He furthered his education by attending Northeastern University and Rhode Island State College, where he studied engineering. Mr. Stuart is District Plan Manager of the Southern New England Telephone Company and has been a member of the Chapman Tech Board of Trustees for the past eleven years. He has always shown a decided interest in Chapman Tech and in its many activities. Mr. Stuart is a member of various organizations in New London. He is Past Commodore of the Yacht Club, charter member of the Kiwanis Club, a member of the New London Power Squad and the Telephone Pioneer Society. We, as students of the class of '50, sincerely hope that by dedicating this edition of the Torch to William Stuart, we may express our grateful thanks for the unfaltering interest and support he has given in our behalf. WILLIAM C. STUART N MEMURIAM WILLIAM T. HOPSON 1886 - 1949 l l It is with the greatest respect that we, the class of 1950, bring hack the memory of Mr. William T. Hopson. Through his death our school has lost its oldest and staunchest friend and mentor. Behind him he has left a record of kindly, efficient leadership and counsel. His character and personality sym- bolized the very finest. Mr. Hopson was a man worthy of the emulation of all who unselfishly serve his fellow men. His memory will live forever in the hearts of those who knew him. 5 PURE ORD The memories of our days at Tech are as shadows indicative of our promising future. The incidents. both joyous and sad. which we experienced were an important part of the matrix shaping us into what we are now. It is the intention of this 6'Torch to de- pict succinctly the true spirit of Tech. to trace our shadows along the inevitable path of life. and to serve as a revelation to all who read this hook. If this. the l950 Torch , succeeds in en- abling you to relive your days at Tech, then its purpose has been attained. So we. the yearbook staff, invite you to look hack and enjoy again your high-school days. CUTE T l The Source Faculty and Administration ll The Brook Music' I I I .

I Richard Benvenuti Director of Music MUSIC The success of our musical organization today is due chiefly to the foresight- cdness of Mr. Westcott. Xvhen Mr. Westcott became headmaster, Tech owned few musical instruments and the musical organization was limited. Now we have about 38,000 invested in instruments and a well organized and active musical organization. At first, looking to the future, he began to take an active interest in forming and equipping a band that is today our 'Pride and Joy . From special funds he obtained instruments. About this time Mr. Benvenuti was invited to join our teaching staff. lt is to Mr. Benvenuti's untiring and devoted BEGIN NERS' BAND First Row: fLeft to rightl Bernard Pysz.

When he arrived, the band was small, it has now grown to a membership above seventy. His lirst assignment was to prepare the band for football games and parades. Since that time the band has proudly represented Tech at all such exhibitions. This accomplished, thoughts turned to presenting our first Band Concert which has since become a bi-annual highlight on the school social calendar. Much of the yearly success of the band may be attributed to the beginners' band. The beginners' band was organized four years ago to help those students who were not ready for the advanced band. Each year the beginners move up to take the place of those who graduate. Anothr musical group which we should all be proud to have as part of the school is the swing band. This is another of Mr. Benvenuti's accomplishments The swing band is made up of eighteen members and plays at all school dances. They play anything from Lombardo to Bop. Their theme song was written by Mr. Benvenuti who does most of the arranging. After two years of work with the band Mr. Benvenuti formed the Tech DANCE COMMITTEE First Row: Tina Souza, Anna Mai- orana, Olympia Gentile, Viola Hubbert, Mildred Newton, Bev- erly Newton, Shirley Miller, Lorna Cavanaugh, Elizabeth Holmes.

Glee Club and opened classes in harmony and music appreciation. These courses are very popular with many students today. Another organization closely connected with the band is the baton club which marches in parades and at football games. Under the supervision of Mr. McLoughlin and Mr. Benvenuti, they are a very active group. They are divided into two groups: the Junior group made up of Freshmen and Sophomores and the Senior group made up of Juniors and Seniors. Mr. Balcom, a local baton teacher, is their instructor. The baton club holds two dinners each year. The first is a spaghetti dinner held at school and prepared by Mr. McLoughlin, who, the girls say, is quite a chef. The other is held at a local restaurant. To this affair are invited all those connected with the baton club. The group responsible for the success of our dances is the Dance Committee. There are about forty-five members supervised by Mr. Westcott and Mr. Mc- Loughlin, assisted by Mr. Wusterbarth and Mr. Webb. Mr. Bennett handles the business end. In this group we have artists, paperhangers, carpenters and ladder- men, and when they combine their talents they do a beautiful job of decorating. TECH SWING T BAND First Row lright to left!

For the past ten years the cheerleaders have been lending color and excitement to Tech's football and basketball games. Last year they marched along with the Baton Club and Band in their parades. About three years ago, Tech's Cheerleaders included real live men but somehow or other the fellows seem to think that girls are more pleasing to the eye. This year's group is made up of eleven girls. Under the capable supervision of Miss Parisi and Miss Linkletter, faculty advisors, the group has been successful. Each year the club holds rallies and a banquet where gold mega- phones are presented to the girls. The musical organization is one of the most active groups in the school. Together these groups hold a Christmas Party, picnics, and take an annual New York trip. The success of all the music groups is due to the combined efforts and co-operation of Mr. Westcott, Mr Benvenuti and Mr. McLoughlin.

BLITHE SPIRIT The living and dead were harmoniously blended on the evenings of December 9 and 10, 1949, when the Chapman Tech Dramatic Club under the direction of Mr. Frank Robins and Miss Josephine Parisi capably presented Noel Coward's prize play Blithe Spirit. The play- is based upon the return from the dead of the fiirst wife of Charles Con- domine, since remarried. All that followed was to the hilarious delight of a most appreciative audience. Lorraine LaVolpicelo as Mme. Arc-arti, the crystal-balling medium whose seance brought the first wife from the world be- yond, gave a splendid interpretation seldom encountered in high school productions. 5 l Frank Robins Director Z.-b.'Ll'Ll i Larry Barrett as the bewildered husband renderd an unparalleled performance in a difficult role. Netta Plusch the second wife was superbly cast and gave a magnificent rendition. Elvira, the spirit wife, was por- trayed by Audrey Bridges with skill that would become a professional presentation. Audrey Degazelle as Edith, the helter- skelter maid, received the approbation of the audience. Anna Mae Ross and Robert Dennison as Dr. and Mrs. Bradman were commendable in supporting roles. Mr. Kay- rukstis and his stage crew created an un- usually lavish set. Credit must go to Mr. Rollins and Miss Parisi for their untiring efforts which rcsulted in an outstanding show. .aa .nne Sheer boredom. Y Josephine Parisi Director Fingers ! Fingers ! Fingers!

Ed Peltier, Frank Sarpu, Alicejean Archibald, Bill Payne, Charles Poreda. d Peltier, Mary Lou Jennings Bill Payne, Mary Maiorana DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY On the evenings of March third and fourth the Dra- matic Club of Chapman Technical High School aptly presented 'Death takes a Holiday. The play centers around the three day leave that Death takes from his accustomed work. During his leave of absence nothing dies, a rose never wilts, and youth and vitality return to the aged. Coming to earth in the physical form of a certain deceased Prince Serki, Death hopes to experience all human emotions, especially love, and to discover the reason men love life so much and fear death so greatly. William Payne, as Prince Serki, gave a talented and inspired performance, with the emotional scenes reach- ing professional excellence. Mary Maiorana rendered an excellent portrayal of Grazia, the girl who loves Death and goes with him as he takes his leave of the world. Charles Poreda as the Duke interpreted his lines with professional skill and showed wonderful restraint in keeping Death's secret from the rest of his guests at Villa Happiness. Alice ,lean Archibald made a charming wife for the Duke and an understanding mother for Corrado, played by Frank Sarpu, who seeks assistance from every source when be discovers he is losing Grazia to Death. Mary Lou Jennings portrayed Grazia's mother with the tenderness and fear required to draw the audience's sympathy. Portraying a man disappointed in love with excellent control of emotion was Fred Hewitt as Eric Fenton. Rhoda Fenton, portrayed by Gloria Schnieder, showed her love for Prince Serki and played her emo- tions magnificently. Edward Peltier did well in creating the Baron Cesarea's disappointment in growing old again, as Death returns to work. Robert Jerome portrayed the Major with excellent style and reserve. Joan Borges as Alda gave a remarkable performance as a beautiful girl in love with a man, and skillfully exhibited her disappointment in losing him. Ahly supporting the leads were Madelyn Maynard as Cora, and Anthony Bauduccio as Fedele, the servants. The Dramatic Club owes the success of this difficult presentation to the untiring efforts of Miss Parisi and Mr. Robins. The set and makeup supervision was in the capable hands of Mr. Kayrukstis. Mr. Bennett and his ticket crew were at the door to meet the large and appreciative audience- The cast extends its thanks to Mr. Westcott and the faculty members for their friendly cooperation in help- ing to make the play the great success it was.

The first game of the season was played under the arcs against Crantson, the schoolboy power- house of Rhode Island. A light Cranston Team used its speed on end runs to defeat Tech 28-0. Tech couldn't get a concentrated attack going and never got inside the 25 yd. line. Frank Sarpu's line plunging was the highlight of the game for the Huskies before he suffered a leg injury that was to hinder him for the rest of the season. The four starting backs for Tech were hampered by injuries sustained in practice. The next game was against New Britain which was seeking revenge for last year,s 7-6 upset by Tech. Bucek, a 140 lb. scatback led New Britain to a 20-0 win. Chris Bright with some fine offensive running stood out for Tech. Tech displayed a good running game but fumbles on the New Britain 3 and 12 yd. lines stopped possible scores. The Huskies next journeyed to Stonington and returned with a 20-6 victoy. A Jerry Kelly to Chris Bright set up the first touchdown with Herb Gonzales scoring. Longo converted. Dick Foster scored the second touchdown on a four yard plunge. Longo's attempted conversion was blocked. Gonzales ended the dayls scoring on an end run. Longo again converted. The play of the entire team was outstanding. Two more Tech scores were lost when passes from Kelly were dropped by open receivers. Fitch came to Tech and won a surprise vic- tory, their first in six years over Tech. Fitch's first score came after Tech fumbled on its own 12. Norman Tedford bulled over in two tries., the extra point failed and Fitch led 6-0. Tech drove 72 yards in the third period only to be stopped on the Fitch 13 when the Fitch line held on downs. George McLaughlin, on a 12 yd. end run scored the final touchdown. The point was good and Fitch went home with a 13-0 win. Undefeated Windham led by Tilly Dubose and Frank Cutko beat Tech 20-7. It was the first Windham win over Tech in 18 years. Wind- ham scored first but Dick Foster plunged over for Tech, Longo converted and the score at half- time was 7-7. Cutko scored the second touch- down and Dubose raced 56 yards for the final score. Frank Sarpu was the outstanding player on the field before he was forced to leave the game by injuries. Al Karasevich and Ron Rymash led the defense for Tech. Hartford Bulkeley played inspired football in topping Tech 26-6. Led by Ray Barry who scored three touchdowns and set up another, Q they scored in every period. Two passes ac- counted for Techis score. Dick Foster passed 35 yards to Eddie Andrews to set it up and another to jimmy Buonocore for 16 yards and the score. Tech's first use of the two-platoon system boom- eranged as Bulkeley raced through the defen- sive line in six plays for their first score. In the next game, Hillhouse scored a 36-7 victory over Chapman Tech at New Haven. Tech didn't score until the last quarter when Herb Gonzales circled the Hillhouse left end to score. Longo converted the extra point. Frank Sarpu and Herb Gonzales led the Tech offen- sive while Santo Longo's line play was out- standing. West Haven scored 13 points in the final period to defeat a hard fighting Tech team 19-12. Tech scored first on a beautiful 46 yard pass-run play, .lerry Kelly to Ron Rymash. The attempted conversion hy Longo was upset hy a bad pass from center. West Haven received a lucky break when a Tech defender knocked down an attempted pass only to have it fall into the hands of a West Haven end. Then they drove to the one and scored on an end run. Longo and Rymash blocked the conversion and the half ended 6-6. During this game Ron Rymash was used at the fullback post on several line plunges and accounted for the second Tech touchdown on such a play. Frank Sarpu, Larry Sarpu, Santo Longo and Ron Rymash stood out for Tech. ln a game which was to atone for previous defeats Tech downed Bulkeley 12-0 for its first win over that school in nine years. Tech was in control from the opening whistle and scored the first time they got the ball. With Al Karase- vich, Santo Longo and Jimmy Delmonte opening huge holes in the Bulkeley line for Sarpu and the Foster Brothers, Tech ground out 70 yards in 13 plays with Bob Foster scoring. Longo's conversion was blocked. The second score was set up by a Jerry Kelly to Ron Bymash pass which covered 22 yards. Bob Foster scored again for Tech but Longo's kick was wide. No one Tech player could be singled out as they all played an inspired game from start to finsh. Bob Foster's touchdowns in the Bulkeley game were the first land lastl of his career at Tech. While the season as a whole was not too suc- cessful, the defeat of poor Bulkeley more than made up for the losses to the other teams. Tech placed second in the Eastern Connecticut Con- ference but placed five men on the all-confer- ence team. They were, Ron Rymash, John Nos- sek, Santo Longo, Bob Foster and Al Karasevich. With Ron Rymash, John Nossek, Larry Sarpu, George Cochrane, ,lim Buonocore and Chris Bright returning, Tech should come up with a fine team next year. Good Luck!

George Gregory, former athlete and present in- structor at Tech, was appointed to succeed Fedele Mugavero as track coach upon the latter's resignation. The first meet of the season was a triangular meet with Stonington High and Billard Academy and re- sulted in a victory for Tech. Ernie Shasteny piled up twenty points with firsts in the 100 yard dash, 440 yard run, and broad jump. Other winners for Tech were: Lou Broccoli in the 880 yard run, Richie Lan- caster in the high jump, and Santo Longo in the javelin throw. Next, Tech took on Bulkeley and lost b a 56-43 score. Shasteny again led Tech with 16 120 points. He gathered firsts in the 100 and broad jump, seconds in the 220 and 440 and a tie for third in the pole vault. Richie Lancaster took the pole vault. Longo, with a brilliant throw of 182 feet 10 inches, only two inches short of the State record, took the javelin event easily. The final meet for the squad was the E. C. C. meet at Storrs.

Devlin pitched a six-hitter, struck out thirteen and had a shut- out until the eighth inning. John Hefferman with three hits, and Ken Wade with a single, double, and three runs batted in, paced the Huskies at the plate. Tech banged out twenty hits, received ten walks and was aided by eight errors as it racked up its fourth consecutive victory with a 28-7 win over Norwich Tech. Behind the brilliant one-hit pitching of Nor- man Tedford, Fitch toppled Tech from the un- beaten ranks 8-0. Nick Dousis banged out a clean hit with two away in the ninth to deprive Ted- ford of his no-hitter. Chapman Tech chalked up its fifth win in six games and its second victory over Pratt with a 6-0 win. Frank Pulaski led the Huskies offen- sively with three hits.

Four years ago we entered Chapman Tech as Freshmen, lost and bewildered. In the capable hands of President Maurice Ferrigno, Vice-President Rita Ferri, Secretary-treasurer Ken Wade and under the guiding hand of Mrs. Canfield we successfully con- cluded our first year. We returned, proud to be Sophomores. Our newly elected officers were Anne Saunders, Dorothy Yuhas and Joseph Diurni. Mr. Sheehy was our advisor. Participation in extra curricular activities and social events brought to a close our second triumphant year. Juniors at last, setting examples for underclassmen! Proud of our championship football team. Under the leadership of President Frank Sarpu, Vice-President .loan Miller, Secretary Rita Ferri, Treasurer Wil- liam Bettencourt and a helping hand from Mr. Sheehy, we ended our third year at Tech. Seniors-at the zenith of our High School careers. About to go into the world headed for our prospective futures. But regardless of where we go or what we do the love we have acquired for Chapman Tech will remain in our hearts forever. 70 ANNA ALFIERI JOHN ALD UK Little John Tall . . . what a physique . . .

The Guidance program initiated in 1948 has already outgrown its facilities. The teachers' and counseling room is one of the busiest places in the school. The Faculty Club under the leadership of Mr. William E- Foye elected a committee on guidanceg Mrs. Phyllis Canfield, chairman, C. F. Toomey, J. J. Sheehy, T. R. Flanagan, F. C. Crosby, S. S. Clark, and Mr. Foye ex-ofiicio. John T. Conway has since been chosen to succeed Mr. Toomey. This committee has inaugurated an elective advisory system whereby the seniors, juniors, and sopho- mors have chosen their individual advisers. The freshmen were then assigned to the teachers whose quotas of twenyt-five pupils had not been filled. Both the students and the teachers have found these additional contacts very helpful. With Mrs- Canfield's help, we are able to investigate the possibilities of our future careers. She has assembled a file of occupational information which includes pamphlets, booklets and facts about 150 or more occupations. There are also two bookcases full of college and school catalogues. Aptitude, interest, and intelligence tests are available to all who want to take advantage of them. We are now looking forward to the time when we can have a room just for guidance and a full time person in charge. 104 0 gem-Q fig I'-1 - NG-QEPS NW QS at W ff Wag W XVNX Q. - -v si , f f -4 - 3oNA'1AQ S1 1 Y THE UNION BANK AND TRUST COMPANY OF NEW LONDON I corporated 1792 CONNECTICUTS OLDEST BANK virsirik 61 State Street New London Connectxcut TER HEV LET SOR C Ro HOWARD JOHNSONS 'A' 929 Bank Street Broad and Colman Street Ne London Co n New London Conn CO., INC. 727 RADWAY S DAIRY The Cream of All Dairy Products JGWNX 39 Iefferson Avenue New London Conn NEW HAVEN 8.
