To most of us it seems almost inconceivable that four full years have passed since we first entered the gates of the school and with a feeling of pride we look back upon those years as being the ones which will be of most value in our careers. When we assembled for the first time we were indeed a motley group of fellows. Our ranks were filled with men from every part of the globe, but we were all in- stilled with a glowing spirit of enthusiasm and a firm desire to make the most of our course at Textile. After we had registered we collected in the assembly hall, where President Eames delivered a speech of welcome. He outlined what four years at L. T. S. would mean to us and thoroughly convinced us that our path would certainly not be one of roses. A very serious and austere Senior next spoke to us, and said that we were expected to co-operate to our utmost with the upper classmen, who would in turn do their best to help us with any of our work and problems. He touched upon football, its prospects for the coming season, and urged every new man to try out for the team. Our next speaker was an illustrious Sophomore, and he seemed to be thoroughly convinced that the class of 1923 was the one and only class that had ever entered Textile. He read a set of rules describing the way in which we were supposed to conduct ourselves on, or about, the campus, and informed us that we would be compelled to wear the prescribed frosh bonnet at all times. This later proved to be an idle threat, because the bonnets were not given us, and we were allowed to use our own discretion in the choice of headgear. After this speech he told us that we were about to be set upon by a fiendish tribe of barbarians, thirsting for blood. Disorganized and encamped on unfamiliar ground as we then were, we had to surrender to a force much our inferior in num- bers. We laughed as we took off our shoes, rolled up our trousers and turned our coats inside-out. We still looked pleasant as we trotted around the pebbly driveway and out onto Moody Street. At the bridge some of us, following the advice of upper- classmen, broke ranks and fled. The attempt was not concerted, so it failed; but it was the first show of spirit from the class. The remainder of the tour was con- ducted at the Sophomores ' pleasure. At Merrimack Square, Rollins, who was des- tined to become our president, was made to crawl up onto Page ' s clock and deliver an oration. This was too much for our oppressors, so they called it a day and let us go. That day was the last appreciable triumph of the Sophomores. We quickly organized and the first issue of the Text spoke of us in this manner — The upper classmen have been very favorably impressed by the entering class. It is made up 23 THE PICKOUT 1924 of men who will be a distinct credit to the school in the days ahead. This was in- deed nattering, but it gave us added courage and inspiration. Our first act of hostility against the oppressors was conducted under the shades of night. Upon Textile Rock, a large stone which juts up from the middle of the river bed below the bridge, had been painted the numerals 1923, intended to perpetuate the fame of that illustrious class. One morning it was discovered that the last digit of the number had been changed to a 4. The rock was now dedicated to the fame of 1924. Several times the digit was changed back to a 3, but only to be altered again within twenty -four hours. Affairs reached a crisis when a daring Soph was waylaid in the river bed one night and punished for his audacity. The result was the rise of the terrible Thirteen Club within the Sophomore class. The first act of this mysterious organization was to parade several Freshmen down Merrimack Street one evening, clad in pink pajamas. The worst sufferer that night, however, was the City of Lowell, as the city hall was sold by the victims for fifteen dollars. It was now apparent to us that there had been enough of this secret, under- handed warfare, so we set about to show our superiority in an open and conclusive manner. At Textile Night we carried off all of the class honors, although the Sophs succeeded in defeating us at basketball. The inter-class football series was our next opportunity to make ourselves known. Already we had defeated the Sophs and under the guidance of Jeff Moore we had tied the Seniors. On December 13, we met the Seniors again in a game that made us champions. By this time we had chosen our class officers for the year. Phil Brown was elected president; Charlie Field, vice-president; Jeff Moore, secretary; and Al Mitchell, representative to the Executive Council. Due to their able super- vision the class banquet was put over under the very noses of the Sophs. It was held December 17, in Grafton Hall, and will long be remembered. Flaggie was the toastmaster, and the class prophecy was given by Rollins. Mr. Winkfield was one of our honored speakers. The banquet was followed by a triumphal pro- cession to Merrimack Square where we disbanded. Soon the dreaded midyears descended relentlessly upon us and, like many another plague, claimed many of our number. The majority of us survived, how- ever, and our first term was over. In the early part of our second term the annual Textile Show took place, and many of our number had leading roles. These men were Ham Brigham, Kew- pie Hall, Jim Savery, Ev Skinner, Flaggie, and Newt Hardie. On Upstream Day we won the tug-of-war which proved to be our last contest with the Sophs. Newt Hardie was injured in one of the contests, but was right on the job again before the day was over. We hit the final exams with a bang and ended our first year in a glorious manner. 24 THE PIGKOUT 10 24 Sophomore Days: When we returned in the fall we felt, that we had certainly earned our new and higher position of esteem among our fellow students. This year it was our turn to do the honors, and we certainly made ourselves awe-inspiring and overwhelming Sophomores. We opened wide the doors of L. T. S. for the Freshmen and gave them the best possible welcome to this, their Alma Mater. They appeared to be an extraordinarily, green group of individuals, so we took upon ourselves the task of conducting them about Lowell, as they should be conducted. We gave our orders quickly, and soon they stood before us arrayed in their small caps and with their wide webbs and full-f ashioned hosiery in full view. After a couple of turns around the courtyard we took them to Merrimack Square, without trouble or in- terruption of any kind. A few weeks later a battle royal took place between the Frosh and members of our far-famed class. One dark night they conceived the idea of capturing our president and inflicting some sort of punishment upon him, but their little plan was intercepted, and we met them hand-to-hand in the open field opposite the school. They were quickly subdued and in the process many of their number were horribly maimed and disfigured. The interclass football games next claimed our attention, and here again we upheld our prestige as warriors bold. Time and time again our men plunged through the Freshman line for touchdowns and when the final whistle had blown we were the victors by a score of 4-t-O. We were not given an opportunity to meet any of the other classes upon the gridiron, so we rightfully claimed the cham- pionship of the school. Kewpie Hall was deprived of a few valuable teeth in that particular game, so the personal appearance of our team was somewhat marred. As the days grew shorter, and the leaves began to fall from the trees, our fellows settled down to real work. Eight-weekers were a new experience to be sure, but we did very well in all of them, and our morale was greatly strengthened. It was now that we realized that Steam, T. C. and D. and the rest of the dreaded Sophomore subjects were not the awful ordeals that the upper classmen had told us about. Billeted, the 1922 Textile Show, was presented at the Colonial Theatre on the evening of February 21. We were well represented in this production and the following of our classmates participated: Hardie, Rollins, Brigham, Feldstein and Flagg. By this time we had chosen our class officers for the year. Rollins was chosen president; Lewis, vice-president; Rivers, secretary; and Brigham, representative to the Executive Council. Soon we were again exposed to the terrors of mid-years, but they passed quietly, and we came through unscathed. 25 THE PICKOUT 1924 It was during this year that the annual musical comedy was inaugurated at Textile, and it was through the devoted and untiring effort of Mr. Winkfield that such a production was made possible. The show was a huge success, and exceeded the expectations of the producers in every way. Our members participating were Brigham, Hall, Miller, Flagg, Donovan, Wilcox, Dunnican, Hardie, Othote, and McKinley. The year was soon over, and we parted to take up our various summer occu- pations. Junior Days: In the fall we returned to renew our activities with increased vigor. Although our class had dwindled down to one-half its original size, because of our manufac- turers automatically becoming Seniors, we were well represented in all school activities. Our men contributing to the success of the varsity football team were Mitchell, Olsen, Brigham, Villa, Thorn, and Smith, while Brigham and Donovan upheld our name in swimming. Donovan was made captain and manager of this sport, and did much to give it a good start at Textile. F ' rinstance was the musical comedy presented this year, and was written by Edwin Fowle, one of our classmates. Mid-years came and went, and when finals were over we realized that we had but one more year of college to look forward to. Senior Days: We gathered this fall with many new members from the manufacturing courses and so far this has been our brightest and best year at Textile. With Olson as foot- ball captain, Booth as manager, and Smith, McKinstry, Brigham, and Wood other members of the team, we completed a very successful season. Midyears have just passed; and, as usual, our class has upheld its reputa- tion. We are looking with far-seeing eyes into the future and are making plans for our careers which will distinguish us as men of Textile. Ellis Judson Gordon In the following department are included not only Seniors but also those special- course men who are making this their fined year at Textile. An authentic list of the Seniors may be found at the end of the biographies. THE IMCKOl ' T 1 !) 2 4 ARTHUR ELLMAN ANDERSON Wakefield, Massachusetts on HANS ANDY SQUARE-HEAD ENDY A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 Alembic Society 1, 2 Upon finishing his course at Wakefield High in 1920, Andy looked about for somewhere to spend the next four years, and after much thought and pondering he decided to come to the great metropo- lis of Lowell and enter the Textile School. After a consultation with the town-fathers, they decided that he could only spend the day times away, so he became a commuter. One fine day in September, he arrived on a train burdened with a human cargo of Textile and Normal School hopefuls. He journeyed to the school and was completely captivated by Charlie ' s word of welcome. After quite a struggle, Hans finally decided to become a great chemist and for the past four years he has been hard at work per- fecting himself in that difficult art. Quite un- common for a chemist, he took a great liking for Math and has studied its intricacies unceasingly. Hans has lately acquired a flivver, in which he tears over the landscape on his trip from Wakefield each morning. Standing in front of the school at about eight- forty-five each morning, one will hear a roaring sound and, upon inquiry, will learn from some of the know-it-alls that Andy is entering Lowell in his mufflerless flivver, and if you wait a minute or two you will see his chariot come thundering across the bridge. Andy is quite a favorite among the chemists because of his general likability, his pranks, and his good nature; and we feel sure that he will make a name for himself in the chemical world. 27 THE PICKOUT 19 24 WALTER SHIRLEY ANDREWS Lowell, Massachusetts POP ANDY STUBBY After having served with honor with the 26th Division in the World War, Mr. Andrews decided upon a course at Lowell Textile School. Andy was not with us long when he had attained an enviable position in the admiration of his classmates. It has been his go-getter spirit that has won the confidence of others. These traits are sure to be an asset to him when he leaves the college to enter into the business affairs of the textile world. He is also a great baseball fan and would have been one of the college ' s best supports on the mound had he not been wounded during his service in France. He was wounded in his legs and this spoiled his speed on the diamond. Stubby has always been a great asset to s little world. An appropriate picture of him should be taken down in - as that background is the one with which we usually associate him. He understands the mule from head to tail. Although Pop is a worker, he has a great sense of humor and can always take a joke. His cheerful smile will be greatly missed around the college. Mr. Andrews is married and resides with his wife and young daughter at Grove Street, Lowell, Mass. Eddie Barker the wool lab THE l ' K ' KOUT 1924 F REDERI C K A R T H U R ARCHAMBAUL T Lawrence, Massachusetts archie freddie Baseball 3 In the fall of the year 1921, a bright, energetic youth, — answering to the name of Archie or Freddie -- strolled up to the Lowell Textile School, took one glance at its mighty walls and formidable buttresses, and then decided to go over the top, as he had done for Uncle Sam during the late World War. He chose the wool sector for his offensive and began his attack in a very com- mendable manner. In fact he has been cited several times for bravery in attacking General Barker ' s strongholds. His old friend, the mule, did not present any difficulties to him, and it is said that he is very much at home in the French drawing room. Reminds him of old times, no doubt. His work here has been so hard at times that he has been sent to a rest camp in Limie ' s English section, where Archie has recuperated for another attack. Archie has a very pleasing manner and disposition, full of determination to forge ahead. Though handicapped by several wounds received while in line of duty, his initiative has carried him forward to victory and success here at school, and is marked by the many friends he has made. On to Berlin, Archie, and may your offensive in the business world bring you the many victories you so richly deserve. 29 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 RAYMOND BABIGAN Lowell, Massachusetts A. S. T. C. C. 3, 4 Alembic Society 1, 2 RAY azo bab PlCKOUT 4 Glee Club 2 The biographer of Bab is baffled. The trouble lies in the fact that he is such a gosh- darned modest cuss, very quiet and of such a shy disposition that he won ' t say much for himself. He prefers that others should do it for him. Any- how, fellows, our hero, having taught the High School teachers here in Lowell all that they know, thought that the staff at the Lowell Textile School needed improving. And here he is in our midst. He has since learned the value of silence. But, however much Ray is able to conceal, he cannot keep from us the fact that among Lowell society he is very much sought after. Ray and his banjo have made a hit everywhere. There is one thing we wish that Azo would teach us before he goes out into the cold, cold world, and that is the secret of his high marks, and the rapidity with which he goes through an examination. He was always the first one out. Leave us a few addresses too, if you please, Ray. But, seriously, Azo, old top, we wish you the best success in the world, and may you climb to the top as fast as you have done here at old Textile. 30 Til E P I C KO IT 1 !) 2 4 C II ARLES ED W A R D BACHELDER Lowell, Massachusetts on SI1ULTZ CHICK SAW-DOFF Alembic Society, 1, 2, 3 Class Football 2, 3, 4 A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 One day in the fall of nineteen-nineteen a cloud of dust was seen to roll rapidly up Moody Street and stop in front of Textile. When the dust cleared away Chick Bachelder, a Lowell High graduate, was seen beside his trusty bike. At first Chick continued to be the same Sheik with Lowell ' s fairest flappers that he was at High School. In his second year, however, he became a consistent student and saved most of his Sheiking for the summer. Chick summered at Salem Willows, where he was, to quote his own words, Chief Engineer of the Merry-Go-Round (and its chief attraction for the fair sex). That Chick has pursued his studies diligent- ly may be seen by a perusal of his examination papers, the length of which have been the despair of instructors. We remember one in Economics when he used up all the examination books in the room and then went out and wrote the rest of it on the concrete side- walk. When his mustache is on, Chick greatly resembles an old time athlete, which fact may account for his great success in obtaining front row seats at all musical comedies and Harvard football games. As a connoisseur of humorous stories, he has no peer. We have known him to laugh day and night for three weeks over a funny story told him by Professor Beattie. As a lover of poetry, he is known throughout the school. If a cheery disposition, pleasing personality, honest effort, and ability to see the thing through ' ' will win success, then success will surely be his. 31 THE PICKOUT 1924 LESTER HAROLD BAILEY Lowell, Massachusetts les fish ' Alembic Society 1, 2 A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 PlCKOUT 3 Business Manager Pickout 4 Musical Club 1 Here we have Les , the champion long- distance walker from Wigginville. He has tramped from that suburb to college daily for the last four years. No doubt he was in good trim for this strenuous exercise after his expansive military training. He was an officer in the boys ' army at Lowell High School, and then a member of the S. A. T. C. at Textile with the high commission of Fish. He came to like our company so well while attending the night courses that he finally decided to spend all his time with us and become a full-fledged college boy. The Pickout has a remarkably efficient business manager this year in the form of Les. Many a new advertiser has become interested in the book since he took charge and subscriptions have been increased. This evident business ability augurs well for the future. Les has always showed a great perseverance in regard to his studies and has in this way won the admiration of his classmates. If there is a lesson to be done, all attempts to inveigle him away from his books are useless. And therefore, Les, we expect great things of you. 32 TH E PICK OUT 1 !) 2 4 F KEDERI C K CHRISTIAN BECK Southbridge, Massachusetts • AK4 HOUGE RAJAH ROGER F.C.B. Class Football 1 Early in the fall of 1921 a large crowd had gathered at the depot at Southbridge. Strangers thought that President Harding, at least, was visit- ing the city, but upon investigation, it was learned that none other than Rouge Beck, the pride and delight of the woolen industry of their fair town, was leaving to conquer further mills. Upon arriving in Lowell, he soon became accustomed to the tall buildings, and after a few vigorous shakes, settled down to work. Roger never bothered much with the fair sex while here at Textile outside of having a few standing dates — so we can ' t say much in that direction. He soon earned the name of Lucky Beck because more than once he has cleaned the house when sitting in at a penny ante game, much to the sorrow of all others concerned. When it comes to knowing Wool, Roger sure is there; and more than once Eddie has asked his expert advice on the whys and wherefores of the woolen industry. He knows every tooth of the back stood and the result each gives, as well as knowing how to shoe a mule so it won ' t kick. Rouge is always ready to lend a hand to anyone, and this, together with his ever ready wit and humor, has won him many friends who will be sorry to see him leave. No one has a truer, more steadfast friend than Rouge, and if our good wishes are any indication of his ultimate success he has but to knock and walk in. 33 THE PICKOUT 1924 EDWARD BENJAMIN BELL Lowell, Massachusetts $U7 EDDIE THOMAS EDISON Swimming Team 4 Secretary and Treasurer A.

Class Football 4 Class Basketball 3 4 Textile Show 3, 4 Alembic Society 1, 2, 3 One bright September day a young man happened to be passing our stately building and heard noises issuing therefrom. Being of an inquir- ing turn of mind our hero naturally turned in to see what the trouble was. Here he found an argument going on as to the relative merits of the engineering course and the wool course. Eddie listened, be- came fascinated, and then joined the ranks of the chemists, just to show that there were no hard feelings. Eddie has risen fast. He is known as the class diplomat among his fellow students, and his ability as a diplomat is very well demonstrated by his get- ting in wrong with his instructors. It has been es- timated that up to the present time Eddie has put ten instructors in their proper places and has shown them where they belong. Our Thomas Edison is also of a mechanical turn of mind. His ability as such has won for him the position of doctor in the lab., and many a broken piece of apparatus has been fixed so that it would run. As a walking encyclopedia, our Eddie cannot be beaten. He can tell you anything you wish to know, and then some. Ask him about the fair sex of Lowell. We hear talk also that our Eddie is shortly going to take up the job of sleuth in the Lowell liquor squad. Whatever you take up, Eddie, old dear, when you leave Textile, we feel sure that you will make a success of it. Our best wishes go with you. 34 THE PICKOUT 1924 GEORGE JERRARD BIENSTOCK New York City SO ' F GEORGE BEANIE PlCKOTJT 1, 2 Text 3 Class Football 1 Textile Show 1, 2, 3 Class Secretary 3 Many years ago, from the farms of Connecticut wandered a simple, little country lad, full of stirring ambition to make his mark in the big, wild city of New York. Upon hearing of a wilder, more surg- ing, freer town, he journeyed to Lowell, and there he took upon himself the task of making his mark upon the squares in Heinle Bachmann ' s design course. Beanie, however, has continued to make his mark in many other fields of endeavor. Being of a very inquiring turn of mind he has supplied himself with a veritable fount of knowledge. If you wish to know anything about radio, or other things — ask Beanie — he knows. This last year Beanie is applying himself to his studies — leastwise we sur- mise so. We ' ve seen the midnight lights burning quite often, and we know it isn ' t radio that keeps him awake. However, George is one of the most popular fellows at school. His cheery smile, and his happy, care-free manner have won for him a host of friends. Soon he will wander back again to the rapid, swirling life of old New York, and he will take with him the best wishes of us all. 35 THE PICKOUT 1 924 JAMES MOONEY BOOTH Boonton, New Jersey JIM MOONEY SHEIK Football Manager 4 Alembic Society 1, 2 Executive Council 4 Pickout 4 A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 From Boonton to Textile — by James Mooney Booth. This historic volume will soon be published - a romantic account of our hero ' s adventures with porters, sleeping car conductors, and other wayfarers. The flourishing metropolis of New Jersey suffered a great loss when Jimmie came north to study the whys and wherefores of Chem- istry. Although Jimmy has had a hard struggle with the German language as applied to Chem- istry, he has at last mastered this difficult study. The dye lab. seems to have a certain fascination for Jimmie — for he can be found any afternoon peering through the fumes and heat waves, wonder- ing whether the blue skein will really be blue this time, or red, as usual. The Lowell Telephone Company has voted Jim a dividend and a life-long share in the company for his efforts in their behalf while at Textile. He holds the talking endurance record against all comers. It is nothing to see him emerge triumphantly from the phone booth — after two hours or so of conversation -- to inquire innocently, Oh, did you want to use the phone? However, his popularity is so great that he can laugh it off and get away with it. As busy as Jim has been, he has not neglected the social side of life, and many are the friends in Lowell who will wish him Godspeed when he leaves. We all look forward with great certainty to seeing Jim a great success in the business world, and a credit to Boonton. 36 THE PICK OUT 1924 H A ROLD PALMER BRADFORD Andover, Massachusetts J iF HAL ' SHEIK Our little Harold came up to Textile just three short years ago, and since that time has shown the professors all that they know about their subjects. He started in his first year by teaching the boys all about the ins and outs of molecules and atoms of this great universe of ours. Since then he has de- cided that he knows very little about such stuff, and has confined his studies to finding out all about the hair follicles, scales, and fribs. Most interesting to him were the intricacies of the mule, and many a kick has he gotten out of trying to run one of the balky things. Little Harold is of a very investigating frame of mind, and likes nothing better than to stroll around the school buildings to see what is going on. He has asked so many questions that one wonders which course he has taken up. He strenuously maintains that he is a woman hater, and has taken out a life membership in the Bachelor ' s Club. This fact we cannot either affirm or deny. We do not live in Andover. However, reports are to the contrary. We rather think that he likes to be among the members of the fair sex -- but, draw your own conclusions. However, we feel sure that Harold will make his mark in the world, and he leaves with the best wishes of the student body. Good luck to you, old chap. 37 THE PICKOUT 1924 HOWARD MASON BRIGHAM Upper Montclair, New Jersey HAM on 1 LOUISE ' BRIG A. S. M.

Ham certainly put one over that night and won world-wide fame as a female impersonator. During his four years at ' Textile he has been before the glare of the foot- lights on many an occasion, but he has not con- fined his activities wholly to dramatics. Ham has won his letter in three major sports. For three seasons he has played on the varsity eleven at half and quarterback positions, second base on the nine, and is a member of the swimming team. Last year he was made president of the musical and dramatic club and this year he is again president of the club, and also president of the Senior class. Brig has been a devoted disciple of Herbie Ball ' s teachings and claims that there is no course like engineering. Many hot arguments have taken place because of that declaration, and as yet no decision has been reached. There ' s no course like your own, says Ham. L. T. S. is a great deal better for Brigham ' s having been here. He has aided greatly in establishing our reputation for good athletics and good dramatics. We need more men like him — enthusiastic, and not afraid of assuming responsibility. In many ways he is the ideal Textile man — extraordinarily active outside of class and yet high in his studies. The manufacture of narrow fabrics promises to be Ham ' s occupation in the future. We are confident that he will be successful in this or in anything else he undertakes. 38 THE P I C K O U T 1 924 SAMUEL JOSEPH BURGER New York City 2QW ' SAM ' ' SANDBAGGER Textile Show 1, 2, 3 I never knew the old man with the scythe and hour glass to bring anything but grey hairs, thin cheeks, and the loss of teeth, but in the case of Samuel J. Burger, he has success in store for him. Time will tell and with his winning ways and smile he will acquire many new friends as he did during his stay in Lowell. And I am sure that his friends, here, will mourn his departure. Receiving his early training in the Metropolis he proceeded to this institution to be trained in the subjects pertaining to the textile industry. Listen gang, come around close and all promise not to breathe a word of this and I ' ll let you in on a little secret about Samuel. Last summer Sam thought he had some executive ability and decided he ' d try it out. So he hiked up to Wing- dale and told the camp manager what a good guy he was. After listening to the gas a while the boss gave Sam the job just to shut him up. So Sammy was assistant manager, and above all things (he is such a bashful chap), one of his main duties was to escort the ladies to the dances. One thing we ' d all like to know is, What Sam was doing in the Old Social Hall at 3 a.m.? With the graduating class of 1924, Lowell Textile is issuing forth a well-trained man who in the near future will occupy a commanding position in the industry in which he has been trained; to share in its progress and glory. For with his unavoid- able tendency of making and keeping friends, there is only one path that he can follow, for Every man is the architect of his own future. 39 THE PICKOUT 1924 PAUL.

Allow me to introduce to you Mr. Paul Edward Carr - alias Moon, or more popularly known as The Sheik of Magazine Beach. Boy! what a hit he does make with the fair sex 1 It is even said that our Paul, living far north of the Mason-Dixon line, does not have any race prejudices and does not, therefore, draw the color line. They are all alike to him. Be that as it may, Paul does not confine his attentions wholly to the fair sex. He came here to live and learn about the ins and outs of making- cloth from wool, and he has attained a high de- gree of success along those lines. He has delved far into the mysteries of the mule and the spindle. Well, Moon, old kid, we understand that Mr. Wood ' s retirement will take place before long, and we have heard that a certain young man from Cambridge will then be ready to take up his arduous duties. Here ' s luck to you. -to THE PIC 1 K O l T T 19 24 WEN P E I CHEN Shanghai, China chen A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 C. C. A.

Chen partakes many of the precedental privileges which most of his fellow countrymen have never had. He is a devoted chemist, a practical dyer, a student of wide inform- ation and pursuits, having attended so far nearly all well-known universities in the neighboring states, and finished most of the subjects in the Engin- eering department here. These institutions include M. I.T., Columbia and New York University. He is, further, a young man of activity, having done his good share in the Exhibition of Lowell Art Asso- ciation, and being again the President of the Lowell Chinese Students ' Club. Chen is also musical, melodies under his ham- mers on the xylophone once attracting many a lover. Having decided to know about the mysteries of the unknown, he plunges himself as a wool dyer. He is, further, a man of good nature, though talkative. His talk is, however, very entertaining. More interesting is the fact that he is nevertheless a bashful fellow, unable to stand and talk on meeting people at his first acquaintance. All joking aside, Chen is a fine fellow, and on leaving Lowell, many friends wish him the best success. 41 THE PICKOUT 1 924 DAVID SCOTT CLEMENT Adams, Massachusetts DAVIE MON SCOTTIE DAVIE Alembic Society 1, 2 Musical and Dramatic Club 3 A. S. T. C. C. 3, 4 Away back in 1914, while still a wee lad run- ning amangst the hither, Davie heard of the wonderful textile schools in the U. S. A., especially the one to be found in the bonny braes of Mass- achusetts. He, accordingly, took passage on the Mayflower, and in due time joined the chemists ' clan at our ancient institution. For a while he buried himself among the pots and pans of the dye lab., and labored in his endeavor to produce some new colors for his plaid. New attractions, however, soon enticed him away from his labors, and it was reported that he had been seen wandering over the hills to Andover, where doubtless some bonnie Scotch lassie drew him with her charms. He has become an asset to the local Street Railway Company. Scottie had made such a hit with the ladies that he decided to emulate the fair sex himself. His success along these lines was shown in last year ' s Textile show, F ' rinstance, and also in the fact that he has tried his hand as a fair waitress. Among Scottie ' s traits is the deep, undying love for his mother country, and many an audience has he held spellbound while telling of its wonders and the beau- ties of its hills and valleys --to say nothing of its color lakes. (See Prof. Olney.) However, Scottie has shown while here at school his Scotch grit and deter- mination, and we feel sure that he will go far in the world of success when he leaves us. 42 T HE PI C K I T 1924 MARGUERITE MARIE CODY North Adams, Massachusetts marguerite Marguerite decided that the world needed her services as a textile colorist, so came to the college on the Merrimack, after graduating from Drury High School. Marguerite ' s favorite resort is Dye Lab., and there she may be found any day mixing bright-colored solutions. Here is a secret, — this promising young chemist has been trying to get a new black. which some time may lead her to fame and fortune. Although Marguerite can not go in for ath- letics, she has been a good rooter for the college. Well, she likes foot ball and basketball, and as for baseball, she has been known to travel as far as Durham to see her team beat the University of New Hampshire. If you watch closely you will notice that Marguerite ' s walks always lead townwards. Just where she goes is a mystery but we understand the ice cream business has increased rapidly since last fall. (It must be Nelson ' s.) It has also been said that she has been seen many times on Central Street, but as for that, only Marguerite can tell. A most successful future is the wish of her friends at Textile. We are sorry to see her leaving, but know she will make good wherever she may be. 43 THE PICKOUT 1 924 WINTHROP PRESCOTT CODY Newton Highlands, Massachusetts on WIN COPY BILL RIP Prof. Judd ' s Math Class 4 Assistant Manager Baseball 2 A. S. M. E. 1 Three years ago, Win arrived at Mr. Earnes ' School for Boys, with the idea of taking a course in Chemistry, but after one look at the Dye Lab., Win changed his mind. Win has pursued the wool course and has given Professor Barker much cause to worry, due to his questions and the inventions he has made for the simplifying of the woolen system, and even the professor has said to us, Keep your eyes on Cody -- he will revolutionize the woolen industry. Win has always shown a great affinity foi Math, and the faculty has for some time been con- sidering making him a professor in that subject. His instructors often came to his room evenings for a little enlightenment on difficult problems. He operates a radio receiving station at the top of the fraternity house and keeps the fellows posted on world events. This bashful lad must have some friend among the fair sex because every so often Win will disappear for an evening and no one knows where he has gone. Win is one of those cpiiet fellows and doesn ' t have a great deal to say, but we are due for a surprise when Win gets going. Go to it, Win. We know Bill Wood will be asking you for a job in one of your mills some day. 44 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 ELEANOR HOLKINS COGGESHALL Framingham, Massachusetts eleanor Eleanor came to Textile, after graduating from the high school in her home town. She elected the course in Textile Design, and has been very successful in her chosen work. No design seems too difficult for this co-ed, and it is said that the harder it is the better Eleanor likes it. She has proven herself a valuable assistant to Heinie, and a friend to the designers. School work has not taken all of our Eleanor ' s time, and she is always ready to join her crowd in anything that they wish to do. She is always on the alert for a good time, and may be counted upon to brighten things up with some witty saying. Eleanor is very fond of walking, and is always ready to start just as soon as anyone mentions the word. Each noon hour finds her walking on the streets near the school — alone, of course not ! (I can ' t tell you who her companion is, but if you ask her, perhaps she will tell you the secret. She told me.) These daily walks are not always confined to this side of the river, for she has been seen wandering on the other side of the Merrimack. Eleanor has the wishes of all for a very successful future. 45 THE PICKOUT 1924 GEORGE EDWARD COUPE, Jr. Lowell, Massachusetts SCOOP GEORGIE WHITE OWL WHI CHANG A. S. M. E. 2, 3 Dramatic Club 1, 2, 3 Show Management 2, 3 Textile Engineering Society 2, 3 Text The first inkling we poor mortals had of Georgie ' s existence was when, in September 1921, he appeared as a shining light in the ranks of the Freshman parade. It took just one day for us to discover him, but it will take a lifetime for us to forget him. In his freshman year White Owl signed up with the wool men. At the start of his sophomore year, he decided he knew more about wool than Ed Barker or Limie Lowe, and so prevailed upon Herbie to allow him to become an engineer. At this time, Whi Chang thought the school show needed a little pepping up. So, as big as life, and without asking anyone ' s permission, Georgie nominated himself as assistant stage manager. He proved so successful that he was unanimously elected stage manager for this year ' s show. This year, Georgie has been doing very well with his studies, but he has two excellent excuses for this lapse. One of them is his multifarious duties as manager of that great one-man department, The Blueprint Shop; the other, and more vital excuse is his girls in Lawrence and one certain feminine individual named Alice. Next time you see Georgie floating around school in a dreamy fashion, you will know that physically he is present, but spiritually he is — well, draw your own conclusions. So George is going to desert us and attempt to fulfill the decision he made while still a fairy of startling the world. We who know him well are positive that he will do so. Scoop, old man, we wish you the success in the future that you merit, but take heed of Chaucer and remember — One ear heard it, and at the other out it went. Stop up one of your ears. 40 THE PICKOUT 1 !) 2 4 AN ANT V IT HAL DATAR Bombay, India RAJAH ' SNAPPY A. S. M. E. 2, 3, 4 Delegate A. S. M. E. 3 T. C. A. 3, 4 Textile Show 3 PlCKOUT 3, 4 Anant landed in our midst after a long journey from India. We are proud to acclaim that the fame of L. T. S. draws such men from such distances. Snappy ' s sunny smile has won for him many friends at the school and in Lowell. It is a safe bet to place him as the best natured student in Textile. Have you seen the last word in men ' s cloth- ing? If not, call on Anant and get a little advice. His wonderful savoire faire has given him his nickname of Snappy. Anant is an artist to his very finger-tips. Not only in the usual sense of being good with the crayon, but also in everything he does. His motto is, Do everything well and then add a little extra. All of us have our pet ambitions. Snappy ' s most earnest desire is to start a newspaper back home, write the editorials himself, have a funny sheet, ' n ' everything. His proclivities to studies are very well known, but perhaps he shone most brilliantly in Engine Lab. where the cry was ever, Datar, get the Data. However studious he may be, social activities find Anant there in all depart- ments. They say he blows a mean East Wind at Mali Jong, and at cards - well, anyone who saw him pull two aces of hearts from one deck at the Auditorium last year will testify to his ability. The one thing we all will always remember about Anant, though, is his constant good sportsmanship and cameraderie. Knowing him has been a pleasure and a privilege. To use his own expression, he is the berries! Here ' s more power to you, Anant Vithal Datar. May we be as good representatives of our country as you are of yours ! 47 THE PICKOUT 1924 WALTER BRADFORD DOANE Milford, Massachusetts DICK DOANIE BRAD Class Basketball 1, £ Textile Show % 3 Class Baseball 1, 2 Many years ago, in the sleepy little town of Milford, there was born a smiling little cherub, whose coming so entranced his proud and happy parents that they named him Walter Bradford — Dick, for short. As the years rolled by a textile journal by accident happened to be left at the country store. While lounging around the stove one cold, bitter day, our hero happened to see our inspiring advertisement in aforesaid journal. This act at once aroused his ambition to lead the textile world into new and mightier fields. Thus he came to Lowell. After listening to Herbie ' s explanation of the proper path to fame via the Engineering course, our hero signed up for his four-year cruise. The way proved too hard and tedious, and yielding to the siren call of Eddie, Dick changed over to try his luck in the land of the Rams. Here he has met with signal success, and there is yet hope that his cherished ambitions will be fulfilled. While at Lowell, Dick has made many friends, and there will be many a broken heart left behind when June comes around. By the way, Dickie, old boy, who is she? Our hero will soon return to Milford, whence he came, to take up his life ' s work. He will face the future with a strong determination to tackle and conquer whatever confronts him. We all wish him luck. 48 THE TICK OUT 19 2 4 JOSEPH RICHARD DONOVAN Dorchester, Massachusetts A K f DODO DONNIE JOE J.

Joe decided on the chemistry end of the game and has pursued the elusive Gamma ray with dili- gence and tenacity of purpose, until now we find him ready to step out and show the world a few things. Dodo is a physical chemistry wizard, and if any info is desired about the dancing mole- cules here ' s the place to look for it. He did not bother the fair sex much in his first two years at L. T. S. outside of just seeing them once in a while, as even the strongest among us will. As a female impersonator in the Textile Show he sure is the berries, and his voice rivals that of John McCormack. The swimming team is a product of Donnie ' s untiring efforts, for it was he that first introduced the sport to Lowell. His specialty is performing on the diving board and there are few who can compare with his forward 1 somersault. There ' s a whole lot more we can say about Joe but if the regard of those of us who are fortunate enough to be listed among his friends is any indication of his ultimate success in business, we can state authoritatively that he has a most brilliant future before him. 49 THE PICKOUT 1924 FRANCIS JOSEPH DOWD Boston, Massachusetts AK$ dink Out from the deep retirement and sweet con- tent of the slumbering hills of Roxbury, came a quiet, unassuming youth to tackle the intricacies of the wool course. Such was the advent into the textile world of Frank Joseph Dowd. He came, as he says, because the woolen and worsted trade needed a strong bracing up. This field has too long been in a comatose condition, and our hero, with the training received at Textile, intends to make over the industry and put it on a thriving plane through the application of his original ideas. He will at first concentrate on that contrary animal known as the mule. We wish him success. It is rumored that the textile industry is not the only one that receives Frank ' s attention. Of ■ course, it is merely a rumor, but they do say that he has gone in for bootlegging, or something like that. We do not know what success his efforts have been crowned with, but we hear that he expects to acquire a Case before many moons have passed. All joking aside, however, we feel confident that Frank will tackle the business world and its problems with the same degree of intensity he has shown here, and we will doubtless hear from him in time to come. 50 THE 1MCKOIT 1 9 2 4 H A R R Y W YATT DUGUID Fitchburg, Massachusetts on HARRY duggard MR. DOOGARD This is what would be technically called an abstract — being a short treatise on a long sub- ject: said subject being six feet plus in his pajama tops. Studies do not trouble him in the least, but he has his eternal triangle which seems to be colds, overcuts, and young ladies. He is very successful in attracting a goodly number of each. Annually Harry plans a two weeks ' vacation, by coming down with the grippe or pneumonia. Yes, he enjoyed his stay at the Lowell General Hospital. The nurses did everything to make his stay one not soon to be forgotten. How he disposes of his overcuts will always be a debatable question. When one knows him, it is easy to understand that much might be said concerning his relations with the fairer but weaker sex. Good authority informs us that his triumphs are not altogether confined to the Dirty City. The cotton course in L. T. S. went up 100% after Mr. Doogard enlisted in the ranks of Steve Smith. What Harry doesn ' t know about cotton has probably as yet not been discovered. In fact, he is so sure of himself that he even takes a short nap now and then during Steve ' s lectures. These naps do not prevent him from following through the lectures, however; and even when disturbed in his rest by some question, he can give the correct answer without missing a snore. We also know that he has proportioned his work and play so well that he has enjoyed much of the latter and yet performed creditably in the former, obtaining that breadth of knowledge and mind which is such a necessary asset for success, and we feel sure in predicting that Harry, in whatever walk of life he chooses, will always be on top of the pile. 51 THE P I C K O TJ T 1924 EDWARD TUNIS DUNNICAN Passaic, New Jersey EFFIE EDDIE WHITEY DUNNIE TUNIS A.

Eddie is quite a boy for argument, but quite often he will give in to his weaker opponent. A listener can always tell when this moment is reached, for Whitey will invariably say, Well, all right then — get pig-headed if you want to! Our hero is small of stature, but that is no index to his nature, because he ' s one of the squarest fellows that ever came to L. T. S., and has never been known to do anything but good for anybody. Whitey has the spirit of Napoleon when it comes to waging wars, and were it not for his prohibitive frame-work, he would have won a letter in every authorized line of sport at Textile. He was a bulwark of strength on the second team in football, and invariably he would carry the old pigskin ten or fifteen yards, before some big, hulking youth would pin him to the ground. The coach would have just loved to have used him in some of our toughest games, but Whitey ' s valor would have been the death of him. The coach realized this, and saved Eddie many a broken bone; but it isn ' t Eddie ' s fault that he isn ' t all smashed to smithereens now. However, we ' re mighty grateful that he isn ' t, and so is everyone who knows him. His friends are legion. Well, here ' s good luck to you, Mister; it ' s a privilege to have known you. 52 T H E PICKO V T 1 924 E RNES T W I L L I A M D U R G I N Lowell, Massachusetts ERNIE BILL Alembic Society 1, % 3 A. A. T. C. C. 4 T. C. A. 3, 4 Four short years ago a quiet, studious youth learned of the fame of Gay-Lussac, and almost im- mediately decided to emulate him. Accordingly he came to Textile and demonstrated his ambition and determination by signing up as one of the heroes of the beaker and the test tube club. The course was long and hard, and its way led through dark and smelly labs., midst the steaming dye-pots, but Ernie never faltered. Undaunted, this quiet youth silently carried on, and nothing but the honor of a B. T. C. could stop him. Even though Ernie worked hard at his tasks every day, he could find time to give a helping hand to his less fortunate brother of the dye-pots. A great air of mystery surrounds this modest youth of Lowell. We have pondered many times over the question as to where our hero spends his evenings. Of course such a stu- dious young man must put in some time on his lessons, but why is it that we can never find him in? Where does he go? How does he spend his leisure moments? Dame Rumor has whispered in our ears that --but, no, time itself will unravel the deep mystery. For the present we can but wish him luck. We are sure, however, that Ernie will, through his earnestness, unfaltering ambition, and high ability, be a huge success in his chosen work. He will leave with the best wishes, not only of his brother chemists, but of the whole student body. 515 THE PICKOUT 1 924 MARTIN ALEXANDER FELDSTEIN Lakewood, New Jersey ALEC MARCUS ULTRA JELLY A. S. M A. S. M E. 2, 3, 4 E. Delegate 2, 4 Textile Show 2 Class Football 4 Ladies and gentlemen, may I present for your approval and inspection Martin Alexander Feldstein. After graduating from the high school in Lakewood, New Jersey, Alec desired for a change in climate and he turned his eyes towards New England. He first joined the famous techni- cal institution on the Charles, in Cambridge, Mass., but, being dissatisfied with the course he was taking there, he steamed to Lowell one summer afternoon and joined the mill -men ' s college on the banks of the Merrimack. Outwardly calm and imperturbable, he has a very likeable disposition and has won the esteem of all his classmates and friends. Socially speaking Alec is the berries and we will say he shakes a mean pair o ' dogs. The Moody Street Flappers have done their best to lure him, but they have been very miserably disappointed by Alec. He goes to Boston every week-end without fail. Alec keeps the telephone exchange extremely busy, making dates with the Hub fairies. Alec ' s hobby is the building of radio sets. He spends hours after hours, both by day and by night, in thinking of new radio hook-ups; and, we understand, he has been offered the chairmanship of one of the leading Radio Corporations in the country. Alec intends to go into the knitting game and be a John D. in that line. He is a very conscientious and hard worker, and there is no doubt but that in a few years we shall find the name, Martin Alexander Feldstein, among other important names in Who ' s Who. 54 THE PirKOI ' T 19 24 EDWIN DANIELS FOWLE Maiden, Massachusetts on ED THE ACTOR EDDIE Author Textile Show 3 A.

We do not mean, how- ever, that Ed remained unnoticed — far from it. Everybody knows him and he has accomplished much in his four years at college, as his engineering degree will testify. For three years Ed commuted, but even in those strenuous days his activity was apparent, for in his junior year he became famed as the author of the widely remembered show of the Dramatic Club, F ' rinstance. Ed ' s crowning glory came when he was chosen editor-in-chief of this year ' s Pickout. Although he often groans about the amount of work he has to do and knows that he will never be able to get it done, he still finds time to sit down with the boys and discuss the topics of the day. Ed has lived in Lowell this last year — that is, lived here for five days of the week, for he has never taken advantage of local talent. It is an impossibility to keep him here over the week-ends. However, he always turns up again Monday morning, tired but happy, and dreamily admits he had a very satisfactory time. However, we don ' t blame you a bit, Ed, old man. Ed spent most of his time last summer in working for the state, and once one gets him telling stories of his travels (they are really more interesting than The Tale of Two Cities ), one ' s effort is well repaid. In fact, one afternoon Ed started with the Blackstone River and when half past four rolled around he was in Europe. Speedy work, Ed. Seriously, however, though Ed is leaving Textile this year, we know that it will not be long before we hear of him from the fields which he has set out to conquer. Best of luck to you, old man, we know you are going to get there. 55 THE PICK OUT 1924 HENRY RICHARD GERRITS Yonkers, New York AK$ HANK JERRY TERRY Text 2, 3 Textile Show 1, 2, 3, Pickout Board 2, 3 Social Committee 1, 2 Although Henry hails from Yonkers, he has been successful in living down the fact. The boy is there. However, Hank first saw the world in Mt. Vernon, N. Y., and why he left there is a mys- tery to us. Mt. Vernon still receives his untiring attention; and, as a matter of fact, we think he pays taxes (taxis) there yet. Hank never realized there was such a thing as school until he spent four years at Fordham Pre- paratory, and then only in preparation for a greater task. However, Hank must have done well, for in ' 22 he was admitted to L. T. S., where he chose to study wool. The first year or two of his college life was normal (normal as could be), and we can ' t say that Hank was ever lonesome. Nevertheless, one fine day Henry awoke and found that there was more to life than just men; yes, there was something else — one girl. We all have wondered what became of Henry during the Christmas vacation of 1922, when he failed to return for several weeks. We all agree Hank ' s motto is Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well ; because whatever he undertakes receives endless care and attention. Henry ' s contribution to the 1923 Pickout and his untiring efforts to make the Textile shows a success are only a few of the things which show his support to L. T. S. We all wish Hank the best of luck, and if he continues in the future as in the past with his effort and willingness for work, the class of 1930, and all to follow, will look up to him as a shining example of L. T. S. and an asset to the Textile industry. 50 T II E PIC KOUT 1924 C L A R ENCE FAULKNER OILMAN West Roxbury, Massachusetts GILLIE CLAIRE SPLINTER ' SHADOW Musical and Dramatic Club 2, 3 Hockey 3 German 1, 2, 3 It isn ' t hard to figure out where this human splinter hails from. He eats, talks, and sleeps Roslindale, but it isn ' t his fault. Notwithstanding this misfortune, he has been popular among the fellows and staff, as well. With the advent of Gillie the cotton mar- ket took a jump, and Steve Smith has been keeping this Shadow on the jump. His quest for knowledge in his chosen field has kept him in the lab. picking the boll weevils out of the bales so late in the afternoon that George Shea was forced to report him to his understudy — Herbie Ball. Gillie will long be remembered as that long, lean female dancer in F ' rinstance. His blonde hair and his figure added to the beauty and ease in which he executed that hip-rolling strut. When the call came to attack the champion hockey team up in Nashua, Gillie was on his skates and showed himself up as good material, if Textile were gifted with an authorized hockey team. With the ladies Gillie certainly is popular. He hops from one to the other (he has so many) and we are always wondering who his latest will be. His love affairs have generally been of two weeks ' duration, but when the time comes Gillie will settle down on a one and only. Gillie. the problems of the business world are now facing you, but with the same diligence and go get ' em spirit which has been characteristic of your work here at Textile, we know you will overcome all obstacles that may lie in your path to success. Go to it, Kid!! 57 THE PICKOUT 1 924 ELLIS JUDSON GORDON Hazardville, Connecticut on DINGBAT EEEJAY it 99 ELI ELSE PlCKOUT 4 Page, Dingbat!! The boy with the inclin- ation. Ellis is a product of the Nutmeg State, raised in the metropolis, Hazardville, of which no doubt you all have heard. Three long years ago he took up his course in Wool Mgf . at Textile, and since that time has done his best to master Professor Barker ' s wizardry. To those who know him but slightly, Dingbat appears to be of a rather quiet disposition, and one who prefers spending an evening at home to stepping out. So he was in his early days in Lowell — a devotee of home, but now the unsolvable problem is: — in what young lady ' s home does he spend his leisure evenings?? Although Eli was never a shark at Mech or Math, he has made up for this weakness in his textile subjects. We expect, in later years, to find him assisting the illustrious Hank Ply in teaching the wool classes the Idiosyncrasies of the Mule. So be it! The world may little know or long remember the work Dingbat did here, but it can never forget his musical affliction. On the piano he was a One Finger artist of the highest degree, a student of the Hunt and Find Method, and on the ukulele he is without an equal. But, remember the old proverb, try, try again! Dingbat, old man, we are sorry that we must part. We will miss your good nature, your sessions at the piano, and your songs. You leave us with our sin- cere wishes for your future achievement, and we know that you will in later years, bring success to yourself and credit to Textile. 58 THE PICK OUT 19 2 4 FREDERICK KILBY HALL Milton, Massachusetts on KEWP Class Football 1, 2 A.

A. 1, 2, 3, 4 Musical and Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4 Four years ago when Kewpie left his hometown of Milton, few of the natives realized just what a name he would make for himself. In his Freshman year he became famous for the loss of one front tooth in the Freshman-Sophomore football game and ever since then one thing or another has kept him in the eyes of the public. For the last four years Sam has been breaking the hearts of Rogers Hall ' s fairest by his appearance in the choir at Saint Anne ' s. We often wondered why it was they always sat in the front of the church. At any rate Kewp is a well-known figure in the Highlands. He was not slow to recognize the advantages of playing in Lowell. Seriously, however, he has always been active at college and always willing to give time and service to any activity — taking part in the college plays of ' 21, ' 22, and ' 23. Kewpie has also been active in the T. C. A. and this year was elected vice-presi- dent of the society. For a thesis Kilby picked one that will go down in the school annals as an example of super-ambition. It is said that every mill superintendent from Lowell to Billerica shivers whenever he hears the name of Hall. He leaves us this year with a degree of B. T. E., as well as with the sincere respect of all his classmates. Kewpie intends to go into the wool game and to that end we wish him the best of luck and know that before long we shall see him enjoying the good fortune that he deserves. 59 THE PICKOUT 1 924 T. C.

He ' s been accused more than once of being a bluffer, but be that as it may, he successfully completed three hard, solid years at Springfield College, and would have graduated the following one, had not the Great War broken out, causing him to journey to the land of La belle France like all red-blooded Americans. That he ' s a clever guy cannot be doubted, for after serving three strenuous years in the Engineering Corps of the A. E. F. he came to the City of Spindles, took an Assistant Physical Di- rectorship in the local Y. M. C. A., and also a course in Eddie Barker ' s night class; thereby stealing a good healthy march on those of us who are going out with him this year. Most fellows have ups and downs in their college life, but Guy has had the happy faculty of disposing of trivialities and concentrating on the worth- while things of life; and as a result he has attained a very enviable position in the little college on the Merrimack. He has a temper that is nothing short of the Wrath of God, but he realizes his shortcomings and is doing his best to conquer them. Never mind, Hickie, old boy, nobody ever amounted to much unless he did have a temper, so you see you ' ve got lots to live for. It might be proper at this time to mention that Guy Hedrick Harmon, pride of Bennington, Vermont, took unto himself a wife at the close of his Sophomore year. More than one wise head wagged disapproval at such a promising youth, wilfully assuming such a weighty responsibility before his schooling had reached completion. However, as it has turned out, that is just what was best for our Guy, be- cause Polly, his wife, has instilled into him the desire to excel in all things, and when June rolls ' round, there ' s no doubt but that old Textile is going to lose a man among men. More power to him, says we. 60 THE PICK OUT 19 2 4 BERKELEY LEWIS HATHORNE St oneha m , Massachusetts buck ' LEMUEL HERRING-CHOKER RUBE A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 Alembic 1, 2 Textile Show 2 Returning from a wild time ' way down east in Maine, Buck deserted the Stoneham High School army and bummed his way to Lowell. On this long journey, he acquired the habit of eating sar- dine sandwiches in public, and never got over it. The fresh girls around Pa wt ticket ville so frightened Buck that he lived in the local Y for protection. Our country gentleman couldn ' t stand being kept awake till ten o ' clock by the wild parties held in the Y, so he has been forced to commute for the last three years in order to get away from the influence of city night life. He realizes that the principal thing the college was made for was studying. He made a clean-up last summer, and as a result he now makes the daily trip to Stoneham in his own Baby Lincoln with his friend Yokel for a chauffeur. Outside of eating fish, his hobbies are radios, Fords, fighting, and getting H ' s. Here ' s to Buck, that chemistry shark. He studied a lot but kept it dark. After an exam he would claim he got F But he would always get H and the rest would get left. Never a thought does he give to the high price of gas and paint, for Buck is a prodigy and has his own synthetic method for making his gasoline and paint from the exhaust of his engine. Industry, perseverance, and good nature, are the requisites of the business world; and, by our acquaintance through our four short years at Textile, we know Buck possesses these to a very great degree. When Buck gets out into the world, we know that he will be a worthy and loyal exponent of Professor Olney ' s chem. course. 61 THE PICKOUT 1924 JAMES ALBERT HORNE Maiden, Massachusetts on AT AL jamesalbert buster Text 3, 4 PlCKOUT 3, 4 Viee-Pres A. S. M. E. %? -President of Junior Class Vice-President of Senior Class James Albert comes from fine old New Eng- land stock. His name, he will tell you, used to be Van Home — Dutch, you know — and he ' s not at all ashamed that his ancestors lived in Maine. He used to lead a quiet, happy life down in the big city of Maiden; but, about four years ago, he set out to conquer Textile. Like all great conquerors, he met with a mis- hap soon after reaching the new territory. In the horrible melee that resulted from the clash between sophomores and freshmen, little Albert lost a brand new pair of shoes. (They turned up several weeks later, however, on the feet of another freshman.) Nothing daunted, Al came back the next day and firmly planted himself. Gradually he grew big and powerful — in both mind and body. His famous locker up in Kitson Hall became a meeting place for all the college. On it was emblazoned in heavy 2H lead the word Home. Before these five letters, students and faculty often knelt in reverence. He was popular everywhere — among his fraternity brothers, among the students at large, among the faculty, and especially among the ladies. He used to have a photograph of Pola Negri addressed to him in memory of the many good times we have had together. On an unlucky day for the college, but a lucky day for Al, he took the business management of the Text. As an advertising medium, the paper is wonderful. No one who tries to read it doubts Al ' s business ability. We are proud of him and fond of him. His next plunge is into the world, where success awaits him. 62 Tii k v i c k o r r 1 !) 2 4 B A R T N D R E W HUBB A R 1) Bangor, Maine on COTTON Ba(r)tON MANIAC HUB STATE OF MAINE HUBBARD Class Baseball 1 President of Class 1 Executive Council 1 From way down East came faint strains of music from the village band of Bangor. Citizen Hubbard was entraining for the shores of the Merrimack to prepare for his life work among Eli ' s cotton gins and Steve Smith ' s Slubbers. He landed squarely in L. T. S., was elected presi- dent of his class and put across a Freshman Xmas dance, long remembered among his classmates as the one time Rogers Hall came, saw, and conquered. Known as a conscientious worker, he has buckled down and seldom wanders from his fireside to view the sites of the town. But, there is a reason. At his fireside he is not alone, a helping hand in the person of his wife smooths the path for him and oft we sigh for a married bliss such as his. Three short years have passed with more or less success to him and his mates and now he stands on the threshold of the great temple to the unknown goddess, Future. There is no doubt but that she will treat kindly with him. If it were not for his specialized training at Textile, we should advise him to adopt the profession of the auctioneer. His marvelous ability in this line he has often demonstrated — as many a highest bidder will testify. After witnessing one of his private auctions, we had all the pockets of our trousers sewed up. This shows his business ability, perhaps, and gives even more promise of success. 63 THE PICKOUT 1924 JOSEPH HOWARD HUGHES Maiden, Massachusetts on MARIMBA ' H ARD ' KNICK J. Howard Hughes! The hills of Lowell have echoed and re-echoed that illustrious name for four bright and cheery years and it is hard to realize that no longer will Marimba be seen fluttering around the Textile campus. Above all others, those who will grieve on his departure are S. N. Hoelrich, Dominick Sugden and Limie Lowe. During Marimba ' s college course he and S. N. Hoelrich have been inseparable pals and it brings warm tears to our eyes when we think that these two must part. Howard prepared for the demands of college life at the Maiden High School. The records of that institution show that he had a remarkable drag with the faculty while there and, as it was impos- sible to immediately chop that drag, he retained it throughout his four years at L. T. S. Marimba has never been greatly interested in any of the fair sex of Lowell but has been kept well posted on Smith College. Occasionally he manages to tear himself away from his studies long enough to spend a week-end at Northampton and he always has a great deal to say after one of these visits. Howard plans to engage in the manufacture of narrow fabrics when he leaves Textile and we all join in wishing him the best of luck. 64 t h k r i c k o it 19-24 PHILIP STANLEY JOHNSON Lynn, Massachusetts B. S. A. PHIL RED FAT Textile Show 1, 2, 3, 4 Alembic 1, 2, 3 A. A. T. C. C. 3, i Way back in 1919, Red came to us un- wept, unhonored, and unsung. Then he proceeded to do all those things for himself. After graduating his pet ambition is to complete his chemistry train- ing in Germany (having been so well grounded in Dutch, while taking Professor Cushing ' s course five years). Without a doubt he is the most talent- ed salesman in college, as his ad-getting ability proves. His latest success has been selling oar- locks in the Sahara desert, and overshoes to the Moroccos. Much credit is due him for last year ' s show program. Because of his untiring efforts, this year ' s sheet should be brighter and better. Phil is a valuable asset to one of the local papers, and his go get it spirit has brought it in- creased advertising business. Red is a great talker — he could talk the savageness out of a bear. Our idea of an endurance test is to sit and listen to him for three hours. And yet, during the three hours we would undoubtedly obtain a lot of information. Every Sunday, for some reason or other, Red takes a train for Boston. He is always in a very cheerful frame of mind when he starts, and he smiles contentedly afterward, when you ask him if he enjoyed himself. There must be something worth while down there. Considering Red ' s ability to get along with people and his business ability, he is certain to be successful. 65 THE PICKOUT 1924 GEORGE KENNETH LEWIS Nashua, New Hampshire on JAZZ TED KID KEN G. K. A. S. M. E. 2, 3, 4 Manager Coop 4 Class Vice-President 2 Executive Council 3 Class President 3 From the dark forests of Nashua, came the six feet two inches of Lewis. He was not long in getting used to the traffic and roar of the big city; and, after finding out which way the North wind was blowing, he finally landed on Moody Street. We find him entering the massive portals of college, and immediately being nestled under the wings of Herbie Ball. Beneath this protection Jazz has thrived and lost no time in giving us the war cry of the hardy Engineers. Jazz soon showed us that studies in the Engin- eering course meant nothing to him, unless they were hit for a 100% or better. It was with difficulty that G. K. was prevented from throwing himself into the Merrimack River after learning that he had only received a 98 in Chemistry. However, all of the Ted Kid ' s love of studies could not induce him to re- main in Lowell over the week-end to prepare for Monday, and accordingly every Friday night we find him taking out his high boots and corn cob and returning to his beloved wilderness. The mystery has as yet remained unsolved. During the last year, we find Nashua ' s pride taking the part of Jesse James in the Coop. Business has been rushing and from the manner in which the store has been handled we think that big things are ahead for Ken. Jazz and his cheerful personality will certainly be missed behind the counter of the store by all his mates, and we cannot measure the amount of success and good luck we wish him in the great game he has entered. 60 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 PHILIP RUSSELL LOWE Andover, Massachusetts on A. S. M. E. % 3, 4 it 5? PHIL Orchestra 1 Secretary of A. S. M. E. 3 Philip Lowe, alias Phil, the pride of that very small town called Andover, walked into the realms of Southwick Hall in September, 1920. Being a man of experience, silence to him was golden, and for the first year we heard very little from him. However, as time passed on and our work became difficult, we noticed that Phil took life just as easy. From the end of the first year we recognized him as a scholar, and many a lesson would still remain undone had it not been for his help. YomeIl are out of his line, according to him. Nevertheless, there is one queer trait that cannot be explained. After he acquired that four cyl- indered Ford Coupe, he had a funny habit of dolling up and disappearing about the time that a man generally calls on his lady friend. This is not enough evidence to convict, but a man that has to shave after supper does not do so for the sake of inhaling the fresh evening air. In fact he has practically admitted that there is one woman, and this the best he ever knew. He is the official movie operator for the college and has a genuine attachment for his projecting machine. In fact, everything electrical has a fascination for him, and the world need not mourn the loss of Steinmetz as long as Phil is with us. Furthermore, he is a widely recognized authority on radio. Phil is cut out as a man for the leader of men, and we take our hats off to him. The best of luck to you, old pal. 67 THE PICKOUT 1924 JAMES BRADLEY McKINSTRY Southbridge, Massachusetts MAC JIM HARP TOOTHLESS JAZZ B Class Football 1 Football 1, 3 Basketball 2, 3 Three years ago a rather frightened person holding a carpet bag in one hand and a high school diploma in the other disembarked from one of the luxurious coaches of the B. and M. railroad and looked wonderingly at the city of Lowell. After satisfying his desire to see more of the city, Mac prepared a speech which he hoped to deliver when Charlie welcomed him into L. T. S. the next mprning. Harp registered as an aspirant for a diploma of the wool course and placed himself under the guidance of Limie Lowe and Eddie Barker. That he has been a good student is proved by the fact that he dives recklessly into any problem that is handed him and comes up smiling with an answer. In school athletics Jazz B has always been a favorite and has at all times been looked upon as a strengthening link in any aggre- gation of players. His fame and popularity in sports have not been limited to the confines of the school, however, for Mac is always welcomed in local amateur sports. With the other sex, Mac is a favorite. The sad part of it is he can ' t keep them all happy in addition to doing his school work. Consequently a good many broken hearts may be chalked up to his credit. Mac leaves school to conquer greater fields with our sincere wishes for success and happiness. Go to it, Mac. 68 THE PICKOUT 1924 JOSHUA MILLER Dorchester, Massachusetts SO?

E. 2, 3, 4 Musical and Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4 Two years after the close of the war, our hero had a vision that the textile industry was in need of great leaders. So the toughest chap that ever came out of the wilds of Dorchester wended his way to Lowell. Herbie took one look at Jess and immediately decided that such a mathematical genius would be wasted in any other department, i For four straight years Jess has been among the topnotchers of his class. If he is not excused from an exam, well, you know no one else is either. Because of his splendid work as stage manager in F ' rinstanee, Jess has been elected as the General Manager for the coming show. Shorty has one great hobby, and that is call- ing up the fairer sex. Once he gets on the phone, he is good for at least an hour. Although physically in Lowell, he is spiritually somewhere else. There really must be an awful attraction somewhere, for he never is in Lowell on the week-end. Don ' t forget us when the chimes ring, Jess. Since Jess has taken charge of the senior candy, he has been visiting Keith ' s. We wish you all the luck in the world, Jess, and with your initiative and ability you should achieve fame and fortune in the business world. 69 THE PICKOUT 1924 CHARLES ALVAH MITCHELL Somerville, Massachusetts on ' CHARLIE MITCH ALIE Baseball 4 Class Football 1, 2, 3 In the fall of 1920, Pop Olson and Mitch came up together from Somerville to enter Lowell Textile. Mitch brought with him a wonderful knack of saying things. It wasn ' t long before the fellows began to realize he was a good scout. He was always fond of playing with drafting instru- ments and so he signed up for the Engineering Course; but, later on, his admiration for Eddie Barker induced him to change to the Wool course. Here he became a shining light and an authority on cards and spinning frames. When the Freshmen drew lots for class officers, Mitch drew the presidency. This alone shows that fate has made him a marked man. Mitch has always been ready to attempt anything with a metallic ring in it. In the short four years we have known him, he has been a bell-hop, a soda clerk, an egg sales- man, a barber, a boot-black, a bootlegger, and a tailor. Herbie Ball once told him that his Textile career was one of the most remark- able of which he had ever heard. In fact, Mitch keeps all of his instructors guessing. Many a professor has tried to flunk him and failed miserably. If Mitch isn ' t studying, he ' s doing something just as useful, and that ' s saying a lot. He was married last fall and received the heartiest of congratulations from all his Textile friends. He is very good-natured and is exceedingly popular. He has always impressed us. We have admired his pleasing personality and frankness. One with his ambition can not fail to succeed in the world of business. 70 THE PICK OUT 1924 EDWARD FRANCIS MOO RE Rockford, Illinois EDDIE PUT CLEO PAVLOWA H. M. Assistant Baseball Manager 2 Pickout 2 Class Vice-President 1, 2 Assistant Instructor, Wool and Worsted Yarns From the famous shores of Lake Wabesa, came our grey-haired Pavlowa. After kissing his cat goodbye and shedding a few tears on the nightboat in his back yard, he was shipped in a glass cage to the town of good Samaritans and puddle jumpers. Since being in captivity, Plut has become quite a Beau Brummel; in fact he is a regular devil with the ladies. Yet he has found time to attend classes and has proved to be a student of no mean ability. Both his ability and his winning ways won for him the second-year wool prize and the position named above. This position really means that Plut instructs in everything that Limie and Eddie know nothing about. It is sad to relate that this talented young man will return next year to serve his masters in the same capacity. The honor of the title of Instructor has not degraded his outstanding trait - - his good nature. He is always ready to lend a hand to a mate in distress, and as a result, has won the high esteem of the class. His pursuit of textile knowledge caused Eddie to give up the managership of an excellent baseball season. Many a gay little flapper with whom Eddie has been serious, has suffered a broken heart since Dame Rumor has reported his steady visits to the lounging chair in the home of a Highland lassie. Here ' s luck to you, Plut, not that we think you need it, for with your oppor- tunities in the Lowell of the West, we know you ' ll have success, unless you lose control suddenly and become balled and chained in that state of love, honor, and obey. 71 THE PICKOUT 1924 THOMAS HORATIO MURPHY Fall River, Massachusetts TOM MURPH Textile Show 2 ' Tom came all the way from Fall River, the busy cotton center on Mount Hope Bay, to learn all he could about cotton. He is very quiet, does not have much to say, but he plugs away at his studies as if he would learn all there is to know in such a short time. Tommy fought in t he World War, and, because of this, deserves our admiration and respect. He has shown his great determination to conquer by leaving his beloved cotton city and coming here to carry on his fight for knowledge. They say our Thomas Horatio is quite an athlete. He has issued a challenge to take on all comers at golf, his favorite sport. It is said that Tom hits the ball so hard that he has to put a flag on it so that he can find it. He is also the champion tennis player of his fair city. It is quite a feat to play tennis in Fall River, for there the hills are steep and the ball is liable to roll into the bay any moment. Not much is known as to where Mr. Horatio Murphy spends the long winter evening ' s — but we can guess. Are the girls as nice in Lowell as they are in Fall River, Tommie ? However, we know that when Tom goes out into the world he will make his mark. We all wish you luck, Tommie, old boy. THE TICK OUT 19 34 CARL OSCAR OLSON West Somerville, Massachusetts on PUP OLAF POP Class Football 1 Executive Council 3, 4 President Executive Council 4 Class Treasurer 4 Baseball 1, % 3, 4 Baseball Captain 4 Football % 3, 4 Football Captain 4 Quite an imposing array. You see our friend has just loads of time to break into teas and the like. Please be serious for a moment though. We have a few words to say that are rather vital. When Pup came here four years ago, Textile was rated as a prep school when it came to athletics. Competition in intercollegiate sports was a dream. Athletic activities were participated in for the prime purpose of letting off steam. That was four years ago. Look at the teams here now. The mental comparison is eloquent enough. Consider the attitude of the student body. Although not perfect by any means as perfection is considered at an academic college, yet doubly perfect when compared with the situation here in the past. This all leads up to something; it ' s not an athletic report for the State House. There must be a reason for such a change. Undoubtedly there are several, but this we say without fear of contradiction: if you want to find the underlying cause, the prime reason, go no farther. Pup is to blame. He probably wouldn ' t admit it. He ' s like that. But regardless of what he says, we emphasize its truth. Enviable qualities must be his. They are. A leader of men in every sense of the word, a strong man, yet one who never takes the slightest resemblance of an unfair advantage over an opponent; a thorough sportsman, he cannot help but command the respect of those with whom he is associated. The world needs more of this fair play. Good old world, you ' ll be getting it, June 1924. 73 TH E PICKOUT 1024 WILLIAM ANTHONY RIVERS Montpelier, Vermont A K4 BILL WAR ' LARUP WEARY WILLIE RHODA 1,2 A. S. M. E PiCKOUT 2 Class Secretary 2 Text 2, 3 Basketball Manager 4 Rams 3, 4 Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4 Four years ago this piece of foreign matter was found walking around town with bare feet and with hay sticking out of his collar. He was not trusted alone, for when picked up, he and the other member of the immigrant legion (Ken Smith) were busying themselves by looking over the city babes who were to them strange animals. In Bill ' s four years in the city he has become quite a sheik. He has the ability of being able to win most every fellow ' s cherie away from him and this has been proved in many cases. His love for the fairer ones goes out to more than one section of the country. In school, Lamp has shown himself to be quite a shining light. He is another student who receives the honorary degree for German. He was an engineer for a couple of years, but it meant such a loss of sleep that he changed over to a course of revolutionizing the worsted industry under the close supervision of John Lowe, the industry ' s foreign diplomat. Considerable credit is due to Bill, for he has shown to the school an excellent basketball schedule. His year of management has introduced the name of our institution to new fields of conquest. Bill, you ' re going out into the business world now; we hope you won ' t sleep until noon every day. We feel confident that wherever you select to carry out your work in your chosen field, you ' ll find only success. Go to it, you ' ve got us all in back of you. 74 THE P I C K U T 1924 HAROLD NELSON RUNNELLS Concord, New Hampshire on bunny Alembic Society 1, 2 A. A. T. C. C. 3.. 4 Let every wind be hushed that I may hear The wondrous things he tells the world. Four years ago, Bunny left his home up in the wilds of New Hampshire and ventured down to Lowell, in order to become a textile student. He found it rather difficult to decide which nation- ality he would rather live with, but finally chose the French. We often hear of that far away place of Con- cord, N. H.; for Bunny returns home each week-end. If the trains do not run at the time he wishes, he just jumps on his two-wheel racing car, and in no time he is riding those cow-paths of the northern city. In winter, he often straps on his snowshoes and away he flies into the wilderness. This is just fun for Bunny, for he spends all his spare time in discovering new places around the suburbs of Lowell. On these hikes he meets many fair damsels, but they do not bother him for the only girls which interest him are those raised in the north country. Bunny has a very congenial manner and a cordial smile. He makes a fellow feel that he is an interested and sympathetic listener. Everyone likes him. We now call him Bunny, but it will not be long before it will be Mr. Harold Runnells, B. T. C, Chief Chemist and Colorist of some huge mill. ?5 THE PICKOUT 1924 MILLARD KENNETH THOMAS RYAN Natick, Massachusetts (J, IF Manager Baseball 4 Executive Council 4 Pickout 4 ken KID Class Football 2, 3 Class Basketball 2, 3 Textile Show 3, 4 Ken came to us from that big sporting town of Natick. With great ambitions he directed his steps to L. T. S. to register under Pop Olney ' s guardianship as a chemist. Ken wasn ' t long in finding out that chemistry was indeed a task, having its ups and downs, and that at times it seemed to broaden into other fields which were solely obstacles; so at the end of his first sophomore term he decided that he would get along much better with wool. Under the sheltering wing of Eddie he has become a true wool man. His specialty, however, was English, for he found time to take an extended course in this sub- ject, which has gained for him a wonderful knowl- edge of our native tongue. During his four years Kid has displayed active interest in all school activities, assisting as a member of the Executive Coun- cil and on the Pickout board. His last year he has shown his ability as manager of baseball. Throughout his entire course, Ken has lived in Lowell and has always seemed to be at home; but he has a winning way which has gained him many friends — especially among the fairer sex. Ken has plans for revolutionizing the wool industry, when he leaves Textile, and if we are to judge from his personality, and his athletic and social activities at L. T. S., we can, on bidding him good-bye, assure him of the best of luck. 7G T II E PICKOUT 19 2 4 FRANK KENFIELD SMITH Montpelier, Vermont FLAPPER KEN PIFFLE ' Captain Basketball 3, 4 Class Baseball 1, 2, 3 Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4 Football 1, 2, 3, 4 True to the prediction of the Montpelier Argus, which had press-agented our Kenfield in glowing terms, the four years he has spent at Tex- tile have not been wasted — athletically, of course. Being a member of the far-famed woolen course, under Professor Barker, he has been somewhat handicapped, but after hurdling a few obstacles, such as English and Steam, he has emerged tri- umphant. Ken has been our mainstay in basket- ball since his first year, being one of the finest players ever to represent Textile — fast, shifty, and possessing a remarkable eye which has made him the best shot on the team, and always a threat to his opponents. His quiet, unassuming manner has won such popularity with the players that he has been captain for the last two years. It has been said that Ken has spent approximately 3,462 hours going back and forth from a certain house on Moody Street. Whether more or less, we do not know, but we are sure that he is in safe company. With such a personality, and such evident qualities of leadership, it is a certainty that Ken will be a business success — even bigger than he has been at Textile. 77 THE PICKOUT 1 924 WILLIAM GEORGE STAINTON Bradford, Massachusetts $W bill Commuters ' Club Assistant Instructor Design Department From the little town of Bradford, Mass., Where the Merrimac River flows, Came Bill Stainton, a quiet lad. To the college that he chose. Bill has been with us for three solid years now, and to his credit let it be said that never once has he been called before the Faculty to be dis- ciplined, but for all of that, he is a fun-loving youth, and his classmates have just as high a regard for him as have the faculty members. He came to L. T. S. as a disciple of Heinie Bachmann, and so well has he adhered to the tenets of that illustrious gentleman and scholar that his senior year at Textile finds him explaining the intricacies of Design and cloth analysis to the night classes. Needless to say, commuting and teaching, plus the time required to maintain his own excellent scholastic standing, is enough to use up the excess energy of an ordinary man; but no, — Thrice a week, William George Stainton cruises over to Ward Hill where a warm welcome awaits him. So you see, gentle reader, we have our Beau Brummels and Sheiks in every conceivable spot. However, all fooling aside, Bill ' s just a good, old, regular guy, beloved by all who know him, and here ' s hoping he tackles the grim problems of life with the same vim and vigor he has displayed at Textile. 78 THE FICKOIT 19-24 GEORGE HAMILTON SWEENEY Cambridge, Massachusetts sweeney joseph g. Hamilton Introducing G. Hamilton Joseph Sweeney, one of Erin ' s noble sons, who, at an early age, left for the promised land of intellectual advantages and bootlegging. Upon arriving one beautiful fall day at Southwick Hall, our hero temporarily abandoned his great and noble ideals, and started in his course by relieving the boys Gf all their pennies on the marble steps behind the great iron gates. After this event our hero further showed his mettle by signing up for the engineering course. Two years convinced him of his mistake, however, and now he is finishing Eddie ' s far-famed course. During his sojourn at the institution on the banks of the mighty Merrimack, our fantastic, flowery gentleman from the university precincts has made many friends who were his staunch supporters in many an escapade. G. Hamilton ' s natural talent has been clearly evidenced in the classroom on many occasions. Gentlemen, George is also a mean stepper. Many a party has been greatly enlivened by his mere presence. His nonchalant, winning manner has made many a feminine heart flutter. If you don ' t believe us, ride up in the train some morning. The Normal School girls will surely miss George next year. What is their loss, however, is another ' s gain. For ' tis said that George ' s heart is pledged to the fair — . Congratulations, old man. Au revoir, dear pal, with a thousand toasts to your real heart. As Textile ' s loss you are a shining ace. And long ere another can fill your place. 79 THE PICKOUT 19 24 THEODORE HOLDEN THOMAS Bennington, Vermont 4 P ANCHOR TED LAMBKIN Class Basketball 1, 2, 3 Class Baseball 1, 2, 3 Class Football 1, 2, 3 Class Secretary 2 Class Treasurer 2 Football 2 Textile Show 1, 2 Bennington, the battle ground of America, the heart of the Berkshires, the pride of all true Vermonters thus speaks Ted, the official press agent for that sterling town. As the little blue sign: See the World thru a Porthole, was irresist- ible to our hero, he signed up to man Uncle Sam ' s Navy. For three years Ted manicured decks, polished brass, and wound up by becoming a mem- ber of the championship race-boat crew of the Pacific Fleet. From these alluring duties he sought out the Textile School, where more work and less play makes Jack a bright boy. After trying a little cf Professor Eddie Barker ' s wool course, Ted de- cided to make sheep his life study, being passion- ately fond of li ' l ewe lambkins. Ted is musically inclined, possessing a remarkable voice and an unerring taste for Victrola records. No one is happier — even in his most jovial mood --than Ted when sitting in front of a pail of salt water with an oar in his hand - - while the Victrola plays his favorite piece, Over the Waves. Ted upheld his class in football, playing three years for the team. He is far renowned for his wonderful dancing ability, being known among the fair sex as the Dancing Master. Ted ' s sincere, cheerful character has won him a host of friends while at school, and there is none who can boast of a truer friend than Ted. The rumors of an affair of long standing were finally substantiated when Ted ' s engagement was announced. May his future years be as bright and successful as we may well wish them to be. 80 T II E r I ( ' KOI T 1 !) 2 4 I) A V I 1) A L B E R T T R T S K Y New York, New York ' DAVE RED TROT PSST Class Football 1, 2, 3 Basketball 2, 3 Who am I?

The appeals of Textile were too strong for our hero, however, and, having decided that if he was going to improve the industry to any great extent he would do well to return, he came back to the fold to take up once more the duties of showing the instructors how to do their work. However busy Red has been, he has found time for many of the school activities. He has been a valuable member of the basketball team and is always ready for a class scrap or game. Red feels that as an actor he is right there, and he was right on hand as usual when the call came for actors last year, or shall we say actresses? One thing is sure: no matter where the crowd or how large, you can always pick him out. We wonder why. Now that Dave is about to leave us, we all wish him the best of luck in his new field of endeavor. Certain are we that he will be a success at whatever he attempts.

E. % 3, 4 Delegate to Convention, 3, 4 The accompanying likeness tells the whole story eloquently: — Safe — Capable — Square — a man whose friendship is something to be proud of. We said safe. Nothing radical or unsound was ever committed. We said dependable. One always has a feeling of satisfaction whenever he gets Bill to do anything for him. He knows it will be done, and well. We said square. Did anyone ever know Bill to try to put anything over ? Briefly, that ' s the lad above. He came here from Bordentown Military Institute. With him was a Lozier. They ' ve been together ever since. The latter ails occasionally, and Pancho proves himself to be an excellent M. D. The high lights in his life here may be listed as The time he got stuck outside Hartford, coming back from New York. The day he passed English. The game he made the Colby line look pathetic. The day he will graduate. His social career has been peculiar. We don ' t know just what he has done along those lines. You see, he ' s the only fellow we ' d trust our best girl with and, well, he isn ' t at all talkative, neither is the girl. We ' re not specifically wishing him good luck for the simple reason that he won ' t need it to get along. He ' s just one of the persons who makes the breaks for himself, not waiting for them to come along. When Pancho graduates the school will have lost some one real. A gentleman in every way, a credit to the profession of engineering, he will find his place among the leaders.

VIL FROG MAV COMPOOP MARICE Pickout Board 2, 3 Athletic Council % 3 Freshman Football After graduating from Dorchester High in 1915 Vil entered the wool trade. When the U. S. entered the war, Vil enlisted in the Marines. He served for a year and a half and then prepared for Lowell Textile at Berkeley Prep. It is quite a task to enter a school and carry the heavy schedule which is required at Textile, after being so long out of school, as Vill was, but he has done himself credit. Many are the gallons of midnight oil which he has burned, mastering the mule, boilers, and dyeing. Vil is never seen without his pipe, and with a hat. When it gets very cold out he wears a cap, but usually he goes around in a wool shirt. Vil was told to run a lot through the mixer. He spent nearly an hour running around asking everyone where the mixer was, and he was quite surprised to find out that it was a gill box. There is one little thing that has puzzled him all the way through college -- why is the woolen spinning machine called a mule ? Nevertheless, Vil has high ambitions. Upon graduating from Textile, he is planning on going to France to further his education. More power to you, Vil. 83 THE PICKOUT 1924 RICHARD FARMER WOOD Concord, Massachusetts on DICK OSCAR Football 1, 2, 3, 4 Captain of Football 4 Dick Wood drove into Lowell in the fall of 1922 via the B. M. Railroad. As his middle name indicates, he was a real farmer. The Sun building was to him a source of wonder. However, his course at Textile has made a remarkable change. Dick is now a man of the world. He is of athletic build and the first year found him working on the gridiron. The following year he was an outstanding player, his ability unequaled. A proof is found in the fact that he is to be captain of the next eleven. We are all sure that under him the team will be unbeatable. What is so rare as a day in June? Answer: To see Dick study. Yet he does study. He never cuts a class at Keith ' s Lab. However he always comes out on the passing side of his college subjects. Dick ' s line of stories and wit is immeasurable. He rivals the best in the nightly Bull Fests. He is house manager of the fraternity. Under his care the house is kept as warm as an icehouse. However, he promises to heat the house during the months of July and August. He thinks the furnace is a refrigerator, feeding it with ice- bergs instead of black diamonds. He claims that when an automatic stoking system is installed which can be operated by means of push buttons from bed, he will raise cocoanut palms in the dining room. As a friend and pal, one would have to search the wide world over to find one that would surpass Dick. His disposition is such that a pleasant atmosphere always exists in his presence. His smile is a part of him. Such a man cannot help climbing the ladder of success. We all wish him the best of luck in his life ' s work. 84 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 LeROY z I o c k Rockford, Illinois Class Football 1 COWBOY ZOCK TOM MIX BIG BOY ROY ' Twas a sad day for the boys of B. Z. B. when Roy east aside the lariat, spurs, chaps, and trusty six shooter to come to the land of the shooting shuttle. Speeding across the country aboard the 20th Century, the youth dreamed of the new land he was about to enter — the land on the banks of the Merrimack, so cherished by the Indians. Roy ' s only regret during his college years is, that he has failed to find any Indians except the old wooden one down at Fitz ' s tobacco shop, which most of us hold in sacred memory since its fatal plunge into the Canal. Wool manufacturing was Roy ' s aim at Textile, and throughout his course he has hit the mark — excepting a few random shots at Me and Espan- shade as well as German; but this will never hinder Zock in making himself understood. Roy agrees with Mac and Gilly that Lowell has its quota, and then some, of the fair sex; but Western stories, bowling, and an occasional Cloth Estimate seem to monopolize his time, making it impossible for him to attend the various social functions at the Vesper Yacht Club. Soon, we expect to see this promising young textile man associated with those who are responsible for the success which the Burson-Ziock-Brown and The Rock- ford Mitten and Hosiery Mills enjoy today. Now that your school career has ended, Roy, and you are back to the city of your choice, we wish you the best of luck. c -3 r3 tn Q7 D%!= 2 cd +_ . o o 55 -r -o c Q .

How proud we were in our best regalia when we signed up in the library, - but how sad we were when President Eames broke the cruel news to us that, for 90 THE PICK OUT 19 24 the rest of the morning, the Sophs would gladly show ns the sights of Lowell! Silk socks were never made to wade through the muddy streets of Lowell; neither were silk shirts made to receive the odorous offerings sent by the Sophs while making our way down Merrimack Street and delivering our speeches on Page ' s clock. However, our spirits were not quenched. Our banquet showed our cleverness in that the Sophomores had no inkling of the affair until they heard us parading through the streets in a snake dance. Their president then congratulated us on our deceptions. Although we were outclassed in football and basketball, we still showed our Textile spirit by giving a Christmas dance that not only provided the School with the best social event of the year, but also aided the Athletic Association financially, to a considerable extent. Examinations told heavily on some of our members, but others held up the scholastic ability of the class. Fraternal matters next claimed our attention, and then the Musical Comedy (which was the biggest of its kind held by the school) included some of our class in its ranks. Soon came the Finals, which took our undivided attention until the close of the year. The next fall we had the great pleasure of entertaining our new guests, the Freshmen. They will never forget that wondrous and exciting morning. Later, the Freshmen endeavored to remove our numerals from the Textile Rock, but after repeated punishments in the way of midnight rides and walks they desisted, and our numerals remained undisturbed. The Freshmen defeated us in athletics, after a hard struggle. Again our Christmas dance was a successful event and especially enjoyed by the Freshmen. Mid-years came again and then, outside of the Textile Show, our activities, until the Finals, were confined to our studies. This year our ranks have been depleted and only a few of our original number still remain. When the class was reorganized we chose Milt Hindle as our president, and we resolved to show the old spirit of the class of 1925. Our athletic talent is very much limited and because of this we were unable to have our football and swimming teams for competition with the other classes. Nevertheless, in scholastic ability we rank high and if our class holds to its present standing it will leave a record that will be a credit to the School and to the Class of ' 25. Parker H.

Swain Samuel Meeker President Vice-President Secretary- Treasurer Executive Council igtovy of tfje opfjomore Cla s There is a history in all men ' s lives. Our individual histories began when we first entered this world; but our history, that of the Glass of 1926, did not begin until Monday, September 26, 1922. It was upon this day that we met together as a class. After we had registered, we were greeted by President Eames in the Assembly Hall. He delivered a short speech upon the o ld L. T. S. spirit, and then he informed us that the Sophomores wanted to meet us. They surely met us, for we were then escorted downstairs to 96 THE PICKOUT 19 24 the quadrangle where the Sophomores gently but firmly ordered us to take off our shoes and turn our eoats inside out. Then they started us on a tour of the city, which ended in Merrimack Square. Here we gathered round Page ' s clock, the history of which has gone down in the history of every class. Several of our class- mates were forced to climb the clock and deliver speeches and sing songs for the pleasure of the upper classmen and the noonday shoppers who had gathered to see the stunts of the Freshmen. That entertainment lasted for about one-half hour, and then the inarch back to the campus was the next number on the Sophomores ' program. On our arrival back at school we tried to regain our ' Tost shoes. Some of us fared better than others, for some who had old shoes before, found out that new shoes had been substituted for the old ones. Then we were informed that we were full-fledged Freshmen. Our first day at Lowell Textile School, which was quite eventful, was now ended. Soon after the opening day another class meeting of a different sort was held in 361 for the purpose of electing our class officers. The president of the Sophomore class acted as moderator. He bade us take notice of the Sophomore rules that greeted us at every turn in the different buildings of the school and warned us not to attempt to break them lest we be broken. After his short but explicit speech the names of all the Freshmen were put in a hat and our temporary class officers were elected by lot. On October the eleventh, the Freshman class again held another class meeting for the election of permanent officers for the year. The result of the election was that Harry M. Sutcliffe was elected president, Herbert B. Perry, Jr., vice-president, Cyril V. Moore, treasurer, and Douglas O. Lees, secretary. We were then organized, and, as the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. Some of us dared to disobey the rules laid down by the Sophomores, by not wearing our caps and by wearing white linen knickers and prep school insignia. This pleased the Sophs, for the members of the Thirteen Club, a Sophomore organization, took those of us who had disobeyed their rules for a number of long rides out into the country and left us to walk home, so that we might enjoy the scenery and think over the sins we had committed. Just a week later we were given a reception by the members of the faculty in the Assembly Hall. This was an occasion long to be remembered by us; for it, in a sense, gave us renewed courage and we felt that instead of being slaves to the Sophomores, we were just as much entitled to be free men and enjoy the liberties that they enjoyed. There were many games that the instructors had on the program which kept us entertained. The winner of each game or event was well paid for his work, because each winner received a suitable souvenir. Martie Simpson was the high scorer of the evening. After the games, we were entertained by a vaudeville act from Keith ' s. After this we were served with refreshments. Then we expressed our 97 THE PICKOUT 1924 appreciation of the reception and thanked all of the members of the faculty most heartily for the good time that they afforded us. It was after the reception that the class in a body set out to paint our numerals on Textile Rock and also on the canal wall. We were successful in our attempt. This encouraged us so that we went around to the different fraternity houses and jeered the Sophomores. If we had not had the whole class with us there probably would have been a riot, but as it was, the Sophs were content to stay in and perhaps stuff their ears with cotton. During this time we were gaining ground, for now the Sophomores had prac- tically given up trying to make us wear our caps and follow their rules. Our next class encounter with the Sophs was upon the fourteenth of November. It was upon this day that we tied the Sophomore football team 6-6. Bob Par- kin of the Sophs and Whit Goodwin of the Freshies scored the touchdowns. Ten days later we battled the class of 1925 again upon the gridiron and this time we won by a 7-0 score. On December seventh the interclass basketball series was played. The Fresh- man team swamped the Sophomores by a 21-9 score. Also the Seniors defeated the Juniors on the same day 22-4. This left the Seniors and Freshmen to play for the championship of the school. The championship game was played on the fourteenth of December at the Y. M. C. A. It was very appropriate that the final game be played Textile Night. The game between the Freshmen and Seniors was the feature event of the T. C. A. ' Y night. The Freshmen, as expected, won from the Seniors in a hard and clean played game by a 28-16 margin. There also was a swimming meet in which the Freshmen were easily victorious. As a result of the Freshmen supremacy in foot- ball, basketball, and swimming, the Textile Chris tian Association presented the class of 1926 with a silver loving cup. We were next busy with mid-year exams. Now that they are over and for- gotten, we can say that the Freshmen class as a whole did very well in them. Just after mid-years fraternal matters occupied our attention for a few weeks. Soon rushing, pledging, and initiation periods were over and once more we could settle down to our studies. However, not for long could the studies keep us in nights, for many young, good-looking chorus girls were wanted for the annual musical show. Many of the Freshmen either were in the cast or else had some connection with the management. This was the final social event of the year. It can be said of our class that the socials of the year were well attended by the class of 1926. Along with the closing of college also came the closing of athletics. In ath- letics many of the Freshman class won their varsity T ' s in football, basketball and baseball. 98 THE PICKOUT 19 24 Fall seemed to come too quickly for some of us, but regardless of that we were all glad to he back at L. T. S. We lost no time in gathering the class of 1927 together on Registration Day and subjecting the new Freshmen to the trials and tribulations through which we had lived. As usual, there was the parade to Page ' s clock; and then a period of about three or four weeks when first 1926 would stand out in large white numerals upon ' ' Textile Rock for about a day and then the next day the six would be changed to a seven. The process of changing the numerals was repeated nightly and on several occasions several of the freshies were taken for enjoyable rides into the country that they might be familiarized with the beauty of the sur- rounding country on their walk back to Lowell. This year the class of 1926 was again victorious in its football games. First we succeeded in defeating the Freshmen 18-0. We also played and won a very evenly matched game from the Seniors by a 6-0 score. This gave the Sophomore class the football championship of the college again. On November fifteenth it was found out that the Freshmen were to hold their banquet that night. Bill Smith, our class president, had been warned that the Freshmen might try to capture him and take him to their banquet. Through a forged note, he was called to the office. While on his way to the office he was cap- tured and taken to the banquet hall where he was handcuffed to the radiator. The Sophomores soon learned of the capture and started out to find him. We did not find him that afternoon, but by fate, or by whatever you wish to call it, we happened to run across Perk McGuire, the president of the Freshman class. A chase followed and finally he was overtaken and held captive until the banquet was over. It was during the banquet that the place of the Freshman festivities was discovered. The Sophomores attempted to break up their banquet, but were unable to do so on account of the police protection which the Freshmen had. Several of the class of 1927 had been apprehended, and we finally obtained our president back by trading one of the members of the 1927 class for Bill Smith. The next class affair with the Freshmen was at the Y. M. C. A. on the T. C. A. ' Textile Night. Here the Freshman basketball team pinned a 26-16 defeat on the Sophomores. So far this year all parties have been well attended by the Sophomores. This Spring a Sophomore-Freshman dance has been planned, and it is hoped that each year this social event will be carried out. Mid-years have again passed, and now the class of 1926 is looking forward to become bigger and better, not only in athletics and socials, but also in academic work. Philip E.

Executive Council Jfrestfjtnan Oaste tstorp It was the twenty-fourth day of September that the Freshman class, arrayed in all their Sunday finery, assembled at the Lowell Textile School. This they did in order that they might sign their lives away. A curious lot w ere they, for among them there were tiny ones, tall and lean ones, one who was exceedingly plump, and then too, a fair maiden, demure and shy. 104 THE PIT K OUT 1924 After the motley multitude had put their life history on two cards, they were taken in hand by the rough Sophomores, who deprived them of their shoes, which were put in two wheelbarrows. This accomplished, the Freshmen were arranged in a single line. In this manner they were marched down the main stem of the city, preceded by the wheelbarrows containing the shoes. There seemed to be some discontentment among the ranks, for there were always some who hied themselves for parts unknown, always to be brought back by the ever persuasive paddle. It was not long before this small procession had reached a section where fruit lay about in abundance. The Sophs took advantage of this opportunity and using the pink necks of the Freshmen as their objectives, hurled the fruit with precision and force. The Sophs soon tired of this sport, and speeches were demanded. Several of the more learned Freshmen gave orations from Page ' s clock. The procession then turned toward the school, and after a couple of turns around the oval their first day was over. During the first hour of the following day the Freshmen were given an address of welcome from President Eames. He expressed the hope that each of those present would be successful throughout his school career. Freshman rules and caps were sold to the Freshmen, the proceeds greatly en- riching the coffers of the Sophomore treasury. But as everything else has its day, so was it with the caps and rules; for they were soon forgotten. The numerals of the Sophomore class soon caught their eyes, and it was not long before the Freshman n umerals took their place. These numerals were changed many times, but finally the Freshmen were victorious and 1927 Forever was allowed to stand out in bold white letters. When the Freshmen had become fairly well acquainted, they were brought to- gether by the Sophomores, in order that they might elect a temporary president. They were also told how every year previous Freshmen classes had held secret banquets, and had had football teams to contend with those of the Sophs. Names were placed in a hat, from which the name of E. Perkins McGuire was drawn. They were then left to themselves and arrangements were made for the banquet and football team. Doc Noyes having been chosen football captain, gathered together all the material he could, and set them to practicing. After there had been a few days of practice they met the Sophs in a hard fought game, in which the Sophs were vic- torious 18-0. The first score was made in the first half when Currier recovered a fumble and ran for a touchdown. Although the score does not show it, the game was not one-sided, and the Sophs felt they had achieved something when the game was over. All the time the football team had been practicing, the banquet committee had been busy collecting subscriptions. The date of the banquet (November 15) 105 THE PICKOUT 1924 was held secret by the committee until that day had arrived. This day was planned to come on the same day as the football game. The capture of Bill Smith, the Sophomores ' president, was accomplished by sending him a forged note from the office. As he passed through the corridors he was pounced on by seven stalwart Freshies, who bound and gagged him. In this manner he was carried in Shadow Bentley ' s Ford to the banquet hall, where he was handcuffed to a radiator. While McGuire was doing some work on the banquet during the afternoon, he was captured by the Sophomores, but still the plans went on, and about half past six the Freshmen began to arrive. Some came through side alleys and side doors, and others up fire escapes. They were honored by the presence of President Eames, Professor Ball, and Mr. James Guthrie Dow. Dinner was served at half past seven. Everybody was happy until the banquet hall was discovered by the Sophomores. A rumpus followed, in which guns were drawn and police called, before whom the Sophs retreated. Half way through the meal, McGuire and Smith were exchanged and the banquet was resumed. After dinner there were songs and speeches. The election of officers followed. The results were: E. Perkins McGuire, president; Charles Fredrickson, vice-president; Har- graves Heap, Jr., secretary; Edward L. Wingate, Jr., treasurer. A snake dance to the square followed. This too, was interrupted by the police, after trolleys of electric cars were removed from the wires and the square starter was set firmly down on the pavement. This ended the night and everybody went home with a feeling of accomplishment and growing class spirit. Textile Night at the Y. M. C. A. gave the Freshmen a chance to even up the football defeat. This they did by defeating the Sophomores in basketball, the final score being 26 to 16. Greenwood, Kenney, and Supple starred for the Freshmen. This victory renewed the growing class spirit and encouraged the Freshmen to uphold their motto, 1927 FOREVER. Edward L.

With a total of four victories and four defeats the team may well be satisfied. The schedule was an ambitions one, calling for games with teams much more experienced and with far more opportunity for practice. It was unfortunate that the team had to tackle as good a team as Tufts at the very beginning of the season, when the men were not in proper condition and lacked practice. The splendid showing made against such teams as Trinity and Providence was due to the fighting spirit shown by the team against faster and better men. The team found itself against Worcester, piling up the largest score made against that team in years. St. Michael ' s was swamped by a large score in a fast game. The New Hampshire game holds no alibis for we were beaten by an unquestionably better and more experienced team. In the Providence game, which was fast and rough, we lost several of our best men through injuries, which proved too big a handicap to overcome. The last game of the season with the U. S. Coast Guard team of New London proved clean and hard fought, our team winning after a great battle. Considering the short hours which we have for practice and the lack of proper training facilities the results were very satisfactory. Under the able coaching of Arthur Ball and John Danahy the team rounded out a good season. In addition to the veterans from last year ' s team the Freshmen showed up very well, having at least five men on the team all season. With a large number of letter men back next fall we may look for a very successful season. textile bsi. uftsi — September 29 Lowell Textile ' s football team started off its 1923 season by receiving a 25-0 defeat at the hands of the faster and more experienced Tufts team at Medford. Contrary to what the score may indicate the game was not one-sided, but was filled with spectacular plays. Textile had only about a week ' s practice before the game and was in no condition to tackle such a team as Tufts. Textile presented a well-nigh impenetrable defense and held the Tufts men to small gains through the line. As Tufts was unable to gain a single first down on line plunges, they resorted to the aerial game which proved greatly to its advantage. Textile had only a few days for signal practice and therefore presented little or no defense against this method of attack. In the first quarter Tufts tried short line bucks which failed to gain the re- quired distance. Tufts punted to Brigham who ran the ball back five yards; an 117 THE PICKOUT 1924 off tackle play, with Olson carrying, gained three yards. After several line buck s had failed, Brigham punted and French, catching the ball on the 15-yard line, made eight yards before being stopped by Sunstrom. The ball then exchanged hands several times, with neither side gaining much ground. The second quarter, Tufts opened up her game with more success — flashy runs by Eitelman and French brought the ball to Lowell Textile ' s 10-yard line, where a pass, French to Eitelman, brought the first score. On the kickoff Tufts ran back fifteen yards and gained fifteen more on the next play by a pass over the line. Eitelman then broke loose for the longest run of the game for a touchdown. French dropped the ball over for the additional point. The second half was merely a repetition of the first, with Lowell showing flashes of latent power in the third period when they advanced to Tufts ' 20-yard line, only to lose the ball on a fumble. A large number of substitutes were made in the last quarter, due to lack of condition. Final score: Tufts 25; Textile 0. textile tog. General Clectric Crabe cbool — 0tt 6 Lowell Textile started off its home season by handing out a 13-0 defeat to General Electric Trade School before a large crowd. The score by no means tells the story of the game, as the visitors were at all times outclassed. Textile did all its scoring in the first half when it scored in each quarter. Home for the visitors kicked off to the 10-yard line, and McKinstry aided by clever interference ran the ball back to mid-field. Textile started its procession for its first score. The line opened large holes and the backs broke through consistently for large gains. A punt by Wood put the ball deep in the visitors ' territory. Gen- eral Electric attempted to gain through the line, but found the same stubborn oppo- sition that Tufts found the Saturday before, and could gain no ground through the line. A fumble by the visitors was recovered by Textile and straight line bucks brought the ball to the 1-yard line. Captain Olson then went through guard for the first touchdown. The try for the extra point by drop-kick went wide. General Electric kicked off again and Textile nearly scored by long end runs, only to lose the ball by a fumble when within scoring distance. In the second quarter when Lynn ' s attempt to punt was blocked by Bentley, the visitors gained first down by falling on the ball. Hard tackling by the Textile ends, Woods and Guild, forced General Electric team back until the ball was on their 15-yard line. Guild then blocked another punt and, picking up the ball, sprinted over for another score. Olson added another point by a perfect drop-kick. The third quarter was devoid of any spectacular play, Textile holding General Electric repeatedly for downs. In the fourth quarter Wood attempted a drop kick 118 o o 05 o B ' % -a o o O d, u a . a -o a — CO ' 3 2 b xz. b Cos i « o B - eS cc c3 ' O h i , e3 ? e eS E _- C 0j pa -d o .

Ixinitp — October 1 3 Trinity, with a fast, well-balanced team proved too strong for Textile, and aided by several breaks, won 20-0. Lowell Textile started off with a rush and after the kickoff made first down on straight line bucks through Trinity ' s team. At the beginning of the game Textile ' s guards and tackles opened up large holes for the backs. Textile marched up the field for successive gains until near the Trinity goal line, when the ball was lost on downs. Trinity took no chances and punted on the first play. The remainder of this period, line plunges alternated with punts. The Textile back-field showed up well in this period. In the second quarter Textile opened up its aerial game, gaining considerable distance, the longest being a toss of twenty yards. Trinity then gained possession of the ball after a grounded pass. Captain Kennedy and Keating, Trinity full-back, then tore off long runs. Keating succeeded in throwing off three tacklers and running thirty yards for a touchdown. A forward pass to Ken- nedy over the goal line gave Trinity its extra point. Another score came when a forward pass thrown over the goal line was juggled by members of both teams, finally settling in Daley ' s arms for six more points. Another forward pass brought the additional point. In the third period Textile again made a march down the field only to lose the ball on downs when near the goal line. Fumbles and confusion on plays then proved Textile ' s undoing. Trinity, upon gaining possession of the ball, immediately kicked, bringing the ball to midfield. Line plunges by both teams were tried with indifferent success. Trinity then punted a high to Brigham who could not get under it, and consequently waited for it to bounce. The ball bounded off in an opposite direction, was fumbled by a Textile man, and scooped up by one of the Trinity team. Several short line bucks and a seven-yard forward across the goal line completed the scoring. Final score: Trinity 20; Textile 0. textile b£. Worcester — October 20 Lowell Textile defeated Worcester Polytechnic at Lowell in a one-sided contest. The margin of superiority may best be shown by the number of first downs made — fourteen for Textile against five for Worcester. This was the best game played by 120 THE PICKOUT 1924 Lowell Textile this season and was full of brilliant runs, spectacular tackles, and a tine offense. The confident Worcester team was outclassed. Showing tremendous improvement, the Textile team plunged through the Worcester line at will. Cap- tain Olson furnished the feature plays of the day when he went over the Worcester goal line three times, also scoring one point after a touchdown by a drop-kick. Great credit also goes to the line, which charged with drive and power, showing a tremendous improvement over their former work by opening up large holes for the backs. Textile kicked off, dropping the Worcester back on the 35-yard line. Wor- cester, unable to gain, was soon forced to punt. Spectacular gains of fifteen and twenty yards brought the ball to the Worcester 20-yard line. A penalty on the visitors brought the ball to the 10-yard line and on the next play Olson went over for the first score. Olson also kicked the goal for the extra point. Worcester kicked of f and Olson ran the ball back twenty-five yards to the opponents ' 30-yard line. After repeated gains, an exchange of punts followed. Textile again recovered the ball when Woods dropped on a Worcester fumble. McKinstry then ran twenty yards along the edge of the field to the Worcester 15-yard line. After repeated gains on straight line bucks, Olson went over for another touchdown. The try for point after touchdown failed. In the next period Worcester made five first downs by straight line play, Bod- well, Worcester fullback, being responsible for most of the gains. Worcester lost their chance to score when C. Woods tackled a Worcester back behind the line for a 5-yard loss. Ken Smith then intercepted a forward, running twenty yards to mid-field. In the last period Textile opened up its game and made another touch- down by this means, Olson going over for the third and last score of the game. Final score: Textile 19; Worcester 0. textile bss. g t. jUtcfjaete — (Pctober 27 St. Michaels was defeated by straight driving football in a fast, well-played game. The line and back-field showed great improvement, working so well together that three touchdowns were made in the first half. Textile had also improved greatly on the defensive, driving back-thrusts at the line time after time w T ith no gain. On the kickoff to St. Michaels the receiver fumbled, Antulonis scooping the ball up and sprinting twenty-five yards for a touchdown. Olson failed to kick the goal. St. Michaels kicked off, Textile gaining fifteen yards by the run back. Long runs by Olson and McKinstry brought the ball to St. Michaels 15-yard line, and McKinstry took the ball over on a sweeping end run. Olson dropped the ball be 121 THE PICKOUT 1924 tween the uprights for the extra point. In the second period, Textile sent her backs through guard and tackle positions for long gains to the St. Michaels 15-yard mark. Olson in two plays put the ball over and kicked the goal after touchdown. The St. Michaels team came back full of fight and opened up their game in the third quarter, making five successful downs by their forward passing. They failed to advance when within Textile ' s 20-yard line, losing the ball on downs. Heavy plunges off the tackles and around the ends by Textile ' s back-field marked another long march down the field to the opponents ' goal, where Olson again took the ball over for another score, and also kicked the goal. In the closing minutes of the third quarter, Bentley, Textile ' s 240-lb. center, scooped up a fumble and plunged ten yards through St. Michaels ' team for another touchdown. Carter went in at quarter for Lowell, and the Textile attack was opened up. A steady march of forty yards in which trick plays went for big gains, brought the ball to the 5-yard line, Carter going through right guard for the final score. A short interchange of punts, and the whistle blew, ending the game. Final score: Textile 39; St. Michaels 0. textile to . J8. . Matt College Jgobember 3 Textile put up a hard battle against a much faster and more experienced team on a muddy field, which was greatly to our disadvantage. The New Hampshire back-field was extremely fast and their line heavy and too experienced for our smaller men to stop. On the opening kick-off Brigham caught the ball, running it back eight yards before being downed. The Textile back-field was unable to get started due to the slippery condition of the field, losing the ball on downs. Went- worth then plunged through left guard for six yards. A forward gained twenty, and on the next play Went worth slipped around end for a touchdown, kicking the goal. Textile kicked and New Hampshire, using open formation and a clever passing game, again plunged down the field for a touchdown, and Wentworth again made the additional point. Textile then chose to receive and began a short march which ended on the New Hampshire thirty -five yard line. The field was so slippery it was impossible for Textile ' s backs to keep their feet, as they were not equipped with mud cleats. The second half was a repetition of the first, several Lowell Textile men being injured in the third quarter. The team finished the game with a good many substitutes in the lineup : Final score: New Hampshire State 47; Textile 0. 122 T HE PI C K O U T 19 2 4 textile bs. Probtbence iSobemfcer 10 Although outweighed almost to a man, Textile put up a game fight against Providence College. Breaks which seem to have played an important part in all the games lost this season again proved a help to our opponents. As far as offense and defense were concerned, the teams were evenly matched. The game was fast and rough - - Feindel, Brosnan, Villa, McKinstry and Yacubian being taken out at crucial moments on account of injuries, which handicapped the team greatly. Providence could not gain much at the outset, being thrown back by the stubborn resistance of the Textile line. At the end of the first period the score was 16-0. The third quarter Lowell gained considerable ground, but was handicapped by injuries to some of the best men. In the third quarter McGee of Providence went over for another score. At this time Textile had most of the second team on the field. Final score: Providence 22; Textile 0. textile b£. U. ft. Coasst uarb Jgobember 1 7 As St. Stephens canceled their game. Textile took on the U. S. Coast Guard team from New London in the last home game. This was a very fast, well played game, featured by heavy line plunges by the Textile back-field, and the stubborn defense of the Coast Guard team. Textile made two touchdowns but lost many opportunities to score. At the kickoff, the Coast Guard team ran the ball back only five yards, being thrown heavily by Woods. Short plunges through the line gained but a few yards, and an exchange of punts followed, with Textile getting the best of each exchange. Textile ' s first touchdown came in the third quarter. Textile had the ball on the Coast Guard ' s 45-yard line. Two line plunges by Yacubian and Olson brought the ball to the 35-yard line. Olson then took the ball through right tackle, reversed his field and ran thirty-five yards for a touchdown, also kicking the goal after touchdown. Textile kicked off again and after a few plays the whistle blew for the end of the first half. The Coast Guard team came back full of fight at the start of the third period, and made two first downs by fierce line plunges, but lost the ball on downs when within scoring distance. Textile then started another march down the field during which driving tackle plays featured. The visitors held for downs, however, on their 20-yard line. The Coast Guard team punted immediately and Goodwin ran the ball back fifteen yards. An off-tackle play gained six yards, a pass, Goodwin to Woods, making twelve more. The ball was then on the opponents ' 30-yard line. 123 THE PICKOUT 1 924 Another pass gained eight yards and Carter, who was then in at quarter, made first down through right guard. Short line plunges brought the ball within scoring distance and Olson went around end for the final score of the game. The try for point was missed by a narrow margin. Final score: Textile 13; IT. S.

Coach Ganley called out his recruits on April 1, 1923. The prospects were un- usually bright, as many of the veterans were back, and a large number of Freshmen responded to the call. The first game with Holy Cross, only eleven days away and the hardest one on the schedule, meant quite a task to overcome. earens of tbe W Macher Reynolds Brigham Olson Blanch ard Scanlon Far well, C.

J. Donovan threw out the first ball for the beginning of the Holy Cross-Lowell Textile game, which ended in a 5-5 score, after an afternoon entirely devoid of thrills or exciting plays. Holy Cross, due to the cold weather or some other reason, did not display the brand of ball that made the team famous, and while they had the game tucked away till the lucky seventh, Textile came back strong and annexed the five all important points necessary for a deadlock. Because of the lateness of the hour and the increasing frigidity, Umpire Bob Hardt called for the cessation of hostilities at the expiration of the ninth chapter, to the utmost satisfaction of the players and fans alike. For an opening game the contest was fairly good even though the Holy Cross juggernaut proved a disappointment. The team simply would not get going and there was nothing spectacular to call for enthusiasm on the part of the fans. In the box Bill Horan started for the visitors, and Ray Farwell for Textile; both boys showed the effects of an early season, premature playing, and were forced to retire before the game was over. Horan was replaced by Ownie Carroll reputed to be the best college twirler in the country, while Farwell gave way to his brother Claude. Behind the plate was Pop Olson for Textile, and Ryan for Holy Cross, and each played in mid-season form. For four full innings the game was a listless affair with neither team coining within scoring distance. In the fifth Holy Cross broke the ice by sending three men across the rubber. Ryan, first up, reached first on an error by Joy, and was sacri- ficed to the midstation by Horan, who laid down a pretty bunt in front of the plate. Cote then connected for a beautiful single at left field, a nd the hit and run play worked to perfection when Gautreau shot one down to Farwell as Ryan tore for the home sack and made it. Dugan kept up the attack with a neat swing to right center which scored Cote and Gautreau, and the inning concluded when Doherty hit into a double play, Reynolds to Scanlon to Joy. Textile ' s first runs accumulated in the seventh after Scanlon had been hit by a pitched ball and Farwell walked. Olson popped his second bingle into right field, Sullivan ' s foul flew to Ryan, and the latter, after catching this, threw it to second in an attempt to nail Olson. The throw went wild, and two runners crossed the platter as a result of what the spectators claimed was dumb baseball. The two gifts were relieved by the purple in the following stanza. An error by Macher, base on balls to Riopel, a sacrifice by Simendigger, and a clean single to 127 THE PICKOUT 1924 centre by Ryan, netted two runs; but again Textile was not to be denied and gave the Worcester collegians a scare by registering three in the eighth on bases on balls to Joy and Scanlon, and hits by McKay and Reynolds, the former a triple to deep centre. The ninth was unproductive, and play was called after Macher fanned for third out. poston Untbersittp at Hotoell A sudden damper was applied to Textile ' s hopes by the snappy Boston Uni- versity outfit. It is possible that our aggregation was a trifle overconfident. Our boys played well but failed to show the class of the previous week. All in all it was a good game but we had to be satisfied with the sm 11 end of a 7-4 score. Probtbence College at Ikobtbenee On April 21, our team was vanquished by Providence College, to the score of 7 to 3. Claude Farwell was sent in to start the game, but was shortly removed because of a sore arm, and Blanchard was sent in to take his place. Jack pitched a good game, but due to loose playing and a rally by the Rhode Islanders, the game went to Providence. Hotoell at iSortoief) Now again with a week of strong teams as opponents looming up, the Textile team was once more courting with Dame Misfortune. Ray Farwell, one of the mainstays of the mound, laid up with the grippe, was unable to make the trip. Textile lost its first game of the Vermont trip at Norwich - - not without a hard, decisive battle, however, for the game was well played and close. Captain Macher ' s home run, and the excellent pitching of Blanchard featured the contest. The final score: Norwich 3; Textile 2. Hotoell at Jfltbbleburp The second game of the trip proved successful for Textile. A well played game on both sides, with heavy hitting, featured throughout. Claude Farwell took the mound for us, and displayed wonderful dips and rises that baffled the up-staters quite a bit. Middlebury fell to defeat against the slug- ging of Macher, Sullivan, Olson, and Joy, with a final tally of 10-6. 128 is ■— 3 a; - o S5 3 p ,cj It ni 60 C 3 CO -go - o SO 60 -O -a u o ? S g 3 pq THE PICKOUT 1924 textile at Vermont Tired out and its pitching staff disabled, Textile wound up its trip by going up against the fast Vermont University team. University of Vermont, no doubt one of the best college teams of New England, was no match for us in the torn and battered shape in which our men were. How- ever, we put up a plucky fight and were able to field the ball exceptionally well, but our hitters were unable to see the style of pitching that the opposing team dis- played. At the end of the ninth the Vermonters had shut us out by a score of 10 to 0. textile at J2eto Hampshire On May 2, Textile repaid for some of the defeats handed her in the past by trimming the University of New Hampshire 6 to 5. Textile players started the fireworks in the initial trip to the bat when they tallied up four runs. In the sixth again, we began a rally which resulted in two more runs. It w as a well played game, and the boys returned home feeling cheerful, having at last captured the scalp of New Hampshire. Uermont at Hotoell Again we met the fast Vermont team, this time at Lowell. But again they were too good for us, and seemed to have solved our weak spots, for they not only shut us out, but added an extra run to the last score. Textile seemed to be afraid of the visitors, and played what is called dumb base- ball while the Vermonters made a merry-go-round of our bases. The final score reached 11-0, in favor of Vermont. Probtbence College at Hotoell The second game with Providence College was played at Lowell. Textile lost to the visitors, 6-2. We again played a loose game, not having recovered from the beating of the last game. Textile was in scoring position several times, but could not bring the runs over as the batters were unsuccessful in connecting with the ball at the right time. Valentine starred in left field, with two pert catches. Ray Reynolds con- tinued his good work at shortstop. 130 THE PICKOUT 1924 Clark College at Hotoell When all is said and done Clark College fell to a beating of 15 to 3 at the hands of the Textile nine. From the beginning the Textilites were astride the game, riding along like champions. We seemed to have gotten back that old stamina that had been lacking. For Lowell, Ray Farwell was back on the mound after his recovery from his illness. He pitched the same type of ball that he started the season with against Holy Cross, as the score undoubtedly shows. Worcester Ced) at Worcester Textile, with the same winning streak back again, added another scalp to its collection by defeating the old time rival, Worcester Tech, 10 to 7. Not without a stiff fight, however, for the game went two innings over time. Claude started the game and went well into the seventh inning when his arm began to go. Worcester scented the damage and rallied, adding three runs for a tie score. In the eleventh the Red and Black boys were getting hungry and decided to finish the tedious game with three more runs. Ray Reynolds was again the outstanding flash of the game. textile at Boston College At Newton Heights, Textile received its third whitewashing of the season from the Boston College nine. Textile showed brilliant work, but were handicapped by a hard field to play on. The heavy hitters of the Heights were too much, and we went down to defeat, 11 to 0. t. itticftaels; at Hotoell Textile wound up its season by defeating Saint Michaels 13 to 4. From the opening moment to the last play, there was no doubt of the outcome, for Textile had already planned on finishing up its baseball season in the same brilliant manner in which it began it. Ouncy Blanchard opened up the mound in fine style and pitched a wonderful game. After five innings he was replaced by Joy, as Coach Ganley feared the smoke from Jack ' s delivery would blind the invaders. The timely and heavy hitting of Olson featured the game. 131 THE PICKOUT 1924 Jgaseball 1924 Carl O. Olson Kenneth Ryan Robert Ganley Lester Cushing $a£eball 0iliicvsi Captain Manager Coach Faculty Director With the approach of spring, Textile ' s outlook in baseball looks brighter and brighter. For, with the majority of veterans returning and the reputation of last year ' s team, we should hav e a remarkable nine. Besides the wearers of the T ' we have several promising Freshmen to develop. Captain Olson predicts that Textile will have the best team that has ever represented the Red and Black. In view of the reputation established, Director Cushing and Manager Ryan have arranged a difficult schedule. Textile is favored with two trips this year, one up into the state of Maine, and the other through Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. fje g cfjebule April 9 Boston University Lowell April 12 Providence College Lowell April 15 Trinity Hartford, Conn.

This call brought out the members of last year ' s varsity and second teams, who were still with us, and also a large number of both upper classmen and Freshmen. MacLeish, formerly captain of the Harvard basketball team, had been en- gaged as coach, but unfortunately, due to injuries received during the fall, he was unable to be present. However, we were fortunate in securing the services of Donald Maclntyre, a graduate of Springfield College and a coach of wide experi- ence. Under his direction the team assumed shape and were in the best of form at the time of the first game. The schedule, which was arranged by Manager Rivers, under the capable supervision of Professor Gushing, Director of Athletics, to whom we owe much, was the hardest a Textile team has ever faced. Ye cannot give too much credit to all concerned; those who directed the team, the members of the Varsity, and the members of the second team, who have worked unceasingly for the team ' s good. Hotoell 46; Jgormal rt 10 Lowell opened its season on January 5, with the Normal Art school of Boston as opponents. Our new team showed excellent team work, outclassing the Boston outfit by their brilliant play. At no time was there any doubt as to the outcome of the game. The team as a whole played well, with Captain Ken Smith and Perry doing most of our scoring. aCuft 30; Hotoell 16 In the best and hardest fought game of the season. Tufts took our measure, and left us on the small end of the final score. It was anyone ' s game until the final few minutes, when Tufts, by brilliant shooting, piled up enough points to almost com- pletely paralyze our defense. McKinstry played well until injured. Captain Ken and Kenney also performed well. 135 THE PICKOUT 1924 Hotoell 33; JSortfjeasitern 18 Northeastern was the next team to invade our home floor seeking honors. The game was fast with our team ' s offense working fine while the visitors found it quite difficult to penetrate our five-man defense. Captain Ken was in exceptionally good form, doing most of our scoring. Sylvester furnished most of the Bostonians ' opposition. %otoell 32; Worcester ®ecj 29 On January 19, Lowell journeyed to Worcester to try results with the Tech outfit. The game was fast, and at half time we led by a margin which narrowed considerably after Ken was retired from the game. However, Red t Kenney performed brilliantly enough in the final period to send our team home with a victory. Sharpe was the only one of the Worcester Tech team who was able to get away from our close defense. Ponton College 32; Hotoell 20 B. C. invaded our gym on January 26, and were able to take our boys into camp. Our offensive was slow in getting started, and as a result we did but little scoring. Like all B.

Ken Smith and Red Perry were high scorers while Mooney did the work for Boston College. g L foftn 44; Hotoell 35 St. Johns College of Brooklyn traveled to Lowell and engaged us in the heaviest scoring game of the year.

JMp Cross 48; Hotoell 30 We played our return game with Holy Cross the following week. They were in better form than ever before this season, and so were able to defeat us.

As the teams went onto the floor, it was plain to see that the St. Stephens five would be a creditable one to defeat. They were a fast, accurate-shooting team. However, Textile started off with the whistle and had a basket before their opponents knew that they were in the game. The first period was a lively one, Textile leading by six baskets. The Textile team let up a bit during the second period, feeling that they had a good lead. The second half began with a bang. The St. Stephens team seemed to rally. They worked fast and hard, but failed, the final score being Textile 20, St. Stephens 17. Trotsky deserves much credit, breaking many of the almost successful passes which probably would have resulted in baskets. 138 T HE PICKOUT 1 9 2 4 Snbtbtbual ecorbsi Captain Ken Smith: Too much credit cannot be given Ken for this season ' s work. As high scorer, he has shown the way for the rest of the team. His brilliant, almost phenomenal ability to dribble through opponents ' defense, together with his accurate shooting, have decided many games and earned for him this season ' s honors. As captain, he has led the boys to a successful season. We shall miss Ken in coming years. Ray Farwell: We missed Ray the first half of the season, and were glad to see him back in the line-up. His height, which makes him an ideal center, together with the fine defensive game which he always plays, have made him a necessary part of our combination. Mac McKinstry: Our diminutive forward was back in his old form this season. The games which he played showed he had lost none of his skill or ability to shoot baskets. The injury which removed him from the lineup broke up the original combination, which had so well demonstrated its strength. Red Perry: Red was runner-up for scoring honors again this year This alone should be sufficient proof of his ability, but we must mention the qualities which have brought about these results. His ability and skill in handling the ball and his uncanny eye have made him a power in the basketball court. Red Kenney: Red was one of the Freshmen to play on the Varsity this year. He is what is termed an all-around man, having played center and back on our team. He was the backbone of our defensive system and managed to score enough to win several games for us. Red will be the star of next season ' s team. Leo Supple: Leo was another member of the Freshman class to make good. Despite the handicap of being small, he has showed his ability to play guard and not a few of our opponents have found this out. Leo left college during the season, and so was lost for the last games, but we hope to see him back in the line-up again next year. Red Trotsky: This was Red ' s first and last appearance on the Textile basketball court. He has played a steady, consistent game of basketball, fitting perfectly in the combination, and has played well at all times. His serious accept- ance of responsibility has made him a valuable asset. 139 THE PICK OUT 1924 Frank Burke: Our only regret is that Frank was not with us all season. His appearance in the last games has injected new life into the team, as he plays an excellent game of basketball. He will be one of the mainstays next year. Jack Goldenberg and Bill Smith have acted as substitutes this year. They have both played good basketball when called upon. They are two more men for our next year ' s team, and we shall hear much of them next year. Bill Rivers: Last but not least comes our Manager. Bill has worked hard for the success of our team. The job of manager is one which receives the least praise, although in reality he has the most to do.

Men everywhere! The halls seemed full of them, for it was just before the Freshman parade. Why, oh why, did I ever think of coming to Lowell Textile? Registered at last! — and best of all I ' d seen a girl, — a maiden student in misery. Then came my escape until the next day. The first day of school ! I know I had grown several inches shorter during the night, and was feeling smaller and smaller as 8.45 drew near. The great moment arrived — then from the office came the words, There are five girls here this year. Five wasn ' t many where one saw men, men — and still more men. But what if had been the only girl? What a relief! My first class! One girl, — but many men! True they were Freshmen, and knew no more than I. A look of surprise came over the faces of my classmates when they saw me, --a girl. My courage came back. It might have been worse,— and my first class was over. Since that first day more than one class has come and gone, and this co-ed is still at Textile. I have found again the inches that I lost on that first day of school. I have decided that, after all, Textile is not such a bad place for a girl, and that the students here are ready to help one along her way. 1G0 Jforeign tubentt department America, $ an (Oriental £ tz$ It Those who have traveled in England and America are agreed that numerous and fundamental differences are to be found in those countries. The people on the two sides of the Atlantic not only have a modified spoken language, but also each has his own customs, manners, etiquette -- not to mention political institutions, literature and philosophy. Not infrequently do we hear them acknowledge that they fail to understand each other. If nations like England and America which have a common racial stock and historical background should find so much dissimilarity between them, how much more so should this be true between peoples who possess an independent civilization and cultural development? Indeed Air. Kipling tells us: Oh, East is East, and West is West, — and never the twain shall meet. We may disagree as to the ultimate truth of this statement, yet we cannot deny that it conveys the true fact that there are great divergencies between the two parts of the world. The professional tourists are in the habit of making sweeping generalizations based on limited and superficial observations. The visitor to a new country too often fixes his eyes on things which seem strange and bizarre and loses sight of those which are significant and important. He is apt to regard anything different from his own as a sign of inferiority. An oriental who comes to America is deeply impressed by things which he has never seen before. He marvels at its extensive application of modern sciences to daily life, the wide use of machinery in lieu of animal power. The high sky-scrapers, long subways and fast automatic vehicles excite from the stranger a mixed feeling of wonder and admiration. The material differences between America and countries of the Orient are too obvious to escape even the notice of casual observers. But there are more subtle and important things like temperament, outlook on life, ethical ideas which cannot be so readily detected. The Oriental after several years of residence in this country feels keenly the lack of spirituality in the American life. To him the Americans seem to be so much absorbed in practical affairs that little or no attention is paid to matters concerning the soul. In the East religion permeates all activities of man. The average American, on the other hand, manifests his religious zeal no further than church-going at a fixed time of the week. The lack in one and pervasiveness in the other of religious life make the two peoples fundamentally different from each other. The American people have over- development in one direction -- materialism. They may be compared to a college boy who has an unusually athletic body, but who is deficient intellectually. The inward contentedness of the religious East is something which the materialistic West with all its scientific discoveries and inventions fails to acquire. 161 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 We hope that if the recent controversy in the Episcopal Church produces no further result than to lead the American people to interest in religious thinking, it will make the American life fuller, better balanced and more enjoyable. Jforetgn i tubentg Within the last decade the fame of the Lowell Textile School has been spreading all over the world with astonishing velocity. The enrolment of the school includes not only many students from states other than Massachusetts, but also a large number of them from countries outside of the Union. Its graduates who number thousands, are doing successful work in their respective countries. Indeed, the L. T. S. holds today a distinguished position among the institutions of its kind. To the foreigners it is one of the very best textile schools in this country. Indi a, Japan and China, where textile industry is still in its infancy, yearly send their sons to study and learn at the feet of its erudite and experienced professors. The number of foreign students in the school has increased many fold in the last few years, and if we can judge the future by the past, the number will be still greater in time to come. It is needless in this place to mention the great benefits which technical schools like L. T. S. are doing for this and other countries of the world. Through the un- remitting labor and skill of their teachers and students textile machineries are improved and the output of woolen and cotton goods is greatly increased. As a result people are better clothed. It is impossible to estimate how much they have contributed to the comforts and social well-being of the modern world. There are at present one student from India, one from Japan, and nine from China. Mr. Anant Datar, of the graduating class of 1924 is the only representative from India, who is specializing on the course of Textile Engineering. Among the specials in the school is found Mr. I. Kobay. Prior to his coming to this country, Mr. Kobay was a professor in one of the universities in Tokio. He is paying a special interest on things which will be useful to him afterwards. The majority of foreign students are from China. Every year the Engineering class is always flooded with Chinese students, among whom are, this year, Messrs. K. C. Li, Chester Liu, H. K. Nieh, Clarence Wu, T. C. Wu, L. L. Kuo and Frank Chang. In the Chemistry Department, Messrs. W. P. Chen and C. K. Kao are making their specialization. The foreign students in this school wish to take this opportunity to express their appreciation of and gratitude for the kind help which their American friends here have given them. It is their fervent hope that they may render some service in return for what they have received here. Long live Lowell Textile School!! Frank T. J. Chang 162 Back Row: Kuo, Liu, C. T.

MANAGEMENT OF FRINSTANCE ' Jfrtnsitance ' On the evening of May 4th, 1923, an audience of two thousand persons -- the largest audience ever to witness a Textile show — assembled in the Memorial Auditorium. The event was an epochal one as it was the first dramatic entertain- men t to be staged in the Auditorium. Down by the footlights the orchestra struck up its overture - - beautiful music composed entirely by amateurs. There, leading enthusiastically, fusing his whole personality and energy into the work, was Holley Winkfield. Winkfield! a name to be remembered by Textile students as long as music and dramatics are fostered at the college. The great, red curtain parted and we gazed into the walled garden of a hand- some estate — all canvas, to be sure, and painted expressly for this show. An actor entered --we recognized him at once — and then another and another. They talked, they danced, they cracked jokes, they sang. It was good, and we enjoyed it all. 170 THE PICIOUT 1924 Fowle, the author, had given us a story to follow. Two Textile youths became disgusted with their Steam Course and argued with the faculty that the course was unnecessary. All right. said Charlie, go out and show the world that you ' re well enough educated and we ' ll give you your degrees. Out they went. We followed them through three acts of fun and frolic. At the final curtain, we applauded vociferously and said to our neighbor that it was a gosh blamed good show. As the sound of music fades in our ears and time blurs somewhat the many details, we still remember the captivating beauty and exquisite grace of the leading lady, Ham Brigham. He had won a prize in a beauty contest two nights before; and, if we may be allowed to digress, he had played a good game of baseball that afternoon. These events were trifles in Ham ' s active life. He has been Tex- tile ' s leading lady for four years. The entire cast was good, and much credit is due to them, and to the business management. Taking into consideration the excellent dance afterward, this event was perhaps the biggest Textile has had in years. j8otf)ing Put tfje Srutfr This year ' s show is already under way, with Joshua Miller as business manager. The play is Nothing but the Truth — a former starring vehicle for William Collier — and is sure to please our audience. The cast, headed by Jones and Brigham, appears very promising. The show will be accompanied by a big dance, and there is no reason why this event should not be fully as good as that of last year. 171 Jf ratermtp Social €bentg Ungma 0mega $£1 Hmtofeer May 7, 1923, saw the Eta Chapter well represented at the annual New England Smoker, held at Young ' s Hotel, Boston. This was a stag affair and as usual went over big. As a climax to a great night, special acts were offered, much to the amuse- ment of the men. ©micron $t Alumni banquet The annual Omicron Pi Alumni Banquet, arranged in conjunction with the Textile Alumni Day, was held at the fraternity house on May 11, 1923. Dinner was served by the D. L. Page Co. at seven o ' clock. Following the dinner the annual Alumni Association meeting was held, at which time plans for the coming year were discussed and settled upon. It was gratifying to the active chapter to have so many of the graduate and honorary members present at the annual meeting. The committee, consisting of Jim Savery, Sandy Steele, and Phil Mason, are to be commended on the fine banquet that they put over. Belta Happa $f 1923 banquet About two hundred alumni and members of the Beta chapter of the Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity attended the annual banquet held on the evening of May 11th at the ever popular Marie ' s. This event was one of the big successes of the season, due principally to the large presence of the alumni members. The evening started off with the feed, which was another one of the type fit for the king, and one which all enjoyed to the limit. Bill Parkis was the toastmaster of the event, and his witty remarks were most appropriate for the occasion. Will called on a number of the alumni, who responded with various remarks. After the food was disposed with, the decks were cleared for action, and several entertainers from Keith ' s made time fly fast. Musical and vocal selections by the fraternity talent assisted by group singing, brought the annual affair to a memorable close. The committee consisted of Campbell, Cannell, Villeneuve, Rivers and Goller. The Delta Kappa Phi fraternity was also well represented at the alumni reunion thr ollowing day at the school. 172 T HE PICKOUT 1 9 2 4 Belta Happa $fn Jllap %)omc Partp The Beta Chapter of the Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity held its second success- ful house party of the year on the first week-end of May, 1923. The house was thrown open to the reception of the guests on Friday afternoon and later the same afternoon the guests and members attended the ball game with the University of Vermont at the Textile Campus. The local collegians seemed to be off form that afternoon and succumbed to the splendid pitching of Vermont ' s mound men; never- theless, the contest was fully enjoyed. In the evening the house party participants attended F ' rinstance, last year ' s musical comedy, at the Lowell Memorial Auditorium. Here again, every- body enjoyed the entertainment. Several of the D. K. members were in the show and their lady friends gave them a good hand after their numbers. After the performance, general dancing was enjoyed until the wee hours of the next morning. Saturday morning the guests were escorted through the school buildings, and the various steps in the industry were pointed out to them. Saturday afternoon a theatre party was enjoyed at Keith ' s. The same evening we adjourned to the fraternity dance at the Vesper Boat House. The hall was neatly decorated with the fraternity colors and Japanese lanterns. Skip Savage and his musicians helped make the evening a happy one. During the week-end the house was turned over to the girls. Mr. and Mrs. Murray Pratt of Lowell chaperoned the party. Hugma mega pst ouge Partp Eta Chapter held its second house party of the year on May 18th, 19th, and 20th, 1923. Quite a few alumni were present. The party opened with an affair on Friday night at the Suntaug Inn, Lynn, Mass. Saturday afternoon the party attended Keith ' s. That evening an informal dance was held at the fraternity house. Appropriate favors were given to the matron and girls. The girls departed Sunday, after voting the week-end a perfect success. The committee in charge was composed of Burger, Weinstein and Trotsky. iiugma 0mega ;Psi jfugfymm Hmtofeer Sigma Omega Psi started its social season with its annual Freshman Smoker ' on November 6, 1923. Quite a few Freshmen were present, and needless to say, all had a great time. Food and smokes were plentiful, and the usual souvenirs given. Mr. Barney Perlmutter gave a talk on the value of fraternities. The party broke up in the small hours of the morning. 173 THE PICKOUT 1924 0mtcron $t ouse $artp The week-end of November 16th, 17th, and 18th, was a very enjoyable one for the Omicron Pi Fraternity. It was the occasion of the first house party of the school year and was considered as one of the most successful of many such parties that the fraternity has run. On the evening of the 16th, after an enjoyable dinner at the house, the couples adjourned to the Vesper Boat Club, where a dance was held, the music being fur- nished by the Oak Manor Orchestra of Melrose. Mr. and Mrs. Royal P. White and Professor and Mrs. Louis A. Olney acted as chaperons at the dance. Saturday afternoon a fine football game was witnessed between Textile and the New London Coastguard Academy on the Textile campus, and that evening an unusually good show was enjoyed at Keith ' s. Sunday, after a rather late arising, dinner was served at the fraternity house; and late that afternoon, the party broke up, greatly to the regret of everybody. The committee, consisting of Dingbat Gordon, Kewpie Hall, and Nick Carter, were fortunate in securing Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Ostburg of Lowell as chap- erons for the party. ( micron $t ifresrtjman Hmtofeer The first Freshman Smoker of the year was held by Omicron Pi Fraternity at the chapter house on Pawtucket Street. The active chapter entertained upwards of one hundred guests, including members of the Faculty and Freshmen. Keith ' s Agency of Boston furnished a lively entertainment. President Eames gave a very interesting talk to the Fresh- men on the relation of the fraternities to the school and its activities. A buffet lunch was served; and the remainder of the evening was spent in card playing, smoke talks and in singing the latest popular music. $f)t $£t jfrcgfjman Smoker The first event on the social side of the calendar for the year 1923-24 was the annual Freshman smoker. The smoker was held on the night of December 5th, at the chapter house on Mt. Washington Street. Without doubt this smoker was the most successful one held in recent years. Fully seventy -five Freshmen and members of the faculty were present. Ample entertainment was provided in the form of two male dancers from Lawrence who gave a fine exhibition of the soft shoe art. There was also a ballad singer who did some good work. The star features of the evening, 174 THE PICK OUT 19 24 however, were two young ladies from the White bureau in Boston. Their songs and dancing received such tremendous applause that it was with difficulty that Guy Harmon, president of the fraternity, was able to quiet the guests long enough to speak a few words of welcome and announce the serving of the eats. At this time four auto loads of alumni from the Boston alumni chapter came trooping into the chapter house to assist in the merrymaking. After the eats the young ladies were persuaded to appear for another encore. The evening ended with several games of hot hand; and for the less venturesome, bridge held sway. The committee in charge were Hindle, Boone, Thomas, and Robinson. Belta Eappa $l)t Smoker The last of the interfraternity freshman smokers was held at the Beta chapter house of the Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity, on the evening of December the twelfth. The early part of the evening was given over to the reception of the guests, who were also conducted through the house. About nine o ' clock, the program of the evening commenced, with an address of welcome by Maurice Villeneuve, the presiding officer. Charles H. Eames, President of the Lowell Textile School, was among the honored guests of the even- ing, and gave an interesting talk on the fraternities in general. Several entertainers from a prominent entertainment bureau in Boston, made things merry with their numbers. Joe Donovan and Ev. Willey made a big hit with their vocal and piano numbers. After the scheduled entertainment, all joined in and group singing was enjoyed. Souvenirs consisting of leather cigarette cases, suitably engraved in gold, and filled with the necessary contents, were distributed to all present. Refreshments of sandwiches, coffee, cider, ices and other delicacies were then served, and received their usual warm reception. About midnight the party began to break up, but some played cards and talked until early the following morning, thus bringing to a happy conclusion the last of the freshman smokers for the year. The committee in charge consisted of Beck, Burmon, Kennedy and Swain. ( micron $t Cftrigtmas; GDree ' Twas the night before the start of the Christmas vacation, and everybody at the Omicron Pi House was expectantly waiting for Santa who finally appeared in the person of Walt Holt, appropriately costumed for the occasion. 175 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 The boys were well remembered with many gifts of a varied nature. At the close of the presentation, eats were served to the crowd, who apparently apper- ciated them as much or more than they did the presents bestowed upon them. Cfjristma at $f)i $st ' Twas the night before Christinas (vacation) and all through Gamma chapter house not a creature was stirring — not even a mouse. The main reason for this state of affairs being that most of the members were attending the Santa Claus party at Delta Kappa Phi House, to which the members of that fraternity had very kindly invited us. Many faculty members were present and joined heartily in the fun as the unique but appropriate gifts were handed out. Even President Harmon of Phi Psi was not forgotten when President Yilleneuve presented him with a storky looking bird, to which was attached an appropriate verse. g anta Clau digits! Belta Eappa $i)i The annual Christmas tree and party of the Beta Chapter was held on Decem- ber 20th, at the chapter house, 115 Mount Vernon street. Big Bill Rivers, was the Kris Kringle for the affair and he lost no time in distributing the gifts. Many good laughs accompanied the gifts some received, and all present were well remembered. A large number of the faculty were present and enjoyed the fun like the rest. All joined in lauding the event a success, and brought the affair to a happy ending with a mob scene around the piano, with Zez Confrey on duty. i tgma mega P$t Contention On December 27th, 28th, and 29th, Sigma Omega Psi held its annual conven- tion. This year the affair was held in Boston. Throughout the convention Eta Chapter was well represented. The affair started with a get-together smoker on Thursday night, at Young ' s Hotel. This started the ball rolling. On Friday afternoon, a tea dansant was staged at the Copley Plaza. That evening the party attended a banquet at Young ' s Hotel. The end came on Saturday night with a ball at the Hotel Somerset. After the dance, everyone went to a downtown restaurant, where a light lunch was served. The affair was a huge success, and proved a fitting finale to a year of real progress. 176 THE IMCKOl ' T 19 24 ( microti $t $$qu z artp The Interfraternity Dance held on February the 8th, gave Omicron Pi a wel- come opportunity to run one of its usually successful house parties. The dance, which was one of the most successful parties which the Council has run, was en- joyed by everyone. The music was furnished by Shepard ' s Colonial Orchestra of Boston. Upon the return to the house, a light lunch was served and at a late hour the house was turned over to the girls. Saturday afternoon the entire party attended Keith ' s and that evening a majority of the couples spent the time tobogganing at the Mount Pleasant Coun- try Club, where this sport takes on entirely new thrills. The remainder of the party passed the evening playing bridge at the Fraternity House. Sunday arrived all too soon, and was marred only by the thought that the party was soon to break up. An excellent dinner was enjoyed, followed later by an afternoon tea. The various couples then took their departure — and so brought the party to a close. The committee, consisting of Walt Martin, Phil Mason, and Rip Lundgren, were to be congratulated on securing Mr. and Mrs. Dustin Hamblet of Lowell as chaperons. Phi Psi held its first house party over the week-end of February 8th, 9th and 10th, and many of the members availed themselves of the opportunity to entertain their young lady friends. The chapter house was turned over to a goodly number of out-of-town school girls before dinner Friday evening. The main feature of the party was the dance given at Colonial Hall by the Interfraternity Council. The music, eats and at- tendance were all that could be desired. Saturday was given over to sleep and then a theater party in the afternoon at Keith ' s. In the evening the entire party motored to Melrose where they danced at Oak Manor, at the conclusion of which they journeyed on to Boston to find some welcome eats at Child ' s. Sunday a tea was tendered the members and their guests at the home of the Misses Holt in Andover. If the spring house party only proves half as successful as this one just passed, then it will be acclaimed a great success. Belta appa $f)t 1924 ?£ciuge $artp The week-end of February the third, the Beta Chapter held its first house party of the year at the chapter house, 115 Mount Vernon street. From Friday afternoon until the following Sunday night, the gentlemen 177 T HE PICKOU T 19 2 4 turned over the house to the lady guests. Friday evening, the party attended the interfraternity dance at Colonial Hall and enjoyed the affair to the limit. The hall was appropriately decorated with the fraternity banners and colors, which were greatly strengthened in effect by the white and gold draperies laden with clinging vines. Perley Breed ' s musicians from Boston furnished enjoyable music for dancing. After the dance, all adjourned to the fraternity house, where a buffet lunch was served and a good time enjoyed un til early in the morning. The following morning, after an early breakfast, the guests were conducted through the Lowell Textile School. Saturday afternoon dancing was enjoyed at the house, and in the evening the entertainment at Keith ' s, followed by several hours ' good time at the house, brought the second day to a happy close. Sunday afternoon the girls departed for their respective homes, with unanimous praises for the party. Ten girls from out of town, with Miss Galvin and Miss Gleason, both of Dor- chester, as chaperons, were the guests. Beck, Donovan, Rivers and Gerrits were on the committee in charge.

The contest ended in a blaze of glory. That is, we burned all the manuscripts submitted, both of them. The judges could hardly decide which of the two deserved the booby prize. The prize was awarded to Miss Helene Babbette La Caste, of the class of 1924. The decision was given on origin- ality of composition, clarity of thought, and interest of subject. We print below the winning story and feel sure that our readers will concur with our judges in recog- nizing its extraordinary worth. TRAPPED! LGH! Prize Story — $50,000 It was a bright June day in western Russia. Our story however, is staged in the wilds of New York City, in November, where all was raining, snowing, and hailing. Some weather! A sinister looking man, muffled in a high silk hat, stepped stealthily from a taxi in front of number 23 ! 23 ! 23 ! Skidoo Avenue, near the famous Riverside Drive. He paid the driver with an ugly leer and tip— - toed care- fully up to the very front door itself (it was a bright June day in western Russia). 1 Inside all was dark and gloomy. The chairs were draped in sheets, and horse- blankets covered the windows, rendering all black and impervious. The man went about his business in a professional manner. He completely rifled all the hidden safes, and came at last to the drawing room. He was easily drawn there by some hypnotizing, mesmerizing influence. It was indeed the drawing-room. Here all the chairs were draped with counterpanes and the windows were trimmed with sashes, done in Graeco-Roman stripes. Upon the sofa lay the form of a sleeping girl. When the thief saw her he gave a start, and started noiselessly to remove the rings from her fingers, ears and nose. As he was doing so she naturally sneezed and awoke with a start. 2 Who are you? she cried. What are you doing? Where do you come from, and how do you do? 3 I am Archibald the Apartment Abode Apache, he quothed in a sepulchral tone, and I am removing your ear-ring. 4 Harold, she cried, Save me from this robber! The front door opened and Harold 5 entered. He peered about in the gloom, and finally his eye hit upon the object of his search. This floored the burglar, but nevertheless he closed in for the struggle, and with double sight and wonderful presence of mind he picked up a statue of Venus de Milo and hurled it headlong at the newcomer. Harold fell upon the box of candy which he was bringing to his betrothed with a sickly grunt, murmuring, Ethel — farewell. I am going to the land of the midnight sun, where the heliotropes grow and the rabbits run, where 194 THE PICKOUT 19 24 the day is as long as the month of June, where the cuckoo clock sings its sweet, low tune, and the lion lies down with the lamb. I am going to the land of forget-me- nots, where the rooster lays his eggs of gold, the love of a maid is free and bold, and you just don ' t give a — G All this time the chocolates were running with Harold ' s weight. 7 Ethel, with a cry of fear, rushed to the prostrate form, lying cold and still on the box of candy. You have killed him, she cried, noticing the deep dent in his Adam ' s apple. Then suddenly espying the running candy, she screamed and fell unconscious upon the bonbons. Ha, chuckled the villain, he-he, o-oh, ugh, ugh. Hold ' em Yale. Harold could stand this no further. Raising himself with a mighty effort on one elbow he emitted a shrill whistle. Instantly (it was a bright June day in western Russia) 8 the counterpanes fell from the chairs and in each sat a stalwart member of the New York fare department. Harold arose and, gathering Ethel in his arms, pointed at the cowering thief. ' You thought to murder me in cold blood and steal my Ethel, did you, you cold-blooded ghastly villain, you, you, you! My friend, you may now see how you enjoy parking space at Sing Sing. Firemen, do your d uty, put him out! ' ' Never shall Sing Sing see my insides or hear my voice, said the baffled Archibald. I may be trapped, but see how a villain dies! And drawing his Eversharp from his pocket he plunged it into his left eyebrow. Thus was Archi- bald the Apartment Abode Apache, expunged. Fireman, save my child. It was a bright June day in western Russia. EDITORS NOTES ' Note the suspense created by this masterful parenthesis. 2 Notice the starts, three of them. Here the story takes a decidedly startling turn. 3 This last question seems irrelevant, immaterial and incompetent, but the author assured us that whenever a burglar is discovered holding the nose of a pretty girl she asks any question she pleases. We suggested instead, Will you have another cup of tea? but the author said that there were no cups in the house, for all the chinaware had been stored away for the winter. 4 He wasn ' t. It was her nose ring, but the author refused to change it. He said we should claim it to be a typographical error. 5 This is the hero of the story. 6 Cuss. 7 The chocolates were 49c a pound, hence the explanation. s This is remarkable. Our author won the prize on this suspense de Luxe. S. K. Prof. Barker (during lecture)- Will the gentleman asleep in the rear of the room kindly come down front where I can keep my eye on him. So Ziock, Mac, Ken, and Marimba got up and started for the front of the room. 195 THE PICKOUT 1924 Basket Bawl Heinie Bachmann, returning from a hunting expedition, was met by a friend, who, noting the flatness of his game bag, said tauntingly: Well, I see you ' ve been hunting. The luckless hunter nodded. Did you shoot anything? persisted the friend. Veil, was the reply, I shot my dawg. Shot your dog? asked the friend in amazement. Was he mad? Veil, he vasn ' t so plame pleased, retorted Heinie. A young matron in Nashua was complaining to her dairyman. Farmer Lewis, about the quality of the milk. Short of grass feed, ma ' am, short of grass feed at this time of year, replied Farmer Lewis jocularly. Bless my soul, ma ' am, them cows of mine are just as sorry about it as I am. I often stands and watches them cryin ' , regular cryin ' , ma ' am, because they feels that their milk don ' t do them credit. You don ' t believe it? I can easily credit your statement, said the young woman, but in the future I wish you ' d see that the cows don ' t drop their tears into MY can. Hindle: Gimme a chicken! Butcher — Do you wanna pullet? Hindle — No, I wanna carry it. Brigham — What is a theorist? Ted Thomas - - A theorist, my man, is a person who thinks he is learning to swim by sitting on the bank watching a frog. 196 Til E PIC KOUT 19 24 Robbie (to head waiter) - Here, sir, this clumsy fellow has spilled half of my cup of tea down my hack. Steele-- Bring the gentleman a full cup of tea instantly. Olson {Baseball captain) - How would you like to sign up with me for a life game? She -- I ' m agreeable. Where ' s the diamond? Lewis - I gave my girl an engagement ring the other day, but she noticed a flaw in the diamond. I thought love was blind. Can you explain this? Rip — Certainly, ya boob. Love isn ' t stone blind. Sports Feldstein - Is it true that Doug. Fairbanks hurt himself when he fell down that well? Datar - Yes, he came within an inch of kicking the bucket. Miss Robinson - We girls are thinking of getting up a baseball team. Can you think of a name for us to give it? Steve Toupin — Call it the ' Femi-nine ' ! Gerrits — Mr. Dow, I ' m writing a story and am stuck for a climax. I want the heroine to go to the kitchen door and see something terrible, but I can ' t think just what. Can you help me out? James G. — Let her see the kitchen sink. 197 THE PICKOUT 1924 Phil Mason was about to start shaving. He wrote to a prominent cutlery firm as follows: Dear Sir: - - Please send me one of your best razors, for which I enclosed money order for three dollars. P. S. I have forgotten the money order for three dollars; but no doubt a firm of your standing will send one. This is what he received : We beg to acknowledge your esteemed order, and take pleasure in sending the razor, which we trust you will like. P. S. We have forgotten the razor, but no doubt a fellow with your cheek won ' t need one. EXAM. FISIKAL KEMISTRY DR. CHAPIN Note: No cribbing allowed. If caught, 1% is taken off your final mark.

The course they Took was Cotton. The Big Man was an Athlete and the Little Man a Scholar.- It was not Long before the college recognised the prowess Athletically of the Big Man; but the Small Man was Unnoticed. So it came About in the Marks that the Big Alan just barely passed and the Small Man had High Honors. When the Aledal was to be awarded. Our President called the Little Man to his office and said, Are you Little Man? and Little Man replied, Yes, sir, I am, in the best Dow English. ' You, said Our President, are to be awarded the Medal, so be prepared. (Also the Little Man was a Boy Scout and Our President gave him the Tenderfoot grip.) Big Man was called to Our President ' s office, and Our President knew the Big Man, which seems to bring out a point because Our President didn ' t know Little Man. Big Man, said Our President, You will have to Work Hard to graduate. I get you, said Big Man, like the Warrior he was. They, the Big Man and the Little Man, Graduated; and they Stepped forth into the World. In the Trunks of Little Man were books and the Trunks of Big Man contained Sweaters and Trophies won on the Field of Sport. Soft Music. (Years Hence.) Picture Big Man at a Big Desk, with a Big Position and Big Salary, a Jolly, Hail, Well Met, Big Alan and prosperous. Picture Little Alan selling Cravattes in a furnishing store with the tarnished Medal on his fob. He had a little job, little pay and was little recognized. Moral: In 2899 B. G. Aesop said, A Book in the Brain is Worth Three in a Trunk. Jeff AIiller — I ' ve just been left a lot of money and want to invest it. What is the safest thing in which to invest? Herbie — Yeast. It ' s bound to rise. Andover Press — Is Fowle particular? Bailey - Hell, yes ! He raves if he finds a period upside down. The great problem of the day is: Where was Bill Villa when they called the roll at the A. S. M. E. convention? There happened to have been a dance downstairs — but of course that hasn ' t anything to do with it. Mr. Schmidt - And now, men, the simple idea of gilling is to paralyze the fibers. 199 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 Barber — Shall I go over it again. Sir? Victim — No, I heard it all the first time. Al. Johnson — Mr. Dow, I have a great ambition to make money from my pen, but I ' m not a good writer. Can you offer any helpful suggestions? J. Guthrie — Raise pigs. THE GREAT HUNTER AND TRAPPER The great hunter and trapper, Prof. Beattie, was wending his weary way home- ward through the snow. The day was very cold, and as he drew his fur hat more tightly over his head, he thought of the enjoyment he was to have in the evening, with his feet in front of the fire, a book in his hand, and his corncob pipe in his mouth. He was also planning how to spend some of his money in the spring. He hunted birds for their tail feathers and the shooting had been remarkably good. Just as he got within half a mile from home he heard, or thought he heard, a cry for help. He stopped and listened, but hearing nothing at the time, started on again. Then came the cry again. He went back and started to look around. He noticed a slight movement among the bushes at his right. He went over to examine more closely and discovered there a strange creature. Save me, it cried. I am an ' H ' ion. Some physical chemists snatched me away from my beloved oxygen. I escaped, however, and wandered out here. Upon saying this, the H ion heaved a great sigh and then breathed no more. Then big-hearted Frederick took upon himself the vow to protect and give aid to all helpless and homeless H ions. From that time on he has done his best to keep his vow. As a reminder of this pledge he pickled the H ion in alcohol and keeps it on his desk as a paper weight. Caution: — Any person finding a Physical Chemistry book should immediate- ly destroy same. Do not try to absorb contents — as the results will be fatal. 200 THE PICK OUT 1924 THE BOOK OF JERIKUK Chapter I. 1. Now it came to pass in the nineteenth year of his life, in the ninth month, in the twenty-fourth day of the month, that Jerekuk, son of Jechoahaz, he and all his trunks and family came against Lowell; yea, verily, by the Boston and Maine came he: and, behold, there was a mighty sign from heaven, for the train was but two hours late. 2. And he came unto a new dwelling in a strange land and the name thereof was Keefes. 3. Now in this land were many Freshmen and the land was given unto freshness. 4. And there Jerekuk abode, and got unto himself many banners, with divers inscriptions thereon, and many daring works of art wherewith to adorn the walls of his dwelling place; yea, verily, from La Vie and the Police Gazette did he get them all. 5. On the next day ventured he forth to the office and there a great welcome was given unto him by his scribes and elders, who waited for him, with mighty paddles did they wait for him. 6. From the office came he out, and he was made to remove his shoes, and to turn his coat wrong side out and to form in line with other members of his clan. 7. Verily th e elders did make him parade to Merrimack square; yea, verily, to the very heart of the square went he, and did there climb the clock and make a speech. 8. And on the way he was sorely smitten with the paddles, and also with tomatoes was he smitten mighty smotes. 9. And upon the third day of his sojourn Jerekuk did buy his radiator; for the sum of five shekels bought he it. 10. But Jerekuk wot not what he dideth. 11. And at the Coop many books bought he, of divers colors, red, yellow, blue and green. 12. And before many days were spent he did learn the mysteries of these books and did cast them to one side to partake of Keith ' s. 13. And on the fourth hour of each day had he English, with diverse themes to write, and many score rules to learn, and the teaching of the English tongue, from the lips of Jimmy Dow heard he it. 14. Then at the end of his first five weeks he did have exams; yea, verily, many exams did he enter into, and sign his name and walketh out. 15. Many F ' s did he receive on his card and he knew no more about his sub- jects than did the birds that twitter in the forest. 16. And it came to pass when the success of Jerekuk was reported in his former dwelling place, lo, there was great lamentation, and the parents of Jerekuk did 201 THE PICKOUT 1924 prepare to welcome him when he should return, yea, his old man did get himself a mighty paddle wherewith to make his welcome warm. 17. Now on his second five weeks great resolves made he, that he should par- take of these books and learneth the knowledge of his elders. 18. But again did he cast them aside, for he loved the fair daughters of Eve. 19. And on the next examinations he wrote, but only his name; and more F ' s than before appeared on his card. Chaiper II. 1. And it came to pass in the month of Chislen, when the snow was upon the mountains and winter had begun, that Jerekuk did go out from the land where he was and did journey to the land whither he had come, unto the center of the uni- verse about which revolve the heavens and earth, yea, even unto Boston. 2. And the heart of Jerekuk was filled with a mighty gladness; and the natives of that city did marvel at the speech of Jerekuk and at his learning. 3. For in his mind were many words which no dictionary hath seen. 4. And Jerekuk did go into society and attended the dansant and seeth the Show of Wonders, and the heart of Jerekuk took delight in the beauty of the daughters of the land. 5. But in society Jerekuk did make many woeful breaks, wherefore he forsook society and tore himself from the bosom of his family, for he was seized with a great longing in his heart. 6. And Jerekuk did mount into his chariot, yea, into his Lizzie of tin mounted he and did heave a line of great weight to the maidens. 7. But the time of his return was at hand; wherefore Jerekuk did rend his hair and gnash his teeth, for he had fallen for a fair eater-of -beans. 8. And when he returneth the snow lay upon the ground in great numbers, whereat Jerekuk did remain much in his dwelling-place and smoketh the Toastie and rolleth the bones. 9. But he did betake himself daily unto the house of torture and did pull mightily at the chest weights and swang the clubs so that he did crack himself oft upon the gonk. 10. And it came to pass that the end of the first month came around and the end of the first term was at hand. 11. And exams were handed unto Jerekuk, and he marvelled much, but wrote little; from the words of the prophet, much is asked, but little is answered. 12. And to each exam came its mark. 13. And when his marks were manifested unto Jerekuk he did quake with terror, remembering the paddle of his father. 2 02 THE PICKOUT 19 2 4 Chapter III. I. Now it came to pass that Jerekuk did wax careless, for the voice of winter called unto him and he did answer. L 2. And Jerekuk did those things which were evil in the sight of the scribes and did read Snappy Stories and chew gum even in the tabernacle. 4. And Jerekuk left undone those things which he ought to have done, and did those things which he ought not to have done, and there was no health in him. 5. And he waxed yet more careless and did yield to temptation. 6. For divers mutterings would eke forth from his window. 7. And now he would say, I haveth a full house, and anon, Come, O seven, yea, come ye also eleven. 8. But the scribes and elders did get on to Jerekuk and did learn his ways. 9. Wherefore was much debating in the meeting place of the scribes and elders. 10. And there the fate of Jerekuk was decided, and a grievous fate it was. II. And on the following day Jerekuk did receive a mighty summons in the mail. 12. And he went into the office and stood before the Presence. 13. And the Presence looked long on Jerekuk and opened his mouth and spake: 11. O Jerekuk, it hath been found in the councils of the mighty that thy services are no longer necessary in this place. 15. Therefore get thee hence to another land, and if thou art wanting in shekels for the journey, I, even I, will lend a sum unto thee. 16. And Jerekuk did return sadly to his dwelling place and packed his trunk and got him gone. 17. But his knees shook beneath him for his old man could wield mightily the paddle; there was weeping and gnashing of teeth. 18. And Jerekuk was seen no more in that land. S. K. Donovan — Professor, if I graduate next June, should I become a baker? Pop Olney — Not unless you knead the dough. Peterson-- I say, Mr. Editor, you must have finished reading my manu- script by this time. How did you like it? Fowle - I finished the last paragraph with intense pleasure. Ryan — A friend of mine committed suicide this morning. Bullard — What in hell! Ryan — Yes, probably by this time. 203 THE PICKOUT 1924 Whitey — My hair is becoming dark. I ' m so melancholy. What shall I do? Rivers — Dye, of course. Hathorne - - The radio is a great invention. You can sit in your own home and hear Eddie Barker lecture. Babigan - - Yes, and just think, you can turn a little knob and shut him right off. Win (thinking of basketball) — Do you like indoor sports? Snoopy — Yes, if they always bring candy. I Homeward Bound Bill - I was talking to your girl yesterday. Ham — Are you sure you were doing the talking? Bill— Yes. Ham — Then it wasn ' t my girl. 20i THE PICKOUT 1924 Stick ' em up, kid, ordered the thug. Where you think you ' re goin ' ? Home, murmured the student. Where from? Date. Who with? Girl in Lawrence. Here, friend, take this five-dollar hill. Robbie-- So you have never attended college? Red — No, I got my knowledge through the mail. Robbie — I see. Red -- Yes. Jones-- Don ' t you think my piano playing is rich with feeling? Bored Deb — You remind me of Paderewski. J. -- Yes? B. D. — Uh huh, you both use your hands. Al — How do you know Ken is in love? Duggard - What else would make a man so absent-minded that he put his dirty shirt to bed and then jumped down the clothes chute? THE PERFECT COLLEGE YOUTH Never carries seven text-books around the building. Never has his room marred with class schedules or charts. Always wakes his room-mate in the morning. Does not insist on singing bass, tenor, or otherwise. Does not praise his home town. Never mentions Bananas. Never asks if the mail has been around nor boasts the number of letters he received, etc. Buys a Pickout. Pays no attention to the editorials in the Text. Never laughs at jokes about the B. M. Is not always telling confidentially of his various women. Never fails you on a blind drag. Does not feel it necessary to glide passionately around the room when the Yictrola is playing. Has read The Plastic Age but is through talking about it. Never brags about his marks. Finally flunks out. 205 EI The editorial board fully realizes that its book is not perfect — but, if we may be allowed to say so, neither is the student who reads it. Tolerance, as Eddie Barker will tell you, is a necessary quality in everyone. We have endeavored to publish a book which will be a credit to the college it represents and which will be cherished as a souvenir by those who compose the student body of today. If we have done that, we are contented. Since the last issue of the PlCkout, very few innovations have appeared at Textile. We are still known to the world as Lowell Textile School, we have no dormitories, the student assembly has not been introduced, Upstream has not been revived. These facts are, of course, disappointing; but we have advanced some- what in other directions . On September 20, 1923, we were registered as an approved school of engineering by the New York State Department of Education — one of the strictest bodies in the country. This is one more honor for Textile, and of a type to which we are happily becoming accustomed. During the past seasons, we have attained a rather enviable standing in the field of athletics, and our reputation for socials and dramatics has continued to improve. The quality of the Freshman class seems high, and the future looms up bright and sparkling. If we were to leave one recommendation for Textile, it would be the establish- ment of a student assembly or chapel. This is our crying need. Such an institu- tion would be the source of any other improvement one can name. Every student has his own ideas for the betterment of the college, and here would be his opportun- ity to voice them. The meetings should occur at regular intervals in order that students might know when to expect them and be able to plan for them. They should be common in order that students might grow accustomed to them and feel at ease while speaking in them. A student assembly would be a leap forward in the progress of Textile. 200 . gbijertisiement 207 a pg! ?

This is accomplished by a mechanical hand swing, the swing motion taking place while the tenter chain is stationary. From this it can be seen that the vibratory action is entirely independent of the tenter chain. As a matter of fact within ceitain limits any number of breaks per minute can be had regardless of the yard speed per minute. The new Universal Tenter is entirely push button controlled, there being control stations at each end of the machines. Better Tenteiing is our booklet describing the new Universal Tenter.

We also receive worsted yarn on jackspools, dye it on our special perforated dyeing spools and return it to you on the original jackspools. The Franklin Process eliminates skeins and long chains, thus reducing yarn waste to a negligible quantity. This saving is particularly important in the dyeing of fine count yarns. Here also we can save you considerable money in the cost of actual dyeing. OUR YARN DEPARTMENT can afford you every facility for purchasing your gray yarn requirements through us if you so desire.

The other three are sheer WASTE. They leak out or throw off — dripping and spattering all over the machinery and causing damage to goods in process. Progressive mills no longer tolerate this condition — they use the drip-less, waste-less, spot-less lubricant — -viWL TBAOE MARK r V , ; RECI ERED IN NONffllBDOIL UNITED STATES t- VjX- ' i PATENT OfEiCt NON-FLUID OIL actually overcomes all WASTE — it stays in bearings instead of leaking and wasting away. For this reason it prevents costly stains on goods in process, provides better and cleaner lubrication than liquid oil, and saves time as well as lubricant.
