THE PICKOUT 1913 CHARLES JOSEPH CLEARY AK CHARLIE Skull and Bones, 2, 3 Glee Club, 1 Rams, 1, 2, 3 Football, 3 Captain Baseball, 2 Textile Show, 1, 2, 3 Baseball, 1, 2, 3 Athletic Council, 3 Class Football, 2 Vice-President L. T. S. A. A., 2 A staunch supporter of Gene. A baseball player of no mean ability. A great rough houser. A devoted admirer of the fair sex. A man of excellent habits. A great bull fighter and one who has been known to throw the bull every time. A brow who knows the wool fibre from A to Z. A youth who claims this picture does not do him credit. A strong supporter of the green. A fellow whose opinion is highly valued. A fellow who has his nerve and who carries a free pass to success. A strong worker for the school. A man whom with all his faults we love still. KENNETH BARTLETT COOK KENNY Class Secretary-Treasurer, 3 Textile Show, 3 Cotton Club, 1, 2, 3 Cotton Cards, 1, 2, 3 During the first two years he marched in the files of com- muters, but lately having become more trusted by his folks, he has been allowed to live in town. He proved himself worthy, for he still continued to get H ' s in his exams, and as he is one of Steve ' s strikers, he stands in line for the cotton medal. Coming from historic Concord, Kenny has a great liking for military work, and so he puts in his spare time dril- ling with the militia of that town. Like all good soldiers, he is very fond of soft eyes, and this probably accounts for his great Happiness when he is up in the Design Department. He is very clever on the ivories and would make a valuable acqui- sition for some movie house. His real profession should be that of an instructor, for he surely would make good at it. GUY TALBOT CREESE GUY Alembic Society, 3 This worthy brow wandered in from the Pine Tree State seat of knowledge to enlighten his brain in the mysteries of chemistry. It is a puzzle to one not knowing him, how one head can hold in such a vast accumulation of knowledge re- garding the dyeing of the epidermis of man ' s best four-footed friends. Aside from this he can also expound fluently on the advantage of the Danvers fire department and electric light plant. Furthermore, he can ask questions that will tax the in- tellects of instructors from Perk to Doc. Smith, which proves that, although he hails from Danvers, the haven of nuts, he is far from being one himself. We predict for him a bright future, and we look forward to the accomplishment of great marvels from him in the leather industry. 27

HERBERT BOWEN BENNETT AK$ HERBIE Pickout, 3 Asst. Manager Baseball, 2 Rams, 2, 3 Manager Baseball, 3 Textile Show, 3 Behold the man who has won for himself the title of chief of rough necks. He started life even as you and I, and his earlier years were spent in learning the difference that exists between bovines of various ages, until he became proficient enough to be able to tell their ages at a glance. The fancy for domestic animals was replaced by a great love for the study of the wool fibre, and to satisfy this craving, he came over hill and dale to study under Eddie, the wise. He broke up the monotony of study by taking short trips to Boston, and it seems strange that these were not extended to Portland where he is said to have great interests. Wednesday afternoons he almost always drives a noble steed around town, and the Editor will always remember the good lectures on animals, natural history, and human nature, which Herbie was wont to give on those long drives. He surely is a fine fellow and always showed an interest in the school and in his work, and, as he is bound to do the same with his future work, those who get him upon graduation may consider themselves lucky. HAROLD PATY CHURCH PADY Pickout Board, 2 Society Designers, 1, 2, 3 From the state where the first cotton mill was built, there came to us this worthy youth, but it was not until he had spent a few years, at Dartmouth, that he decided to cast his lot with Textile men. On entering, he joined Heine ' s flock, and we are glad to say that he stuck it out to the finish. Nevertheless our faith in his love of work was greatly shaken by his frequent and extended stays in Providence. We hear there is some at- tractive Eve laying her snares for him in that city, but they surely must be weak, for he has always been able to break away and return to us. Pady delights in small games of chance with room-mate Artie, and it is a well known fact that each one takes a turn in winning. He surely is some boy with the mandolin, as well as with pen and brush, and we do not doubt that some day we shall be wearing cloth which he has designed. 26

THE PICKOUT 1913 ARTHUR NAPOLEON DAVIEAU Engineering Society, Captain Baseball, 3 Baseball, 1, 2, 3 DAVY 2, 3 Class Football, 2 Football, 3 Class Vice-President, 3 He is a very quiet, good natured youth, and one who sup- ported the honor of his class and school on the gridiron. He is enlisted in Perk ' s army, and owing to his honesty and love of work, he is allowed to correct math, problem books. His first two years were spent in the sanctity of his room, working hard over his studies, but recently it has been reported that he has been out late nights. For femmes he has no use, and we deduce that there is one who takes up all his at- tention in Cochituate, his home town. He is Captain of the baseball team this year, and judging from his work of the past years while he was pitching, we are lead to expect a banner season of victories. A hard and steady worker and one who can always be depended upon, he will surely make good in the engineering field. ALEXANDER DUNCAN DAVIS ALEX Engineering Society, 1, 2, 3 An -ge-e-o-h! So sings this bird all day long. He is a follower of the slide rule brigade and queers everything by having his work done on time. Ah, when we think of the long hours he spends on his various subjects, we can appreciate the fact that he is a hard worker. In fact he has killed many a fine hair which had grown on his head by continually worrying and thinking. Not content with worrying himself, he keeps the instructors worried by his fire of questions, which he usually hands out at the end of each recitation. Before entering Textile, he had some experience along mill lines, and now having ac- quired a large amount of knowledge, he is bound to make rapid strides in the textile industry. ROY DEARBORN lizzie, Alias mrs. horton Engineering Society, 1, 2, 3 Every day this brow makes his weary way from Andover to the City of Spindles, where he comes to train his mind along engineering lines. This little trip must surely agree with him, for he seems to have a large amount of surperfluous fat about him. Roy seems unable to suppress a great desire to boss, for any time there is any work going on, he is always ready to offer suggestions regarding its accomplishment. Some day he may have a position where he can exercise his nature to his heart ' s desire, and then he will be happy and contented. 28
