech pitchers for nine hits and six runs. On the other hand, Tech was able to score only three runs due to effective pitching by Ted Alex, who came on to stop Tech's final bid for victory. Thus ended another successful season for Tech's always dangerous baseball club. With a fair number of veterans coming back, Tech should remain next year in the thick of the pennant scramble. 3 5 5 ,, iv , f,,s- . WUI ., .. ..
