He bids adieu to home and friends, And soon is lost in college. His dream of college life is not Just what he thought ’twould be. He longs again for prep school days When he was “King” and free. He finds no solace in his books Which once were his delight, He fears the faculty by day, The Sophomore by night. J opf omore The chesty Sophomore struts along, A careless idle dreamer, “I’m King of all the world!” he thinks, This haughty, proud fifteener (?) His face and brutish eyes are fierce He has an awful stride, His head is held so high aloft You’d think his learning wide. But were his brains all .dynamite And once explode, I swear There wouldn’t be enough to blow The dandruff from his hair. Senior The Senior, ah, the Senior is The jolliest you’ll find, The thought of worry never has A chance to cross his mind. His thoughts are all of pleasure, and His head is in a whirl, His fancy always turns to love, The ball-room and a girl. He’ll soon get o’er this life of fun, A mill hand then he’ll be, He’ll put away his full dress suit, And don his dignity .

Having spent a few days at Mt. Hermon, and quickly deeiding that the ministerial life was a bit too confining, he reefed his main sail and at last dropped anehor in Lowell. Now sinee Tracy is a thin man, the forementioned shadow was consequently straight and narrow, so “ Bemis after some deliberation deeided that a new and somewhat broader reflection would suit the purpose better. So today we find him the only original A. B. A. As to his meehanieal ability he needs no better recommendation than the one Summersbv, the electric stop-motion inventor, is ready to give him, for “Bemis” has been his right-hand man throughout his scientific research work. If you want sure conviction as to his in- dustriousness, glance over his well-kept notebooks and carefully arranged data, and you can ' t help blit predict a bright future for him in the engineering world. FRED AMOS ABBOTT “farmer Rams, 2, 3 Manager Baseball, 3 Asst. Manager Baseball, 2 Pickout, 1, 2, 3 Nominating Committee, 3 Class President, 3 Upstream Committee, 3 Three years ago a young man came to us from the small but prosperous town of Dexter, which is located in the backwoods of Maine, and cast his lot with the boys at Mary Shattuek ' s. I nlike the others there, his evenings were spent in plugging away on his freshman subjects, which he passed off in great style. So that is why these past two years he has been able to spend his time joy- riding on the B. M., between Boston, Lowell, and other nearby points. Puzzle: Find Abbott on a Wednesday evening in Lowell. He is an ardent follower of Eddie Barker, and many pleasant hours are spent in the wool department listening to Mr. Howker tell of the many beauties and merits of Saltaire (145). Although of a wander- ing nature, the “Farmer” has always attended regularly to his work and has made quite a name for himself in the Barker Kingdom. His efforts have always been of the highest order while in school, and without doubt when Fred gets out into the mill world, he will uphold the reputation he has earned at Textile. T Ii E P 1 C K 0 l T 19 14 RAYMOND FROST BRADLEY A K h “ brad Engineering Soc iety, 2, 3 Pickout Hoard, -2 Skull iiiui Hones, 1, 2 Pickout Student Censor, 3 Rather a quiet unassuming looking chap, but the merry twinkle in “Brad ' s eye gives him dead away, llow many Sunday evenings have we seen our little Raymond don a happy smile and a dean white collar and walk briskly and expectantly toward the little village of Pawtueketville. Alas, my friends, 1 think he went too often, but then — why consider frivolities? Who would think that such a small fellow was in reality a re- nowned hunter. Many a night he has returned from a long day ' s tramp in the woods with a bagfull of game (partridges, squirrels, etc., — no chickens). ‘ ' Brad is a worker from the start to the finish, and all the fellows sit up and take notice when he speaks; they know that he is going to tell them something worth while. On engineering problems you will have to go some to phase him, and that he will be more than able to cope with greater problems when out in the world, we are more than confident. RAYMOND CALVIN BRICTvETT A K 4 “ brick ' ’ Rams, 1, 2, 3 Captain Baseball, 3 Upstream Committee, 2 Baseball, 1, 2, 3 Representative Athletic Council, 2 Pickout Board, 3 President Athletic Association, 3 A model youth. V baseball player of note. A devoted admirer of a little girl down “hum. A most modest gent. A trusty ' under Eddie ' s icxfchige. A hoy of steady ha hits, but he does like his old T. D. A man who has done much for Textile, and above all a good old scout. PARKER GOULD BLAKE A K t lizzie Engineering Society, 1, 2, 3 Show, 1, 3 Handsome Lizzie, the beauty specialist, protruded from Cam- bridge to Lowell and took the Engineering course. Ilis first and second years, for the most part, were spent in his boudoir, on account of Lupe ' s teachings; nevertheless his third year has been entirely different. Alas, he has been led astray. He carries matches and keeps late hours. Seven nights in the week and twice on Sundays is his regular schedule, and he wishes there were more. Anyone asking his whereabouts receives the reply, None of your d business. Why this secrecy, Parker? In spite of the fact that he has gone into society, he still manages to get by Perk’s exams, but we wonder how. 29 THE PICKOU T 19 14 WILLIAM FRANCIS CASEY A K f “bill” Cotton Club, 1, 2, 3 Baseball, 1, 2, 3 Football Manager, 3 Asst, Show Manager, 3 Textile Show, 1, 2 Show Manager, 3 Everyone whose education has not been neglected knows “ Bill ” — (William Francis by request). He took up his practice with Steve in the Cotton Course — practicing to see how much he could stay away (so Steve says). “Bill” is what you might call a general all- round man. On the baseball field he shows good form with his perfect throw to second, and when at the bat is almost sure to push some one ahead a couple of bases. With the women he ' s a winner, and believe me, they all know him. He ' s rather partial to one though, ' cause quite frequently he sneaked off down Jimmie Street and never mentioned it to a soul. Alas, she ' s moved, and he has a longer sneak now, but that doesn ' t matter. An actor and manager, too, this boy from Allston, for he has managed the football team and the show, and has helped out remarkably ’cause he ' s right there with the warble. EDWIN COSENDAI A K $ “dutch ” Alembic Society, 1,2 Orchestra, 1 Welcome to our city. Three years ago this worthy descendcnt of the “beer drinkers” breezed in from Saginaw. On his head was a little round felt hat, in one hand a suitcase, in the other a traveling- bag, and under his arm his pet fiddle. Did you ever see such a change in anyone in your life? He s now one of the biggest rough- necks in the place and wears a fur growth on his upper lip which serves both as a strainer and to keep his nose warm. Ed took the “funny smell course” and can handle dyestuffs with the greatest ease. For a long time “us ’ cold Easterners had him puzzled, but now, well, try to slip something over on him. After all, “Dutch sticks to a thing till he gets it done, and lie will be a valuable ad- dition to the Cosendai Dye Works some day. JACK WILLIAM CRAWFORD t “DRESS SUIT,” “WARWHOOP”, “TANGO” (To be continued in our next) Football, 2, 3 Textile Show, 3, 4 Alembic Society, 2 “ Warwhoop” comes from that section of Lawrence known as “The Patch.” He first distinguished himself at Textile by his great ability to detect acids by their tastes, and for this discovery he was honored for a long time by the name of Tsitric Acid Sam. He has never lacked nerve during his course here, as he well proved one morning early this winter when he beat it hot-foot down Anne Street and introduced himself to two young ladies as Wai whoop Sam from Textile. Since he is theatrically inclined, he spends many afternoons, which should see him at school under the direction of Professor Olney ' s worthy assistants, at Keith ' s and other places oi amusement, “Base Drum always takes his pad and pencil along, with which he can make note of anything which will later aid him in the Textile Show. In spite of all this, Jack is well liked by all of his classmates for his achievements both on the football ne d and in the class-room, and wherever he goes after leaving school, he will without doubt make good in his chosen line. THE PICKOUT 1 9 1 4 GEORGE IRVING DAWSON o II “ PEANUT ’ Class President, 1 Class Secretary, 3 Engineering Society, 2, 3 Pic-kout Hoard, 2 , 3 You said a worker? Well then, we refer you to “Peanut ’ for in his first year he made Mech. a pastime. Math, a reel eat ion, and the way he juggled Organic Equations has got us blinking yet. In no sense of the word is George a grind, for those who have become better acquainted with him know that there is lots of pepper there, ready to be uncorked when the right time comes, and that with him is when his work is all completed. Every one of us regretted the loss when he was forced to leave our ranks in February and go abroad because of his health, and it is our sincere hope that lie may speedily recover and be able to fulfil the responsible position which awaits him. CLINTON LAMONT DORR A K J “ CLINT Engineering Society, 1, 2 , 3 Class Football, 2 From a small suburb of Boston called Malden this deluded soul has commuted for three long years. At first his objections to living “up” could not be explained, but at the Engineers’ outing at Jack’s camp the reason was quite evident. No boarding-house would keep him unless he paid double price. “Clint” as a student has been a hard plugger, and has always gotten by. His only display of anger was when Lowe mistook him for Fisher. As a propounder of deep subjects he has no equal. He has, however, never solved the riddle: “Why, if they singe a chicken, they don ' t shear it first?” RUSSELL TODD FISHER A K t “fish” Engineering Society, 1, 2 , 3 Piekout Board, 2 , 3 Capt. Football, 3 Football, 2, 3 Skull and Bones, 1, 2 Nominating Committee, 3 Upstream Committee, 3 As Ben Franklin drifted into Philadelphia with two loaves under his arm, so “Fish,” replacing the loaves with a couple of smoked herring, gave us a treat by putting in his appearance here at Textile. (The fish, we afterwards learned, were just to put us wise that he was from Gloucester.) Russell after two years at Worcester Polytech, realized the enormous field which the textile industry offers, and as a class we are glad he made this decision. He is a man who has stuck tight to his work, yet one who has been able to mix in many good times and still get away with it. In athletic, social, and religious movements in the school he has been a big factor, and the concern who finally nets him may well be proud of their catch. 31 THE PIC K 0 U T 19 14 HAROLD GILMAN FOLSOM “nuts ' ’ Alembic Society, 2 Manager Hockey, 3 Textile Show, 1 Class Football, 1 Baseball, 2 With the early frosts of September “Nuts ' ’ dropped from his family tree and continued to roll until the squirrels of Lowell way- laid him, where he was detained for a period of nearly three years. Harold stands for that type of man which is “optimism” personified, always happy, carefree, and — well, just the sort whom one enjoys having around. With the ladies “Folsie” is a decided success, whether it be at Hampton or the Oaklands, and although never attempting to concentrate he seems to have a pretty good time loving them all. His absence was keenly felt, particularly by the Chemists of the school, and perhaps knowing him better than those of the other side, we may predict success for him in any line which lie takes up. JOHN HENDERSON GREER, Jr. “doc” Vice- President Athletic Assn., 2 Football, 2 , 3 Alembic Society, 2 Secretary Athletic Council, 3 I p from Lawrence six times a week for two years this man carried a little leather bag which immediately denotes a commuter, until at last tiring of early rising, he decided to spend his last year in comfort and quiet: so he came to Lowell to live. During the first two years “Doc” was but little known outside of the Chemistry Department, but since coming to Lowell he has extended his acquaint- ance widely. One of his greatest hobbies is searching the city for new dance halls, and though these ,are almost without number, upon every Thursday evening “Doc” travels out to Drucut Grange and acts as sort of a guardian for the rest of us. During the past two seasons John has made a name for himself on the football field as one of the greatest centers that ever played for Textile, and though meeting many strong opponents, has always proved superior. With the same spirit which he has shown here, John can’t help but succeed, and will without question be a valuable asset to his employers. GEORGE SWIFT KYLE t ' Y “foreigner” Pickout Board, 3 Manager Football, 2 Show Committee, 2 y 3 Cotton Club, 1, 2 , 3 Football, 2 y 3 Skull and Bones, 1, 2 Asst, Manager Football, 1 From far down in the cotton belt in the State of Georgia came this follower of Steve Smith. He at once won himself into great favor by his southern drawl and habits, not only with his fellow students, but also with the fairer sex of the city, who would sit at the telephone by the hour listening to him talk. In common with the rest of the Freshmen, little was heard of him during his first year, except that he attained a reputation for attending all dances held in Lowell that winter. His second year, however, in- cluded an extended tour through the State of Maine, hunting and view- ing the scenery while waiting for the quarantine to be lifted. Because of his ability at slipper catching while at Keith’s, he has twice served on the Show Committee with great credit. His arguments with Steve Smith on many subjects regarding his course have won for him great fame among the Cotton seniors. While in school George has done his work well and should be able to make a great success with the mill in Georgia when he returns to it. T H E P 1 C K O U T 19 14 OLIVER FELLOWS LANE (Nickname condemned hv the National Board of Censorship) Football, 2, 3 Alembic Society, 2 Business Manager Piekout, 3 Textile Show, 2 Captain Football, 4 He came to us innocent and unsophisticated; an unadulterated product of Lowell High, but look at him now. During his first year lie began to acquire a knowledge of other things than the dyeing of textiles, and chief among these was the science of automobiling. The Flanders is his preference, and if you really want to discuss the matter with Oliver, he is only too glad to point out its many winning features. His greatest aim since a Freshman has been to pass Mech- anism, and although it still seems doubtful, he may fool them yet. Conscientious as he is to his school work, he has never failed to perform his religious duties faithfully. Every Sunday morning finds him holding that responsible position as collector of the con- tributions, while at night we find him holding a much weightier proposition. He. in company with the other chemist men, has been known to miss but few of the opening afternoons at Keith ' s and without doubt these frequent visits are partly responsible for his ability as an actor. Although always ready for a good time, he never neglects his work, and the concern with whom he finally signs up will have a faithful and enterprising young man. EDWARD ROBERT LAWSON A K t “ed Engineering Society, 1, 2, 3 Baseball, 1, 2, 3 Football, 2 Piekout Board, 1, 2, 3 Class Vice-President, 2 Hail to our friend Edward. He is a charter member of the commuter class, a strong advocate of the anti-breakfast league, and one of those daring youths who stares death in the face every morning by boarding a N. Y. X. H. IL train and journeying to Lowell. Ed is a very quiet lad. but for all that it is rumored that he has a speaking acquaintance with a few of the choicest Normalites. There are times, Ed. when we suppose that you must wish that you were commuting from Chicago. When Ed made his advent to this select class of 1914, he east his lot with Perk ' s army. He has been a faithful worker since his enlistment, and no doubt we shall some day find him at the pinnacle of the engineering profession. ROBERT WAYMIRE McCREERY “bob ' Cotton Club, 2, 3 Detained by some damsel who just couldn’t give him up in September. “Bob” finally broke away from the northern New York State district and joined our ranks about mid-year time our first year. Having exhausted all of the courses offered at Textile, he finally decided to try a few hands with the Cotton Cards, and ever since he has been asking Steve uncomfortable questions and attempting to bring more practice and less theory into the course. It is true “Bob ' ’ used to be quite a lady-killer, but a few months ago he came across a bridge, the style of which just suited. Alas, close by its side he found another, but he stood his ground and in a short time appeared the little sign “closed. So to-day we hail him as the conqueror, like Horatius of old. Regardless of all this “Bob” has been a worker at school, and with his knowledge of the textile industry Glens Falls will surely receive a boom (and possibly a groom) when Robert arrives. THE PICK OUT 19 14 FRANK ROBERT MeGOWAN “reporter , ' 5 “magooan,” “mac 55 Football, 1, 2, 3 Hockey, 2 Class Vice-President, 3 Pickout Board, 3 Mac is the class busy man. After he has put in thirty -four hours of hard work in school, he finishes up the week by reporting Textile news for the Courier-Citizen , selling books for a Boston publishing company, handing out tools to the night men two even- ings a week, and performing all the janitorial work in his home, which is in Lowell. Then just for exercise he plays football every fall and is a regular candidate for the baseball team in the spring. How he can do this and keep up in his studies is one of the school puzzles, but he certainly does it well. If any manufacturing concern wishes to economize, its first move should be to fire about six men and hire “Reporter” to take their places. GEORGE ALISON MESSENGER Oil “alison 55 Editor-in-Chief Pickout, 3 Alembic Society, 2 Show Committee, 2 Nominating Committee, 3 Secretary Athletic Assn., 2 Upstream Committee, 3 Skull and Bones, 2 George Alison came to us from the gay metropolis of Chicopee Falls with a rush that has never been stopped. He was never seen to take his time. The Engineers tried hard to make a nut man of him at first, but being a good mixer, he took to chemistry and has stuck faithfully to that side for three years. He has always showed a liking for the attractions which Mr. Keith has offered to Lowell at various times, and has a marked aptitude for getting what he sets out for, whether it was the aforementioned attractions, or something of a more serious nature. George has been deservedly popular both in school and socially and has been a hard and loyal worker for Textile. YVe feel sure that on the completion of his three years, he will be just as steady and hard-working for some one else, and with his ability to accomplish things he is bound to make good as a chemist. HERBERT MATTESON NEWELL t “herb ' 5 Cotton Club, 1, 2, 3 Skull and Bones, 1, 2 “Herb” came to Textile from Andover Academy and has never yet ceased to speak its praises. He spent his first year at Miss Shattuck ' s, and while there made a wide reputation for himself among the girls of the city. He holds a record for the ability of carrying on the longest conversations consisting of “sweet nothings 5 ' over the wire, of any man in Textile. It was during his first year that he made his only public appear- ance in a street parade in Merrimack Square under the guidance and supervision of the Skull and Bones. The last two years we have seen little of “Herb” outside of school, for he has attended strictly to his work. That he has been able to cut himself away from his social activities and concentrate his whole energy on his studies is surely a good recommendation. 34 T II E PIC ' K O U T 19 14 JULIUS ELLIS NEYMAN “sxeezer” Alembic Society, 2 Orchestra, 1 Julius is a clever chemist. If he were not clever, lie could not break so much apparatus and get away with so small a lab fee. He is also somewhat of a shark in drawing and spends a great deal of his time in the drawing room, partly in copying drafts of bolts, etc., and partly in telling stories and handing out advice to the Freshmen, to whom he seems just like a father. He is a persevering chap and his persistency has conquered many obstacles, which many of ns foolishly thought were too great for him. We predict for him a highly successful if not spectacular career. EDWARD RICH “tap” Alembic Society. 2 Orchestra, 1 Pickout Board of Censorship, 3 ‘ Tap came to us three years ago from his home in Manchester, X. H.. a frail little chap, quite conspicuous for his retiring nature. Oh! What a change! One could hardly recognize him now as the great big bruiser so full of confidence and aggressiveness. He has become somewhat of a leader in that he always hands his dye samples in first and is always the earliest of the ambitious bunch to arrive at school in the morning. It is said that Bob Sleeper was so pleased with his good work once, that he actually engaged in conversation with him. “Tap” is very fond of bossing those around him, and if it were not for his higher talents, we would predict that some day he would be foi ' cman of a gang of the pick and shovelers. GEORGE OLIVER RICHARDSON “reverend” Alembic Society, 1, 2 Class Chaplain, 3 Secretary Athletic Assn., 3 Take a man who is willing and actually anxious to work, and one also who has more than the average quantity of brains, and you can t keep him down. “Rev is one of those kind of men, and that is why he is famous as the shark of the chemists. He is exceptionally remarkable in that he can do his problems in quantitative with a log-book. Instructors must have noticed more than once how much resemblance there is between the written work of the rest of the class and his, but we hope they have suspected nothing. His one regret is that he did not make better use of his log-book in the Alath. final. It would have saved him a lot of work. As for the nickname, actions speak louder than words. 35 % j THE PICKOUT 19 14 JOSEPH WARREN SAWYER “huck” Alembic Society, 2 Piekout Board, 1, 2, 3 Show, 3 Upstream, 3 Nominating Committee, 3 If there ' s one man who believes Lawrence is all rig ht, “Huck’ ' owns that title. He will never argue on its good points, but rather on Lowell s poor ones, and he sure has the statistics right in his head that will show you every victory his home town has snatched from the Spindle City, from Prize Fighters to Politicians. He ' s the man we hunt up when we lack the eighth or ninth problem, and his brain has never failed yet. On the Q. T. we honestly think it is sold to some medical school to be delivered when its use in the textile world is over. As an associate editor he has been our mainstay, and throughout the entire publication, if our weary heads refused to work, “just tell ‘Huck ' about it, and next morning there would be enough reading matter to keep us busy for a week. As a scholar there is much wc could say, but you all know him, and the fact that he has deprived us of what scholarships the school has to offer speaks for itself. As to his future, well, if wc had his record behind us, should we worry? HAROLD BERTON TUCKER “tommy Society of Engineers, 1, 2, 3 A famous orator once stated that it was not ability that the world most needed, but reliability. If that’s the truth, Tommy must be needed somewhere. He reminds us of the advertisement of an insurance firm, “Sound as the Rock of Gibraltar. You can always find him somewhere in the school tinkering around some machine or talking with some Textile celebrities such as Charlie or Perk. He has one of those peculiar, mournful tones of voice that makes you think of home and mother, and it always gives you that not altogether unwelcome pensive feeling to hear him chanting away somewhere in your vicinity. Sometime after graduation we expect to hear of Tommy again, but not as Tommy Tucker. No indeed, rather as H. Berton Tucker, the great Textile Engineer. 36 J «£Tr i i iUrgistcr of 1914 H v r NAME Abbott, Fred Amos Adams, Arnold Bemis Blake, Parker Gould Bradley, Raymond Frost Brickett, Raymond Calvin Casey, William Francis Cosen dai, Edwin Frederick Crawford, Jack William Dawson, George Irving Dorr, Clinton Lamont Fisher, Russell Todd Folsom, Harold Gilman Greer, John Henderson, Jr. Kyle, George Swift school course last attended II Worcester Academy Berkley Prep., Boston, Mass.

Coleman Representative to Athletic Council 42 fbtstoty of Jhnetren jftftem As a conventional Class History this should of course contain, at least in part, a true record of the happenings of our class. Of course it is not absolutely necessary to have any real facts, as the so-called “ ' Freshman Class History in this book, proves quite extensively. Taking that most excellent literary effort which, beyond a shadow of doubt, makes the contention that the Freshman is the Nth wonder, a conclusive fact, as an example we might bull” along fairly success- fully for several pages, as to the merits (?) of our class. But, not being in the habit of copying the blunders of others, let us stick to convention and put down in Pickout history a few of the deeds of 15)15, which cannot help but show much more .decisively that the Sophomores are very much alive. From the day that the Class of 1915 became a part of the life at L. T. S. it has shown itself to be of the right spirit in every instance. The Sophomores last year were evidently busy in other pursuits, for we were left to our own devices from the start. We found that we had nothing to fear from the upper classmen and were soon sufficiently well organized to give 1914 a 12-0 trimming in the annual football game. In the flag rush, Wendell Harvey climbed to the cross bar of the goal posts, (incidentally to the heights of fame ) and snatched away the coveted flag from the fighting Sophs. We were well represented in both football and baseball in our first and second years. The Textile Show found the Class of 1915 quite prominent. Our Freshman banquet held at the Richardson Hotel proved a great success. Ask Farnsworth. The spirit that has kept 1915 in the running cropped up early this year, and we made things lively for some very unripe Freshmen at the school football games. On Field Day the Sophomore Class accomplished something that is unprecedented in the history of the school. The Freshmen were held 0-0 in football, and in addition to 43 THE PICKOUT 19 14 this the class flag was held secure against the rush of the 1916 men. Never before this had the second year class kept the Freshmen from winning both Field Day events. Excitement died down from that time until after the midyear exams. A few weeks after that awful slaughter, the three or four “live members of the Freshman Class (it’s a pity there aren’t more) paid a one o’clock visit to the Moody Street Bridge and painted their numerals on the rocks. As soon as the weather permitted, the 13 Club, a Sophomore organization, lowered the Freshman who had done such a good job painting 16’s a few days before, over the cliff, and with the same brush he had used in the first place he cleverly changed the numerals to 15’s. On Wednesday, March 18th, the Sophomore Banquet was held at the Waverly Hotel. At noon on that day, the Freshman Class President (one of the “live members mentioned above) was very cleverly seized and taken down to the hotel, but just as cleverly he made a spectacular escape to the police station (see Lowell papers.) Several other Freshmen were captured during the day to furnish amuse- ment for the Sophs, but not wishing to mar our assemblage with their presence, we sent them on their way. Our second banquet duplicated our first one in enthusiasm and success. Sturtevant, whom we were unfortunate enough to lose at midyears through illness in the family, came back and was given a joyous welcome. Everyone felt quite in harmony with our worthy President Forsaith as he gave the last toast, “May we all be on deck next year to carry the spirit of 1915 through the final stage of our life at L. T. S.” 44 NAME COURSE Adams, Floyd Willing ton VI Alliot, Eric I Carlson, Ernest Berger VI Church, Charles Warren III Coleman, Wesley Davis IV Dickson, Earle Ensign Sp. I Dimock, Dwight Leyerett Sp.

Class of jffinctcnt ptitmi Here ' s to the Freshman Class, Who entered mighty strong, And when every year shall pass, May we speak its praise and song. Let each one lend a hand To set up a spirit true, And by ' 16 let us stand, All the three years through. Bang! Slam! Zowie! “‘What’s the row?” “‘Freshmen probably.” This would be the natural question of anyone upon hearing such a commotion in our school, and that would he the more natural answer. For as all good Textilites know, the Freshman Class has demonstrated more vim, pep. and originality than all of its predecessors put together. The very first day of School we were enticed into the Students’ Room by a supposedly official notice on the bulletin board. There we were conventionally, though rather unceremoniously, introduced to our ancient foes, the Sophomores. Though our coming-out party seemed a bit unkind, we did not mind it at all, for it gave us an excellent opportu- nity to judge the calibre of our enemies. Our estimate was a very favorable one (for us), and as our later events have shown, was a correct one. A little while later we started on the record-breaking career that has won for us commendation and admiration from the Seniors, and fear and respect from the Sophs. The Sophomores challenged us to a game of football, with every expectation of administering a crushing defeat. In this they were sadly disappointed, for we not only held them to a 0-0 score, but continually kept their goal line in jeopardy during the entire last half. At the close of the game we adjourned to lose a Flag Rush, a rush in which the flag was placed in such an unattain- able position that it is doubtful whether we could have even managed to capture it, if the Sophomores had not been there to defend it. For a few months after that eventful Field Day we kept fairly quiet, studies and fraternities taking up our attention. Many of 11 s underwent rigorous “frat” initiations, which served to destroy the little conceit which does not rightfully belong to new men who have 50 T II E P I C K O V r 1 !) I 4 yet to win their spurs. After the initiations were over and the studies put in good shape (?), we set about to win those spurs. Our first move was the holding of a banquet at the Waverly Hotel, which was successful beyond our fondest hopes. Every man who set out to go arrived safely at the festive board. The Sophs did not attempt to stop us in any way, most of them not even realizing that we were holding our banquet that night. That surely was not onr fault, for we freely told them ahead of time, not only announcing it on the school bulletin board, but also in the Boston newspapers. Their laxness was probably due to the fact that we had previously caused them much annoyance by spurious reports of imaginary feasts about to take place. Once they were so positive of the date that they even captured our president, confident that the banquet would occur that night. These fictitious reports had fooled them so many times, that when the real date was so ostentatiously announced, they never dreamed that the event would take place as stated. Soon after the banquet the numerals of our class appeared three times in glaring red paint on the steep cliff overhanging the canal. It is true that the daring lad who risked his neck to place them there was later obliged to change them to la’s to suit the whims of the Thirteen Club, but every Freshman knows that they will be displayed again in all their scarlet glory before this book is published. On the eighteenth of March, the day of the Sophomore Banquet, the Freshmen ' s title to their spurs was awarded by the valiance of our president. His capture by the Sophs and his subsequent thrilling escape were the sensations of the city. For the way that Heney escaped unaided, after being handcuffed and strapped to a bed in a room on the top floor of the Waverly, took everyone’s breath away. He man- aged to work the ropes loose in some way, threw a fire escape rope from the window, and descended, handcuffed, in view of hundreds of startled spectators, through whom he dashed, unarmed, to the friendly shelter of the police station. After making explanations, he was freed from his manacles and was royally entertained by the entire force. The news of his exciting escape appeared in the “Scare Heads” of our local dailies, and was duly chronicled in the Boston papers on the following day. .31 — i Kegistn of I ' fP 1916 vs JJ ) dkF K 1 NAME Albrecht, Charles Henry Andrews, Henry Billings Baker, William John Barlofsky, Archie Billings, Howard Blanchard, Walter Russell Brearley, Earl Belmont Brinkerhoff, Herbert Winship Chase, Charles Alden Clark, Leo Roswell Colby, James Tracy Cubberly, Norman Purdy Cummings, Edward Stanton Dayieau, Alfred Edward Deady, William Francis COURSE SCHOOL LAST ATTENDE IV3 Dorchester High YI4 Hingham High IV3 Groton High YI3 Lowell High IY3 Concord High, IY3 Swampscott High IY3 Killingly High IY3 Newton High Sp.

COLBY 87 3(n jtttfmonam Ifctiroirk llmpUbg Steb GDrtaber lfi, 1913 It was with deep sorrow that the Trustees, Faculty, Instructors, and Student Body of the Lowell Textile School learned of the death of Fenwick Umpleby. Although very few r of us as students were personally acquainted with Mr. Umpleby, his name has never ceased to be men- tioned as a great benefactor of our school. Air. Umpleby was born in Yorkshire County, England, and w r as a graduate of Yorkshire College. Later he attended Leeds University, from which he was graduated in 1884. He also held diplomas from the International Correspondence School of Scranton, Pa., and from the Sheldon School of Chicago, 111. He was awarded gold and silver medals for his distinguished ability in designing, and was a member of both the National Cotton Manufacturers’ Association and the American Cotton Manufacturers’ Association. After several years of practical work he came to Lowell in the year of 1897, where he was given charge of the Textile Designing at the school, which w r as then situated in the Parker Block on Middle Street. In September 1907, he was given charge of the Power Weaving together with the Design Department. He served for some years as a member of the faculty and his resignation, w r hich came in August, 1910, was keenly felt. He at that time accepted the principalship of the Bradford- Durfee Textile School in Fall River, which position he had filled with efficiency until the time of his death. 89 Class of 1915 Hotoell Ccjrtilc §j djool aiumnt association ©rjtam ctj at tljr banquet of tl)c Class of 1900 Officer Robert L.

PEABODY HENRY H. DOVER SAMUEL PERLMAN DEADY 97 Cotton €ar £ o athletics The football situation at the school is one which is open to much discussion. Whether we should support a football team or not is the question which arises in most of our minds. The spirit shown by the few men who go out for the team is indeed to be commended, while that shown by the rest of the student body is much to be lamented. It would make little difference at the present time whether there were three hours or only one devoted to practice each day. The number of men with spirit enough to come out for the team would more than offset the extra time spent upon practice. This year there were times when as many as eighteen men reported for practice, but most of the time the coach was lucky to have as many as ten, while there were times when even as few as five came out. There is no excuse for this state of affairs. In a school of our numbers, there should be at least thirty men out for the team, and until that many regularly report there is little use in bringing the matter of time into the question. Put the men on the field and sufficient time for practice will be found. More spirit among the student body and less fault-finding is what the football team needs most. Baseball also needs a boost. This department is much stronger than the football team, but there is still room for improvement, which would surely come if twenty or thirty men report for practice and appear regularly. Competition in practice as well as in the game is bound to bring out the best that there is in a man, and until we have competition, the right man for the right place is seldom found. The outlook for this spring is very favorable. We have a good coach and many of last year’s men back. There is no reason why a winning team cannot be turned out. Ice hockey was introduced as a branch of athletics this year, but failed because of the lack of ice. Out of the six games scheduled only one was played. A good team was brought together and there is no doubt but what ice hockey is here to stay. The most notable fact throughout the student body is the lack of enthusiasm and school spirit. Wake up, fellows, show some interest, and if you can’t go out for the team, at least show interest enough to watch the practice and go to the games. 100 C fitters Raymond C. Brickett W esley D.

H. 106 jfoottmll When the call for candidates was issued in the middle of September, a squad of twenty-four men reported for the first practice. Many of the men looked promising and the outlook for a victorious team was very good. “Hugliie” Cregg had been engaged as coach, and the student body joined hands with him to work for the full interest of football. He proved to be a consistent worker, but try as he would, he could not round out a winning team. From the last year’s squad Captain Fisher, Lane, Greer, Kyle, McGowan, Adams, Lawson, Goodell, and Crawford reported, and with Andrews, Gilley, Deady, Coleman, C. Mitchell, O ' Connor, Sunnnersby, Sawyer, and Dover as new material, all looked well. We opened with St. John’s after having only ten days of practice and suffered a defeat of 7 to 0. As the St. John’s team had already played three games of their schedule, the high spirits of our team were not affected. But as the season wore on, the team suffered the loss of Captain Fisher by an injury to his knee, and then the loss of Goodell and Adams, receiving similar injuries. The absence of these three men weakened the team considerably, but this was partially made up by the appearance of “Mai” Mitchell. He was found to be a half- back of unusual speed and agility and a great man on defence. Lane and McGowan started the season at end, but after McGowan was injured, Gilley filled the vacancy in first-class style. Coleman, Andrews, and Deady at tackle could always be depended upon to fight until the last whistle blew. Fisher and Adams, last year’s guards, played up to their usual standard until forced to retire on account of injuries. Deady, an old Dean star, and Dover, filled the vacancies, and although both very light, played a hard game. “Doc” Greer was the same stone wall at center, and proved to be the backbone of the line, and when “Doc” was temporarily out of the game, Dover proved an able substitute. Lawson played two games at quarter and then dropped out. “Bill” Summersby was taken from half to fill Lawson’s place. “Bill” panned out to be a hard, consistent worker, and also one who could use his head. On the defence his work was above criticism. 107 THE PICKOUT 19 14 At left tackle we find Kyle, one of last year’s veterans, putting up the same high grade of football. On the defence this point in the line proved almost impenetrable, while, on the other hand, when a hole was called for on his side, there was room for Crawford to go through. Crawford, another veteran of last year’s team, at all times worked for the interest of the team. Connors, a substitute for this position, surely did remarkably well for a beginner. At half, M. Mitchell, Andrews, and Gilley all had their turn. Mitchell and Connors, how- ever, had everything their own way, after Andrews was transferred to tackle and Gilley to end. Andrews and Gilley both played a good brand of football, Andrews playing a hard, even game, while Gilley a fast, flashy one. “Huck” Sawyer came out for end but proved a worthy substitute for the back- field, and deserves much credit for the spirit shown in sticking until the last. The men reported to practice regularly and all did their share of work toward making the team a success. The lack of such success can only be laid to the fact that the time for practice was far too short to develope anything like team-work. Signed, Russell T. Fisher, Captain Our last season’s record is as follows: St. John’s 7, Textile 0 St. John’s football team defeated the Textile eleven on the campus October 8th. Although the first game of the season, Coach Cregg was more than satisfied with the showing made by the boys. Lawson at quarterback carried the ball on several occasions for material gains, and had complete control of the game at all situations. Andrews at left halfback figured con spicuously both on defence and offence. The only score of the game came in the first period, after three minutes of play, when Devlin, St. John’s husky halfback, carried the ball over Textile’s goal line. He also kicked the goal, thus making the entire score of the game. 110 THE PICKOUT 10 14 Groton 12, Textile 0 Textile was defeated by Groton School on October 15th, at Groton, by a score of 12 to 0. This game, we may easily say, was lost by costly fumbles on the part of the Lowell backs. Twice in the first quarter the Groton forwards pounced on the fumbled ball and took a com- manding lead; touchdowns resulted both times. After the second period, which completed Groton’s scoring. Textile took a brace and the rest of the game found the Academy boys on the defence. Haverhill High 14, Textile 0 Textile traveled to Haverhill, only to be defeated by the down- river boys by a score of 14 to 0. Both teams were equal in weight and in speed, while Textile proved the stronger on the defence. The touch- downs were made in the second and last periods, the first by Reed and the second by Gilroy. The first and third periods proved but a game of see-saw with the ball at all times nearly in the center of the field. For Textile Summersby at quarter and Mitchell at half played the best game, while Reed at full and Gilroy and right half proved to be the Haverhill stars. The Textile team was strongly supported by a large crowd of rooters, and were led in their cheers by Messrs. Sturte- vant, Harvey, and Kirby. Textile 0, M. I. T. 0 This game proved to be one of the most hotly contested football games played on the school campus for some years. Every period was bitterly fought out, and many spectacular plays were pulled off. Tex- tile outplayed their opponents but lacked the necessary punch to place the ball behind the goal-posts. In the first half, at least upon three occasions, it looked as though Textile would score, but each time the visitors’ line stiffened and held firm. The last two periods the Boston team played much better ball, and although outplayed, put up a game fight. Cushing Academy 35, Textile 0 On Saturday, November 1st, the school team journeyed to Ash- burnham and received the drubbing of the season. Textile was greatly outweighed by the opponents, averaging twenty pounds lighter per 111 THE PICKOUT 19 14 man. In spite of this fact Textile played good football, considering the circumstances. At the beginning of the contest Textile held their heavy opponents well, but before the second period was over, Cushing had scored four touchdowns. Only one additional tally was made after this. Textile threatened the opposing goal line several times and had Cushing on the run for the last ten minutes of play. Textile 0, Lawrence Academy 0 On November 5th Textile and Lawrence Academy fought to a finish a game ending in a scoreless tie. Textile missed several chances to score on her opponents and threatened the Lawrence Academy goal line in every period of the game. But the same old necessary punch was lacking. The Academy eleven was in evidence on two occasions, although the fifteen-yard line was as far as they could push the pigskin. Each time that the visitors threatened, the Textile line tightened, and threw the Lawrence backs in confusion by their stonewall front. The game ended with the ball on Lawrence Academy ' s five-yard line, and from all appearances two more rushes would have given Textile the victory. The playing of Greer at center and Lane at end were easily the features of the game. Tilton 6, Textile 0 Textile was defeated by the strong Seminary team in the last game of our 1913 season. This game proved to be one of the most interesting contests on the schedule, as the outcome was kept in doubt until the last few minutes of play, when Tilton finally pushed the ball over. For the greater part of the game the ball was in neutral territory continually changing hands. When the score finally did come, it was through a series of trick plays, which had our forwards well baffled. Textile was handicapped by the absence of McGowan and Captain Fisher, who were forced to watch the activities from the side lines. 112 Sophomore Football Team Freshman Football Team Raymond C.

The Freshmen are taking a very active interest and many good men are developing from that class. On March 2nd the first call for candidates was made, and over twenty-five men reported that afternoon for indoor practice in the gymnasium. Raymond Brickett is this year’s captain and will again hold the position of the first-string pitcher for Textile. For two seasons past he has pitched for us and previous to that time attracted much attention by his performances on the champion Haverhill High team. Carlson of last year’s team is again out for third base, which position he so ably filled in the 1913 lineup. He is showing very good form for so early in the season, and with practice ought to play his position better than ever. O’Brien and Lawson complete the infield veterans, and both look good for a position this year. Casey is the only member of the outfield who is still in school, and though at present on the shelf with a broken finger, he should be able to start the season in good shape. For catchers, A. Adams, one of last year’s men, shows promise of developing into the varsity type, while Mehlman and McGowan are both out for the same position. For first base there still remains that same old question mark. We are looking towards Sturtevant, a last year’s Lowell High twirler, and O’Connor, another member of the freshman class, to greatly assist Brickett in the box. Johnson is again coaching the team and is very well pleased with the number and ability of the men out for practice. With the help of the old men he anticipates turning out such a team as Textile has not seen for many years. Manager Fred Abbott should be complimented on the extra good schedule which he has prepared, dividing home games and trips very evenly. The arrangement is ideal, starting with the easiest games and gradually increasing until the final, which is the Holy Cross ’17 game. In order to turn out a winning team we should have the support of the entire student body for at least all of the home games. Let us, then, as students show our appreciation to Manager, Captain, and Team by being present. 116 Johnson Lawson Plummer Carlson Shedd Abbott Bennett O’Brien Brickett Davieau Cleary Casey Ford baseball Ceam, 1913 Cleary, ' 13, e.

Adams, ’14 1913 Resume The first call for candidates for the baseball team was issued early in March, and although the campus was hardly in condition to excite much baseball fever, nearly fifty candidates reported. In looking down through the line it was found that five of last year’s veterans were still in the lineup. These men were Captain Davieau, Cleary, Casey, Lawson, and Brickett, who formed a nucleus about which our coach began to build his team. With Brickett and Davieau we had little to worry about from the delivery standpoint, while Cleary completed the battery on the receiving end most favor- ably. The preliminary work in the gymnasium, though seeming merely trivial at the time, more than served its purpose of getting the kinks out of arms and preparing the squad for outdoor work. With the dry campus came the real hard drilling, which under Coach Johnson’s careful supervision resulted in a consistent and well- balanced team. The batting eye of both Davieau and Brickett proved so efficient that it was thought advisable to keep both in the game at all times; consequently they held down steady positions either in the pitcher ' s box or the center garden. In right field we had the old reliable Casey, while left field was taken care of by Ford, Ross, and Plummer. In the infield we experienced the same old trouble in finding or developing a man to cover the initial sack. Among all the candidates there was not one experienced in playing first base; so after much deliberation Coach Johnson picked Shedd for this important position. Shedd proved to be a hard, conscientious worker, who developed rapidly, and soon overcame the disadvantages experienced by a man in a strange O’Brien, ’15, 2b. Lawson, ’14, s. s. Carlson, ’15, 3b. Bennett, ’13, 1. f. Ross, ’14 Folsom, ’14 118 THE PIC Iv 0 V T 19 14 position. The season was still young when he struck his gait and put up a very creditable article of baseball. O’Brien made good at second, while Lawson showed more than one Textile rooter that he was there. Carlson stuck tight to the dizzy corner, and with this combination we may well brag of a stone-wall infield which took care of everything that came their way. Although Cleary had always played in the outfield, he developed, under the careful instruction of the coach, into a catcher of first-class calibre. Among the most prominent substitutes were Folsom and A. Adams. The former served as a utility man in the infield, while the latter was of the greatest benefit in helping Cleary at the catching end. Both of these men took many a hard bump, but stuck to the game and helped to turn out a team which was indeed a credit to the school. iagt geav’g Record To look back over last year’s record we find that the team won four out of the ten games played. The per cent in this case is some- what deceptive, since at least three of the six lost should easily have been Textile victories. The first game on the L. T. S. baseball schedule for 1913 was can- celed on account of rain. Both team and student body were disappointed as the Cambridge nine promised to be worthy rivals for an opening contest. Middlesex School 3, Textile 10 This was the first game played, and by its decisive score of 10 to 3 the Textile team showed its superiority over the Concord aggregation. The game was closely contested up to the fifth, at which time the home team put over some clean-up work which settled the game beyond any doubt. The big feature of an otherwise ragged game was the star twirling of Captain Davieau and Brickett. Both Lowell pitchers showed good form and were a source of delight to the Textile students. The fielding on both sides was very poor, but excuse could be found for this, in that the weather was bad and that the game was the first of the season. St. Anselm’s 3, Textile 1 On April 12th the St. Anselm team from Manchester, New Hamp- shire, journeyed to Lowell and took a fall out of Textile to the tune of 3 to 1. It was a very closely contested game all the way through, 119 THE PICKOUT 19 14 marked by brilliant plays on both sides. St. Anselm’s had a strong team, but had it not been for an unlucky fourth inning, the school team would have been victorious. Davieau held his opponents scoreless for three innings. In the fourth, two lucky hits followed by an error and a stolen base spelled the bench for the pitcher and defeat for Textile. Brickett, who re- lieved the captain, held the Manchester boys scoreless throughout the rest of the game, which because of darkness was cut down to seven innings. Although the score showed a trimming for the School, there was little choice between the two teams, and students and coach were well pleased with the contest. Lawrence Academy 11, Textile 10 On April 23rd, Lawrence Academy trimmed Textile on the school field, by the close score of 11 to 10. The score shows the game as it was, a hard, close-fought battle. The lead see-sawed back and forth with the victory never apparent until the end. Brickett started the game for Textile and by means of passes, errors, and slow fielding, the Groton boys scored four runs in the opening of the game. Davieau then went on the slab, and the L. T. S. team plugged away determinedly until the eighth inning, when they succeeded in taking the lead. It was not for long, however, for in the ninth, Lawrence Academy pushed over two more runs and won the game. After the big blow-up in the first inning, the home team played good, steady ball. Davieau pitched re- markable ball and was ably received by Cleary, who also starred at the bat. Hamilton, of the opponents, also shone in both the receiving end and with the stick, scoring a homer which drove in a run and decided the game. Lowell New England League Team 18, Textile 0 Although not according to the schedule, April 25th was declared a half-holiday, and nearly the entire student body crossed the city to Spaulding Park to watch the League players wield the white-wash brush. Well, take a slant at the score, fully convincing yourself that they did. Museum of Fine Arts 7, Textile 9 The Museum of Fine Arts of Boston sent their team to Lowell April 26th, and Textile, still smarting from their trouncing of the day before, put them through the gauntlet to the tune of 7 to 9. 120 THE PICIvOUT 19 14 Textile ' s beginning proved to be the sixth, for when Cleary came to bat, the bean boys led by a score of 6 to 3. But Charlie rapped out a clean two-bagger, which started the rally that did not let up until he came to bat for a second time and closed that period with a score of 8 to (i. The game closed after each team had sent one more man around the circuit. St. Anselm ' s ( , Textile 3 A couple of hundred baseball fans braved a cold northwest wind and endangered their eyesight by flying dust and cinders, to see the St. Anselm ' s team clash with Lowell Textile on the Manchester Campus. The day was anything but ideal for baseball, and the spectators were chilled to the bone at the completion of the game, won by the New Hampshire boys by a score of 6 to 3. St. Anselm ' s obtained a lead from the start, and although Textile had several chances to even it up, these were thrown away by wild base- running. Many errors were made by both teams, chiefly on account of the cold ind which blew across the diamond. For the school Cleary played good ball, while Brickett starred at the bat. The latter made three hits in five times up, one of them being a two-bagger. Davieau pitched well until the seventh inning, when he weakened and three runs came across. Textile 4, W. P. I. 1 One of the most interesting games of the season was played with W. P. I. on May 30th at Textile. The home boys went after the game from the start, scoring three runs in the opening inning. The rest of the game was fast and clever, with Textile making an excellent showing. Both teams showed good form and pulled off some fast plays. Brickett was on the rubber for Textile and his work contributed materially to Textile’s victory. He had good control and used good judgment in mixing his slow and fast shoots so that the opposing batters were at a loss to know just what to expect. The support was good, while the stick work of the home team was most opportune. Bennett and Cleary each contributed two hits of seven for their team, while Brickett let the visitors down with three scattered singles. Cushing Academy 7, Textile 0 On Saturday afternoon, May 3rd, Textile traveled to Ashburnliam and was defeated, 7 to 0. Although the opposing aggregation was strong, it is only fair to say that Textile was way off color, for up to this 121 THE PICKOUT 19 14 date they had been playing A-l baseball. Cushing found the Textile pitcher for nine hits, and with the five errors made easily, scored the winning runs. St. John’s 2, Textile 5 That our team compared favorably with the best of school teams of the State, was quite evident when St. John’s baseball squad played on the Campus May 7th. The visitors brought a strong team and proved worthy opponents at all stages. This was the first reverse sustained by the Danvers boys, and considering the teams they had defeated, the outcome of the game demonstrated rather forcibly the real strength of the Textile players. Textile won because she played better baseball and principally because Brickett, who was on the rubber for the winners, was in rare form. The rapid improvement in the work of the players since the opening of the season showed the result of Coach Johnson’s efficient training. Textile took the lead in the opening inning and was in front ever afterwards. Only once during the game did St. John’s really look dangerous and that was in the seventh, when two hits and an error gave the opponents one score. However, Brickett kept his head and held them tight after that. Dean Academy 8, L. T. S. 1 The boys traveled to Franklin only to be defeated. The majority of the boys seemed to be in a slump after their former excellent playing. The Dean team was in first-class form and walked away with everything. Cleary saved Textile from a whitewash by scoring a run in the eighth. Baseball Officials Looking for Game— s £„ LAWSON.

Why should the threatening weather cause the lanky center such displeasure, and why should he, known as the heaviest of sleepers, arise that morning with dark circles under his eyes, showing that his attempt to gain the much-needed rest had been a failure? Because this was the fatal Wednesday, the eighteenth of November, and the day set for the annual Freshman-Sophomore class riot, and more because the respon- sibility of securing a victory lay principally on his shoulders. Better that the team should lose all of the other games in the whole season and win this one, than to face a disgraceful defeat at the hands of nineteen hundred and sixteen. No wonder then that the thoughts of the morrow’s game had disturbed the dreams of Captain Coleman. Nor did he alone show the great strain of the approaching contest. Just about twenty-four other fellows who had been rushing their dinners and slipping out of school early that they might practice for the great game, appeared on the field with frightened faces and nervous hands and feet. The large number of ca ndidates had completely upset the calculations of Official Casey, and so many combinations of football suits were present, that it gave the scene a striking aspect. “Hunka” Townsend had a sweater which much resembled an up-to-date evening gown, for the back was lacking. “Ham” Harris appeared in a pair of baseball pants stolen from the supply-room, while Morrill of U. of M. fame used a portion of some one ' s union suit and wore them as stockings. Tom Harrington had no difficulty in securing a head guard, nose guard, shoulder pads, wind protector, side supports, knee and elbow pads, and shin guards, but found it impossible to find any football shoes which would fit his pedal extremities, and so he had to be satisfied with a pair of (I think they were tango pumps.) The players appeared on the scene at 2 p. m. sharp, and it was then learned that the officials previoulsy secured for the game had 125 THE PICKOUT 19 14 premeditated suicide by taking a New York, New Haven and Hartford train, and so of course all hope of ever seeing them was given up. A conference was then held to secure satisfactory officials, and both captains readily agreed on “Bill ' ' Casey as referee, which was a par- ticularly pleasing selection, because of his great experience gained in the Cushing game. “Coop” Lane’s name was mentioned for umpire, but Goldie objected since he doubted his competence, and Gilley, because he doubted “Coop’s” honesty. Nevertheless Oliver Fellows was selected, and McGowan was appointed head linesman A great crowd of spectators were gathered in the bleachers. H. Bachmann and N. T. Folsom with their families occupied the entire west wing section. Promptly at 2.49 Francis blew his whistle, and the Freshmen kicked off to “Butt” Goodell, who ran it back fifteen yards. The Sophomores then, by a series of end runs and skinned- knuckle plays and successful line massacres, made six first downs, bringing the ball to the eight-yard line. Three rushes more brought the ball six yards farther and it was fourth down, two yards to go for a touchdown. But here an unforeseen event happened. Now Umpire Lane had wagered a cigar on the game, betting, of course, on the Fresh- men. As he saw the game slipping from the grasp of the Freshmen, an evil thought crept into his mind. Why could he not penalize the Sophomores on the next play, thus destroying their chances for a touchdown? “But,” said private conscience to the tempted umpire, “is that the proper conduct for a Church Deacon?” He was in a quandary when the next play started. His integrity was weighed in the balance with a quarter’s worth of cigars. “ Sixteen-sixty-one- forty -one-twenty-three,” the quarterback shouted and the center snapped the ball. ‘Hoop, hoop,” went “Coop’s” horn, as he shouted that the Sophomore’s left-end had been offside. The cigars had won. This handicap proved more than enough to retard the Sophomores ' progress, and they finally lost the ball on downs The Freshmen attempted to rush the ball, but with little success, and the period ended with the pigskin in the middle of the field. Umpire Lane demonstrated his neutrality by explaining to the Sophomores how easily a forward pass might be worked through their secondary offense, and then warning the Freshmen to look out for forward passes. The result was that soon after the opening of the second period the Sophomores acted on “Coop’s” suggestion, and Captain Gilley of the 12G T II E 1’ I C K O U T 19 14 Freshman team intercepted the ball and carried it with him for a thrilling run of forty yards down the side lines, where he was stopped by a pretty tackle of Summersby, which caused the latter to take a short vacation. The rest consisted of plays, first by the Freshies, then by the Sophs, carried on for the most part in the middle of the field, and interrupted only by Casey and Lane when they felt that too little attention was being paid to them. The Flag Rush After the football game the Seniors rounded up the underclasses for the flag rush. The Sophs had a small flag with the class year printed on it, which they were desirous of suspending from the boiler-house chimney or the roof of Kitson Hall. However, a vigilance committee of Seniors compelled them to lower their high ideas and the flag, to a little above the crossbeam of the goal post. Wendell Phillips Harvey, who had won immortal fame the year before, was stationed on the crossbar, while the Sophomores below prepared to ward off the Fresh- men. Tradition states that the Freshmen always win the rush. Tear up the tradition, for the Sophs successfully defended their class numerals. Baker figured in several “almosts” and “Hunka” Townsend was prominent for his desperate attempts until sonic one thoughtlessly deprived him of his trousers and modesty compelled him to retire.

But certain it was that, had it not been for an eleventh-hour rally, we should have missed a great day. After all the worry, everything straightened itself out beautifully, and all the enthusiastic charges of our overworked Principal were able to sleep soundly the night before, their minds entirely at ease. The day was ideal. There is no use in attempting to describe it — not a cloud in sight, and not too cold. A large crowd of expectant students and merry instructors collected at the school at eight a. m. The “Governor Allen, the usual conveyance to the Martin Luther Grounds, being “half-seas under, as it were, on the river bank, we were forced to fall back on a more commonplace means of getting to our destination. One of the Bay State Railway’s largest cars was called into use. The “mob piled in, filling the car to overflowing. We went on our way rejoicing, through the Square, where we stopped long enough to wake the people of Loewll into the realization of our existence, (meaning that we yelled our heads off for about five minutes). Every so often the car would stop to allow belated “Up- streamers to clamber on — wherever they could, on the roof, on the back, on our feet, any place at all. The ride out to Tyngsboro left an impression of great speed (at times) and much noise. As usual with Bay State Cars, this one went very swiftly for a while and then came to a dead stop. This, repeated at short intervals, brought us to the end of the line about 9.15. When- ever the car stopped, everyone jumped off and indulged in a little joy prance. It was on one of these prances that “Herb Bennett dis- covered a way to blow the whistle on the back of he car; from then on 139 THE PICKOUT 19 14 he proceeded to make life miserable for everyone else. On our occasional burst of speed, a hat or a cap would drift away into the great unknown, but this was soon forgotten in the excitement. School yells and songs were shouted out with little regard for tune or throats, while in between times a full band from the Essex County School, imported for the purpose, regaled us with much music. When we arrived in the metropolis of Tyngsboro (which from the road appeared to consist of two stores with postoffice attached, and at least six houses), about two hundred and fifty feet of thick rope was brought out from somewhere, everyone strung out in a long, snaky line and thus the army marched to the recreation grounds, to the martial music of the band. The first thing that had to be satisfied was a much-heralded desire of the wool men to trim the chemists at baseball. Something slipped in the calculations of Eddie’s disciples and the chemists won 21 to 10. About that time some enterprising youth discovered that the Merrimack River was very near at hand, and about twenty sports (?) did a short turn as water nymphs — a very short turn, by the way, as the water was rather cool. All around the place was strewn the happy crowd. Different activities were being indulged in, according to different tastes, “Heinie” Bachmann getting a lot of exercise out of his favorite out-door sport, a game of cards in a shady corner. Right in the middle of a hard play, he was interrupted by the dinner-bell, and everything, cards, baseball and all, was forgotten in a mad rush for seats. Everyone was seated and satisfied. Dinners like that one occur but once a year — at Upstream Day. After it was over everybody seemed peaceably inclined for a while, but soon some taunting remarks led to a challenge by the Senior class to the Faculty. The instructors accepted and were mercilessly beaten for their bravado. Even with “Wild” Lupien in the box and “Lester” backing him up, aided by Eames, Stoddard and Van Doren on the bases, the Seniors overwhelmed their opponents 30 to 9. This contest awoke a spirit of rivalry and tugs-of- war between the Freshmen and Sophomores, which resulted in victory for the Freshies, and between the Seniors and Faculty, ensued. The Freshmen challenged the Seniors for the championship and were vic- torious, after a hard struggle. 140 THE PICKOUT 19 14 Everyone was quite tired from all the excitement and exercise, but this did not lessen their appetites, and when supper was announced, a second glad rush for tables followed. Everyone did justice to a supper which was cpiite as good as the dinner. When the meal was over, a happy crowd sat around and talked it over. Shortly after five o’clock a start was made for the car line, and at seven o ' clock, after a little session of harmony on the way down, a very tired lot of fellows got into Lowell, all agreeing that it had been a day without a regret. Every Textile man who had been loyal enough to attend the annual outing was proud and happy to have been able to participate in the success of a feature of the school life which, it is to be hoped, will never be given up. 141 IfoottiaU lEJancc jfoottiall ®ancc The record made by the 1913 football team will doubtlessly go down in history and should prove a source of great pride in the heart of every true and loyal Textile boy. Many ways were suggested in which the players could be shown the gratitude felt by the student body for their work and time expended. Many ideas were offered, such as the erection of a tombstone in the City burying lot, or the publication of an ode in memory of our deceased team, to be framed and hung in the library, but alas, all of these had their disadvantages. The idea of a dance by the entire student body was at last sug- gested, and when turned over to the nominating committee, was acted upon and decided worth while. The date was set for November 19th, but because of the Charity Ball, also scheduled for the same evening, out of sheer generosity and respect for a good cause it was voted that lest our social would draw from the other attraction, we should postpone our celebration. The enthusiasm of the school had not waned, so on the evening of December 17th, the dance was held and proved an unqualified success. The hall was artistically decorated with banners, while in the deep recesses and most secluded portions of the room one could find, if he looked hard (most of us didn’t care to) the past season scores, which our schedule had called for. Mrs. Eames, Mrs. Stewart, and Mrs. H. D. Smith were the chosen patronesses. Broderick ' s Orchestra furnished music, while Page did “The Hold- up Act” at intermission. It is not our intention to complete a list of the many beautiful gowns worn by our fair guests, but you will surely agree that we do well in mentioning one young lady tastily draped in a blue Parisian creation, whom Charlie just loved to watch. “Apologies, ‘Prexy,’ it was sort of mean to invite the Mrs. along too.” The second half was declared assembly plan, and even Sam had his troubles. The party closed at twelve o’clock, after giving a silent cheer for the football team. 143 1915 Engineers Kyle Coleman Sawyer Casey fertile Committee William F. Casey Harold V. Farnsworth Business Manager Asst. Business Manager George S. Kyle Wesley D. Coleman Joseph W. Sawyer 147 Cl je Cmtlc mo } The annual Textile Show was held in Colonial Hall, on May 1st, 1914, consisting of a comedy in three acts entitled “The Jack O’ Hearts,” under the guidance of Mr. Mahoney. The committee in charge were William F. Casey, George S. Kyle, Wesley D. Coleman, and Joseph Sawyer. There were only two members of the Freshman class who responded to the call for candidates, and all the rest had taken part in last year’s production. The play carries the story of a modern mix-up in love affairs, the kind that happen in the best of regulated families. The cast in- cluded the following: MARY HART (COLLIE), WINTER OP IIART, her brother, Dr. HART, her father, MARY ROBINSON, a friend of “ Collie ' s;’ BETTY DWYER, a girl next door, JOHN AMES, a young clergyman — a friend of Winthrop s, J. Gordon Townsend JACK BOTSFORD, an unknown cousin of the Harts, Justin Holt A BUTLER, Oliver Lane P. G. Blake Harold Farnsworth William F. Casey Ralph L. Sanborn Norman Cubberly The parts were well taken care of, especially those of Mary and Winthrop Hart, Blake and Farnsworth working well and carrying the leads. Much credit is due Mr. Mahoney for the manner in which he has coached the show for the past two years. He has had wide experience in this line and under his direction the boys do their utmost. After the curtain on the third act the floor was cleared, and dancing was enjoyed for the remainder of the evening. 148 The class of nineteen hundred and fourteen is soon to be laid on the shelf, but only from a standpoint of school activities, for we are now about to face that vital test which can only decide the real practicability of our three years ' work here at L. T. S. As the time approaches, we look with regret upon the day of the final handshake and “Good- Luck ' for this will inevitably spell the end of many pleasant asso- ciations and true friendships. Our future is now in our hands. Who knows what is in store for us? What will be the outcome of the careers which we so timidly started in the opening chapter of our school life here, when first assembled in Room 63, a rather mussed-up bunch of freshmen, our left shoes off, our coats inside out, and our ardor much dampened by the jibes of the sophomores. Had we been an organized body, we could have held our own with ease, for we numbered seventy- five to their forty. In spite of this large opening class, today wc call the roll to find but twenty-five here to answer, — a loss of sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in less than three years. One naturally asks why. It is not our intention to place on these pages a reproduction of an article so ably treated in the 1912 Pickout , where it was clearly pointed out that the present entrance qualifications for the school do in no way coincide with the work required during the first year. Without doubt this is one of the fundamental causes for so many men failing to complete their attempted courses. We, do, however, feel that it is a subject which is worth careful consideration, for it must be conceded that the present state of affairs is one which offers an oppor- tunity for improvement. If, on the other hand, the blame is to be placed on the individual for such failures, there is still much to be said in his defense. Our Principal of today is a much overworked man. His duties are without doubt so numerous that it is positively impossible for him to become very well acquainted with every student in the school. At the present time in many of our large colleges and universities, there exists a body of men, generally composed of the faculty, to whom are assigned a certain number of students, and to whom the students report regularly 149 THE PICKOUT 19 14 or by appointment. Such a council serves as a medium through which fellows’ ideas may be aired from the fellows’ standpoint, and as a means by which the faculty may become better acquainted with men who are well able to help decide the problems of college life. We believe that such a step in organizing a student council would perhaps help to eliminate this dropping off of our numbers. We ask then, why not gain the help of the faculty in this regard? Let such a council be established in the interest of the students’ welfare, which should be a matter of great concern. We know that the fellows would heartily respond and show their sincerity by coming halfway. The Special Course at Textile has for several years past been rnade- the brunt of much ridicule, both in cartoons and knocks. Without doubt such courses may prove a harbor for many a “Son of Rest,” but our present statistics show that this idea is far from being a firm and fast rule. From our total of twenty-five members we may deduct eight who have for various reasons chosen to be classified as “Specials.” Consistent reasoning must conclude that there is a far deeper cause for such a state of affairs than the mere indisposition for hard work on the part of these men. For the man who conies to Textile with little idea of just what line he is desirous of taking up, the present tabular view affords an excellent general course. For the man who comes with specific ideas, the present system is open to criticism. When an editor runs short of subject matter, he invariably launches out on the one topic “School Spirit,” and the reader invariably skips that portion (if students ever do read editorials, which we are very much inclined to doubt.) It is therefore not our purpose to bore you with this hackneyed appeal. We all know that we need more school spirit in Athletics, Upstream, Textile Show, and the Pickout, in fact, in every function in which each member of the school should participate. Let us, then, resolve to make these coming school years different from the past, not allowing fraternities or outside interests to infringe in any way on that which is truly due to our Alma Mater. We take this opportunity to congratulate the Alumni on the success of the Smoker held on the evening of October 1st, 1913, for the purpose of welcoming the entering class. Such an interest shown by the grad- uates of the school, is of decided encouragement to the underclassmen 150 T HE PICKOU T 19 14 and is of inestimable value. We also believe much credit is due Mr. A. A. Stewart in his bringing about two decided actions which have without doubt increased the school spirit, and which have brought the fraternities into a far better understanding with one another than has ever previously existed. He was largely instrumental in the Tri- Fraternal Agreement, which bound the different organizations from pledging men to their chapters before a certain date. This proved a great benefit, both to the societies, and to the individuals themselves, and it is our earnest hope that this agreement is here to stay. The second feature was the Rotary System, which provides for the even distribution of school and class officers throughout the student body. That this system may be fully appreciated and understood, we feel justified in printing an exact copy of the agreement here below: ARTICLES OF AGREEMENT Between the Three Fraternities and the Non-fraternity Men Comprising the Undergraduate Body of Lowell Textile School ARTICLE I. Undergraduate Factors or Groups Section 1. It is agreed that four factors be recognized in the undergraduate body, namely, — three fraternities and non-fraternity men. ARTICLE II Organization of Groups Section 1. The three fraternities, being already organized, will elect, when and where they see proper, their candidates for the elective offices as agreed to in Article . . Sec. 2. The non -fraternity men of the whole school will proceed to organize under the title “Non-Fraternity Men” and elect the neces- sary officers incidental to such organizations. Sec. 3.

They are to be instructed at the group meetings how to act. ARTICLE III Rotary System of Office Control Section 1. It is agreed that for (three years) the rotary system of office control will be in effect in the undergraduate body, as agreed to in Article . . . Sec. 2. It is agreed that the year shall commence with the 1913 annual meeting of the L. T. S. A. A. Sec. 3. It is further agreed that the principle of succession in office shall be lived up to in so far as is expedient (for instance, an assistant manager should be manager the ensuing year). ARTICLE IV N ominating Committees Section 1. It is agreed that a nominating committee composed of eight persons, two from each group, shall be appointed previous to the end of the school year. Sec. 2. This committee will hold office for one year, and during that time will meet as often as may be necessary to regulate the division of the elective offices and place in nomination the individuals to hold office as agreed to under the grouping in Article . . . Sec. 3. This Committee will organize by electing a chairman and secretary; the minutes of all meetings will be kept. Sec. 4- A full attendance will be necessary to transact business. Sec. 5. In the case of unavoidable non-attendance of any member, the group affected may delegate a temporary representative. Notifica- tion of the same to be made in writing to the secretary of the nominating committee and the representative to duly qualify by filing proper credentials. Sec. 6. It is also specifically agreed that representatives of groups on the nominating committee when indicating the individual of their group choice, made in private caucus, for the office as agreed to in Article . . . , shall be unanimously ratified without discussion. 152 T H E P I ( ' K 0 l’ T 19 14 Sec. 7. It is also agreed that all nominations made in the E. T. S. A. A. meeting ' s by the nominating committee shall be elected unani- mously. Sec. 8.

Unfortunately for himself, he had not spent his youth in the period of Compulsory Education and had reached the stage of “ Figgers ” when he was forced to hit the hard spots on his own Initiative. By continued rapid footwork he had managed to corral quite a bundle of the Green and it was his chief desire that Gwendolyn and Algernon should have things a la carte. With Alge we will deal. He, after having successfully survived the Dangerous Business of Being a Baby, squirmed through the grammar school and finally slid into the High School. Soon he found things not to his liking and after leaving at the request of the Faculty, was packed off to a Swell Prep. Here he did extension work on the Cigarette Habit, learned to distinguish between Ward 8 and Extra Dry, and became possessed of Abundant Hirsute Adornment, besides becoming quite a “Chicken Fawncier.” Now that the foundations of his Five Foot Shelf had been laid and a diploma granted with the aid of Providence and a Near Sighted Master the next move was a suitable College. After looking over the field, an institution was selected where he would get an abundance of Social Life owing to the close proximity of a Swell Girls’ Hall and a chance to develop Socialism among the mill Girls and at the same time pick up enough info to make him handy around Pa’s Real Estate and capable of running his Six Cylinder Ford in the richest town of the Commonwealth. Being safely installed in the Y. M. C. A., the Precious started out as a regular William Bromo Seltzer combined with the tact of The Only Other William all installed in the frame of a Julian El tinge. His glorious Mop was somewhat dishevelled and his general demeanor disturbed when the Sophs got through with him, but they couldn’t give him the K. 0. and he was still an Adept Adonis. With his Self Starter Conversation running smoothly he delighted in breezing about town, with his headlights always trimmed, on the lookout for “The Fair Orphelia.” By and By things travelled on the 155 THE PICKOUT 19 14 High without a Jar and he even got to know a few of the Ultra Bourgeois and went as far as buying Soda Cheeks and Front Row Seats. In a short time none of the Boys had a thing on Alge when it came to the “Eternal Feminine.” According to him he had them all on his list and knew the Blue Book from Preface to Index. His bluff was working fine until the Queens grew tired of his Second Hand Brand, and it was up to him to get a real Hard Hitting Rep. At a Tango Tea he got the call and with the Bases Choked came up in the Pinch; with three and two already called, he strove to Deliver the Goods, but the Ump came from Mt. Vernon and could not tell a lie, and he was counted out. Moral: There should be steps there. 156 THE The first meeting of the “I Should Worry Club was held January 15th, 1914, and served as an opportunity to legally organize a society, the need of which has been felt for many years. After much deliberation on the part of the assemblage, the name was decided upon which is hereabove shown. H. Sturtevant was elected as Sealer of the Cans, while Folsom received the ruling vote which declared him Recorder of the Fruit. A motion was carried that a card of thanks be forwarded to the school in appreciation for their acknowledgment of sympathy shown them in their late bereavement. H. Sturtevant then gave an interesting talk on the contrast between Theoretical and Practical Cotton Manufacturing. Following this 1.57 THE PICKOUT 19 14 Folsom entertained the members with his latest patter song entitled, “The Leaves Return in Spring, but the Nuts Are Gone Forever.” Light refreshments were then served and the prospects for new members were discussed. Justice Colt, William C. Wintersby and Boob McKary were talked over, but after due deliberation it was decided to keep the club exclusive for at least the rest of this year. CDttonal pointers Editor of the Pickout. Dear Sir : — We dislike to interfere with your policies in regard to the publication of the Pickout , and it is with great reluctance that we perhaps transgress upon that which is your business; yet there are many things which should be mentioned editorially, which are seem- ingly of such small importance that you would pass them over. We therefore feel it our duty to write you this letter containing a few sug- gestions, for which we hope there will be room in this year’s Pickout. Co-eds In regard to the Co-eds it may be said that their locker-room is taxed to the limit, and in the course of another year their quarters will be much too small. We would suggest that more lockers be provided at once for our fair schoolmates. There is also a rather serious omission in the routine laid out for the girl students, in that no gymnasium work has been arranged for them. We feel that for their development, physically as well as mentally, physical culture is of the utmost importance, and we are sure that, once this matter is brought to the attention of the faculty, such a course will be placed upon their tabular views. Along the same line we think that it would be a great thing for the school if a girls’ basket- ball team could be organized, which could go through a regular schedule of games with outside schools and colleges, such as Wellesley, Radcliffe, and Sherburne. We are sure that under the proper coaching, and with the right equipment, our girls would make a creditable showing. Course in Greek We have as last traced one of the fundamental causes for so many men failing to complete their course at Textile, and may truthfully say that a course in Greek would without doubt remedy the seriousness 158 THE PIC K OUT 19 14 of the situation. Although Greek is a dead language and most of us claim to be still alive, we believe that such a course would be a great advantage. As proof of our statement we refer you to the many formulae in Hawkes ' Algebra, or Schwamb and Merrill ' s Mech., where without a full and complete knowledge of this forementioned language, a passing mark is only a vague dream. And so on throughout the school, we come in constant contact with what we don’t know of this mother- tongue of the gods. Water in the Laboratories A source of great danger to students in the past, which has not yet been corrected, and which probably never will be, unless some com- plaint is made, is the presence of water in the chemical laboratories. As many of our readers are aware, water is harmless if taken in small quantities and not too frequently. This may be the reason why the faculty have never done anything about removing this dangerous element from the laboratories. As there are many violent and corrosive poisons also present in the labs which are identical to water, we appeal 1o our intelligent readers: How is a student to know whether he is drinking H20 or poison? Signs on the Machinery An improvement which seems to have escaped the attention of those in charge, possibly because of its simplicity, is the posting of the names of the different machines in prominent positions, so that visitors may know what they are without sending the instructors of the manu- facturing courses into their respective offices to look them up in cata- logues. Often and often in wandering aimlessly through the buildings, we have speculated at the uses of the various machines, and from the answers given to our questions by students running them, we deduced that they had often wondered themselves. Practically the only in- strument the name of which we are sure of is the loom, and after operat- ing one for two or three hours, it would have taken an expert mechanic to have even recognized it. Winding the Clock Nothing has ever been said about this matter before, but we believe that we express the opinion of practically everyone, when we state that it is an injustice to require Bill to care for the winding of 159 THE PICKOU T 19 14 the school clock in the General Office. Bill does an ordinary day’s work in keeping up the school lunch-room, carrying out his janitorial duties and in organizing searching parties for George Shea and his crew of Canadian help. To give him, together with all this labor and re- sponsibility, this extra charge, is simply rubbing it in. Athletic Field In closing, there are certain recommendations concerning the athletic field which we feel we should make. The bleacher accom- modations are much too small for the crowds which assemble at our athletic contests. We therefore feel that at least enough additional bleachers should be erected to accommodate the lady spectators. Another improvement would be the raising of arc lights upon the playgrounds. Under the present schedule school hours begin at day- break and do not close until sundown. Hence, the only time for foot- ball or baseball practice is after dark at night. Occasionally good teams have been developed even under these conditions, but we are sure that much better ones would result if there was a little light to see by. We suggest that money for these improvements be taken from the fund resulting from the accumulation of the gate receipts. What good is it anyway to hoard up the past seasons’ earnings any longer? Again craving your pardon for thus interfering in your editorial policies and hoping you will at least mention these much-needed re- forms, we are, Yours truly, 160 T HE PI C K O U T 10 14 TEXTILE PROVERBS A good seat in an English exam is more to be coveted than great knowledge. A rolling stone gathers no H’s. A pocket full of cribs is worth a bushel of learning. Fools do problems, wise men copy them. A problem book in the box is worth two at home on the piano. Charlie knocks once at least on every man’s door. God sends students, the devil sends professors. He that reckons with his slide rule must reckon again. He who is a Special Student may sleep till eleven. He who eats at Bill’s will eat more for supper. He who works in Dye Lab has but a scurvy master. Let us enjoy the present, we shall have trouble enough hereafter. Pass Designing when you please, Mechanism when you can. Necessity is the mother of cribbing. The hole in the locker invites the thief. He that is born of a mule must spin for a living. FOUR FRUITFUL SOURCES OF FLUNKS IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (1) 1st five-weeker. (2) 2nd five-weeker.

TEXTILE LIFE IS JUST ONE “BLAMED” THING AFTER ANOTHER— See page 1 68 165 Cejrttle §s� ttie IHjoto Here we have, Ladies and Gentlemen, the most marvelous and stupendous assortment of the world’s Mysteries. Gathered from every corner of the Globe at an enormous expense. Brought to your very vision for the most nominal sum imaginable. Just step inside and gaze upon the wonderful work of Civilization. See for yourself the marvels of the East, the West, the Jungles of Africa, the Frozen Shores of Nova Scotia, and the Music Halls of Harlem. Follow the crowds and see with your own eyes the sights that you have never seen before and will never see again. A spectacle to relate to posterity. For 10c, gents, you can see this varied assort- ment of Copious Curios. Just step inside and listen closely. On my left we have Big Chief Chalkhead, last of the Sioux, brought from his native campfire. Adorned with all the finery of his exalted position. Look upon him, gaze at his stoical features, a marvel of human flesh and endurance. Fast slipping away, held only by the magic suction cups of his rubber heels. (O’Sullivan’s) 166 THE NCIvO U T 19 14 Next we have George, the marvel B. S. T. D. — A. D. T. — 15. V. I). — P. B. — C. 0. D. — S. 0. S. — F. (). B. — E. T. C. — ,thc only living exponent of the Hesitation Speech. The executioner of that panaeeatic phrase, “Let George Do It.” A wonder, gents, and well worth the price of admission. Follow me now and sec the greatest Card Juggler the world has ever known. Using all the varieties from the Cotton Card down, hut his greatest feat is the manipulation of the Report Card. Follow him closely now and see if the quickness of his hand can deceive the eye. S. S. is his moniker, and he has it on the other Stephen in fifty-seven ways. On the next platform we display for your approval a vivid ex- emplification of the Architects ' Art. Mater Mac A., Sister Superior of the Holy Order of Handlooms. Lamp it, gents, notice its rotundity of form. Slant the bay window. St. Peter’s itself had no greater work of art. Without doubt the greatest production that time will ever see. And next we have the Human Grouch. Captured after a fierce struggle in the frozen wilds of Siberia. Unable to speak a word, gents, and still unthawed. A distinct type of humanity and a rare specimen in this age of voluptuous vocabularies. Now we have the one best bet. The Marvel of Mathematics. Without frills or furbalows but there with the goods. Quick at the start and strong at the finish. Look intently, Gentlemen, for he is diamond in the rough. Without a doubt the most rapid creator and destroyer of mathematical symbols that ever graced a classroom. And now we turn to the next exhibit. Something unusual and not wholly appreciated. Small in stature, but large in brain power. Let your gaze rest upon it in reverence, Gentlemen, for he is the illus- trious inventor of the Paregoric Curve. The only man to successfully navigate the One Lung Joy Wagon, thereby giving to the world his celebrated volume on Monotonous Motion. Follow me now and see “Life’s Brighter Side.” Jocular Joseph is his appellation and truly so. Brought from the wilds of his primeval habitat. Taken from his Shed of Reeds to Shuttle his way back and forth without a Harness until he became interwoven with the Warps of Civilization. Never was there Jester to a king that could compare with Joseph. 1G7 THE PICKOUT 19 14 And now we show you an importation from the Dutch. A marvel in himself. Able to stand alone and meet all comers. Brave and fearless after having served his time as target for the Roughneck Fu- sileers. The proud possessor of the most extensive collection of steins the profession has ever seen. Each and every one bearing the inscrip- tion, “ point to the Faucet .” Now to conclude the exhibit we will introduce for your inspection and approval the smallest man on earth. Harken unto the modulation of his voice. Powerful, mighty like the lion’s roar. Famed throughout the land for the veracity of his statements. Looked upon as the great Mogul. A wonderful personification of the pronoun I. The only possessor of the Perpetual Straw and an ardent advocate of the Rheum- less Chaw, and as Bill Shakes did say, “When I ope my mouth, let no dog bark.” And now, Gentlemen, take your time and look them over. Take advantage of the opportunity to see them all gathered under one roof. Never again will this spectacle be offered for your observation and edification, and now is your final chance. I SAY, DID YOU KNOW THAT — Perk almost gave a Steam course this year. Mother is spending his time entertaining the co-eds. Dave Hunting is sleeping yet. Cushing is never knocked in the Pickout. The Degree men are all suffering from conceit. McCreery goes over two (to) Bridges on his way to school. Casey, Lane and Greer closed up Dracut. Stoddard is developing a red nose. The Freshman Class was too cheap to have their picture in this book. The co-ed is looking for a man. Steve’s grouch is chronic. Andrews is cute. Lawson is lovesick. Farnsworth’s lip is deformed. The Sons of Israel are no longer a homeless tribe. Harvey Woods is the Freshmen’s dread. Church is still here. One can take Sleeper’s lectures with ease anywhere on the campus. Dick didn’t grow a bit during vacation. 1G9 Pcftout pti Ic $ag;c The Pickout Puzzle Page has for the past twenty-five years been run in conjunction with the yearly edition of the School Annual. This department is edited and managed independent of the rest of the volume; therefore there is no swindle or breach of contract likely to be involved. For this year we offer to the lady or gentleman returning to the Puzzle Editor of the Picl out on or before April 19th, 1892, the most correct set of answers to Puzzles below, accompanied by a 5,000-word article on “Why Sadie Wood should be awarded a T,” the following prizes : 1st — Choice of Pianola or an oil stove. f Meal Ticket at Wilcox Lunch 2nd — A combination of and 1 First Aid to the Injured Kit. 3rd — Choice of one rubber-set toothbrush or George Perkins Automobile. We announce with pleasure that our last year’s Pickout Puzzle consisting of a photographed half-tone of the back of David Hunting’s Head, and which called for a suitable title, was won by H. Folsom. The prize answer was “There shall be no parting there,” and in recog- nition of the appropriate answer the Pickout Puzzle Department granted Mr. Folsom a leave of absence for one year. This year’s contest will be divided into three sections: First — for picture No. 1, which we print on page 141, received by us “too late to classify,” we demanded a suitable title. Second — We desire to know: If hot air may be converted into mechanical energy, why Perk buys gasoline. Third — For our feminine readers we submitted this last estimate: Guess as nearly as possible what that funny little thing on Barker’s chin really is. 170 % )t $)CtCjl)t of — Custom : passing in the same mechanism problem book the fourth year. Dreams: meeting Charlie at the Waverly. Secrecy : the date of the cotton exams. Greatness: Louis Olney. Bluff: lectures in dye lab. Idleness: special design. Repetition: examinations in Steam Engineering. Curiosity - : sitting in the front row at Keith’s. Laziness: delivering a weaving mechanism lecture with a hat on. Thirst: buying a piece of pie at Bill’s to get a drink of water. Hunger: eating a sandwich on a Sunday night at the Waverly. Endurance: the notices on th e Bulletin Board. Indignation: Perk, when the insurance inspector caught him smoking. Stealth: Gumshoe Charlie on his daily rounds. Politeness: rapping on the door before going into class. Precaution: intercepting the mail when the report cards go home. Annoy ' ance: to find your locker nailed up when you are in a hurry for your train. Misfortune: to get a seat next to Charlie’s at Keith’s on a Monday afternoon. Courage: Asking Perk a question during a lecture. Difficulty ' : getting a diploma. Familiarity ' : engineers and organic chemistry. Forgetfulness: starting a machine with your hand in the gears. Generosity ' : Charlie buying chips for the noon-time poker players. Certainty: a pail of water when you are standing under a window. Patience: That which you have displayed by reading this page. 171 During Mechanism Lab Mr. Perkins asked McGowan to go out of doors and see how much exhaust steam was coming from the engine. A few minutes went by and “ Mac ” returned smiling, and the following conversation ensued: Perk: “Well, how much, Mr. McGowan?” Mac: “Oh, just a little.” Perk: “Is it steady or in brushes.?” Mac: “Quite steady.” Perk: “All right, that will do for today.” Exit. Mac (turning to Tucker): “Say, Tommy, where in the devil is the exhaust — I couldn’t find it.” Does the old Proverb: “It’s a long Lane that has no turning,” necessarily denote that Oliver must be crooked? 172 THE PICKOU T 19 14 HAVE YOU A FAIRY IN YOUR HOME Nuts: “Good morning, Neyinan, what do you think of the price of soap? Neymax: “Why, 1 never use none. SEES ALL! KNOWS ALL! Student asking Farnsworth about a kitchen mechanic he was seen with the night before — Perkins (interrupting): “Ask me for any information you desire. YOU LABEL IT Barker (in wool): “Pardon me, I will go and get some roving.” Gilley (waking up): “Oh, is Eddie going roving?” Heard in the Senior Engineering Class in wool — Barker: “I don’t know what you men are coming to. You can’t answer anything I ask you. Say, Blake, what kind of a job do you want when you finish here?” Blake: “A job on the National Board of Censorship watching the movies.” Barker: “We will continue the lecture.” If Gasoline will run a Ford, what does it take to run a Flanders? IF YOU CAN’T BE GOOD, BE CAREFUL Mother MacKay: “Please be cautious about looking on your neighbor’s paper.” HEARD THROUGH A CRACK IN THE DOOR Heinie (looking at his watch): “Well, I won’t hold you ladies any longer.” 173 THE PICKOUT 19 14 IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE Echmal (after trying to explain soap): “Well, I ought to know; I’ve used it all my life.” Richmond still maintains that hydro carbons are made from dead fish. Lillis explains that the metals when exposed to the oxygen of the air form chlorides. HEARD IN A DOWN TOWN LUNCH ROOM “Say, have you any mince pie like Bill Wilcox makes?” “Yep.” “Well, keep it. Give me a ham sandwich.” Bill Laughlin never left any trail of shining light after him when he departed from our midst; he did, however, leave a chalk-mark on Sleeper ' s desk which made it lots hotter for we poor suckers who were left than any passing comet could have done. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE FINISHING LECTURE Stewart (picking up a piece of leather belting): “Here we have a melton - nice goods - fulled - not too much - pardon me, a wrong- sample. ” NOBODY HOME Rich: “What shall I do next?” Stewart: “Well, go ahead and dew it.” Rich: “Do it, do what?” Class: Close friends and relatives of the deceased kindly pass to the right. SLEEPER S THEORY OF THE EXPANSION OF CEMENT On drying cement expands. Sleeper goes on to illustrate this fact by insinuating that a four-story house constructed of this material will within two hundred years’ time, with all probability, have expanded to at least five stories. 174 Selections jfT°m ye NEAK POETS THE PICKOUT 19 14 Over ’cross the river, And near its rugged bank, Stands a massive yellow structure, The best one of its rank.

Charlie said, “See here, sir, what do you mean by this, Don’t you know that this school is a place of business? I do not like to see you doing nothing in this school, ‘Hardwork’ is my motto, no loafing is my rule.” Student said to Charlie, “I thought it was no harm, No need of so much worry, nor cause of great alarm, I only took a minute to rest my weary brain, To forget about the studies that are driving me insane. The way you try to soak us, the way you ease around Is enough to make us wish that you were six feet under ground.” Now Charlie was indignant, and Charlie was quite mad To receive such an answer from the saucy lad: — 178 T H E PICKOUT 19 14 But white-lid is a wonder at keeping from his face The looks of rage and anger so common to his race. He only shook his head as he turned to the offender And, smiling, to him said: Wait until you get out into the wide, wide world, There ' ll be no loafing there, There ' ll be a worse boss, to hand you a frost, What are you going to do then?” There is a guy named Lupien, who teaches all the math, He is a big, tall Frenchman who rouses us to wrath By giving out such problems as we never had heard tell In prep school or in textbook. So ask the man who has taken it; he ' ll tell you math is Hell. And when examinations come we always dread his most, Who passes them successfully is eligible to boast. We have to bring our log books to nearly every class. To simplify the problems and do them twice as fast. So some who weren ' t proficient in Algebra or Trig Thought writing in the formulae was doing something big. Almost every equation you’d get on Loup’s exams Was written on the pages of those fellows’ Holman’s. But Lupien caught a man one day in the middle of a quiz. The first that ever had been nailed in an exam of his. Did Lupien go to Charlie and have the guy thrown out In sorrow and with much disgrace, as Perk would have, no doubt? No! Lupe just took the fellow, put his hand upon his head, Looked him square in the eyes, and unto him Lupe said: “Wait until you get out into the wide, wide world. There’ll be no cribbing there, The problem’s done must be fairly won, What are you going to do then?” 179 THE PICKOUT 19 14 There is a course at Textile we all did like to take, Nobody ever flunked it, surprising, but no fake, Everybody gets weaving, of cotton or of wool. The chemists and designers, or any old class in school. So Mister Joseph Wilmot is a very busy man, He keeps his jaws a-waving like an electric fan. He keeps the bunch a-laughing, he is a good old sport, He is a crack at repartee, and jesting is his forte; Blit spite of that, at fixing and weaving he’s a shark, If he was boss in some big mill he sure would make his mark. So, when we had our troubles we used to go to him To have him look at our looms, to put them back in trim. One day he came in tired, he was not feeling good. He had a look on his face that said that no one should Bother him on that day with filling or with warp. Now, it was my bad luck just then that my machine should stop; I fished around to find the cause and then went seeking Joe, I told him what the trouble was, he answered me just so: “ Wait until you get out into the wide, wide world, Joe Wilmot won’t be there, Your loom will break, you can’t even fake, What are you going to do then? ” Those who take up dyeing meet Bobby in the Lab, However, don ' t let him worry you, his noise is just pure gab. They call him now the Eagle, because he has sharp eyes And is very quick at finding unevenness in your dyes. He tries to be real grouchy, so don’t venture very near; Assume a pained expression and appear in utmost fear. 180 T H E P ICKO U T 1 S) 1 4 Then you ' ll make a hit with Robert, cause he likes to think lie ' s tough. Be good and kind and humor him, some day we ' ll call his bluff. If you forget to wash your desk or take from it the stock, Along conies R. R. Sleeper and marks it up with chalk. If there ' s anything that Bob dislikes it must be mounting samples That have been died by some one else and showed as your examples. Sometimes we safely did it. One day he caught me in the act Of cutting from a piece of cloth the sample that I lacked. The piece of cloth, it was not mine, which Bobby soon dis- co ' ve red. He said to me in a gruff voice, while everybody rubbered: “Wait until you get out into the wide, wide world. There ' ll be no samples there, ' Cept the ones you ' ve done, not ones you’ve bummed. What are you going to do then?” The Seniors have a study that takes a lot of time. The professor who teaches it has hair as white as lime. He is a busy fellow, he sort of runs the school, When anyone’s in trouble, see Stewart, that’s the rule. When we go to Finishing, we never must be late. We go, instead, to think about the breakfast no one ate. When in the lab you must take care to not make any noise, For Charlie’s listening up the stairs to what is said by boys. You must look out, besides, when there, to save your hands and fingers. For there is many a machine on which your limbs might linger ; Which cuts away the parts exposed and leaves in blood and pain, And crushes down and mangles up the stumps that still remain. So Arthur comes a-floating ' round, “Careful, not too much,” he says. Sometimes he leaves us quite alone for many and many a day. 181 THE PICKOUT 19 14 So we finish up the cloth we have by filling it full of holes, Stripping the gears, and snapping the shafts, and spoiling cloth by rolls. Of course we know that this is wrong, and naturally are ready For the lectures that we always get for twenty minutes steady. “Wait until you get out into the wide, wide world, There’ll be machinery there, You’ll be left alone, and may be sent home, What are you going to do then?” And now the time of leaving comes to us Seniors soon. And as we leave this good old school this sure will be our tune: “We hate to leave you, dear old profs, you’ve made some blamed fine teachers, And of all the things we leave behind you certainly are the features. We’ll not forget the things you’ve said, we’ll remember what you ' ve taught us, By referring back to the books we’ve got and the notes that you have brought us.” Mech and Math and Chemistry, too, we will not miss their presence In the future of our lives as mill men or as peasants. But we will miss the ones who tried to hammer them into our brains, But we shook them off as best we could, as a dog shakes off the rain. But now we do begin to think they weren’t too bad after all, For they always did their best to help at our each and every call. “So we’ll wait until we get out into the wide, wide world, We know you won’t be there, We will miss your advice, but that won’t suffice, What are we going to do then?” 182 oot B} , 3Ltttle i c )rnti of Hflg Breams I wonder and wonder if there’ll come a day When the final in inech I will pass. I wonder and wonder and hope that I may Put it over on Herbie at last. I see cams and gears every night in my dreams, I can do all the problems at home, But in Room 63 every time, so it seems, Formulae from my head start to roam. Chorus Good-bye, little 70 of my dreams, Good-bye, little 70 of my dreams, I’d like to feel that you are real. If you were mine, it would seem As if the world’s troubles no more should be mine. For a diploma I could then stand in line, So I’ll still wait for thee, tho ' in dreams you may be, Good-bye, little 70 of my dreams. There are hundreds of fellows that have passed mecli, There’s a chance for some more, so they say, So I’ll try through the years ’til my 70 appears, For I know that I’ll earn it some day. How happy I’ll be when my Report sheet goes home, Just to see that P in black ink on my card ! Never more grind all night, never more crib all day To get by that exam that’s so hard. Chorus 183 Z )t jfolltcs When the boys start in at Textile School, To learn to run the woolen mule, To tackle Mech with all their might, Whip Math and Physics in the fight. Explore the depths of Organic Chem, And in Hydraulics the tide to stem; Then the days begin to fly, And with the Fivers drawing nigh, They start the midnight oil to burn, To try with all their might to learn The gears and draft on mule and card, Why water is soft and carborundum hard. Why peroxide is written thus H202, And when dawn breaks, where the pieces go to. And deeper things that they should know. When profs their fatal exams do show. Of course, all come to school to learn, And not Dad’s kale essay to burn. But here and there one finds a case With many problems yet to face; To seek amusement they must go, And with some fair queen they assume to know, Do saunter down Lowell’s dusty streets, And pay at the window for two choice seats. For the simple life some are quite strong, But many take life as one grand song. On the Sabbath day, as a general rule, All trip off to some Sunday School, And with their voices loud and strong. Help out the chorus with their song. On Sunday night, quite debonair. Some seek the company of the Lady Fair, To try with wit and talk polite To put themselves, In, just right. 184 ' I ' H E V I C KOU T 1 ) 1 4 For eats they go to Gertie, fair, Or Mrs. Vincent does lier share. To keep the boys all feeling fine, And have their stomachs right in line. Of course the Textile Lunch is there, And even Champagne’s has a fare That some find quite handy at times, When trying to save their nickels and dimes. And when the ties of winter at last do part, The Boathouse opens for the Terpsicliorean Art, And those who have the extra dough, Can trip the light fantastic toe. The Frats, of course, all do their part, To help along the Social Art, With smokers, dances and such good affairs They strive to banish life’s dull cares. The Textile Show comes off in March, And then the boys, all done in starch, With singing and acting that is extra good. Put all their hearers in a glad, happy mood. The girls in frills, on pleasure bent, Can dance and dance to their hearts’ content. Of course O. C. gets quite a few, But that is after the show is through. In Steam, each year, there’s a big boiler test. With eight-hour shifts, that give added zest; The idea of course is to go down below And get the results, so the figures will show That the plant is efficient and running all right. And the job is good for a day and a night. Some shovel coal and some readings take, Others test smoke and weird charts do make. 185 THE PICKOUT 19 14 Perk, he’s the Boss and at five home he goes, But Lupe and H. Ball keep all on their toes, The results, when complete, to the office do go, But the workers themselves the results never know. When Upstream comes, ah, there’s the fun, A ride, two feeds, and picnic all in one, With Capt. Prouty along to manage the boat. And Onions, of course, as Official Goat. Then Profs and Masters their dignity lose, And cut and caper as ever they choose. The day is one that is brimfull of fun, And when it’s over all wish just begun. Our football team it would be great If half the boys who hesitate, Would go and give the best that’s in them, Play the games hard and strive to win them, And not hold back, criticise and moan When the boys fail to bring the bacon home. Now isn’t it strange that boys so good Go off on tares when in the mood, And rather than go to their downy bed, Start painting the town a fine Turkey Red. And so it goes from day to day Until the years do whisk away. Some leave before the battle’s through, To seek the foe in fields anew, But in spite of the turmoil, the struggle and strife The best answer one gets is, “Such is life.” And many a grad on their devious ways Looks back with a smile on, Those Happy Days. 186 Scfcnotoletigmmt ( FTER several months we now give the Pickout over into your ' 1 charge.

E. GONANT CO., (Auctioneers) OF LOWELL, MASSACHUSETTS The business of systematic preparation for absolute auction sales and the thorough and effective advertisement of such sales has become of as much importance in the successful liquidation of large, manufacturing properties as has the clearing house system to the national banks. The danger is more apparent than ever before of leaving the management of the sale of large manufacturing or other properties to the amateur, the layman, or the inexperienced. For one office to prepare and make the catalogue of a property for sale, for an- other office to advertise the sale, and for a third office to sell the property means disaster from the start. The following absolutely necessary for complete success in any sale must, in ad- dition to the dealer and speculator, com prize the actual user, the actual consumer, and the purchaser who buys because of home demand. A well grounded knowledge of and much familiarity with the property in hand is positively essential to the intelligent handling of the same for sale. The sale value of many properties is depreciated by indecision as to what to do, dilatory and waiting methods. The time to sell any property is immediately and at once it is for sale, from that moment it commences to grow common and become stale. Combinations not endured. Within the last century (thirteen years), the management of the sale of some two hundred fifty manufacturing properties situated in seventeen different states of the country has come to hand unsolicited — an experience without precedent. How a property should be divided, in what order it should be sold, in what man- ner presented to the public, and who should be notified, are not matters of opinion, but pure’y those of experience.

PICKOUT ADVERTISEME N T S The Textile Industry of the United States leads the world in the production of low priced colored cotton fabrics of great merit and intrinsic value for the masses. O NE of the chief contributing causes for the large increase in the pro- duction of colored cotton goods in the United States is the introduction of the “Fast Colors.” It was only a few years ago that consumers were afraid to buy colored cotton goods, especially in light shades, such as Blue, Helio, etc., because the colors would not stand up under laundering and exposure to light. Those who purchased colored cotton goods bought chiefly the dark shades in the hope that the fading would be gradual. One of the advantages of colored cotton fabrics, besides being light and cool, is the feeling of cleanliness that comes from the fact that they can be laundered many times and without injury to appearance. Many bought “white” when they would have preferred colored goods, because they knew from sad experience that the colored effects were unsightly after a few launderings. When Indanthrene dyed cotton goods began to appear on the market a few years ago the trade was naturally reluctant to believe that a really fast color for cotton had at last been found, but the consumers gradually saw the differ- ence and began to realize that colored cotton goods were really worth while, since they could be produced in colors which would practically out-wear the fabric. Gradually this feeling of confidence grew in the minds of consumers generally with the result that a large impetus was given to the colored cotton goods trade. The end is not yet, but already America leads in the use of Fast Colors; another reason why American goods merit the preference.

Eq ually true, the mill man who is using “Wyandotte” knows it has no equal, because it does what no other article can do. At first he, too, was somewhat skeptical as to its superior merits, but when he saw what it did, once, twice, yes every time he used it, his doubts gave way to surprise. He was truly amazed that such a difference could exist between Wyandotte Textile Soda and other articles often used for similar purposes.

The really big man not only knows what is going on in his own mill, but in all other mills as well. To do this he must supplement his powers of observation by reading a live trade- paper. Only in this way is it possible for him to get a general survey of the whole field. FIBRE and FABRIC is rendering this service to many of the biggest men in the industry and can do the same for you. Prepare yourself in advance for a responsible position by following the lead of the big men. FIBRE AND FABRIC gives you facts, nothing but facts, and in convenient form. It covers concisely, but thoroughly, every branch of the trade from the raw stock to the finished goods, and the marketing of these goods. In it are special features to be found in no other textile paper. These are written by experts and are above all, practical. Its weekly market reports keep you posted on the values of textile products, by-products and sup- plies. Its editorials make you familiar with the deeper problems of theindustry. Its Department of Textile Information, the Mechanics Corner, and the monthly Dyeing and Finishing Supplement contain matter invaluable for future reference as well as material which will aid you in your present work.
