Four When George Washington for the first time donned a pair of spectacles in the presence of the legislative assembly, there was a hush in which respect and astonishment were mingled. You see, gentlemen, said the man who was for the first time owning to any physical infirmity, l who have grown old in your service am also growing blind. Dean G, A, Hendrickson is neither old nor blind fthough when he realizes the implication of this introduction he will probably be as near as the Dean has ever been to apoplexyl, but anyone who has observed his unselfish and unflagging devotion to the school with which he has identified himself for the last seven years, can not help being struck with the in- estimable value of the contribution the Dean has made to Lawrence Tech. Such sacrifices as he has made in our interests can never be recruited, in fact, to attempt repayment would be to misin- terpret the spirit in which the Dean has served. But neither can we fail to acknowledge our indebtedness, in appreciation of his unstinting efforts in behalf of the students and the school, therefore, the class of i943 respectfully dedicates this book to Dean George A, Hendrickson. ismure 0 5 69 ' ' 6052, 5 i-Krnnow ' 15 5 Q5 Ann I N 5 5 III mmcn 6 Q 'Q I -if 6152? 1931 v-F50 N13 PAM4 Elf S311 X igigiglg-Y ill: QTTX L x -5 A - J-'W ,ZQQ XQQNV I 0 X 7 'QW' f X6 O Z 96014 Q64 Z Eleven years ago, when the world was seeking a way tc overcome the blacl-:est depression it had ever known, Russell E. Lawrence and a courageous nucleus of teaching associates founded the Lawrence Institute of Technology. The difficulties of those early years, which besought him and the little group that comprised the faculty and administrative staff, would have discouraged lesser men, but the slow climb to the top that Lawrence Tech was making was not to be stopped, Virs tually lifting itself by its bootstraps, the school has grown in the intervening years to assume a dominant position in its field, Now beginning its second decade of existence, Lawrence Tech again finds itself in a world of turmoil, strife, and destrucs tion. But this time the school is making a proud contribution to the forces of law and order, its graduates, students, and members of the faculty, have spread to the four corners of the earth in the service of our country, or as engineers producing the tools to win the peace that will surely be ours, Many have brought honor to Lawrence Tech by their skill and exploits, Yet, as important are those who have handled a Job well by virtue of the training and associations they have received within these walls. From a student body of 222 students in 1932, Lawrence Tech has increased in enrollment to where more than ten times that number now attend classes. , S,01UTE op' 5 , nmoiur g Arm qi gf - ' '21 5 1 2 S is I S , q'HMUKE 3 ll .4 1931 F50 ND mms Seven Eight X, ., 1::N1,.,f4 .A ggi, .14- Q-QNX' - . 1-4 ..:',x me 4--F' 5' if-' P531 'K' SL, ..

Twenty-two After five years for morel of intensive study, the Iune class now bids farewell to these ever studious halls of Lawrence lnstitute of Technology. Many have been the nights when the old midnight oil burned as these intellectual individuals crammed for quizzes on thermodynamics, physics, calculus, and all the rest. The first three years were not too bad in re- spect to time for study as these were the days of forty-hour weeks. I-lowever, during the last two years, they have seen the fifty, sixty, and even seventy-hour week creep upon them. Not too many have complained, but the strain has shown on some, even though it be for a worthy cause. This may all sound as though the lune graduates have been overburdened, but somehow have managed to find time to plan and enjoy many social events, Who could forget their I-Prom with Bob Chesters band and those delightful favors? Then there are many who maintain that the Senior Dance given in lanuary was one of the best dances in the history of school. These, no doubt, are the two outstanding social marks in their college career, but then those ever popular bowling parties, stag parties, and dinners cannot be overlooked. No, the lune Class was not really treated so badly. To many, this will be the commencement of a new and ad- venturous career-that of service in the Armed Forces. Many will leave by way of the Enlisted Reserve Corp, many by way of Naval Programs, and many will leave by way of their local draft board. With their recently received diplomas, designating their engineering education, they will be capable of doing more than their share. As is evident from this book, this is the first year in the his- tory of the college that more than one class will leave the old Alma Materemeaning of course, the September class. The tune class wishes to congratulate them on their intensive speed up study program. Now, with a mixed feeling of joy and regret, the class as a whole has reached the goal which it set for itself many years ago. True, many have fallen by the wayside, but there now departs a confident and inspired group. 1 3 x . .

Theirs was an ambi- tious, vigorous choice, for mono-educational L. l. T., they knew, was a school completely dedicated to the maxim, knowledge is power . l-lard work, adequately supplemented with hard play and social events designed to ease the strain, became the order ot the day. Friendships grew out ot unity of purpose. The first day-school group which was to graduate from the school had rooted in the class-rooms and halls of L. l. T, Tirelessly, and often in vain, they struggled to understand the mysteries of mathematics, physics, thermodynamics, and the rest. ln their Junior year the overall pattern became clear as all the hitherto unrelated material took on related meaning and comprehenf sion indicative of the engineering mind set in. At last, they came to the end ot their senior year with the realization that they had won! K nowledge is power, and they had acquired the power that will bring them a two-told vic- tory. A victory tor a tree peace as they prepare to take their part in the struggle now enveloping the earth, and a personal victory after the peace as they contribute their quota to the shape of things to come.

Fifty-si:-1 INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL The lnterfraternity Council arose from the need for a group that would serve to cement the relationship between the various school fraternities Cr- ganized over three years ago by fraternity men who foresaw such a need, the Council has since performed its function in an admirable manner Comprised of two representatives from each fraternity, the group acts in a democratic way in the performance of its duties Among these are, to recom- mend to the Student Council for approval, satisfactory dates for fraternity af- fairs, to act as an intermediary in arranging interffraternity activities, and, most important of all, to act as Judge and mediator in the settlement of disputes and misunderstandings between one fraternity and another, or some other student group, to the satisfaction of all concerned That the lnterfraternity Council has been emminently successful is attested in the closer bond between fraternities, and the increased interest in inters fraternity affairs, which each student considers an integral part of his college days. Fifty-.sev ii -5 it r S T A F F 'i The L-Book at Lawrence Tech, is the only yearbook published by an en- gineering college in the Detroit area. ln spite of the fact that this is only the ninth year of publication, the annual has already assumed and become a tradition. lf the l943 L-Book is not satisfactoryeblame its editoreinechief, Herbert Fortgang, who is responsible for the wild ideas and mistakes. lf it is a success congratulate the editor, George Meyers, and photo editor, Leon Cutler, who have had all the hard work to do on the editorial staff. Thank, too, Charles l-ienstock, who acted as business manager, and artist Ernest Peterkin, Good or bad, this book would not be in your hands at this moment if it weren't for the benevolence and hard Work of Ioe Todd of The Service Engrav- ing Co., Richard Bliton of The Craft Press, and the Felix Studios, whose unpaid time and effort is especially appreciated.

The club toolfc part in all rifle matches within a radius of 300 miles of Detroit last summer and early fall. Starting last fall, rifle classes were formed to help the members of the various reserve programs learn the fundamentals of handling and firing of all small arms By mid season all the veterans of last years team except one had been called to the colors, Four of the men who finished the season on the first team, had never fired a rifle before becoming members of the rifle club last Sep- tember. This year for the first time in the history of the rifle club, it has rifles, coats, gloves, and a Bausch and Lomb spotting scope, so that the club may Carry on without the use of individual members' equipment. The tremendous im- provement in the scores has proven that good equipment readily available is an asset to any team.

Such is the Lawrence Tech Radio Club. Although the Federal Communicaf tions Commission has placed a ban upon radio amateur transmission, virtually padlocking the club's fine transmitter, tew, it any, restrictions have been placed upon other forms ot amateur radio activity. Consequently, when the government called upon the radio amateurs to assist in the work ot the OCD, they eagerly responded by organizing WERS, the War Emergency Radio Service which developed networks ot ultrafhigh-trequency stations at strategic positions in cities throughout the country. With amateur activity curtailed by the war, this ottered an ideal opportunity to pertorm a real service by the or- ganization, construction, and operation ot WERS equipment, lt might be said that the radio amateur picture paradoxically brightened by going from bad to WERS. The Radio Club, under the stimulus of Prof. Byerlay, wholeheartedly enf tered into the program of constructing ultra-high-frequency receivers for use at WERS stations in the Detroit area. With Radio Club membership now ine cluding all Senior electrical maiors, this has been a good opportunity for this enterprising group to gain valuable experience by building much-needed equipment that, we hope, may never have to be used tor its intended purpose ot providing emergency communication in the event of air raid or other disaster. Sixtyetwo CHEMISTRY CLUB LAWRENCE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY CHAPTER OF STUDENT AFFILIATES, AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY After a year ot inactivity the Chemistry Club was restored to active status, this year, by a group ot enterprising students, rnaioring in cheiniccil engineere ing, who desired to learn something more than iust what is taught in school The Constitution drawn up by the preceeding organization was revised to meet the needs oi war-time activities and duties As has always been the policy ot the Club, various speakers troiii Detroit scientific and industrial concerns were invited to lecture on chemistry, chemical engineering, and allied subiects The lectures were open to all interested The present organization believes that it is performing a usetul service in the train- ing ot chemical engineers CLUB OFFICERS James H.

The squad, captained by Arthur Kepler, and consisting of Roland Rogers, Ross Skinner, Perry Whalley, William Wheeler, Vergil Chungun and Robert Cratch was rapidly being molded into a well knit organization under the coaching and leadership of Doc Graeffe. However the effects of the war effort soon shattered all hopes of matches with other schools. Two of our principle opponents, Wayne University and the University of Detroit, banned fencing as an inter-collegiate sport for the duration, and gas rationing prevented the team from participating in matches austide of the city. At the beginning of this year the team lost two of its ablest members to the armed forces, Arthur Kepler was called by the Army Air Forces and Vergil Chungun entered the Naval Air Force. The team is now made up almost entirely of new fencers, who, although they show aggressive spirit, lack the training and experience of the original squad. lt appears as if Lawrence Tech must wait until the war is over before it will again be well known as a school of good fencers. Sii-:ty-four Q? Ili LAWRENCE LENSMEN A monumental step has been made by the Lensmen this year in the re' modeling and rebuilding of the darl-:room The members are of the opinion that the new room will add appeal to the facilities of the club and, as a result, increase the membership The club, as a whole, has been fairly inactive the past year because of the increased working hours of its members The scarcity of photographic sup plies also contributed to the lack of club functions However, one item of activity still continues, the photographs exhibited in the Lensmenkz dizzplay cabinet, ln fact, the subiect matter is constantly increasing in beauty Gpen house will be held by the members at the beginning of the Fall semester. The improved facilities will provide the impetus to launch the or ganization to engage in the activities of past years Flizctyfftve THE C. O. T. C. The CO T C grew out of a realization by Ll T. student reservists of the E H C that a need existed for preliminary basic training during their reserve status, This organization received the wholeehearted support of the administration which bore half the expenses incurred by the group lt was this cooperation which enabled the COT C, to secure Maior Harding of the Michigan State Troops, Canfield Armory, as its instructor, During a thirteen week period, Maior Harding covered such related basic training topics as military courtesy, group life, army organization, military law and discipline insignia and clothing, sanitation and first aid, gas defense, guard duty, map reading, ad tactical stations, While the lectures constituted the major part of the program, the group was trained in close-order drill, manual of arms, and command by those members who had previous military experience. The Mayor ably guided the Corps in this phase of its program. The maiority of the CO TC members were absorbed by the L.l.T. Rifle Club following completion of their thirteeneweelc lecture period. The Rifle club has, since that time, been training the men in prone, sitting, kneeling, and offehand rifleffire positions, With the arrival of spring weather, the remaining members are engaged in infantry and manual of arms drill with the Navy Club, Without a doubt those men who devoted their extra time to the Corps have already, in some cases, and will in all others, realize manifold benefits as they go through their basic training at camps throughout the country. From a less selfish stand- point it is iust as certain that the training tasks of the hard-pressed Army sergeants and corporals will be infinitely easier with the ex-members of the C OTC. F511-:ty-fni:-2 NAVY CLUB Under the sponsorship of the U, S, Navy, the Navy Club was organized during Ianuary, l943 All members of the club are enlisted in the Naval Reserve, in either the V-l, V-5, or V-7 programs. The purpose of the club is to acquaint these men with the Navy by giving them lectures on Naval subiects during the weekly meetings, Training films were procurred from the Navy department covering Navigaf tion, Communications, and lnfantry Drill. Lectures were given on such subf iects as ships, military courtesy, compasses, knots, naval insignia and uni- forms, and signaling, These are some of the subjects that will be covered in the Ofticers Training period, and the club hopes that this work will lighten the future burden. The 'Blue-lackets Manual, commonly known as the sailors bible, was used as a guide. Besides weekly meetings, Mr. Peterson of the Mathematics Department generously donated his time to give weekly lectures on navigation and nauti- cal astronomy. At the first meeting the following Officers were elected with the same titles as used aboard ship: Commanding Officer , Ernest Peterkin Executive Officer lack Tucker Chief Yoeman . , Richard Graham First Lieutenant . , , .,,.. Russell Boland The Navy club sponsored an Infantry Drill Program which was offered to all students. This program included the school of the recruit, the squad, the platoon, and the manual of arms. Sixty-seven THE LAWRENCE TECH BAND In fanuary, l94l, the dream of a Lawrence Tech Band finally came into being, with Mr, Thomas E. Sadler as bandmaster, A better leader could not have been selected, for during Mr Sadler's thirty-five years of musical ex- perience, he had been bandmaster of the 125th lnfantry Band, U.S.A., the l82d Field Artillery Band, USA., and bandmaster for the Fire Department of the City of Detroit, Tom was not only a musician, for he had served in the executive capacity as President of the Michigan Branch of the Army and Navy Bandsmans' As- sociation. ln World War l, he served three years overseas with the hard hitting Canadians. But, all this was too good to last, for Thomas E Sadler, Bandmaster, heeded the call of the great beyond, in Iune, 1942. An attempt was made to reorganize the band this year, without a great deal of success and at this writing the Lawrence Tech Band awaits the ar- rival of some forceful and dynamic personality, who will weld it into a solid unit once again, Sixtyveight fm!!

The demands of war, which have resulted in shortages, longer working hours, and stepped-up curricula, made it necessary to temporarily suspend the activities of a few of Lawrence Techs progressive clubs. The SOARING SOCIETY was responsible in no small degree to the success of the aeronautical engineering courses. lt's glider, the Yankee Doodle, was the last of several designed and built in the labs and shop of the school, l-ligh scorer at many glider meets throughout the country, it was a symbol of the heights to which Lawrence Tech and its graduates may someday attain. The adoption of the Yankee Doodle design by the Army for construction of training gliders was a fitting climax to the efforts of the Soaring Society. A club whose membership was confined to technically qualified students, graduates, and engineers, the TELEVISION SOCIETY was well on its way toward having its equipment put a signal on the air when war was declared. When the Federal Communications Commission banned all amateur trans- mission, the Society still continued its experiments. But with the increasing shortage of equipment, parts, and the leisure time of its members, it was wisely decided to put it 'lon ice for the duration. The TECH BOWMEN was an organization of students who found a common interest in a fine leisureftime sport. Obviously, when leisure time is now a thing of the past, such a club could not be expected to continue for long. Lawrence Tech needs more sports of this sort, and when the war is won the Bowmen will be among the first to resume its activity. Sixty-nine E Seventy qi T 1' N 7:zaz'e'znl't1'e.4 M C fr!!- 57' U X .

Prom the outside looking in it means hilarious partiesg rough and sometimes silly, embarassing initiations, humbling, humiliating experiences for the pledges at the hands of membersg and unnecessarily large expenses. From the inside the picture is very much different. To the member the fra- ternity stands for irreplaceable memories, friendships and contacts. Every fraternity has ideals that any man would be proud to live up to. Occasionally a group will stray from the path of good brotherhood but not far before the old brothers put them back in line. The war has shown many a man the value of true brotherhood. Assistance in his work on the home front and in the army many times saves a fellow days of work and lots of trouble. To meet a brother in some far off place is worth a great deal where friends are few and far between. lt has ben said by many a frat man that his success in life was due more to the man brought out in him by the brothers than to his college education, How true! Meetings make a man feel at home and wish to express himself. He learns to talk before others and how to meet people on their own battle field. Half the battle is won when you have met and talked over a situation with a prospective business acquaintance. Phi Kappa Upsilon is the oldest fraternity at Lawrence, but age and im- portance mean nothing in comparison with the momentous events taking place every clay in this world at war. The events of this year in brief for the Alpha Chapter of the Phi Kappa Upsilon Fraternity would read like this: l. Annual gold cup tournament held at Birch Hills Country Club. Dave Anderson took the honors of the day. 2. loint informal dance held with the Delta Sigma Fraternity for the purpose of raising a fund to supply cigarettes to the LIT boys in the service. Success crowned effort with every lad from Lawrence who was serving Uncle Sam getting a carton if he was overseas or two flat fifties for home service. 3. February l3th was the date for the outstanding event of the year for Phi Kappa's. Hotel Statler was the scene of the dance which was staged for a capacity attendance of merrymakers. More important than these is the fact that many activities were given up for defense work and concentrated effort toward school work. The thing that speaks best for the value of a fraternity is the success of its members, Phi Kappa Upsilon has this record to show for itself. Men of the frat are holding super- visory positions in over a hundred of Detroit's industrial plants. The success of our boys in the service is shown by the following roll call: Pvt Ioseph Ehlin Capt Melvern Iohnson Sgt Kenneth Hutzel Pvt Ioseph Schaeffer Cadet Torn Noakes Pvt Bill Shannon Lt MARINES Lt Charles Hughes Seventy-two UNITED STATES ARMY Pvt Leo Rymarz Lt Roy Stevens Pvt Henry Langlois Cadet Louis Walch Capt Robert Clave Capt.

Their realization of the need for a fraternal organization to mold common interests and promote social endeavors, friendships, and athletic and scholastic spirit, has resulted in the growth of the largest active day-school fraternity chapter at Lawrence Tech.

In the past year for example, two student-reserve clubs, the Candidate Officers' Training Corps, and the Navy Club, whose aim is education of army and navy reserves prior to active duty, have been organized and activated by Delta men. Already well represented in the armed forces before the beginning of the school year last September, the Chapter has contributed eight more men since that time. The majority of its remaining active membership have enlisted in the several reserves. The active military roll is as follows: Army Air Corps Cadet Carl Chrismcin Lloyd Dell Robert Doolin Robert Hooper Iames Kelly Robert Kennedy Arthur Kepler Serge Kulmatycki Eugent Malanyn Edward Rutter Allen Snell Roger Tyler Meredith Albertson Ioseph Armstrong Ioseph Bichler Michael Bielec Robert Brown Carl Chrisman lohn Clark William Clemons Robert Cratch Karl Daniel Seventy-four Patterson, N Selman Field Camp Crowd Grand Rapid Keesler Field.

CD - Sgt iw Alpha Gamma Upsilon, a Social Fraternity, was organized in the year of 1922 at the Anthony Wayne institute in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Fraternity rapidly grew into a National Organization, Epsilon Chapter being formed at the Lawrence Institute of Technology and admitted to the Alpha Gamma Upsilon Fraternity on Iune l8, 1933. During the summer of l937 Epsilon bought a house, thus becoming the first chapter to have its own fraternity house. In its ten years of existence this chapter has grown so that it now has over ZOO members. The past year was a very trying one indeed, for any fraternity, not only the Alpha Gamma Upsilon. No social event could be planned too far in advance with the assurance of success and full attendance because of the steady stream of members into the Armed Forces. However, Alpha Gamma Upsilon can proudly boast another very successful year, both from a social and financial viewpoint. The fraternitys most important achievement of the past year was the com- plete redecoration of the fraternity house during the summer vacation. This momentous task was completed only by the cooperation of every member. Each man took his turn at wielding a scrub brush, a putty knife or a paint brush and the Job was completed in a very short time. All of the rooms were completely repapered or repainted, new fixtures installed in the bathroom, and showers built in the basement. Of course, the pledges also helped maintain a neat and tidy appearance about the house. The past year was not a year spent altogether in work either, for there were many small parties and dances held at the homes of several members. All in all, it was a very successful year for the Alpha Gamma Upsilon.

Since that time Rho Delta Phi has been one of the most progressive frater- nities on the campus. lts members form a nucleus of attendance for all social functions of our school. Rho Delta Phi men were among the organizers of our present Inter-fraternity Council. Rho Delta Phi holds a semi-annual banquet, an annual semi-formal ball, an annual informal dance, and semi-weekly parties. The fraternity has an active membership of 34, a house, high scholastic standing, and an increasing popu- larity. An alumni chapter is now being organized, The fraternity is honored by the membership of three outstanding men: M. D. Test, U, S. Navy, Professor I. K. Peterson, Lawrence lnstitute of Technology.

Deciding that possibly this cauld be attributed to the small percentage of men that could be absorbed into the fraternal organizations then on the campus, their effort to form an or- ganization that would bring together these students with common ideals culminated in formation of the Delta Sigma Fraternity. Since that time, this organized group of students have forged ahead with their original aim of obtaining from this organization for its members much of lasting value that could not be obtained in any other way than through a college fraternity. The autumn of l942 brought with it recognition of the Fraternity by the lnter-fra- ternity and the Student Councils, although its existence had long been recognized by the administration. With that start, the year had to be a success. Starting the social calendar of the school, Delta Sigma fraternity co-sponsor- ed with Phi Kappa Upsilon fraternity the Service Smokes Swing which sent cigarettes to many a service man. Following the advent of the new year, Delta Sigma came forward with their March Frolic which truly afforded an evening of pleasant dancing to all those in attendance. This year, however, was not all pleasant, but even that which was not, gave much pride to the members, for the fraternity gave eight members to the armed forces in this period. lt is to these men, the men of Delta Sigma look with the deepest humility and with the greatest pride, for theirs will be the joy of found- ing and developing a greater fraternal spirit, not only among their fellow college students, but among the inhabitants of this, our world.

Subiect to the strict approval and control of the Student Council, those stu- dents, Iuniors or Seniors, who have maintained a B average or better and have taken part in a prescribed amount of extra-curricular activities, are hon- ored by membership in the honor fraternity, Lambda lota Tau, which repre- sents the Greek letters for L, I. T. lvfany ask why students should be required to enter into activities at school in order to qualify for the honor society. They fail to realize, however, that such activities serve to broaden their outlook, socially, Many future business transactions may have their origins traced to the contacts made at social functions and the training received in the performance of extra-curricular duties The L-Book staff, therefore, takes pleasure in presenting on the following pages the Seniors who have joined the select group of Lawrence Tech. stu- dents honored by membership in Lambda lota Tau.

To the colors is a phrase descriptive ol the Journey many from the halls ol Lawrence Tech have taken in the past year or so. Some were graduates, some were not, some went by choice, some by request, some as olticers, some as privates. ln any event, they have all gone to work toward the same goalethe destruction ot hate and cruelty and the resurrection ot a lasting peace-a peace so strong that generations tor centuries to come will learn about wars from books. A lew courageous souls have already done all they can and will do. To them goes the highest recognition ot honor that can be bestowed by Lawrence Tech Those ot us that are still here know only too little ot what some ot our former mates are going through on land, on sea, and in the air. The knowledge gained within our walls has proven a great asset to most of them. From the class now leaving, many are already in a non-active division ot the armed forces.

Eighty-nine BASKETBALL - 1942-43 Early in the 1942-43 school year the Administration and the Athletic De- partment of L. I. T. deemed it advisable to discontinue all athletics, with the exception of basketball. This decision was brought about by the war and the resultant loss of Tech, men to the armed forces, transportation difficulties, and the extra emphasis and time placed on scholastic work. The 1942-43 basketball schedule was one of the toughest ever undertaken by any L. 1. T. basketball team and included several of the top teams from both the East and West Coasts. To tackle this schedule, Coach Don Bidler had to build a team from the six returning veterans of last year and seven talented but inexperienced Freshmen. It was with this group of thirteen players that Coach Bidler worked and from which he molded one of the best basketball teams ever produced at L. I. T. The Blue Devils opened the season with a bang against the strong Dearborn Naval Base team and won by the score of 52-33. The second game ofthe season was against the Bomulus Air Base, ln this game Coach Bidler's boys put on a great exhibition of basketball skill and easily won by the score of 83-32 with three freshmen taking the scoring honors-Norm 1-lankins and 6-foot-8-inch Chet Gabriel each getting fifteen points and Carl Campbell getting ten. The following week the Blue Devils defeated the Grosse Ile Naval Base 51- 46, and followed with a 6U-24 victory over the Port Huron Iunior College. Norm lrlankins and Carl Campbell each scored eleven points in this game with Ned Grable and Chet Gabriel scoring ten and nine points respectively. The Tech. men played their first M.O.C.C. league game of the season and chalked up their fifth straight victory by trouncing Assumption College 66-42. Chet Gabriel, lanky center, led in the scoring by hitting the nets for twenty-two points. Carl Campbell, Norm Hankins, and Bill Iones also figured heavily in the scoring, netting fourteen, ten, and ten points respectively. The Blue Devil's string of victories was broken by a strong Central Michi- gan quintet, by a score of 41-34 in a hard fought game, but Coach Bidler's team bounced back in the winners column with a four game winning streak over Kent State, St. Marys, Concordia, and the B.C.A.F. team. The Kent State game was one of the best games of the season and even though marred by many personal fouls, was the most interesting and spectacular witnessed at the Hackett Field I-Iouse during the year. Gabriel, Campbell, and Haankins took scoring honors with seventeen, sixteen, and fourteen points respectively. The final score was 71-56. The Blue Devils then ran into some tough sleding, dropping games to the champions of the West Coast, Southern California, by the score of 63-445 to the Peru Naval Base team, who were rated sixth of the Nations service teams, and to the brilliant Wyoming cagers who later went on to win the M.C.A.A. cham- pionship and the National Intercollegiate championship. After a win over Edinboro State the team traveled to Cleveland where Kent State avenged the early season defeat they suffered at the hands of L.l.T. Returning home the Blue Devils defeated the Bomulus Air Base 70-31, only to be beaten in turn by an improved and determined Dearborn Naval Base team 56-50. The Tech cagers took both ends of a home and home series with the Toledo Naval Base and then traveled to Grand Bapids to meet defeat at the hands of Calvin College 56-50. Carl Campbell lead the scoring in this game with eighteen points. The Blue Devils left on their long Eastern trip without the services of their 6-foot-8-inch center, Chet Gabriel, who had joined the Army. The trip was not very successful in the win column, however it was a success in view of the fact that they nearly handed the highly touted Long Island Blackbirds their first defeat in 73 starts, Ninety GABRIEL IONES HANKINS POTTS CAMPBELL GLENN KIESLING GRABLE STURMER OBERSTEIN SLEZINSKI APPLEBLATT The invasion was started with the defeat of the Western Ontario Mustangs, 74-33, at London, Ontario The second game was played against Niagara University at Buffalo, but was not as successful as the Purple Eagles druloloed the Blue Devils, 7l-46. The Blue Devils met the strong Siena College quintet at Alloany where they were handed their second successive setback, 54-45 Norm Hankins copped scoring honors lor the game with eighteen points while Ashley Glenn hit for thirteen. The final and most important game of the trip was played with the Ninety-one Ninety-iwo Long lsland Blackbirds at Brooklyn. The Tech. men played superb baskeball for 35 minutes, but finally succumbed to a late Long lsland rally to drop a 55-45 decision. Returning home the Tech cagers chalked up three wins over St. Mary, the Grosse lle Naval Base, and the Dearborn Naval Base only to lose a game to the high flying Akron Zippers at the Hackett Field l-louse, 85-58. This game was well played, but the Tech. men could not match the all-around brilliance of Akrons block and set shot offensive. A decision over Assumption and defeat at the hands of Calvin College wound up the regular season for L.l.T. with 18 wins and 13 defeats. The Blue Devils were invited to represent the State of Michigan in the Na- tional lntercollegiate Basketball Tournament and they traveled to Kansas City, Mo., where they were defeated and eliminated in their first start by Kansas Wesleyan by one point, 43-42. Post season honors go to Norm l-lankins, Techs crack forward, who was the States scoring champ with 339 points in 31 games. Besides taking State scoring honors, l-lankins also established two more records in scoring. The 339 points is the highest total ever made by any Lawrence Tech. player, replacing the former high of 310 made by Sam Lieberman last year. The same total topped the Detroit City scoring record of 325 made by Bob Callihan, former U. of D. star. CURTAILMENT OF VARSITY ATHLETICS Lawrence Techs athletic program has been curtailed for the duration of the war. Varsity sports like football, baseball, tennis, and swimming were put aside and replaced by a physical education program. The chief reason for the curtailment of varsity athletics was the uncertainty connected with the athletes' status in the army. This, plus the fact that other schools were disbanding their competitive athletic programs, caused the Lawf rence Tech. faculty to do likewise. The finest schedule in Lawrence Techs football history was arranged for the gridiron warriors, but had to be dropped because of the rising wartime conditions. Baseball and tennis were removed from the athletic program for the same reason. Swimming was discontinued because of the lack of proper facilities. The only sports programs held during l942-43 were basketball and fencing. Basketball was very successful this year. The Blue Devils played a strenuous schedule of thirty-one games, winning eighteen while dropping thirteen, They were also invited to represent the state of Michigan in the National lntercol- legiate Basketball Tournament held at Kansas City, Mo. Fencing has been continued this year, but not on a competitive basis. Under Dr. Graeffes able tutorage, the fencers have progressed very well. When fencing returns to a competitive stage, Dr. Graeffe will probably have some of the boys trained so well that Lawrence Tech. will again find its name in the spotlight as it did when the great Bill Osis toiled the foil. The physical education program is being taken in earnest by the students in day school, Coach Don Bidlers methods of body building are strenuous and rigorous. The conditioning received in his class will be very valuable to the student when he is called to active service. All sports will probably be resumed at the close of the war. The physical education program will also be kept in effect because of its urgent necessity. This nation of ours will not want to be caught unprepared again.
